Still plateaued firmly between 220 and 223.

lacerta ~ I am sorry this plateau is lingering. Maybe if you shake things up a bit - higher caloric day within reason, then lower. Sometimes this helps me.

getting through my work trip in China at the moment, but eating and snacking too much and feel stodgy. Hotel scales have me at 110 lb this morning though, so that's below what I feel like!! Would be nice to get back to some routine, except i'm only home for the weekend then off on another work trip next week....
Anyway just checking in to say i'm doing moderately but there's definitely some room for improvement.

Hope everyone else is happy with their efforts and seeing the right results in the weighing department. That's 1/3 of October done already - eek!!

10/6: 271 Crazy loss this week, which I've talked about ad nauseum in the October Weight Loss Challenge thread
10/13 273 Rebound after last week

Down 2.2 pounds this week :D
I bought a new scale that measures body fat and muscle etc, it is weighing me more than the scale I have been using. I'm in the haunting for halloween challenge and it ends at the end of the month, so once that is up I'm probably going to skip a week of weigh in so my new scale matches what the old one weighed me at, and then just use my new one from there on out. I don't like using 2 scales lol

Lacerta: I saw your post on the Haunting for Halloween thread that you broke your plateau. Great job on your loss this week:)

I'm really happy to see that I'm losing a bit each week and I'm down .8 this week.

So this turned out to be my best week ever, if you look purely at the end number. Interestingly, two of my best weeks bookend my plateau. So if you look at the last 7 weeks, I've lost 7.6 pounds, or more than a pound a week, even though I was totally stuck for 5 of those weeks. Interesting (to me at least). Still not sure if I've broken the plateau, but at least I hung on to the 218s today. I'm finally showing a loss instead of a gain for this challenge, yay!

MorningGlory: Thanks for the tip. I tried that. Pretty much you name it, I tried it over the last 5 weeks. My body was just going to do what it was going to do.

somedaysunny: No need to skip a week unless you want to. I'd just make yourself a note that you changed scales at that point and what the difference is.

Can I please join. I am following WW. I've lost a stone in last 13 week-so slow going.

17 lbs go go.

well done on your weight loss already guys. Xxx

Lacerta I'm a number person, I hate seeing the number go up, even though I know in reality it didn't. I only record my lows, if I go up a few pounds I don't record it on my app I track everything wit; so I won't personally record my weight with the new scale until I get below what the old one says. If I do go up I record it on the challenges, just not for my own record. So it's just a me thing really lol if I miraculously loose enough that week that I switch scales ill put that down but I don't see it happening. Hope for the best though!

topsy welcome! Is that your kitty in your picture? Looks just like the cat I had, he passed away back in July but he was a tuxedo kitty too!

111 lb for me at the moment, so I've put on 2lb since the start of the month which is good, except now I want to stay here for a while and not let any more creep back on! This will be a bit of a challenge possibly with a 10 day holiday in Sri Lanka coming up in two weeks.
Off back to the airport for my next work trip away this lunchtime, so the travel thing is going a bit nuts at the moment and looks like it'll continue til end of Jan at least. Enjoying it really, but the food thing is hard....

With the way my weight loss has been going I have changed by target weight to 280. I originally picked 270 because thats my next mini goal but I don't think that will be realistic unless i lose more than 2 pounds a week. Im still going at it though and lost 2.2 pounds this week. I'm also keeping up at the gym, I would like to go 3x a week. Right now I'm working toward walking my first 5k. I was actually supposed to be doing my first one today but I'm no where near ready for it. So, my first one IS going to be December 8th! It's 3.1 miles I believe and I'm currently walking 1.5 miles on the treadmill. Next time I go back, which will probably be monday, I plan on walking 2 miles. I think once I get to being able to walk 3.1 miles is when I will start trying to increase my speed. Has anyone here done 5Ks in the past? Does this sound like a good idea?

Not as good of a week this week for me. I had a really good first few days and then spent the last 3 days snacking way too much, thus resulting in a gain this week.

Keep up the good work everyone.

Haven't been posting and have been off track for a while but i'm back in the game! Thankfully I didn't gain so I hope to stay on track and make my goal this time!
