What's the contest? Most lbs lost, most percentage lost? I'm confused, but that might be because I spend all day with a 2 yr old and you all are adults.

Seems like a good idea to me

01/15/10: 189 Starting Weight
01/22/10: 186.4 (-2.6)
01/29/10: 182.6 (-3.8/6.4)
02/05/10: 180.6 (-2/8.4), technically this is not accurate since I am up today due to TOM, so I am using yesterday's weight.
02/12/10:183.6 (+3/5.4)
02/19/10:178 (-5.6/11)
02/26/10: 176.4 (-1.6/12.6)
03/05/10: 177.6 (+1.2/-11.4) TOM again, that's ok, I'm just thankful the weight loss seems to be regulating my cycle

Essa415, purplecrush glad to see that you had good weekends. Congrats to you purplecrush on the 3.4lbs! whoo hoo!

My weekend was by far the best start I could get! I managed to start a regular exercise program (4 mile watp) daily and went to the store and managed to come out with only healthy things! I didn't even go down the aisle with the chips and chocolates (which is the first place I use to go!). So needless to say things are looking up.....I've also been cheating by looking at the scale so I think that I'll have a good weight loss when weigh-in rolls around!

I always "cheat" by stepping on the scale during the week. It helps me know whats going on and gives me motivation when I am down! Good job with skipping the junk aisle! Thats still hard for me! I dont take my kids to the store anymore with me...I end up buying unhealthy stuff for "them" and I will usually eat it!! Keep up the 4 mile walk! Thats awesome!

Oh I do the same thing. We have a really nice scale at work so I weigh in first thing when I come in in the morning. Its frustrating when your weight fluxuates like .8 lbs up and down over the course of the week, but as long as its down at the official weigh in is all that counts.

I got like 10 hours of sleep last night and made it to the gym again this morning, I sadly hadn't been there in literally months so its good to be back
