Bigmid - Have a great trip!!!

I have been having a rough time with weightloss. I haven't been losing as much as I hoped. So I recalculated my calories. I need to drop daily amount some due to my previous weightloss. However, I am extremely hunger which is causing me to eat too much. Not sure what to do.

Hello everyone.

hiddenstar I am not doing well with dropping the weight either. I see my surgeon this week and we will determine whether to move ahead with the surgery. Otherwise I will also try to come up with some new direction and get things moving again

Jenile4 · 03-04-2013, 06:29 PM

Hiddenstar and Misti: You guys are both doing great to stick with things even when the scale isn't cooperating. Keep at it!

You've already come really far!

Misti: Hope your consultation with the doctor goes well this week.

I'm feeling really excited this week. Finally was able to see numbers under 200!

Hoping it sticks around... TOM is approaching and I usually
stall/gain right before.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Congratulations to all the losers this week !! Holy crow... what a week for the Blue Team !! You are all hitting it out of the park !!

We are now officially down to 11 members on the team but we are very strong... well done !

Week 8 was a tough one for me... it's definitely time for me to be with hubby. My computer decided to have a meltdown so now I'm on a laptop for the next couple of months. It will all work out.

Finally got hiking today... it felt good to exercise again... I've been struggling with both food and exercise for way too long now... time to pull up the big girl panties and get my act in gear !!

Have a super week 9 team !!

Hi everyone just a quick post from Jamaica

CONGRATULATIONS 18young, Jenile4, and dare 2 dream for being our biggest losers this week.

I'm not going to make it in the winners category with you next week as I think I've already put on about 3lbs and it only day 2..... I'm in trouble.

Well I've been eating okay until tonight but tomorrow hav an excursion planned so hope to get a little more exercise in too.

Hav a great rest o the week

hiddenstar · 03-05-2013, 12:49 AM

Jamica sounds nice. Can't wait to hear more about your trip when you get back.

WOOHOO!!!! Way to go Blue. Congrats to all that stay strong this week.

I finally had a good day. Stayed in targeted calories without ending up starving

Misti in Seattle · 03-05-2013, 12:56 AM

Way to go, Blue Team! Congrats to you big losers!!! (i.e. winners).

18young · 03-05-2013, 08:46 AM

Vacation sounds fun! We just got buried under about a foot of snow here in WI. Lucky you get to be enjoying the warm weather! Stay strong blue team, lets go for another win this week!!!

Jenile4 · 03-05-2013, 10:19 AM

Congrats 18young on a great week!

Bigmid- hope you are having a great time on your vacation!

Have a great week everyone!

bethbeth · 03-05-2013, 10:42 AM

Hey Ladies. Congrats on another win!

I'm having a terrible week. Started with a few treats for my birthday a few days ago and hasn't stopped yet. I don't know if it is self-sabbotage or just feeling like there's no way I can make it to my goals. I don't know.

I haven't gained weight any week in this challenge so far, and really don't want to this week either! I don't know, I guess I just lost my motivation this week.

hiddenstar · 03-07-2013, 12:55 PM

BethBeth - I understand losing motivation. It just seems like this diet is going on forever. I so want to be on maintenance. The only things that are keeping me going is this challenge (don't want to let the team down/plus made a committment) and I want to look good on my summer vacation.
Hang in there.

18young - I am so jealous of you. I love big snow piles. We had no snow this winter

I like the Texas heat but grew up in the North so I miss my snow.

bethbeth · 03-08-2013, 10:16 AM

well guys, I don't know what happened. I had a bad week, no exercise, not so controlled eating. I didn't weigh myself all week. This morning I finally weighed expecting bad news, and somehow I lost a pound. crazy!

Misti in Seattle · 03-08-2013, 05:20 PM

Well, so far still no more weight loss for me but I am busting butt working out LOL. Another two hour vigorous water dancing workout this morning. But my friends here said the same thing others have been telling me... I just don't have any place to lose it except getting rid of this boob and stomach stuff... so we shall see! I am also getting so much stronger.

Hang in there everyone... we can do this

LeslieB · 03-10-2013, 01:45 AM

Here's hoping everyone had a great week 9... don't forget about the time change when weighing in today.
