Yeah the pole with bread and water sounds like a good idea! Although I'd never make it to kickboxing...

Yuck, I am up 1.5 lbs. We ate out 4 nights in a row!!!! Not doing that this week...hopefully I can get this off faster...going to try and do more walking!

I have a friend, Lynn, that might jump in and set a goal for Valentines too. 10 lbs. would be too much but set your own goal Lynn.....I'm sure a new challenge will be starting after that.

Good luck all, Phyllis

I was doing so well but this weekend has killed me! It's a 3 day weekend for hubby and I both because of MLK day today. We were slammed with an ice storm that started Friday evening and finally gave up last night around midnight. This morning every single thing outdoors was encrusted in like 1/2" of ice. So we've been cooped up and bored. Hubby braved his way into town last night to our favorite restaurant and brought home cheese fries and chicken fried steak. I've been drinking sodas like crazy. Needless to say, I haven't hopped on the scales today. I really don't want to know. To make it all worse, I finished off my steak and fries for lunch today. So tomorrow it's back to work and back on track.

Down another 1/2 pound.
I see too many sad faces on this thread!

Four-tenths of a pound to go.

And four full weeks to do it.

Hmm - that was me last October. My goal had been to get to a certain weight by my birthday (oct 28th) and it was the beginning of October and I only had half a pound to go. I bragged too!

Of course, despite being really good, I put on a pound and it took me the entire four weeks to get rid of that pound and a half. But I actually did it on the morning of my birthday - I hit that goal!

Let's hope you don't do what I did!

down another 0.2

Oh yeah, st patty's, easter, memorial day...my birthday, lots of mini goals to come!

Hi,

My name is Lynn & I've been away from 3FC for quite a while. I'd like to join your group. I'm at 172 today. My goal for Valentine's Day is to get below 170.

Lynn

An excellent goal, ladyinweighting.

And a great idea ennay - I think I'll lose weight for your birthday, too! hehe

I'll be counting every peanut! LOL I know what you mean though... easy to get over confident.

The scale finally friggin' MOVED! yayyyyy

It's only a pound, but I'll take it. I got very tired of seeing that same number every morning for nearly 3 weeks!

This gives me continued motivation!

Way to go SmartButt!!!!!

My scale is stuck. I think I'm going to go buy a new one *tee hee*

No, actually, I have been stuck this week...that darned life thing keeps popping up. But I'm about to head out for a nice long power walk in the skyway followed by a low cal lunch from Subway and then tonight, American Idol and no snacks. I'm having the after-dinner issue again where I'm starving and/or restless after 6pm (which is when my ADHD meds begin to wear off) and I am working on ways to get around that. Taking more meds might work in Hollywood but it's not an option for me...(I actually read that on another site as "helpful" advice to someone else with my problem...unbelievable!)

My scale is also stuck. Must be going around. STS today. No loss. I've been eating around 1100 calories/day. Maybe I need to reduce.
