I'm trying to multi quote DArby anf Haleygirl. Not working.

My mother just left and I headed straight for the fridge and sweets. Totally compulsive.... I didn't do too much damage... now I have to just deal with the rest of the night.. it's just 5pm.

I'm sorry kittycat40. Hang in there and do your best. Realize that overeating for the rest of the day is not going to change your mom and it's definitely not going to help you!

Of course, that's easy for me to say, as I WAY overdid it yesterday after lunch with my mother. But I'm back on it today! And that's what you need to do. Just jump back into it and know you're strong! Don't let her undo all your good work!

Yes!

This morning I was down :) 148 for the first time this year :)!!

Finally, I got my driving license this morning!!!!:carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot:

Yep I understand the devil on the shoulder all too well, just keep in mind you can beat it down!!

It's going to start moving in the right direction again. You're still checking in and taking an active role. One day at a time!

:congrat: Woo hoo drivers license and a pound down, what an awesome day!!


Alas I knew my dramatic drop was too good to be true. I was 223 this morning. It's okay, I'm still slowly but surely moving down the scale even with my ups and downs. Seeing that lower number is just motivating me to get out of the 220s quicker!
Have a good day all!! I'll be kayaking 2 hours today for a work event - I may not be able to lift my arms tomorrow!

CONGRATULATIONS THERESIA!!!! And down to 148, too!! What a great way to kick off your day!

Have fun kayaking, Heather! You'll be out of the 220s before you know it, you've been doing great!


I inched down a bit this morning to 178.2.

Start Weight: 178.8
Current Weight: 178.2 (-.6, 4.4 to go!)
Goal Weight: 173.8

Kittycat: sweety, you did damage control. parents are tough sometimes, my estranged father is a nightmare!

Theresia: BRAVO!!! well done i bet you are over the moon! what happened! tell all!!

FCBG: dont despair, your body is teasing you ;)

Josephine: well done on the little move!! thats great!


i'm still at 203... no movement yet... darn TOM. i bet something will move in the next few days.

im on plan! and last night i lifted free weights but ive twitched a nerve i think in my neck/shoulder as it really hurts today... im gonna stand under a hot shower later and do some cardio after i do some uni work..

have a good day gals!

Many thanks for the scale brand advice, chickies. :-) Much appreciated!

Soooo close to breaking out of the 160s! WTG!

I'm back up in the previously won "decade", too, L4A ... but this only makes us more determined, yes?! Yes!!

I'm keeping my devil swatter handy! :frypan:

Yes, I am very happy, especially because I'm going to dominican republic in 3 weeks,, and I just had to have the license before that.. So this morning I found one last minute time.. And everything just went well with no mistakes.. So I got it, The person that controlled me was great to.. He was very nice and we spoke a lot. The others that I drove with didn't want to talk at all.. so they kinda scared me ... Now I am going to go and workout to lose one more pound until tomorrow.. (at least I will try :))

Congratulations, theresia!

Thanks, Ryn. I am super excited to get out of the 160's, but because of TOM, it's gonna be a little while... :)

Hi, All!
 

I'm new here as of last week. I love me some motivation, so I'll join up. I can GUARANTEE you that I won't win, though, because knowing myself as I do, I just can't get on the scale more than once a week. It's too much of a 'set-up' for me. My weigh in days are Wednsday morning, so I'll keep on an eye on you guys, and just "imagine" that I'm having daily weight loss like so many of you are!! Congrats to everyone.

Becky (can't have a signature yet) :dizzy:

hey girls! thanks for the advice, I think I will just say that I´m not feeling hungry and just focus on socializing with everyone. I just decided that it doesn´t matter what everyone thinks, I´m after all doing this for me! But anyways it´s been going good, except for yesterday I was feeling exhausted and only managed to do half of my workout but that´s better than nothing!, then I just went home and went early to bed, so I´m just gonna learn from that, that I need to go to bed earlier:smug:

anyways I weighed myself and I´m down 1 pound:D

You got that right! You stick to your guns!

Way to go on the pound loss, too, whoo hoo!

I'm down .5 lbs. So that brings me to:

I'm not dropping very quickly, which I know is better for long-term weight loss, but it's frustrating as I'm used to losing it more quickly.

Oh well, I'm hanging in there. I've been working out hard. I couldn't make myself work out twice a day, so now I work out twice as long once a day. I feel great afterwards, so it's all good.

Theresia-congratulations on getting your license!

Just keep swimming-You're so close! You'll get out of the 160's before you know it!

Heather-how was the kayaking? That is something I've always wanted to try.

BeckyC-welcome! I get a little crazy with the scale too, so I know where you're coming from.

exerciserocks-congrats on being down a pound

Have a great Thursday, everyone!
