    I am going to go with this morning's weigh in, even though yesterday's was 151. I ate like a horse at a BBQ tonight and am not anticipating a good number on the scale tomorrow morning. I might not weigh in. I hate it when my self control leaves me. Anyway, I did well overall this week, and I hope to get back on the wagon tomorrow.
  • 5/6: 139.2
    5/11: 138.0
    5/18: 137.8
    5/25: 137.4
    6/1: chickened out
    6/8: 137.0
    6/15: 135.8

    Woo-hoo! 1.2 in a week is a whoosh for me! I am hoping I am firmly below my 137 set point, but will have to watch, and continue the no night eating.

    guac, you are down 22 lbs. in 6 months. How fantastic is that?? And not hope to get back on the wagon - you WILL get back on! Keep posting!

    envelope, nice loss this week!

    mipalj, welcome - congrats on the 4 lbs!

    kel, hope the evil TOM is gone!

    sum, yay! nice loss.

    Slow and steady baby!!
  • All of you are doing so well! Good for you!!! )

    As for me...I am really beginning to wonder if it is possible for me to lose and keep losing! I went ahead and weighed today because I just knew I had lost some b/c my clothes are fitting better and my waist is almost an inch smaller! But....no....I GAINED 2 pounds!!!!
    I don't know if it is my thyroid issues and my meds aren't right or what. I am exercising and watching what I eat....
    I am just a little discouraged this week. Thanks for the shoulders to cry on.

    5/20 164

  • KelStand - If you kept losing inches and your clothes kept getting looser, would it really matter if the number on the scale stayed exactly the same? Please do not think I am lecturing, I am saying it as much for my benefit as yours.
  • You do have a point, Envelope.
  • 141 still, but thats ok
  • KelStand - I will say that I have had weeks like yours, where my clothing seemed looser and I felt smaller, but the scale either went up or stayed the same. I think that your body is changing and shrinking, it just sometimes takes awhile for the scale to catch up. I don't have any scientific explanation for this phenomenon, but I think that if we keep eating right and exercising, the scale will eventually show the results.
  • Just started WW in May. Here is my progress so far.

    Seeing my numbers laid all out there in a weekly progress report makes me a little ashamed of myself for being upset when I don't lose in a given week or I gain back 1 lb. In the grand scheme of things when it is written out like this I am doing awesome and I need to keep reminding my self of that.

    This!!! You are doing awesome and so is everyone in this fight! I think this thread is so helpful, even though some weeks I hate having to post a gain. It's all in the big picture.
  • Ok so this is my first weigh in.

    6/20-135.8 I ate bad today tho expecting a gain. Hopefully still weightloss next week

    I was 163 this morning!!! Yeah! The funny thing is I probably fudged on my diet more this week than I have in a while! I also have been slack on keeping track of my calorie intake! Oh well....I am down a couple of pounds from last week so I am happy!

    I can not wait till I will be posting numbers in the 150's! I know it is coming!

    Keep up the good work everybody and have a good week!
