Another happy camper from NJ this week. Another two pounds gone (hopefully to stay gone forever). I feel really good as I set myself a mini goal for another ten pounds gone by the end of April and four of those are, so only six more to go and I feel sure I can do it. I have really had some good weeks eating. I am following in Ali's footsteps and eating veggies by the ton. They really do fill me up, and by having loads with dinner I find myself not even thinking about snacking in the evening, let alone actually doing it
Good luck to everyone else with their weigh ins this week and congrats to all who have already had a loss. Keep up the good work

I have lost 3lb, forgot to mention earlier about that.
I stayed for the whole of the class last night as I had to wait until the end for the leader to give me the booklets etc. Those that gained tried to hide when the leader announced they had gained. What you actually weigh is private, I just don't fancy the bit where she stands up and says these people have lost and these people have gained this week.
I personally plumped for sw as opposed to ww because of the cost & people's comments.

well done leigh

Chris and leigh-r well done

Chris and Leigh well done

Leigh I wouldn't like people to know whenI had gained, although if I lost everyweek I would be a smug so-and-so and want them all to know that I was doing it. Then when I fell off my high horse and gained, I would be hiding in the cupbaord.

Personally I would ask the leader not to mention my loss / gain until I felt more comfortabel in the class - Go for it Leigh, you can do it

totally blew my diet and gained 3 pounds...I got married last week and all the healthy eating went out the window...LOL
Back on program today though...So, hopefully I will have a loss next week...

YAY!!!! I had a session with my dietician today and I have managed another 1 1/2 lb loss, bringing my total thus far to 21lbs, which is my official target to lose so I can be put on the non-active transplant list should I need to be. For me though, I want to lose another 2 stone at least, so I'm still going to be OP!!Well, I'll try!!!

Good for you Teel!!!

Melissa..CONGRATULATIONS on your marriage and don't worry about the 3lbs its to be expected when you've something to celebrate..maybe you could take a page out of Ray's (Carol's husband) book and burn off some calories in bed
Did the day go well? Hope so! and wishing you both all the best for the future
Teel..great job and congrats on getting on the 'list' even though i hope you don't need it...onwards and downwards now.

Well done Teel fantastic job

Melissa congratulations to you both..have a very happy future together

Well as for my weigh in today....It again just goes to show me why I should NOT!!!! get on the scales so often...when todays weigh in time arrived, the scales showed a loss of 2lbs...I have finally broken that 161lb barrier that has been standing in my way since christmas, even with the iminent arrival of TOM, judging by the way I feel this morning that is likely to be in the next couple of days...So I have put myself through **** and misery since wednesday all for nothing.
I am feeling really good about this weigh in just because it was a good one and with TOM being so close now I really feel as though I have started to move again two weeks running I have showed a loss and that is with increasing my calories back up to 1250 a day .
I can feel another shopping trip coming on this afternoon

Ali .... One very happy bunny today

Oh Posy, you bad girl you, for doing "the scale hop"!!

WELL DONE on the loss, but try and keep off them scales as they do loads of misery throughout the week. I KNOW!! I have days when I have been up a pound or two first thing in the morning and been so cross 'cos I know I have been OP, so I have a shower...never know how much all that dead skin weighs! and go to the toilet and get on the scales again sometimes it works....but sometimes I'm EVEN HEAVIER than on the first weigh.You'd have thought I'd have learnt my lesson by now. I said I'd throw them scales out when I reached my official target....but I can't bear to part with them.....

CONGRATULATIONS TO MRS. MARRIED MELISSA!!!!!We'll know where you are spending your time if you don't post that often for a few days!!!!!

Hello to SmilingSal and cat90 and TQ if you happen to lurk in....

Well done Ali
Teel..i know that 'scale' feeling all too well..i've done the scale 'jig' so many times you would thing i was a 'river dancer' and all to get a reading that i like

Sorry girls....I'm only human and I would rather give in to the temptation of jumping on the scales rather than the temptation of food
Teel I know what you mean too I think it will be impossible to throw my scales away, after so long jumping on them they feel more a part of me than my shoes

Hey Cathy, just think of all the exercise river dancers get. maybe we should incorporate the scale jig into our daily exercise program

Ali

Well done to all those who have lost this week.

Hello I haven't fallen by the wayside, have just been busy.

Managed to lose 2lbs this week, but some miracle, I didn't work very hard at it and didn't deserve it but I got it and I am keeping it off. Am going to be so on program this week it will be unbelievable.

Meant that I got my 10% key ring last night - has been a long time in coming, but I have reached it now

Congratulations to Melissa and to Teel for reaching that list and to Ali for being even lighter. And to everyone I missed
