Thanks 5 days of sore muscles, LOL. I was up to 183, so.. whatevs. :lol: I did bounce down to 179.0 once, but then worked outside painting the deck in 101 degree heat that day so the next morning it was SO GONE. lol. Sigh.

Must keep going! It's only the 12th!!! :carrot:

I am going to bite the bullet and get a new scale because it put me at 177.4 this morning then 178.6 then 178.4. :dizzy: PS I'm going to dye all of my hair FIRE RED. Scared but excited at the same time. :faint:

Woo hoo.

I took my new scale back and got an old school spring scale (good brand though, Homedics). I couldn't take the digital unreliability. I realize they aren't made to be stepped on and off of 5 times in a row, but I feel it should NOT give me a different number every time. I also feel like it should reflect a lower weight from fully clothed with full bladder to naked with empty bladder, especially when it reads to the .1, when it doesn't it drives me insane. I couldn't take it anymore! :o

The hair sounds exciting! Post a pic once you do it!

Steph- You took the scale back?! Well, I got the same thing you did (the WW scale with the horizontal stripes- it was the cheapest scale and I wanted a .1 lb increments, not .2. Now I don't know if I want to take it back because the new scale weighed me at 176.4 as soon as I got home, lol and old scale says 178.8. Whatcha think??

I'm off to do my hair. Wish me luck!!! I will post a pic afterwards.

Well after my initial LOVE of that scale (and I seriously DID love it, probably too much), I wanted to break it! It was driving me insane. I loved so many things about it, but it was seriously making me crazy!

I decided I'm getting TOO obsessed and that a spring scale would help with that. That's just me though!

7/13 155.4 (-.4)

Hmmm...I'm beginning to think of myself as a piece of marble and every .2 or .4 of a pound a chisel sliver that will one day reveal a masterpiece.:D

Sw 179.6

That took FOREVER for my hair! I probably am going to go a bit darker since this shade is a bit brighter than I like but I still like it.

Sorry about it being a bit big but I don't feel like resizing, etc.

177.5 this morning, I'll take it! ;)

:rofl: Jez, your comment completely cracked me up! So many times, especially in these last couple of weeks, when I've thought the very same thing. It's not that I struggle in this area, but I always know there is a down tick of the scale when I "succeed"!

lol Jez, how about some prunes?

amandie: I can't see the pic either.

I'm going to have to do my 'official' weigh in tomorrow instead of Monday since I'm headed to my sisters to do some visiting, I'll keep my fingers crossed that I'm going to make up for that 2 lb gain last week lol.

Instead of the 5 lbs to lose this month I've got to lose 7, I should probably just change my goal to the standard 10. I'll see how the scale treats me tomorrow haha.

We still have over 2 weeks left ladies! Lots of time to get those pounds off.

LOL @ poop comment but it's true! I usually count weigh-ins after #2s.

I just edited it, hopefully you all can see it now??

Amandie, I LOVE your hair!!!! You are so pretty BTW!


I'm in the weigh-after-number-two crowd as well!!!

yep, i only weigh after
 

no weighing until after #2 and not a bite of breakfast either

I used to hold off on the weighing and the breakfast until after a nice long reading session on the loo. Unfortunately pregnancy seems to mean constipation. It also means no smoking and limited caffeine, which I've always found very useful for getting things moving down there. And it means having to eat more, which means more sitting around in my digestive tract waiting to come out. Sigh.

Probably should forget that goal weight for the month. But I'd still love to get below 196, just because then I'll be under 14 stone, even if only very very briefly. (Of course, what's more likely is I won't see under 14 stone for a year, and instead will suddenly and dramatically start gaining. Baby better be worth it!)

SW: 168

Yay! I think I'm going to have to change my goal to 158.. maybe I'll have to think about it haha.

I am getting frustrated with how slowly this going, especially at such a high weight. I am staying on plan and have added in a 30 minute walk 4-5 times a week. At least the scale is moving in the right direction. I would really like to be solidly below 270 by the end of July.

I weigh first thing after waking but that's always all over the place. Then I drink a glass of water, eat my breakfast, drink my coffee, take my poo, and then weigh myself before my shower and after. After the shower is always the lowest but I officially count the one before the shower, which is lower than the first in the morning weight.

Stephanie- Thank you! :)

Way to go, Jez!!

I am going to do this, but I am going to drop 6 lbs instead of 10 lbs. I am at 196 as of this morning.

Current wt: 196

GW 216.6

Down 1.5

Walker: I made my goal 5 lb this month, works better for me. I thought I had made it and could aim for a lower one but urgh with this heat/humidity I don't think next week's weigh in is going to be kind to me :(

Man, talk about a late joiner, but my goal is (starting today) 7 pounds down by August 1st... 187 starting/current, 180 the goal!

Sure, it's only 2.8lbs down since the start of the month. That's fine, since I'm pregnant and not really going all out on the losing at the moment. But 196 is fourteen stone exactly, and that's making me grin massively. :D

@Brid....can i ask where in Yorkshire you live? I 'm a Brit but i live in the US, have done for 7 years and i'm originally from Yorkshire :)
