I weighed in today, down 2.8......yeah!!! 7.2 left to go!!! And a smaller goal for myself, hopefully for next week, to go down 1.2 for a total of a 20lb loss.............
Down .6 at weigh in this morning. That's on the smaller side for me, but last week I had lost 4.8 due to a nasty bout of stomach flu. I was actually expecting to stay the same or gain a smidge this week because I reintroduced food to my body after not eating for 3 days, and I thought that would throw everything out of whack. Needless to say, I'm happy with the loss!
Hi Kelly, hope your feeling better..........I had that nasty stomach thing about 3 weeks ago, and it was awful!!!!! My body freaked out and thats the week I went up .4 but I knew why I went up so I was able to keep my focus and get back the the losing game I love having the holiday mini challenges, it makes it more fun.............like I said the losing "game" I will be playing this game forever, though, weight for me will always be an issue, it is something I am always going to have to make sure I keep a good attitude and make good choices.........
I MET THE FEBRUARY CHALLENGE I gave myself of 8pounds!!!! I soooo thought I wasn't gonna make it, so I was going foward with the St. Patty's one!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh... I'm SOOOO PHYSCED!!!!!!!!! That's 18lbs total down.. only 2 more til an even 20!!!!!!!!
How awesome is that???
So with that being said... I am doing the St. Patty's Day Challenge, but starting afresh today with giving myself 8lbs to lose by then!! I think that's pretty do-able!!! If it ain't, I'll change it once I see its not... . Sooo... yay for me!! hehe
Marion, Thank you, yes I'm feeling much better. In fact, I feel human again! LOL! I have noticed though that the exercise has been kicking my butt ever since I got sick, so while I feel better, my body must still be recooperating.
Sweetcakes, way to go on reaching 20 pounds lost! Good for you!
Hey everyone! Well I went to weigh in this morning and am happy to report I lost 3 lbs! I was nervous about going because 2 weeks ago my scale that I had only had for 3 months stopped working. I was without a scale for 1 week, finally replaced it, wanted to throw the new scale out the window because it was showing a gain of 2 lbs, and then today realized my new scale just stinks!! It weighs heavy!
So anyway....after all that, I am a happy girl today!
I had a pretty good week and am down an additional 1.8 lbs making my total 4.8 for the St Patties day challenge! I'm pretty happy with that so far. I have now lost a total of 48 pounds and am exactly half way to my personal goal of 160. (my WW goal is 169)
Regina, you are doing awesome, keep up the good work!!
I am down 2.2 pounds this week! YIPPEE!! I've had a couple weeks where I was down 1 pound, .8 of a pound, etc., so it's exciting to get back to the numbers I'm used to. I think I definitely need to get back to the basics and re-read my week one materials so I can keep this pace! Have a good week, all!
Kelly Way to go!!!! I was wondering how you are adjusting to your new weight? Is it weird sometimes for you? Or am I the only one who has moments when I forget that I have lost weight? For example, I will be reading messages on here and be thinking, "wow, I can't wait until I weigh what that person does," and I don't even realize at first that I weigh less than that! And when I am out shopping I just automatically head for the plus size section and start looking at the size 20's. Not even realizing I can find clothes in the "normal" section now.
I love my weightloss and have formed many new lifestyle changes, but I don't even realize it is for real sometimes. Yes, I am probably just weird....
