163,8
Seems more realistic. Also, been several days out of the "obese" -category, and only overweight. If this sticks for a few days more, I think I can officially declare myself "only" overweight!
Good Morning Chicks. I've seen 162 on the scale two mornings in a row, thinking that the no p.m. snacking may have helped this. Going grocery shopping today, gonna pile up on fruit and vegies snacks. Still only walking, but one thing at a time.
Chub, will take a handful of nuts with me to town and see how that helps the whole evening food issue, tfs.
superB,, the official 160's dance,lol.
pigeon, on the new weight classification, not longer obese - that'a awesome!
Maui, Are you weight lifting or good at doing you aerobics? Can't seem to get my act together but I know this has helped me drop in the past.
Still at 163,8. I feel good about this. There was such a rapid loss last week that it was hard for me to believe it was "legit", so weirdly I feel at ease for stalling a bit.
And today I can go grocery shopping again! Looking forward to filling my cart with fruit and veggies. Should exercise as well, I didn't go yesterday as my body was so tired and achy after a 6-hour tea ceremony practice on Sunday. That one is a tough sport!
165.9 today. This is where I realize how addicted to the scale I am. I'm sitting here running through the whole litany in my head: +3 pounds in 2days. Stayed on plan. So how is that even possible???? I had a hysterectomy so no TOM. Nothing salty and I calibrated the scale. I'm about to throw it across the room. Uggggghhhhhh!!!
Welcome and nice job SuperB!
Workinglikeadog I love our official dance! You're getting so close to 150! Have you found that thread yet?
Pigeon glad you got to go shopping but I confess I've never heard of a tea ceremony practice. I'll have to google it.
Don't sweat it Chub. Yesterday I was 168.4, and I calibrated the scale too. Today, 166.6. These things happen, it can't always be a lower number. I know it sucks...I was pretty put out yesterday myself.
Thanks for the dance, workinglikeadog and thanks for the welcome, Chubabub!
I am so eager to get there. I have set a smaller, shorter time frame goal so that it seems much more in reach.
Going to the gym this evening, which is where I weight myself, and I just KNOW I will be at 168 - I can feel it! :-)
Chubabub, damn that scale! What about ditching it for a week or so?
And yeah I do Japanese tea ceremony. Still a beginner though. But it's the thing that made me finally take up the task of losing weight - I felt so incredibly clumsy and big when entering the tea room for the first time, and realized that I can't do it in the long term if I don't lose some weight and gain some muscle to make it easier for my knees.
Workinglikeadog, thank you! It indeed feels awesome. BTW love your avatar.
163.4 today. Managed to avoid all the unhealthy stuff while grocery shopping, even if I was a bit hungry. That was another win!
163.6. So it's a plateau huh, can't seem to get to the 163 and under no matter what. Well, I know eventually it will happen. I'll try to treat this one as training for maintenance - that is, doing the "right thing" to my body, even if there's nothing to report on.
Scale at the gym is broken, so I have NO idea where I'm at! I actually find weighing daily to be beneficial to my motivation, as opposed to some who find it is demotivating. Have ordered my OWN fancy scale that will tell me digitally my weight, body fat and muscle percentage! Should arrive next week! :-)
on the new weight classification, not longer obese - that'a awesome!
