The last two days have brought me a -3.2 I guess after the frustrating plateau I went through, some of this weight I've been working on finally wants to get out of here. I hope everyone else has a fantastic and motivated day. (:
xheart - I love it when the scale plays nice! Well done! Keep it up. Sometimes a little patience goes a long way.
dcapulet - Great job on the exercising! Love the plans

Day 12: I snuck in a decent walk last night in the nick of time. Was within my points. All-in-all, an okay day. I would like it if I were little more nutrition minded in my choices, but sometimes I just have to go with the flow... and at least I'm still here and I'm still paying attention to my choices
Onto Day 13! Got some coffee... whew... and am aiming to get in my walk before I did last night.
Gah! The scale is going up!
and I know it's only because I had two giant bowls of soup. (but it was only 80 cals per bowl) so I know it's food weight not body weight (i think)
I'm trying not to let it get me down. I feel depressed that I did so well over the weekend only to have gained a good amount today. argg!! But again, I know it's only food gain.
I plan on getting on the treadclimber for at least 30 min in the morning before work.
MelodyLeigh - Keep riding that good wave while there aren't any temptations around! It's awesome for staying on plan
Dcapulet - Hurray for gym & biking!!!
Sakai - I have days like that at least once a week. Something I ate is either heavy in salt or just kinda heavy and even though I'm within my Points it just... shows up on the scale. So you're not alone! I like to try and think that my mostly healthier habits keep the scale from going up 4 pounds instead of 2 when those days come around.

Day 13 - I underate, which means I didn't get in enough fruits and veggies I don't like that. However, I'm getting a cold, which means I'm also a little fussy So I heated up some soup to start today and I'll be trying to grab a piece of fruit for a snack.
Sakai - Try to not let it get you down. You know that it's just from food, so it'll work itself out. (pun intended)
Lovely - Colds are no fun! I hope you get better quickly.
My weekly weigh-in was today. Since last Thursday, I've lost 4.6 pounds! I'm so happy!
It's almost week 2 already? Wow. Good luck to everyone this week!
UPDATE: Something came over me tonight. Something clicked. I was on the elliptical, looked at the time, and KNEW I could pass 15 minutes. In fact, I passed it by a lot. I did 30 whole minutes! I was dripping sweat during the last half, but I felt like I had so much energy. I talked to my sister, and she said that she's up for going to the gym 5 days a week now. After tonight, I know I can workout that often.

Day 14 - Went well. I'm still not feeling great, but it's only slight, so for that I'm thankful. Went a couple Points over on food, but I still have plenty of Weeklies so I'm not off plan.
Hi everyone!
Having a bit of a bad day. My weight is going way up which can only mean TOM is on the way. I'm trying not to let it get me down. I hate working so hard just to see the scale go up a pound everyday for the past few days. I was so close to getting out of the 230's but now I'm closer to the 240's. p
I'm going to keep off the scale for a bit until TOM goes away and things get normal again because I don't want to fall off plan. I'm drinking lots of water, otherwise I'm not sure what else i can do but stay positive.
MelodyLeigh - Whoo!! it's always great to break personal records. Feels great huh ^.^
Oh boy... this cold has been quite a ride. It's still lingering, but I need to stay accountable.
Sakai - I'm sorry you were having a bad day I know that TOM can play some nasty tricks on the scale. But, it WILL go away.
Dcapulet - Wow! Great exercising! I hope you get in a bike ride
Days 16 & 17 - On plan. Nothing super special. I got in movement. (No small feat when I'm feeling sick.) I stayed within my points. (easier to do since I can't taste anything).
I have to say a couple days have come along where I've thought to myself "Man... I could skip my exercise today." But then I considered having to say I went offplan and I immediately rejected it. I weighed them. Skipping the exercise being an immediate gratification... or getting in some movement and being able to be extra proud of myself on Day 90. ... Day 90 won out thankfully.
Weight dipped and then shot back up. I had a lot more sodium than normal yesterday so I'm not freaking out, just drowning myself with water tonight.
Worked out super hard yesterday. Almost started crying on the treadclimber.. @.@
not sure why, but was just suddenly hit with a wave of emotion.
Lovely - thanks ^.^ I know TOM will pass. I think the combo of moodiness and weight gain just really get me down.
