Elisabeth in IL Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I think that I've lost 1-2 pounds. It is really hard to tell without that digital scale. This is helping me to keep my goal before me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamela H in Texas Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I've not done very well exercising due to severe depression, but I'm hoping I'm on an upswing and will do better. This morning, I did walk with the kids and dogs :) My starting weight (this time) was 230. I'm down to 219 as of this morning. Goal is 150 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momofkhm Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 It was the last week of my cycle. That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it. Eating was bad. I need a jump start! No weight loss.:( I did exercise well. This week I will: exercise 4 or 5 days, drink 1liter of water a day (not enough but more than now), and track my food. 160/160/135 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andie Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 This morning, I did walk with the kids and dogs Good for you! I know how hard it is to do that first thing, but you're doing it. Yay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andie Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 got off track somewhere in the middle. I skirted with cheating: lots of "little tastes" of this and that of the kids' food. Ptttht. The Superbowl was hard; it's *so* food oriented around here. I wasn't hungry, but felt deprived anyway. *sigh* But I'm still down another .5 lb and I'm recharged for this week. Yay!

Jennifer in MI Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I've not done very well exercising due to severe depression, but I'm hoping I'm on an upswing and will do better. This morning, I did walk with the kids and dogs :) My starting weight (this time) was 230. I'm down to 219 as of this morning. Goal is 150 :) ((hugs)) I'm so sorry about the depression. Sounds like you're doing very well with the weight loss though! But, I'm not sure about this week. I'm followin all my points, but I've been feeling like I may gain. But, that's okay because I lost 3 last week and that's quite a bit. Started at 241.8 and now 149.4 with 8.4 pounds to go!!!!!:D AWESOME!!!!! How long did you take to lose that weight? I worked out six times. Kept my calories around 1200/day. I'm down 9 pounds (I don't know how much was this week and how much was last week). 180/171/150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaTanya Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 from 175 to 173. Goals: hit the gym 5 x, 8 glasses of water daily, and track my food intake. My back is still aching and I tried to use that as an excuse not to walk this morning. But . . . I stretched before getting on the treadmill, and it wasn't that bad. Maybe helped me walk out some of the stiffness. This check-in is a good idea. Hope I'll take my fitness plan more seriously! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diana in OR Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 But I'm okay with that. I had a few extra goodies during the Superbowl, and with my lovely, not-so-regular cycles, I've pmsing now for 3 weeks. All things considered, I'm glad not to have gained, lol.

JennifersLost Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 128, but I swear that this is the week I see 127, if not 126! I keep gaining and losing the same darn pound. I'm trying not eating past 7 pm this week. Maybe that will help. Come on, springtime! Give me a road I can run on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lux Et Veritas Academy Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Down 10 since Thanksgiving- I am new to this little group- yeah- I have had an awful week eating so that could change fast:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathy in IL Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Down 2 pound this week. I was a little surprised because I really haven't done more than cut out snacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori C- Texas Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I started Weight Watchers on my own the first of October. I lost 10 lbs from then until Christmas. Luckily, I didn't gain it back at Christmas. A friend of mine and I joined Weight Watchers and started going to the meetings the first of January. I am down 8.8 since Jan. 1st. I have a long way to go but so far so good. I love Weight Watchers! I never thought I would enjoy the meetings but I really have. Checking in here will give me another little push to stay on track!:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich with Kids Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 OK. Here it is. I've mentioned before that I had gastric bypass surgery 3.5 yrs. ago. I lost 126 lbs. Well, dh and I (he had it, too. He lost 140 lbs.) went back to basics this week. 10 lbs. have slowly crept up behind me, or crept up on my behind... So, as of this morning, I'm down 2 lbs. I've been on liquids only since yesterday a.m. (Protein shakes, sf jello/pudding, lo-carb soups) I get to actually chew tomorrow! I start on soft protein like fish and eggs, then add in more substantial protein like chicken and steak towards the end of the week. The idea is to eat like we did right after surgery. The carbs just kinda crept back in. So, no more fried food and limited carbs. Lots of agua, but not with food! I also started exercising again. Good luck, ladies. I look forward to seeing your progress! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bassoon Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 And heading to Weight Watchers in the morning - I'd like to be down 25 lbs. by summer. If I'm facing a move, I sooooo do not want to deal with it by stress eating - not mention meeting new people feeling so icky about myself. How often do y'all check in? Every week?

CalicoKat Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 is a 6.5lb loss. The scale is still creeping downward daily so I still don't know how much to attribute to my surgery. BUT I do know that if I indulge my cravings for steak, mint choc. chip ice cream and dorritos I won't be able to keep it off. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
