I have been extremely quite. For some reason this month just seems so crazy. I posted my weight lost for the week and it was only 1 pound (I blame it on TOM) so hopefully next week will be better.
The scale is a fickle little beast for sure. I'm down 3 lbs this week. Which is awesome, last week it was only down 1/2 lb and the week before was a lb and a 1/2 gain. So I'm averaging about a lb per week since I started food logging, which is all I've wanted and hoped for. It's just frustrating to plug a 3 lb loss into the WW site and be chastised for it.
I am staying home with a sick kid today. She's run fever off and on all weekend. I'm waiting for her to wake up so I can check her today.
I did weigh without clothes something I have never done so that might have been the 1/2 pound too. Anyway I will take it.
I think you have to be wearing some pretty heavy clothes to make a difference. I've tried weighing with clothes on, and then immediately after with clothes off. My scale doesn't budge with the change

I know, right? haha. I just ignore it. It can get over itself with it's RULES
Hope everyone had a great weekend and is ready to weigh in today! Don't forget!
I only had a 1 pound loss this week but after some questionable days of eating, I'll take it. I'm more focused this week and plan on doing much better for week 3!
I have a big meeting at my house today with my son's psychologist and tutor to go over the plan that has been written for him. I believe the tutor will start coming this week as well, which is great because my son seems to be in a funk and I could use the help!
Well I am off to make lunch for DS and wake them up for breakfast. Have a great day everyone!
I posted a 2.6 loss for this week. Funny, it was better than my week 1 loss, so that's good. I try to stick around that 2 pound loss mark, if I can. That's supposed to be the healthy amount, but you know how it is. One week it's nothing, the next week it's 3-4 pounds. I'll take whatever I get as long as it's a loss!!
tina-I hear about the WW website. I got the little message a couple weeks ago and that was just a little over 2 pounds...geez, people! It's not like we dropped 10 pounds or something. Let us enjoy the victory!
Hope you are all ready for week 3 and making those good choices. I've been struggling in Septmeber with feeling a more hungry. I think my body wants to store up fat and hibernate! LOL I'm just hoping if I keep eating right, it'll pass. I eat filling, healthy foods, so it's not like I'm starving myself. Just sharing...
Hi Red team,
It's been a good weekend, DS got home yesterday. My eating hasn't been the best, but I'm going to get back on program with that. I need to add more fruits and veges back in and cut the sweets. I admit to being a cookie monster. I have gotten back into using the elliptical daily for at least 30 minutes, so that is helping.
It's good to see that everyone is have good losses, and for those that don't think it's going so great, just remember the health benefits of eating better, even if you don't lose lots of weight a little loss or even not gaining is good for you.
It's going to be a busy week with DS home and my Dad having an appointment with his surgeon so I probibly won't post much.
Hi team-
sorry I haven't been active on the boards. Have had a hard time getting on the computer. Have been tracking food & getting my steps in- but only saw 0.4 loss this week.
I need to up the exercise & am contemplating getting an elliptical to enhance my exercise/weightloss. Anyone have recommendations on one they like?
Way to go everyone with the losses & for those who are struggling (like me) :hugs: and hang in there.
I've felt very bloated/full for the past 2 days- not sure what's causing it-but hope it passes soon as I don't feel that I've overeaten- but my body is paying me back for something.
mtiger~ Be proud of the weight you have lost and look at how far you have come! You’re doing great and every little ounce helps the team!
cakses~ I know how you feel about moving from one place to another, but having to worry about both… I moved out of my apt. on the 15th of August, but couldn’t actually check out until the 30th, it is super stressful! Trust me, you will feel amazing once you turn your keys in! Sorry to hear about your DH heading back overseas. My brother is leaving early next year for Afghanistan, also for the third time, and he just found out his fiancée is pregnant. Congratulations on 1 lb.!!!
JasonsLea~ Haha… just remember, “i” before “e” except after “c”… just kidding, caffeine is one of those weird rules that doesn’t follow the rule (English teacher, sorry)…

Lots of congratulations to give out this week that is AWESOME!!! Hopefully that means we will see another WIN!!! And I’m trying to lead up to the fact that I unfortunately saw a crappy gain of 3 lbs. this week. Sorry It was a super rough weekend and I unfortunately turned to food as my outlet. I also discovered at the end of last week that my scale had been lying to me and I am actually exactly 10 pounds heavier than it has been saying I took the scale with me to WW to check it out. Oh yeah… I restarted weight watchers as I need a little bit more help being accountable. I’m hoping that between that and 3FC, I can finally start seeing some real success! Happy Monday everyone!
Hey everyone. Well I lost 2 lbs for the week, and that's with TOM! I think my field trip to Panama City Beach helped since we were pretty active trying to catch fish. I love by GoWear Fit! I've only been wearing it for 2 days but it is so awesome. Congrats everyone on the losses!
I have a lot to catch up on. I just can't seem to find the time to get on the computer...I feel like I am always running around. I forgot to weigh myself last week, so since the start of this, I am down 2 lbs. (At least it is heading in the right direction)
I will try to pop in later to do some personals. I hope everyone is doing well!
Hello everyone. Well it's Tuesday morning here in SK. My weigh in for the week was Sunday morning so its been about 2 days now for week 3. As I said before, my lack of food in the house is affecting me a little. Not weight wise, but craving wise yes. I have laid in bed the last two nights fighting hunger pains when I know darn well I am not really hungry and that it is all mental. I won those two nights because I didn't get up to eat anything. I am desperately ready to get paid tomorrow because as soon as I am done with work I am on my way to the grocery store so I can get the food my body is craving (specifically yogurt, cucumbers, pineapple slices please!!!). Hope everyone is having a good start to week 3. I didn't exercise on Sunday or Monday, but I plan on doing the WATP 2 mile when I get home today.
