I weigh on Mondays too. Last week I was up another pound but was having hormone issues. It should be gone tomorrow night when I get up.

[GoingForGold82]

Hi toobig. Hormone issues are THE WORST. I gain 5-7 lbs in a matter of a day or two. I'll lose it just the same, but it's discouraging.

So weigh-in Sunday for me. Drumroll. 158!
First week back on the job so I expected good progress. I haven't been below 156 in about 8 years, so 155 is a magical # for me.

Hope all is well gang.

YAY *\o/* great loss. My scale said 157, but it's not digital, I think I"m going to have to just get a digital scale. My fear is that my scale is so off that when I use the digital I'll be plus 5 or more pounds...

[toobig]

I was down to 180.5 today! Yes!

[diamond_girl]

I was right, that scale was off. new scale say's I'm at 163.2 so I'm going with that. sigh... Oh well, I'm still saying I lost 11 lbs, I was just fatter when I started. Still in the overweight category...

[GoingForGold82]

toobig and diamondgirl - WAY TO GO!!! I had 3 days of eating from ****, but I kept up with my exercises and feel thinner. I think this week I'll be 158 or 159, but I converted some fat to muscle (so I think). Eating 1500 calories again and I feel much better. 130, here I come!!

[GoingForGold82]

diamondgirl - new scales are the worst, but this is just a temporary setback. You are so close, and when you get back down, you'll never have to doubt the scale again! No more living in fear lol :-)

[toobig]

Just getting up and getting my day started. Today is going to be a perfectly on plan eating day. Hope everyone has a great day.

Good Morning Everyone! I've been taking the stairs at work and also twice a day walking up to the 6th floor and back down to the first floor then back to my 3rd floor. I'm also doing arms every other day (stupid batwings, it sucks getting old) and I try to get on the treadmill to do at least 30 minutes every other day. (50 minutes on the weekend when I'm not doing the stairs)

The boys and I are going on a 5 day cruise in 67 days!! That's my motivator. I'd like to lose enough for what I'll gain. I'm hoping that by then I'll develop a liking to the treadmill and use the cruise facilities. Yeah, right.

[GoingForGold82]

toobig - awesome! I had a great eating day yesterday.

diamond girl - 5 day cruise in what 68 days? oh 67 days, and no less ;-) I triple dog dare you to work out on vacation. I'll be incredibly impressed.

I've been doing the leslie sansone walk away the pounds videos with weights. they are so easy, but it I get in 30 minutes or an hour it is an extra 200-400 calories burned. plus, they are really helping me tone some of that fat into muscle. BIG LIKE>

[diamond_girl]

GoingForGold82 I'm just not a good follower of videos, I get bored real easy. I usually watch the TV while walking on the treadmill, then it doesn't feel like exercise.

And the "the coup de grace of all dares, the sinister triple-dog-dare."

[toobig]

We are doing great!

[tdiprincess]

Hi all! Couldn't help but notice there's a lot here in the same boat as me! I'm back after a hiatus that lasted a little too long.
I like the idea of support each other for the next little bit!
