Chantal, I know just how you feel. Most of the time I just feel like I'm treading water. This week I am down 1.8lbs. That is the same 1.8lbs I was up last week, so I don't feel like I have made any progress. But at least it is not up. Hopefully, I will be able to keep the momentum going this week.
How about everyone else? How did your weigh ins go? Let's hear it!
Way to go Terry!!
I don't blame you on waiting Tina!!
I weighed here this morning, and I am up a couple pounds again. I've been taking the pain meds again. This crazy weather is driving me crazy!!! I hate to go for the official weigh in tonight, but I will. I'm going to tell her to just write it down, smile, and don't say a word to me about it.
I'm frustrated already. I have absolutly no willpower.
This week I am +1. So basically, I'm right where I started.
It's so crazy how it takes such hard work and dedication just to lose one stinkin' pound but it only takes one day of semi-self indulges and you gain that pound right back. Oh well, it's a new week. I'll just have to do better.
Seriously willpower and motivation are a huge problem for me. I have a husband who loves to go get ice cream at night and it's so hard for me not to go with him. Then even when I go thinking I will make a smart choice say sherbert as soon as we get there I find myself ordering a reeses peanut butter sundae. Urgh!
Oh, my goodness! You've had one of those sundaes!
I heard that it was a gillion grams of fat. My husband would dearly love one of those.
You can do this! We can all do this!
Beach Babe, ice cream is my downfall! Come on over to the Chatters Thread and help us solve all the problems of the world!!
I weighed at weigh-in last night, and I did tell her to just smile and not say a word. lol Our leader did suggest to everyone that we give CORE a try for a week if we are having trouble with FLEX. I'm just having trouble because I don't do it as strict as I should, and I don't always journal.
I'm in the same situation. I weighed in yesterday because I can't make the meeting today and I was up 1.4 lbs. But I know why. I didn't get a chance to eat lunch until an hour before I went in to be weighed. So that may have helped increase my weight. I think from now on, I'm going to stick to the Noon meetings on Fridays. There are fewer people there. The meeting last night was really crowded and I felt out of place. By the way, this was my second meeting. Today starts week 2 on the meetings/food plan for me.
Mama, is your name Summer? I had a student named Summer many years ago. I also had one named Spring and another one named Autumn. Didn't have them all at the same time though.
I would rather go to a morning meeting, but the one here in town is at night. I really like the leader. There is a morning meeting in another town near here. I've gone to it if I know I can't make it to the night meeting.
Welcome to the group, and good luck on your weight loss journey!! Join us over on the Thursday Chatters Thread. We talk and talk there about a zillion different things!!
You know whats funny Terry?? I was up 1.8 this week! lol I expected it though. After last Thursdays weigh in, I just ate whatever I wanted for the rest of the week and started back OP on Thursday. It is quite amazing just how easy it is to put the weight back on.
Anyway, I'm over it now. Back to plain oatmeal and unsweetened apple sauce. I'm going to give Core another try but ultimately I think I'm going to switch back over to flex.
We gain, we lose...this is the life we chose ladies. lol Good luck and thanks for being here!
Good luck to all of us. I've done so good, until lunch today.
My sister took me out and I ate dessert--carrot cake, and not the healthier kind. Oh well, I'll just exercise extra this afternoon.
I'm soooooo full right now that it'll have to wait.
