  • Hey, gals! I have weighed myself for the first time in days this morning and it was 147.4 lbs. TOM is coming and I am so stressed that I have been constipated. I have been HUNGRY and CRAVING like crazy too.

    So...

    SW : 147.2 lbs
    GW : 144.2 lbs which is higher than my lowest weight. :-<


    Congrats, Sum, and hello to the 140's and kudos to Only Believefor her progress and perseverance.
  • Congrats on winning the prior challenge, Sum!

    I'm in again (my scale is odd...it records 1/4 and 1/2 pounds, so I will round to the nearest 1/4 pound):

    SW: 142.75
    2% (rounded) = 2.75
    GW = 140.00
  • Sw: 215.8
    2% = 4.3
    Gw: 211.5
  • SuperHeroTeacher - did you celebrate teacher day yesterday? I kept telling myself that I should receive virtual flowers by my students, but alas not. **kidding**

    Does your scale give you odd numbers?

    --------------------------------

    SW : 147.2 lbs
    CW : 146.2 lbs
    GW : 144.2 lbs
  • Had sushi night and all that sodium showed up on my scale this morning. Amazing how body reacts to salt. My rings feel super tight. Time for some tea.

    I didn't even know it was teacher day yesterday, or I WOULD have celebrated - LOL! Actually I did have dinner out with a teacher friend, so maybe we subconsciously celebrated

    And this is what actually sticking to plan looks like:

    Sw: 215.8
    2% = 4.3
    CW: 211.6!!! Still far from my low of 203.8 just a few weeks ago, but moving the right direction...
