    Chris I was at 147.2 this morning. If my center number was a 3 I would be dancing. :) It is still good for me.

    Good job Chris, you are doing it. My eating is good right now also and I've worked out everyday this week. That hasn't happened forever.

    I'm weighing in Sunday. I hope to see a loss. It's been difficult staying off the scale this week. Not sure how long that will last.

    TGIF :)

    I was down to 137.8 this morning but that still isn't my lowest weigh-in weight. I will face the music tomorrow!
    Chris

    I lied... I was up this morning and I couldn't get on the scale at the meeting. Good thing I'm Lifetime and only have to weigh in once a month. :|

    Kathy that is awesome! Your tennis game is going to improve! I have to tell you, I weigh in daily. I like instant approval as well as a kick in the pants. >:) You are doing great. And yes, TGIF!

    Chris you make me laugh!

    After all the junk I ate today I might be up tomorrow. I stayed within calories, but to much sugar by far!

    Up again today - same pounds that were down yesterday. Same roller coaster. Waiting for new territory.

    Up!! Egad! What is in the air? ...not wait...what went in our mouths? I know...there are fat gods that come in the night and stuff you with laughing fat that won't go away!

    Yesterday was my REST DAY...it would have been really nice...are you listening fat gods????...if the scale had stayed the same...just the stayed same...I wasn't even asking for a loss. But...NO!!! The fat gods are checking in on me and laughing their a$$es off at all the exercising I'm doing...and that's the fat that attacks me at night! They stuff it in around my belly. I know that's what's happening. This is the only logical explanation! :p

    Okay, we are leaving in a bit for walk around town with the pup. It is supposed to be beautiful today. Then the bike then some kettlebells then some shopping.

    It's going to be a great Saturday! I'll be back later, my friends.

    Up .2 this morning. I am good with that after the way I ate last night. I was a little over tonight. Rocky brought me pie and creme eggs! He is sabotaging my weight loss! :s
    :#
    Chris I am pretty sure the fat God will be visiting me tonight!

    Paula take the reins on that roller coaster! Derail the thing and take a Ferrari from here out. o:)

    Down 1.8 this morning - 200. That scale just would not give me another .1. :D But I'm good...Onederland next week!

    I had something very clever written this morning and did not hit POST REPLY!!! ugh! I'm not nearly as clever this afternoon!

    Kathy CONGRATULATIONS!! Nice job! Next week will be a great one(derland)!! bwahahah!

    I was up again this morning. The fat gods hit again last night. I'm hoping they missed Shelley. Maybe tomorrow. It's pretty pitiful if I end the month heavier than I started it. :p

    Tomorrow my friends!

    Chris darn them fat gods! They got me also. But still ok. Have a great Monday.

    Kathy that is wonderful! Rooting for you to hang in there!

    148.4 this morning. I will take it.

    I looked at the scale at the end of the day :noway: bad idea! Not going to make the number real by saying it. Hope to be better when I get back up. Maybe it's all this darn water!

    Gawd, Shelley, 148.4 would be like my ideal weight.

    Shelley, NICE!!!! I'm racing to meet you! Man, I hope I'm kidding!!

    Paula...end-of-the-day-scale-reading is sure to put you in a nasty funk. Don't do it!!!

    Today I walked w/DH and Bean early this morning for 5.0 miles in 115 mins (6.94 total miles for 15,125 steps) WOW!! Same as yesterday!! Then got on the recumbent for 12.80 miles in 45 mins and an episode of Castle then played w/some weights to a 30 minute KCM DVD then...uummmm....nothing!! ;) It was a beautiful, sunny day here in California! B)

    Stayed within my calorie allotment and tracked it all.

    Muahahaha, you know better than that. Trying to give yourself a heart attack? No peeking at night!

    I was 147.6 this morning. I would love to see that stay there. And you are taller Paula. I need to be more like 130ish. But I do not care if I only see 140 again. I refuse to give up everything. >:)

    Chris thanks! And great day!

    I'm holding at 163. Want to get below the 162 where this month started. Probably depends on which part of the bounce is happening.

    Anybody else's eyeballs floating? Drinking half my weight in water is hard! Even with pounds converted into ounces and divided by 10.

    Yep, not easy Paula. I do think that if a person drinks the required amount for a body it should be good. Some people are much larger than we are and that just does not seem healthy! I am supposed to drink around 74 ounces. Slightly less now. :D Maybe if you did not drink so much you could get below that 162! :wink: And I do not think it said "water".

    Chris I so get it. I do that all the time. Bwahahaha

    My weight was just into the 146'ish this morning. I am betting it will be up tomorrow a bit. Never holds when I first have a loss. At least at first, it bounces. :wink:

    Weighing in on Sunday. I haven't worked out this week so hoping for the best. I'll take .1 to get under 200.

    Crossing my fingers for you! B)

    Weighed in at 146.2 today. That was exciting. But it is so hard to keep it down. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it. I know, so negative! Sorry everyone. But just feeling this way.

    oh oh oh...! how exciting, Kathy!

    I hit 161 this morning, wow! Now if I can stay there thru Tuesday. :bigsmile: Unfortunately a coworker brought candy and nobody was helping me eat them :grumble: But then I went walking in the rain after work. 90 minutes and I'm going to be sooooo sorry tomorrow!

    Well I had a free day today. Not an all out pigfest, but relaxed a bit. I feel better! Back at it tomorrow.

    Wishing you all the best!

    Who knows, Chris. My drop to 161.5 bounced back up to 163.5 today. If it can go up 2 for me, it should be able to go down 2 for you!

    Best wishes on the bounce!

    Oh yes Kathy! Pom Poms up and booty shaking! :drinker: Big Big congratulations on onederland! Keep logging and staying away from them chips!

    Wishing you luck Chris. <3

    Paula I brought my own candy to the movies. And nobody helped me either! :cry:

    Last day weigh in was 147.2. Still down. Not as much as before my bad day, but good enough.
