Morning Ladies! How are we all doing this Monday morning?

Let's have lots of losers this week, let's finish off this month strong...only three days left of September!

I'd love to be a loser. However, i can not get myself to even get on the scale. Do you think it's crazy to wait to weigh myself until I notice a difference in say the fitting of my clothes? Also I have the tendency to obsess so once i weigh in it's hard for me not to do it daily, then my mood coincides with my weight and if i'm not happy with that number which i'm sure i won't be then everyone, including myself suffers. I haven't weighed myself in about 6 mos. The doctor weighed me but i refused to look. Any opinions?

Insekur - if weighing makes you nutso - don't do it! It sounds like you know how it affects you (negatively) and I think you're being smart to avoid it.

Classes started today - oh boy is this year going to be hectic. But I made it and I am on plan too!

Insekur: I agree with jenicra. And you don't need to know your lbs to know if you're healthy or not. My long term goal is based on clothing I want to wear again (although I swear it'll be outta style by the time I get there) rather than a certain weight. Forget the scale. Focus on getting healthy!

Insekur: How about just weighing in once a week? Not everyday. Our weight flectuates a lot so just pick a day or even maybe once a month? Sometimes when we see ourselves in the mirror everyday it's hard to see a difference, but sometimes it plays out on the scale. It is hard to face the truth..I know I've been there...I couldn't believe what I weighed, but to me it was a motivator to get on the scale and see that I had lost another lb. Also knowing that I was going to weigh in on a particular date really helped me stay right as far as what I was eating. I would really question myself about that extra donut, knowing I was going to possible see the difference in my weigh in (not that one donut was going to make me lose) but I think you know what I'm trying to say but then again, you know yourself best, and what worked for me may not be what works for you...just wanted you to hear my opinion in what worked for me Good Luck to you, you can do it!

yeah, it's Thursday! I kept looking at the calendar on my desk...I thought it was Wednesday. So whew, glad I'm not having to redo Wednesday. It was a long day to say the least.

So, toniight is my favorite show, the apprentice...but I guess it's not going to air because of the presidential debate....??? Does anyone know? How sad & pathetic am I?

I also missed the Bachelor...note to self: invest in some tapes to record it

Everyone have a great day!

Hello eveyone!

Sorry I have not posted in about a week. School started and I think i bit off more than I could chew and on top of that I am really sick...I have to go the doctor tomorrow and there is a good chance it is pnemonia...

Which really scares me...My lungs have been really sore and today they MADE me leave work because I could not breathe! It scared me but the soonest I could get to see a doctor was in the morning, I could not afford the hospital.

So we will see how it goes...I dont think that I am going to lose weight this week....maybe gain...I had to go leave town for my weekend...crazy family stuff and had to take care of them.

Talk to everyone soon

Tye
