  • Quote: Im terrified to weight in on thursday! I had such an awful weekend! Went to my favorite restaurant of all time (and had paella.. which is mostly rice) so I have a feeling I wont see a loss and will be lucky if I dont see a gain..

    I totally hear you! We went out to eat for the first time in a long time last night, and I got pasta and had wine--calorie bombs! I worked out twice yesterday, and am headed to the gym in the morning, but still. However, I really had a nice time with my husband, and it was well worth it to have a treat!
  • ^Plus I haven't had wine since the summer--oh how I've missed Moscato!!
  • 168 for the fourth day in a row. Come one scale, budge!
  • I think this may be the thread for me. After losing between 5-7lbs I seems to be hovering around the 160-162 mark. This has been going on since mid October and I can't seem to get out of the 160s! My goal is to make it to the gym everyday for the rest of the week (I missed today due to a severe headache).

    I am also trying to avoid those sweet treats I love so much! I am trying so hard to reach my goal wait by the end of July and if I keep stalling it isn't going to happen. I need to find my focus so perhaps this thread can help get me past that 160 hurdle!
  • Good luck dizzysoi! Only half a pound til halfway done--nice!

    Welcome Veela! Is there anything you can do to shake things up? I recommend lots of water, and fiber and protein to keep you full!
  • 167.0lbs this morning!

    Wow, those two pounds went fast! Great job!
  • Quote: Wow, those two pounds went fast! Great job!
    Thanks!!!
  • 168 again T_T five days straight
  • I think I need to add more protein to my breakfast and lunch I got really hungry at work today and ended up buying a snack which was not that healthy. I think I need some healthy high protein breakfast ideas perhaps there is some type of meat I can eat in the morning which is also lean and healthy.

    I managed to make it to the gym which was great and I am challenging myself to eat lentils or beans at least once a day to up my fiber intake. Lets hope those pounds start melting away!
  • 166lbs this morning!!!!

    Veela- one of my favorites is scrambled eggs with turkey bacon, onions and mushrooms. Unfortunately, I can't find turkey bacon in Brazil so I have to do without but it really is delicious.

    Also, I always have a planned snack between breakfast and lunch. Sometimes just fruit but the best one is cottage cheese+apples+cinnamon.
  • Did my real weigh in today...160.1! Arg!!! Just 2 ounces and I am out of the 160's!!!
  • weighed 172.5 today!!
  • *snuffle*
    A very sad 173.0 starting point this morning. Having gained back basically AAAAALL of my weight is pretty tragic, but. Here I am, it's time to change!!! (again!)

    I joined a Toronto (my city) weight loss challenge yesterday and will be competing with a few other ladies, and kicking butt, as well as posting here once a day.

    Dizzy:
    Ugh, the 5 day plateau. I know some people talk about 3 week long plateaus and how frustrating they are, but... if you're like me, 5 days without even a .1 lb loss is AGONY. Keep with it, though! You know you're doing things right and it'll drop!

    Veela:
    I second the turkey bacon. Insanely fewer calories with a FRACTION of the amount of fat... and very yummy when I cook it to a crisp like I like it. Also, turkey jerky is a really great snack-- 50 calories for 1/4 of the package I get with something like... 0.3 grams of fat. Top it off with a tonne of water to counteract any excess sodium, and you're golden.

    Running:
    166!! Good job! ....I will be at 166 in no time. Keep running, I'm chasing you... muwahha.

    Buu:
    AHHH!!! Okay, like a day. Maybe two or three, depending upon whether your body feels like cooperating. You'll be in the 150s in NO time at all!

    Alicia:
    Woot! 172.5, we're so close to each other! 'Cept you're way taller than me, damnit. I'll be trying to catch up in my next weight-ins!!!

    See you all sooooon....
  • I was 159.2 Sunday and weighed myself this morning at 161.1 Grrr! Hopefully with some good workouts this week I'll be back down by Sunday...What are you guys' weightloss goals weekly? 1-2lbs? I try to weigh myself only once a week so I don't get too discouraged ... :P
