OFFICAL "weigh in" thread

[Mona]

Hey Linda, you're not alone...I too am "up" 1.5 pounds this week!

I knew I would be. Last week was kind of a "different" week here for us mealwise...was not making proper meals and I knew I would gain, and I did. Oh well, I am not discouraged...I am at the weight now where I am going to be up and down and up and down on a regular basis, and that's OK as long as it's not more "up" than "down".

 

[LindaL]

No, Mona, I DID lose...not gain...LOL! I just meant it was up 1.5 lbs from the 2 lbs. I "thought" I lost yesterday, which would be a 1/2 lb LOSS! But, I weighed myself again after I came back in from the barn and doing horse chores and it was back down to the 2 lb LOSS again...yay!! I'm going with that!!

:yes

I "think" that makes 14 lbs lost now!! WooHoo!!

If you guys would like I can give you my inability to eat. You would surly lose weight, even though I am not. I would just love to be able to eat again and have it sit ok with me. So far I can no longer have pizza, anything slightly spicy, and lasagna. I made it for dinner one night but wasn’t feeling well so didn’t have any. I finally had to toss the leftovers as the smell was making me nauseas.

 

[Mona]

OOPS! Sorry for misunderstanding Linda...CONGRATULATIONS on your LOSS!

Hopefully soon you'll be past that constant nauseous feeling Ashley!

 

[LindaL]

Awww Ashley! I remember those days! But, at least you have a reason NOT to try to lose weight...and in a few months (or less) you will be able to eat without getting sick. I'd rather lose weight the way I am as I could never be a bulimic...YUCK!!!

 

[Ashley]

Linda, that is what I told my doc last week at my check up. I dont know how they do it. I have only fully puked once, but lots of dry heaves and just acid. The garbage can did it to me tonight.

I did get the ok to gain little to no weight so that is my goal. I eat alot of fruits and veggies. I go in streaks somedays I could eat the whole house, the other days I dont even want to look at food.

I dont know how you all weight yourself so often. It makes me crazy up a lb one day down 2 the next up 2 the next.. I only weigh now once every 3-4 weeks and measure then to. I have lost only about 28 lbs but have lost inches as well- hit a plateau for a while but added in some weights to my 2 hour a day cardio program and now it is starting to come off again..

ugh depressing to think of how much more to go but at least it is to a point where people even those who see me daily are starting to really notice..

 

[Mona]

WOW...GREAT JOB Lisa!! CONGRATULATIONS on that fantastic weight loss! I don;t weigh every day, or every other day fo that matter. I make myself wait until Mondays to weigh in each week. I step on the scale only once, first thing in the morning, and that is the weight I record for the week. It would not be good for me if I waited 3-4 weeks, as I seem to need to see more immediate type results to keep me motivated and on track. I am sure I would lose interest too quickly otherwise...but that's just me.

Great job ladies!! I also only weigh myself about once a week- no sense doing it daily. I have not weighed though for the last couple of weeks but I think I have dropped another pound. Will weigh at the end of this week and see where I am at. I HOPE I have dropped a bit more.

Am still trying to keep up on lots of fruits and veggies... some days I dont do enough so try even harder the next day to watch it if I've had a 'sloppy' day. It just is not coming off very fast, but I know I still need to excercise more too.. come on Linda, we can do it!

 

[Mona]

Well, I never made it on here yesterday to post for weigh in day, but I did weigh in and was down 1/2 lb.

 

[LindaL]

Due to site issues last week, I didnt come here and weigh in...so...I am UP 1 lbs this week...*sigh* I ate bad last week...only have 6 weeks before I go on my trip...I need to buckle down and get serious!!

 

[Mona]

Don't feel bad Linda...I gained 4.5 lbs!

No excuse...just OINK, OINK, OINK!

 

[Ashley]

I have 2 pounds I would gladly give anyone who is looking...........

 

[HGFarm]

No thanks Ashley! LOL

 

[LindaL]

With all the excitement yesterday after having a new foal born, I forgot to check in yesterday!

Stayed the same as last week...even tho I did not stay on "eating plan" at all!!

I went back to Phase 1 in the book to get back on track! Salads, eggs, yogurt, fruit, veggies and lean meats. NO carbs (except what little there is in the things I am allowed to eat). This last week I ate so many french fries....OOPS!!!

 

[LindaL]

I lost 1.5 lbs this week...no thanks to eating at the Chinese Buffet yesterday for Mother's Day!

Where is everyone...??

 

[Mona]

I stayed the same this week. (I had gained 1.5 pounds last week) I have decided to stop checking in unless others do, as I was starting to feel like I was all by myself on this thing.

Congrats on your loss Linda.

 

[chandab]

I haven't really kept weekly records, but over the course of the winter, I lost at least 10#, might be as much as 15# (because I don't keep accurate records, I can only be sure of 10#). Love that I lost the weight, hate the baggy clothing.

 

[LindaL]

Not sure if anyone else is interested in keeping this going...maybe it's run its course?? lol

I did lose half a pound this week. Whoopie!

 

[Mona]

I feel the same as you Linda...am thinking not enough interest anymore, so maybe time to let it go. since you started and asked it to be pinned, do you want me to unpin it now??

As a side note, I lost 2 lbs this week.
