Default Weekly Weigh In 10/18 - 10/24

Good Morning All !!
Hope everyone had a good weekend! Thought I'd get us started weighing this morning.
--As for me, well, I was hoping to be in ONEderlad this morning, but that last pesky pound is hanging on for dear life. I weighed in at 200, for a loss of 1 pound this week. I really need to kick things up a notch this week! I feel like if I can finally get over that hump, I'll be inspired to work really hard to keep going. I'll be there by next Monday if it kills me!

How did you all do??

Down 2 to 229. Not bad, but I was hoping for more, as I was a full two pounds lighter yesterday (?). Ahh, the mysteries of water weight.

Amy Jo, you'll get there! I'm getting my toasting hand ready!!!

Hello, everyone! First of all, congratulations to both Amy Jo and Jennifer on your losses -- the only thing I can safely predict about any loss is that I wish it had been more! I think you're both doing SO well, and the key is that you're both steadily progressing towards your goals. Seriously, great jobs, you guys!

As for me, well that's another story altogether. I'd let my calories slip a little too high upwards, thinking that with all my exercise it would be ok, but you know, that was just not the case! I was showing minimal losses (like a pound a week -- something, but not what it could have been if I'd been putting in full effort.) so I was down to 216, just a pound away from my mini-goal. THEN I went away for a 3-day weekend and, despite great intentions to remain almost entirely on plan, I did just exactly the opposite and went OFF! I'm not going to burst into full-blown Food Porn (capital F, capital P) here, but suffice to say I made the off-plan choice most of the time . After that free-for-all, I returned to the numbers 2 - 2 - 1 screaming up at me from the scale. I'm sure a lot of it is water, but surely some of it is actual fat gain. Sigh. So I'm back in the saddle BIGTIME once again....I'm sending myself to On-Plan Bootcamp for 2 weeks. Nothing off-plan for 2 weeks. And exercise to the NELIE-degree! (Respectful nod to Nelie here. ) I know that with some concerted effort, I'll be back to 216 in no time, and then I'll progress from there. I keep trying to tell myself all the stuff I'd say to any of you in this position, but beating myself up aside, it's still just going to boil down to just knuckling under and looking on the bright side.

So I'll pray to your scale God if you'll pray to mine, ok? Here's to everyone having a great week.

I wouldn't worry about the weekend weight gain, Sarah. As you said, most of its water weight that'll be shed in no time after getting back to business. There's a lot of truth to the "quickly gained, quickly lost" saying.

Whoa Nelie! 5lbs. is a very satisfying loss - you're well on your way to your new Christmas goal. Amy-Jo..you're so close to both "onederland" and 50lb. total loss, I bet you can taste it (umm, poor choice of words?) How exciting that you're likely to be at both by this time next week! Jennifer, 2lbs. is a significant amount (think about 2lbs. of butter) and it must give you a psychological boost to have dropped below the 230s and be in a new "decade".

I'm not counting my 3lb. loss this week because its not due to diligent dieting or excessive exercise - I simply can't eat. Dental weenie I may be, but I had to phone the oral surgeon this morning and request, nay BEG, for my appointment to be moved up (its to the point where I'm sneaking my darling's prescription painkillers). The kindly dr. has agreed to fit me in at 8 a.m. tomorrow morning (I think the sobbing helped).

You all are doing great. Keep up the good work. Sarah I know it's hard not to beat yourself up but hey this kind of stuff happens so just get back at it. I have had two gains during my journey this time but I have still lost lots more. So look at the over all picture and just keep on going.

OK I could not wait to weigh myself I had to check my progress. I am back down to 358 and I still have almost 2 full weeks to make my goal of 350 by Oct 31st. So I have wiped out my recent gain and am back in gear to continue. I am still only going to record my weight once a month so nothing is official until next week when I weigh in. I was going to weigh on Wednesday because we are going to a party on Thursday but I think I should stay on plan for the party. I need to learn how to do that better. So I will weigh for October on the 29th.

Wow! You guys are doing terriffic! I am so proud!! And Sarah, my friend it is A-OK. Remember my vacation?? 6 lb gain?? EEEK... It came right off the next week and so will yours. I believe that mixing up or switching things around is good to keep the body guessing. That's what I say. Thats also what I said after I ate a strawberry cheesecake blizzard tonight too!! (I was actually still within my calories for the day believe it or not!). I'll not do that again for awhile. I feel like crap when I go too far of the beaten path!

I didn't weigh in. I wasn't near a scale.. Well, I was but I forgot to weigh myself. I am in such a tizzy at this point trying to get everything together for this upcoming weekned.. I feel great though and my first 2 abs have appeared! WOW! I still have a way to go but I'm telling you the smallest things these days!!

Congratulations to all of you. Amy Jo, Nelie, Jennifer, Lori and you miss Annie Rose... it's all that "physical" activity with the new guy isn't it!! hee hee

Jill-- 3 lbs is great you big weenie!! lol I hope your procedure goes as smooth as possible for you!! You'll be great!!

Sarah, yeppers, it is A-OK and I know you already know that. Just reiterating it to you as you have done to me through the many times I have gone off the beaten path.

Howie, my man... keep on doing what you're doin' you'll get there I PROMISE! We're all here for ya! Go Howie GO!


And to the rest of you losers... Keep up the great work...

Congrats everyone! You are all doing so great So I was feeling a little down this morning (3.5 hours of sleep between 2 9 hour shifts.. ick), so I decided to get on my scale.. I figured since i had such a crappy weigh in on Friday I might as well depress myself some more! Well I am down 1 pound since Friday, but thats not my official weigh in. Oct 31st is arriving soon, and I still have 6 pounds to go to get to my mini goal... 6 pounds in 2 weeks seems extreme for me.. but I'm back to cutting out bread/pasta/wheat again (health reasons, not weight loss, thats just a nice perk!).. so anything is possible!

Great week everyone
