Darby & Josephine, thanks for the support. Today has gone better and I am hoping that it will be reflected on the scale tomorrow morning.

I went for a run with the dogs (for the first time, I usually run solo) on Saturday and OH MY GOD, I am so sore just walking hurts! I may tone it back and just go for a walk with the kids tonight. I only went a little farther than usual, I think the dogs pulling really worked some muscles I'm not used to using.

Im totally with you on all of that darby! Ever since I found this place. this is where I go to share stuff about weight loss and everything. Even thought myfiance tries, he doesn't understand as well as the people here do! ( but im glad he tries to help! hehe)


I had a bad day, eating wise. Had some bad news about my fiance and how he's being deployed and is leaving for training in 2 days.. and how i have to move in two days too back to canada. It will all be fine in the end.. but just stressfull.. and I had JUST gotten settled in here in kansas! Im looking up.. but earlier today I think I ate like .. i dont know how many ' 60calorie dark chocolate treats' and followed it up with a cinco de mayo dinner and baskin robins for desert. Maybe it's just the sugar high.. but im not gonna feel guilty, just get back on the wagon tomorow. Thank god for new days!!!

Wow fauxtini, that's a lot of change in a day! Hang in there. I hope everything goes smoothly for you.

I'm up to 228.6 today. Had a pretty high sodium dinner last night and crossing my fingers that's why. Man oh man my scales like to go up/down/up/down, but I'm moving down slowly but surely and that's what's important!

Have a good day all.

Morning gang! I'm still losing little bits at a time (down another .4 this morning), which is good since I was afraid I'd be derailed by TOM. I don't think I'm as affected by that as some people, so I feel lucky to lose at all!

Start weight: 188.4
Current weight: 186.4 (-2 lbs, 3 lbs to go!)
Goal weight: 183.4

---------------------------

Wow, Fauxtini, I'm so sorry to hear that you have to move again. I hope your husband will be ok. My husband went to Iraq (and other parts of the ME) as a military contractor and frankly it was hard letting him go (he's back now). Hang in there!

Heather -- have you recovered from the concert yet? I bet it was a great show!

Still up from the weekend.....i also ate late last night. I could not go to sleep...... I was starving. Sometimes I can go to bed a little hungry but last night my body would not shut up....I didn't pig out though so I should be alright.

fauxtini~ Just think how much you will have lost by the time your fiance gets back :D Hope your settled soon :hug:

Tyler- that is the best way to lose. Seems to be harder to gain when you lose slow.

Have a good day ladies :carrot:


SW:227.4
CW 227.2
GW 222.4

so somehow this week i managed to work out 4 times and stay OP all week... actually under my weekly calories by 143... yet i gained a pound...

all i know is it BETTER be muscles lol

SW = 188
GW = 183
CW = 189 :halfempty

Darby and Fauxtini, this place (3fc) is like having a therapist on call 24/7. I spend quite a bit of time on this site. DH feels like I have another life... but I told him... every minute I'm on this site, I'm not eating (read that in someone else's post and it was right on!) And yes, we are all, SO on the same page. It's wonderful!!

Josephine- I have to tell you, I had my own, or actually , DH had his own bird drama. He was cleaning out our house, and a bird flew in-- he tried to help it out and ultimately did but not b4 the bird pooped on our couch! hehe. As soon as he told me... I replied, "oh I have to tell Josephine.. you remember, the bird story I chuckled over for a full day!"

Ok back to the scale..... finally some movement.... down .5 to 149.5 woohoo.
I hope it sticks to the 4s tomorrow. TOM is this week and I'm bloaty and b^*&^tchy. To be honest I'm not sure where I started... I think, 150. So... start 150 current 149.5, goal 145. Yeah that sounds right.

have a great day, all. I am currently procrastinating re: my treadmill run. And the baby is asleep in the car...

Must tell one more thing... MAMATONI-- that sweet baby girl is breathtaking in her pink snow suit-- can you tell I have all boys?? :)

Alright ladies it's not the prettiest(formatting I mean) but here's where we stand as of now (I think). Feel free to come beat a pound or two off of me if I'm wrong :D

Theresia's ahead with only 2lbs to go! :carrot:

Okay I thought it would show up in the message. I'll have to figure out how to do that but for now you can click on the file. Sorry!

pigged out & wanna die! not really, but i'm up...and i need to be down. Hopefully today i can keep my motivation & realize why i'm trying to eat better...to lose weight! No more oink oink here.

I also haven't been exercising as much, it's hard to @ my mom's house :( I'll figure it out though. Today is the first day of the rest of my life!

FCBG (I don't feel right typing fat chick ;)) I love the chart. Very cool idea!! Feel free to deduct 3lbs from my weight...just let my scale know also!! :D

Thanks for making the chart! I havn't had a chance to do any 'topic starter' duties! I'm bad. lol

Thanks for the support guys. I've been so frustrated with the gov't lately. Since he's amercian and i'm candian, I 'm not even allowed to marry my fiance until we get our paperwork approved. ( which is taking forever) and NOW he's being deployed. Everything will be alright in the end.. but i'm just getting impatient!!

Tyler: I didn't know your hubby did work overseas too. I guess you will be teh lucky one that gets to hear me snarling about missing my fiance once he goes hahahahaha

And yeah.. my fiance said last night that he wondered if he would recongnize me when he got back! lol I guess it helps me pick the goal time to be at my goal weight! When he returns!

Anyway.. i'm back on the wagon today. Even though TOM is here. I'm going to lose a darn pound or two this week!! I AM! hehe

Way to go you guys!! the pounds are ticking away!! I'm gonna try to join the pounds lost club by tomorrow! lol

TM & fauxtini - :hug: Hang in there! (Does that make anyone else think of that poster of that cat like hanging from a tree or something? No, just me? OK... :))

Down another 0.2 this morning. Talk about slow and steady! :lol: Still not back down to my last "official" weigh-in weight (for the Biggest Loser challenge), but almost!

SW: 166.2
CW: 165.6 (-0.6)
GW: 161.2

I forgot to weigh in this morning, so I'll see tomorrow how it goes,, I did my first run this morning for many weeks.. 3000 meters - 20 minutes..
Now for the next 9 days I am very stressed out.. Cuz, 15 may I will have a driving license test.. It's really hard here in Sweden.. Hopefully I will make it and start thinking on myself again =)

I totally did! :)

no loss from me today.. scale flitted between 206.6 and 207... damn thing.

i have come off of atkins today to just do healthy eating, calorie counting and exercise... i need to do something i can do for life, and atkins bores me to tears sometimes.

racked up 1.5 miles walking in the hot hot english weather here today (seriously! it was like 25 degrees centigrade!) and also 30 mins pilates :)
