Everyone is doing great!!

I weigh myself on Friday, but I like checking to see how we're all doing.

I was pleased after this weekend. I am still tending to take the weekends off, at least partly. So between Friday & Sunday, I ate too much fast/junk food.

Even so, I didn't gain. Got on the scale this morning, and it was essentially the same as it was Friday, so I'm happy about that.

Need to cut the "weekend off" days down to one instead of both, but dh, who is mostly fasting, takes off. My loss may not be as fast as if didn't take off, but I'm still losing, so I'm happy.


short & sassy 05-05-2008 01:42 PM

Hi ladies, I'd like to join your Flex weigh in for May. I'm a Monday weigher so I'll report my weight loss next week. But I was down 1 lb from last Monday.

Everyone have a good week.

Shannon1983 05-05-2008 02:04 PM

Short and Sassy,
Congrats on your loss, keep up the good work. I think we should make our May Goal no problem!!

Congrats Dawn, Tori, and Alan and short & sassy on your losses!

Just a friendly reminder, when you're posting your WI results add the updated group total count! Last month the math got kind of messy :)

Group total 28.5

Little confused because I'm new to this... I'm assuming that means that whenever someone posts a loss, s/he then adds her/his loss to the group total and posts that on the bottom? I didn't realize we were supposed to do that. Sorry!!


staja 05-06-2008 06:47 AM

I was down another 4 pounds yesterday, so the group total is now -32.5!

d56alpine 05-06-2008 09:04 AM

gypsylthr-If you are not seeing adequate weight loss and you really ARE sticking to WW 100%, I would suggest mixing up your points if you're not already doing it. Sometimes if I stick to around the same number of points everyday, it comes off more slowly than if one day I'm at the bottom of my range and the next I'm in the middle and then a high day then a low...you get the picture. Someone posted a "formula" on 3FC last year or so. It was supposed to help boost you over a plateau, I think. I found it worked as a weekly routine.

alliez 05-06-2008 10:30 AM

Okay today is my first weigh-in after a full week on program! I am hoping for a great day! I will post after my weigh-in after work.

maass1981 05-06-2008 11:11 AM

everyone is doing such a great job so far:carrot:. my dh and i weigh in tonight. so i will report back in the morning with our losses.:trampo:everyone keep up the good work. wish us luck!

maass1981 05-07-2008 09:34 AM

well, my hubby and i weighed in last night and i can add 2.6 to the total and he can add 6. yeah!!! :carrot:


group total: 41.1:D

alliez 05-07-2008 10:06 AM

Well, went to the meeting last night and weighed in - down 1lb. To be honest, I was a little disappointed! I worked really hard last week, stayed on program, and walked for 250 mins. I kind of expected closer to a 2lb lost. But, a loss is a loss, guess I just need to get over it and work hard again this week!

Group Total: 42.1

:) It's fine, no worries! It just saves the hassle of adding it up at the end of the month (it probably wouldn't get done then, and that's not as fun!). I just wanted to make sure we keep the tally up or else it gets hard to keep it accurate. But yep, when you post a loss (or gain), add it to the group total and add that at the bottom of your post so things remain clear.

Of course, even if you forget it's not a huge deal. So no worries :)

oops I didn't add it up either! My Bad! Now that I know i'll be sure to do it next week! :smug:

Paintfancy 05-07-2008 11:48 AM

I was down 1.2 this morning. I made my 30lb mark! :carrot::carrot::carrot: I'm so excited!

I'm also very concerned about the next 10lbs coming off...:o

Group total: 43.3

suitejudyblueeyes 05-07-2008 12:02 PM

:bravo: Way to go Kim!

Don't be concerned about those next 10 lbs. Look how far you've come, and you didn't even think you could do that! Look at the last 5 or so pounds, how you were worried you couldn't do it, and you have! You're totally rocking this whole weight loss thing. Don't worry about it one bit, you can and will do it!!

luvmyfam 05-07-2008 12:28 PM

Woohoo, Jessica & hubby!! That's great to hear!


luvmyfam 05-07-2008 12:31 PM

That's wonderful, alliez! And you're right... A loss is a loss. I lost 3 lbs in my first 10 days, but each week since then has only been a 1 lb loss. So long as it's still coming down, I'm happy. I've read a lot from the members here that a lot of people might lose a lot one week, then not much the next. It all evens out in the end :) .

So, congrats!!


luvmyfam 05-07-2008 12:42 PM

Kim,

You rock! 30 lbs is awesome! You can absolutely do this...just 10 lbs to go? You'll get there, I know it.


Manick 05-07-2008 12:55 PM

Good News Chickadees!!!
 
Official WW weigh in was today....


Down 2.5 lbs !!! :woohoo:

204.5 for me :D

Group total: 45.8

Big Congrats and :carrot: to Paint! Keep up the good work! Blaze the trail for us :spin:

MystTrisha 05-07-2008 01:42 PM

Hey guys:

I think that joining this thread would be motivational for me so I am here to add my totals.

I weigh in on thursdays usually and since my last weigh in was May 1st, I am pleased to contribute at least something to the total.

I lost 0.8 pounds which brings the group total to.....

46.6 pounds!

Glad I could contribute even if its only a little

Paintfancy 05-07-2008 02:52 PM

2.5lbs Manick? That's awesome! MystTrisha 0.8 is still down. I'm learning the hard way and very impatiently, that a loss is a loss. You go girl!

There will be no trail blazing today. It's raining here and all I've done is sit on this doggone computer all day. I'm sure not contributing to activity pts this afternoon! I did work out this morning like usual, but I have a feeling it's going to take more than that to keep going.

Jaime- I just looked at my excel sheet that I've been tracking my progress on...this last 5 lbs has taken me 7 weeks! Ugh! If I keep this up it'll be the end of Summer before I make goal! Holy crap! That's scary to me. I'd better really push myself!

ETA: Sorry, I got off topic 46.6 lbs for a group total so far WOW!!!!

suitejudyblueeyes 05-07-2008 03:16 PM

Yeah, it was a bit of a shock for me to realize that it took me five weeks to get below 200 from 203. :dizzy:

But it happened eventually, so I'm happy!

kelijpa 05-07-2008 05:50 PM

4/29---> 159.4 | +2.8 ~~~ 15.2 off
5/06---> 157.0 | -2.4 ~~~ 17.6 off

group total - 49

Wow, almost 50 lbs. the first week??!!! Great job group! Have some major reading to catch up on here!!

Kimber1988 05-07-2008 10:08 PM

weighed in today...lost the .6 that I had gained from last week!!


Weigh to go everyone!!!

MystTrisha 05-08-2008 01:23 PM

Week 2 Weigh In
 
Hey guys,

Just dropping a quick line. Had my week 2 weigh in this morning. I lost another 0.8 which if my calculations are correct...

The group total is now...

50.4!

Institches21 05-08-2008 01:29 PM

Wow, I sure have alot of catch up reading to do ;)

I'm down, 3.2 for the week :carrot:

Group Total: 52.8 Which is so Awesome. Good Job Everyone :D

:dancer: :broc: I'm so glad it was such a great week, but with that said, I'm coming back to Flex, even if it means my losses might not be as great as this week. It was harder than I thought, with flex I don't have to think about it, I portion out my food, count my points and move on. With core, there is alot on the list, you can have, but for me I work better on flex, there isn't much taste in everything fat-free, it's nice to be home. :hug: besides how to do count for a 0 point item, and it's not on the core list (fiber one cereal, 1/4 c is 0 pts, mixed in with my yogurt is so yummy)

Well I do hope everyone has a Great rest of the week. ;)

Institches21 05-08-2008 01:30 PM

Sorry,

Group total is: 53.6 Wow!!!

suitejudyblueeyes 05-08-2008 01:53 PM

Thanks for catching that :)

Institches, I am so happy to hear that you had a successful week on Core! Maybe you can maintain some principles of Core as you switch back to Flex, since it seems to help your weight loss? Like watch your carb intake or something? Just be mindful of what you learned last week and I'm sure your success will continue!

Lovely 05-08-2008 02:22 PM

Institches - That's fantastic! I'm so happy you've had a great week :hug:

vdaybaby 05-08-2008 03:49 PM

Awesome job Institches!
and I second what Suite said...
I have been trying that as well..trying to make sure a lot of my foods are core foods!

staja 05-08-2008 04:56 PM

Guys, it's May 8th, and we've already lost over 50 pounds? That is amazing! We *are* amazing!

Chey 05-08-2008 05:01 PM

Wow! You guys are doing great! :) 50 pounds in one week! I didn't sneak on the scale this week, and I am going to try to hold out for Sunday. Hopefully I can add to the total!

gypsylthr 05-08-2008 05:04 PM

Just got back from my weigh-in - down 1.2 lbs. Woohoo!

That brings the group total to 54.8!

Thanks, also to d56alpine for the advice. I may try that. I am trying to increase my workouts, too, and that seems to be working. Slow and steady is OK with me. I just keep reminding myself that I didn't put it all on at one time, either. (In fact, I'm losing at a faster rate than I gained, so nothing wrong with that!)

Congrats to all our losers here!

Lovely 05-08-2008 08:38 PM

Down 2.2 this week! Yahoo!!!! I'm MORE THAN HALFWAY to goal! Like super officially.


Group Total: 57

kelijpa 05-08-2008 09:51 PM

:congrat: Faerie! Great job!

freedomreins 05-09-2008 04:05 AM

Awesome Faerie!! Way to go!!

I was up 0.8 this week :( I'm not surprised, though, considering I've already eaten my flex points plus at least another ten, lol. Next week will be better!!!

Group Total: 56.2
