Wednesday Night Weigh-In
 

Hi All,

I think that I should start again with my posted weight. On the thread about swimming, I put I was 17st 10lbs (that was true on my scales). I think that I should use SW's weigh-in for these posts, as I can't hop on and off those all week, and record the lose's and not the gain's. (If you know what I mean)

So here goes......

Weight on 16.1.2002 = 18st 2lbs
Weight on 23.1.2002 = 17st 11.5lbs
Lose this week = 4.5lbs.
Goal Weight = 11st 7lbs
Total to lose = 6st 4.5lbs

God that looks awful....88.5lbs to lose!!!!!!!! That is so depressing, how did I ever let it get this bad?

:eek:

Bye for now, Love Debz

Hi everyone

Debz I think you are right to use the sw's scales to record your weightlosses, as you say you can't hop on them everyday and we all know how much our bodyweight can fluctuate on a daily basis.
As for the comment about your starting weight and the amount you need to lose looking aweful and depressing. Well I certainly know how you feel when you say how did you ever get that bad. Well I think we all ask ourselves that when we finally accept it and start doing something about it.
I started off weighing 25 stone 4lbs and a goal weight of 10stone 2lbs meaning 213lbs to lose...now how depressing was that.
You look now and say 88.5lbs to lose...thats depressing...I now have 87lbs to lose and I say only another 87lbs to go :)

Don't get depressed about it, it wont be 88.5lbs for very long, just smile and enjoy watching those numbers get smaller along with the dress sizes :)

Hi

This thread is getting a bit long and it might lock soon - so I have started another one

Debz, how nice to have someone else come and join us on our weekly weigh in. I'll add the weight that you want to lose starting from what you just posted in to our grand total next week - so it won't include this week's loss - but what an amazing start! The best way to actually picture what you have lost it is to go in to a supermarket and stack up 4.5lbs of lard! It really brings it home to you just what you have achieved. Like Ali said, there are some of us who have more to lose than others, but you will always find companionship and help here.
