Monday Morning weigh-ins anyone???

JessiJean

Hi all! Does anyone weigh in or want to weigh in on Mondays??? I need some motivation and support! I feel that if I weigh in on Mondays, it may prevent some weekend binge eating. Who's with me?? Post stats and let's support each other!

This Monday was a total bust! I was up 4lbs from last Monday. I have lost it as of yesterday, so...

Starting weight: 136
Goal Weight: 120

JessiJean

good plan. i weigh myself everyday and i need to stop!

:blushing: I do too! This is my motivation to STOP!!!! I get so defeated when I see +lbs. You all may help me not binge! YAY

LJC: I will see you on Sunday! Are you traveling for work, family or pleasure? If it's a vacay, take me with you!!!

Moving a daughter into an apartment at school. Won't be that much fun, but it is nice to get away.

MissNova

My weigh in is Monday as well!!! We can do this girl!!!!

PixieGoddess

I weigh-in on Mondays and Fridays, so I can see the effects of weekdays vs weekends. Officially. In reality, I've been weighing myself most days lately, but I'm not allowed to post except Mondays and Fridays! :blushing:

I will do it. I am 158 at the moment. Sounds good although I may need a reminder (very forgetful)!!!

JessiJean

I get forgetful too, so we can all remind each other!

Thanks everyone for being on board! :flowerforyou:

LJC: Have fun moving her! It's exercise LOL When did you start the C25K? I have been running for a while now and I absolutely LOVE it!!!

Hope that you are all having a wonderful day! I am mentally preparing to do the stairs for 15 minutes on my break at work!!! Ugg

I weigh in on Monday's.. only 4 more days!

Sherry1979

I'm with you. . .Monday's are already my weigh-in day and I just got "re-started" on this journey this week & my Monday weigh-in was 170.4. . .can't wait to see what the coming Monday holds on the scale :bigsmile:

bkrbabe57

I'm in!!! I weighed in last monday at 230 and can't wait to see what this week's effort brings.
I have been watching my calorie intake closely.

ljc1057

I'm a day early, but I'll be out of town tomorrow. I started at 207 and I'm at 202.6, so a 4.4 lb loss! YES!

JessiJean

LJC: That's awesome!! 4.4 lbs!!!

I weighed in this morning down 1lb, but I will officially weigh in tomorrow.

JessiJean

Yesterday was my stretch and strengthen day AKA rest day. I ate OK and still had 1 calorie left over! Somehow, the lb I lost was put back on today :ohwell:

Starting Weight: 154
Current Weight: 136
Goal Weight: 120

I am anxious to see how everyone else did this week!!!! My legs are killing me from my 4 mile run on Saturday, but this is officially week 1 of my 14 week 1/2 marathon training. 3 miles tonight!!! :noway: I imagine I will loose some weight over the next 14 weeks, even if it's just 5lbs.

HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE!!!!! :flowerforyou:

justahorsen

I am up 0.8 lbs from last Monday but I had a HORRIBLE bingey weekend.....I'm surprised I'm not up 8.0 lbs instead!! Now to buckle down and remember to at least maintain over next weekend...

revlaura

Awesome!!! Good for you! Safe journey!! I'll weigh in too on Mondays. Weekends are my hardest time keeping on track. So Monday it is. Is it best to go weigh just once a week? I'm another "every day (almost) on the scale person". Surprising this morning, Lost . 4lbs.

Sherry1979

My weigh in this morning was 167.4 which means I have lost 3 lbs since last Monday. I'm very happy with that but I do know that this being my first week back on the wagon after a couple months UNDER the wagon that I always lose more the first couple weeks.

Good job to all of you who've posted so far. . .sounds like everyone is on the right path!!!! :flowerforyou:

I am a Monday morning weigh in person.

I want to meet my goal before my 21st birthday in 4 months time.

Which is 17 weeks on monday. I want to lose 1-2lbs a week. So I think I could make it.

Largest amount I could lose is 34 punds which would make me 129lbs
Smallest amount I could lose is 17 pounds which would meake me 146lbs. Which is still ok.

I really need a good kick up the back side this is making me miserable.

Veepie

Is 25 pounds in 17 weeks doable? x

JessiJean

I am up 0.8 lbs from last Monday but I had a HORRIBLE bingey weekend.....I'm surprised I'm not up 8.0 lbs instead!! Now to buckle down and remember to at least maintain over next weekend...

I had a binge day yesterday too. Just get back up and try again today! We can do this!!!

JessiJean

Revlaura: I am a every morning weigher, but this could be bad for the self-esteem and other things. I am trying to not do this (by weighing in on Monday's) Welcome to the group!!!

Sherry: You rock!!!! Keep going, you will reach your goal.

Veepie: Welcome!!! It could be do-able depending on how much weight you have to loose. I started at 154 and have lost about 18lbs in 1 year, but that's me. I don't push the number on the scale as much as I push the way I feel and how healthy I have become. I am much healthier at 136 than I was at 97lbs; let me tell ya!!!! Do it healthy and you'll feel great!!!

HI everyone, my name is Sara and i'm new to MFP. I have a 5.5 month old daughter and I've lost most of the baby weight except about 5 lbs. However, I have about 15 extra poiunds to lose on top of that. I'm very frustrated as I've been working out for months now and have lost zero weight I'm hoping that counting calories will help. I seem to lose weight all week long, only to gain it back by Monday. I have a horrible habit of weighing my self every day. I just can't help myself. I've been trying to get back into running and it's going ok so far. I got up at 5 this morning and ran about 3.5 miles, but I'm a pretty slow runner right now, about 12 minute miles.

I'm hoping that this board gives me the motivation that I need.

Welcome Sasmll!!! Your story sounds exactly like mine!!! Great job getting up and running! Can I ask how tall you are? I am between 5'1 and 5'2 and 136 with about 15lbs to loose too. It is slow going for me even with training for a half marathon (week 1 LOL). Good luck!!!

sasmll6577

I'm between 5'1" & 5'2" also I don't know why I'm not losing any weight. Everyone told me it would just "fall" offf while I was breatfeeding. Yeah right!!! Then I had some people saying my body was holding on because I was breast feeding. I'm now only feeding her about once a day and other than that she's on formula. I just couldn't keep up with it at work, much to my disappointment.

Post baby I was up to about 4 miles 3 or 4 times a week. I can maintain my weight really well, but losing it is tough for me. Congrats on all of your weight loss, that's fantastic!!

I'm looking forward to having this support.

By the way, my profile says I'm 35, but I'm only 30. I can't figure out how to change it, LOL.

I weighed in at 155.8 this morning, back up 1lb, but yesterday I was at a 1-year-old's birthday party on the first day of my TOM, so yeah...I'm not worrying about going up, just grateful it wasn't by more! :laugh:

The Tigger cake was delicious

bkrbabe57

Weighed in at 228 this morning so that is a 2 lb loss since last week. I was a bit worried as I was away from my computer all week end and I know my calories could have been a bit high. I tried to make good food choices and keep active although I didn't exercises per say. Looks like I did ok this week and hopefully I can kick it up a notch.

I'm new~just joined yesterday. A few of the ladies here at work weigh in every Monday, so I started joining them today. Starting weight (drum roll please) 191. I'm 5'10", but that's still insane. Just to tell you all a little about myself; I'm 27, working mother of two daughters, married to my best friend. I'm looking forward to the support and motivation this group has to offer! And I hope I can eventually do the same for someone else!

Starting weight: 191
Goal weight: 170

Wish me luck!

Nicole: Welcome!!! I love the support I get from this site!

Bkrbabe: Congrats on the loss!!!

PixieGoddess: Are you sending me some Tiger cake? Sounds yummy!!!

Sara: I think IMHO that when I am as small as I am and running, my body is toning rather than losing. I know that the smaller a person is the longer it takes to loose. You may try changing things up, say eat something different, do a different work out, ect.

All around I think we ALL did GREAT!!!!

Tonight is a 3 mile run and I am excited!!!!!

PixieGoddess

PixieGoddess: Are you sending me some Tiger cake? Sounds yummy!!!

No, I assume the rest of the cake went home with the 1-year-old and her parents!
