    2 days till weigh in! Hope I've lost! Even with my massive roast yesterday I still made it under my cals - Phew! Let's just hope that's reflected on the scales on Wednesday...

    Was up early with the kids so hoping today isn't going to be a struggle with hunger today and constant snacking.... But then I'm out tonight at my Spanish lesson so I'll be able to snack from 8-9.30pm....

    Hope everyone's having/had a good Monday!

    cheese burgers?! what a meany!! I'm sure it'll be fine... I'm interested to see if I've lost... week 2 won't be as much as week 1 I would imagine...

    Trying to be really good tonight so going to get the kids off to bed and do a bit of exercise I think....

    Hope it all goes well for you tomorrow! Keep resisting those cheeseburgers! x

    Just did my weigh in. 104.6 kgs, 230.6lbs. I am thrilled with the loss but am now convinced that I was retaining a lot of fluid at last weigh in (TOM) which was 9 days ago. Have now changed my weigh ins to wednesdays. Would love to lose this amount each week but am realistic to know its not me, I like it to be manageable with my life style. As in eating enough not to be hungry and fitting my execise in to my lifestyle, not letting it take over my life. I am now trying not to emotional eat. I have family in North Queensland, Australia and they are preparing for the biggest cyclone ever to hit the area. It is to hit during a high tide, so My sister has had to already leave her beautiful home one street back from beach and has gone to my brother. He lives on a side of a mountain, high up, but in a tall pole house, cyclone proof built, but I guess this will be the test we didn't want. Hope everyone is happy with their weigh in and have a wonderful wednesday. Cheers Jenni.

    I just found this thread two days ago, so I may not lose anything by tomorrow. Nonetheless, it's nice to have a group of "losers" in the same boat. I look forward to seeing less of you all!!!!
    Jenny, keep us updated about your family! Prayers and good thoughts go out to your family and others facing the storm.

    Hi all

    Wednesday here, weighed in at 93kg or 205 lbs, a massive 3.5kg or 8lb loss. I knew this week would be a big one as it's my first week on MFP, I often start diets but lose my mojo part way through, and I often lose a lot in the first week, but I honestly think this is a record! I'm so chuffed. My triathlon I did gave me an extra 750 kcals, and I was a little worried about scoffing all those (though I coped!)

    I'm really looking forward to the challenges of next week! I have another little triathlon on Saturday, which means I can eat out again!!! LOL!

    Good luck to everyone else

    I was really nervous about the weigh in because I wasn't losing much weight BUT this morning I had a break through and lost 2 lbs! Probably largely water weight but it still counts. :-) Congratulations, Rachy, on such an amazing drop!

    I'm a little nervous about tomorrow's weigh in. I had trouble getting motivated to exercise this week. I did come in under my calorie goal each day, but it was close a few times.
