Thank you guys for your encourgement.
I should take it as a chance to build character when the going is tough.

Well weekend went well until late Sunday evening. Had to move stuff in the freezer and found some hash browns. Needed space in the freezer so figured I would cook them. Guess I thought the empty space in me from losing 19 pounds needed to be filled! Well did not eat all of them but still!!!! Yes I kow better. The good thing is there are no more in the freezer. Back on plan. Scale shows down a pound so still okay.

WI#1 -10.6 Wish it was more but i'm happy

Hello everyone!

I came back from my 7 day trip Saturday. I was able to log on this site almost every day, at least for a few minutes at night to read some posts, which is nice

As far as IP, here's the breakdown of my trip:

The good:

1) I didn't have anything that is not allowed on the plan, which means I survived movie theaters, disneyland trip, birthday celebration , etc. etc

2) I got in my water everyday

The not-so-good:

1) On my worst day I had: An egg-white omelette with chicken and 2 bars. That's it. I just didn't have the time to have anything else. No veggies, lettuce or a 3rd pack. Bad day all around, but simply there was nothing else I could have, and though I hate skipping meals, it was either that or having something that wasn't OP.

2) I couldn't get in 4 cups of veggies every single day, but except for the busiest day I made sure I had at least 2 every day.

3) I skipped the lettuce a couple of days as well.

Overall I'm pretty happy with how I did. Now it's back to being 100% OP including veggies and lettuce and definitively 3 packs a days.

I did have to peak at the scale when I came back, because I was afraid that not eating enough might have stalled me, but as per my unofficial scale I lost! I have my WI on Wednesday, I can't wait for my official number then!

Have a great OP day everyone!

Busymom-You did awesome!!!!

Congrats! Keep up the good work!!!

Busymomx4. . . you lost 3.6% of your body weight in one week. . .that's pretty incredible.

what a great NSV!

Wow, you're good to have figured that out, i wouldn't have been able to even if i wanted to. Thanks, it does sound good that way, lol

Great feeling isn't it when you have supportive friends and family?

Its a LOSS, remember that no matter how small that number is your body is changing in many ways. IT will come off next week you will see.

10.6lbs loss and you want more???...girl that is awesome!!! and you were nervous!....great job!

Looks like we are having some losses this week which is great and its only Monday!!....I hope that is a good sign for the rest of us!

What does NSV mean?

None scale victory / No scale victory

Well its monday..im sick with some kind of blah sinus cold..Who gets sick in the summer..SERIOUSLY!!
Well its time for a round of bootcamp..see how that goes..
I dont think the scale is co-operating.. i know i didnt gain 3 pounds overnight..my guess..its cause i forgot to drink my water two days in a row..der!

Oh well..onward and upwards! Have a great day all!

Good post you found 2ROLLERCOAST! Lots of good advice!

I am at day 49 on IP-7 weeks!!! I don't weigh in until Wed. am with a new coach. I'm trying to adapt to my new school schedule! I just didn't want to weigh in the evenings so I will go at 7:15am to weigh, measure, and get products! I hope this works out for me!

With my big loss last week, I am now in my "stall" week. It seems to be a pattern with me, lose 1 week, then stall the next! I am not discouraged because I am getting into smaller clothes, so I know I am losing inches!

I hope everyone has a great Monday!

Happy Monday you all, sounds like people are doing amazing I went camping all weekend and pretty much kept OP. The only thing I did was have fattier meats then I would normally Plus a couple diet ginger ales (splenda)
Tried on a "goal" pair of capri's this morning and they fit!!! Will have to buy a new pair of "goal" pants yay!
