    Hi all, I know I am late on weighing in, but this morning I was 286.5, down from 288 on Thursday. So that's a big woo hoo for me! I'm glad I decided to jump into the community and join all you lovely people.

    Kudos to those who lost weight this week. And to those who didn't or gained, don't give up. Next week is full of opportunity to kick it up a notch and lose a pound or two. So keep going.

    As for a group name I think that would be cool. People could throw some names out and we could vote and have majority rule. I'll try to think of some name ideas.

    no dont count it...they say u should only weigh yourself in the morning when u first wake up and usually the same time everytime u go to weigh yourself..if u think bout it if u weigh yourself in the a.m. and lets say u weighed in 255..then when u went to bed u weighed again and it said 257 then everything u ate really hasnt digested and gone thru ur system if that makes sense..plus u def. get dis couraged and u dont want to do that bc none of us will let u :happy: we have to all stick together in this! thats what motivaitonal friends are for!!:flowerforyou:

    Hey I would LOVE to join this group. (I am currently in a couple others) but I like to talk to people going through the same things as me and sometimes I feel lost.

    My stats are in my signature, and I weigh in on fridays also. This week was +5lbs :angry: my daughter's bday was this week and we went to applebee's once and an amusement park another day. SOO new week! :laugh:

    I have no idea about names, I'm not good at clever names either.

    So I just had an idea for a name....

    'Less than Him' :laugh: it seems to be a recurring theme with everyone's posts this week that they want to weigh less than their significant others, and I'm the same. I weigh about 75 lbs more than my hubby and he's 9 inches taller than me! So that's my suggestion for now! :bigsmile:

    My husband and I have been married for 10 years..In those 10 years I believe there has only been one time that he weighed more than I did. I am about 30+ pounds more than he is! He is also taller than me. But he is also in the military and required to stay in better shape!

    Hi,

    Can I join? I've been north of 200 for about 16 years. Started with MFP at 216 and now about 208ish.

    I like "Less than Him" but also would like to suggest "Getting to One-derful life"

    I don't really have an end goal weight. I have no idea what a good weight for me is (I'm 5 4 when I stand straight). I was a size 12 when I was in my 20s and was 160ish pounds. But my 20s was 20 years ago.

    So as a first goal, perhap trying to get to 180 would be a safe "less than him" weight.

    One of the few things about being north of 200 that is cool, is that when you do any sort of exercise, it really racks up the additional calories that you can eat.

    The other one for me is that occasionally in contenious situation, I know that few have the where with all to actually move me if I've decided to stand my ground. (Once during recovery from day surgury to fix something that causes me so much pain that I had not slept in months for than I hour at a time, I was finally sleeping without so much pain. The nurse kept trying to move me out of the recovery room. I turn to them and said I weight 220, I want to sleep for a few hours, do you really think you can move me with out my help?)

    the one-derful is cute lol and they have a chart on here that will show you what your proper weigh range should be for height and age. I hope your not in pain anymore?
