I weighed in too!! My scale was jumping all over the place. Finally, I hoped on and took whatever it said (which wasn't the lowest it was showing or the highest).
295.8! That's a loss of 7.6 lbs! Now to keep it going!!
Today is finally D Day....and I weighed..... Boy that sure was depressing...BUT..I am also excited because I CAN DO THIS...I think I can?...I KNOW I CAN..It will be difficult but I CAN DO IT!!..One day at a time..one goal at a time.
Goal for first 3 weeks (21 days)...Practice Contious Eating..I can eat anything!..EXCEPT absolutely NO overeating!..In my mind this in NORMAL PERSON eating!
Started my morning off with a pitcher of ice water with a fresh squeezed lemon (good for the liver). I AM SOOO EXCITED!...can we say motivated...yes we can...
Wow, Sandi, I'm so glad for you! You are an inspiration to me -- Jacob, I promise you makes me tear up, because I've promised my daughter that I'll be here when she has kids. My mother wasn't, and I know how hard that is.
I am down 3.5 lbs this week -- 260, only 100 lbs to go.

The only problem with starting at 290 is that it's going to take me forever to get to Onederland!

moer than 2 lbs a week consistantly isn't healthy! you are losing muscle then, not fat. it's ok when you're starting out and losing water wight, or ocassionally, but you can't expect to take it at 5lbs a week forever. be THRILLED about the 3!
gonzostar...I will certainly take your advice. I guess I have to have more patience. Sometimes it seems like I ballooned up overnight even though I know that isn't true. I still can't believe I am losing any weight and eating fat. It's unbelievable!
I'm down a pound or two. The scale says 293.5, but I'm counting it as 293. I understand about the scale being all over the place. I don't count a weight until I get three of that weight on the scale. /sigh
Well I was at the doctors yesterday and they weighed me and it said that I wiegh 3lbs less. So that is good, but I have to get to curves and check on their scales. So I'll report later,
