  • DLS1 - Way to go on making it to 60 lb milestone.

    Inatizzy - hope you make your November goal.

    149.0 down a little and happy about that. Kids had a school performance yesterday so I took them out for ice cream afterwards. Not bad for going over calories.
  • Slipped up a bit (a lot) yesterday, weight is up by 2.6 pounds.

    146.2
  • 148.2 - no change. i'm looking at that as a positive. at least it didn't go up
  • 148.0 back to my low now I got to get it lower. Will have a big temptation tonight. My dd is going to be making cupcakes. Need to save calories so I can have one w/o frosting. But it going to be hard to save calories to end of day. Wish me luck.
  • I had a perfect day yesterday! I ate OP, exercised TWICE Not only did I lose the bloat from day before, I dropped another 1.2 pounds.

    Today is my birthday, and I think my scale decided to give me a nice present. -- Tomorrow will be another story. I have a very busy day ahead of me partying A lunch and dinner out and drinks with friends late at night. -- But I feel in control, I am letting myself enjoy today, and I will be back OP tomorrow! -- I will still be mindful what I will have; salad with grilled chicken or salmon for lunch ( I LOVE salads), filet for dinner and I think I will limit myself to 2 vodka and clubsoda with lime drinks with friends. My calories should stay below 2000, and all will be low carb. -- I walked for an hour outdoors at very high speed, so I did get some exercise in as well.

    I lost 4 pounds since last Friday. I am really hoping to lose 2.4 pounds this week... 140 sounds delicious.

    142.4 this am.
  • that sounds amazing - and happy birthday!
  • I "almost" stuck to my plan, broke down and had chocolate mousse for dessert.

    The birthday damage; 1.8 pounds. Back OP today.

    144.2
  • 147.8 survived the cupcake making with dd and had a small drop. Now to survive the weekend.
  • 147.2 I am literally dancing in my house. We went out to dinner last night. I had a small steak. I was expecting water weight cause they usually over salt the food. So I'm rejoicing with a drop.

    7 lbs to goal. Hoping to drop 2 more by end of November. This is a totally motivating day. I feel like I can really do it.

    Hope everyone else is having a great weekend.
  • So happy for you hiddenstar!! You can totally drop 2 pounds in 15 days.

    I am not weighing myself today, I had too much salty stuff yesterday, and I am not wanting to see that higher number on scale. I will focus on drinking my water today, and gym. My weight should be back to "normal" tomorrow.

    I am hoping to be close to 140 by the end of the week. That is 2.4 pound drop, tho; and TOM is due later this week, so I may be dreaming too big! -- To be honest with you, 141.something would make me excited! Or to maintain during TOM week. -- I can not help but eat like mad 2 days leading to TOM. I am like an animal at that point.
  • 143.6

    You'll get back down there!

    Was 139.4 yesterday and 138.8 today. Looks like I'm done with the 140s!
  • Congrats DraconicDreams!! Looks like you had your weekend loss

    I'll see you at the 130's thread, hopefully in a week or two!
  • Draconicdreams - on making it to 130's.

    Sum38 - you probably still have some water weight from birthday.

    147.6. I forgot about tom. He is going to show up at end of month. Hope he doesn't ruin my goals too much. I hate the extra hunger a few days before.
  • hiddenstar My TOM is due on Thursday and I am afraid. Last month I ate and ate. I could not stop. -- It is bad enough without eating; I always "gain" a few pounds of water weight, and the extra food on top of that...yikes.

    I am vowing to stay OP this month. I need to have some will power somewhere

    Luckily, TOM is coming around the 20th, that leaves 10 days to get rid of TOM bloat for the official month end weigh in.

    And I hope that you are right about my water weight from this weekend...do I dare a small whoosh tomorrow morning?
