I saw a 154 this morning!!! Crazy stuff

Tuscany - holding steady in the 130s! Awesome

Hey Pixi !! Welcome back

Jacqui - glad you got back to the 83 I can't wait until you get to that 178 !!

Soon2beskinny - your post reminded me to drink more water. I have a tendency to eat more sodium than I should, and the water really helps. Thanks!

Rhiko - Amazing job on the run. I just worked my way up to running 1 measly mile this week, I am sooo impressed with you!

Minneey I have so been there! If Will Power fairy visits, tell him I will need him at the beginning of next month for tests and finals. My neuro class sent me into an anxiety binge once this semester already, I do not need a second one!

Learning to Live even if you bloat up a bit, most people tend to have a nice whoosh at the end to balance it out

Rhiko wow 12km I'm amazed with you! I just did my first 5k a couple weeks ago, but I can still only run for about a minute at a time before I have to stop and breathe lol congrats and keep it up!

My whoosh is continuing but slowing. I am hoping it pushes me into the 240s again before abandoning me. I think Sat I will choose my official goal weight for the month as the whoosh should be pretty much done then.

Woohoo! This is the first time I've seen a 75 in 5 months!

SW: 76.2 kgs
CW: 75.9 kgs (-0.3 kgs)
GW: 75.5 kgs

I'm not a big fan of Will Power. He's way too fickle! Most of the time I do better by out-witting him with structures, strategies, rules, tools, techniques, and tips. They are much more reliable for me.

Yay! I'm down to 181 today! That's 30 lbs overall! 178 mini-goal, I'm on my way!

Turtle, yay on the 154!

Joy, Congrats on the 75!

183, so glad to see your scale behaving itself again! :

Rhiko, great job on the running! Let us know how the Swiss ball goes!

Boatingmommy, congrats on the lb down! C'mon 150's!

Pixikat, we missed you too! So glad you are back and on track!

Minneey, you can do this! C'mon now!

Wannaskip, Great job on the loss!

LfChanges, Congrats on the big drop! The spikes upward usually don't last long either and the shifts downward eventually stay down, so good job being patient! And good for you on the dips!

Learning_2_Live, the good news is that after TOM, you should have a whoosh coming! C'mon Whoosh Fairy!

Woodstock, yay! So glad to see a new low for you this month!

Rsadler, great job! That exercise is paying off!

Kelijpa, I'm sure you'll find the overall trend is downward! Congrats on the drop!

Mainecyn That's okay not to weigh everyday. Congrats on the lb down!

I appear to be pretty stable, even though I haven't been particularly "good." But today is a new day, so hopefully I can keep it together. I'd like to make it to 158.X for tomorrow. I will try not to eat after Circuit Training tonight. I had the munchies after last night's Kettlebell class and so I ate a bunch of cashews, an apple and some medjool dates. Ah well, such is life...

Good Luck to everyone today!!

I've had a couple of observations from colleagues (who i know well) this week observing that I've lost weight. It feels really great

Gardenerjoy Congrats on seeing 75! Also, i appreciate and agree with your comments on the reliability of techniques other then will power... 'If i don't have it in my home, I can't eat it nights after dinner while watching TV' is my go to rule.

Jacqui_D Way to go on your 30lb Milestone - Awesome accomplishment!

Turtle11 - i KNOW how good it feels to see that 154 - yay!

Good afternoon everybody,

Checking in for the day. No gain from yesterday, so that's progress.

Thanks Jacqui_D. I'm always reading everyone's posts about the fluctuations, and I think that's the thing that's keeping me positive. The reality that it happens to everyone.

Nov 1: 144 kg
Nov 8: 144 kg (-0)

I was at 143.1 on thursday (-2 pounds) and this morning (friday 8th) it went back up to 144. It must be an unusual water thing. I hope it comes off this weekend.

Ahhh , checking this thread feels good... Thanks all the personals - had a brief but flighty visit from will power. Also waiting for the earring fairy to return my lost earring please (have turned my house upside down this evening). The whoosh fairy might as well come along for the party then :-)

So, am back to my start weight (yay jacqui we got there!) after last weekends errr 'hiccup'. Bit worried about the weekend ahead as I'm going to Holland but don't want another week set back, so am aiming for -
Healthy dinner tomorrow
Only three drinks tomorrow eve
Only two stooopen waffles over the weekend (I'm addicted)
Healthy lunch sat
Healthy day all day Sunday! Salad for lunch. Soup for tea.

Sorry if this is about detailed, just need to put it out there to keep me focussed - in the absence of WP joy, am following your advice :-)
