Dude, you're trying to kill me. I'm a scale ADDICT! *sigh* I will do my best. *pout*
Tresa - hope you are feeling better!
Lynnie - I don't have a gym membership b/c 1) $ & 2) I wouldn't go by myself either. *hugs* I think once you make the first step, suck it up & go, it'll get much easier after that. Once it feels like a "routine" it'll come more natural, kwim? You CAN do it!
Here's hoping for a fantastic weigh-in, Black Team!0 -

Good Luck with the Weigh-Ins....lets kick butt:drinker:0 -

Oh dear god.....If it were up to me I would glue the damn thing to my feet and hop around all day. This IS going to be a challenge.

I have a fabulous visual right now...

Noooooooooo don't make me gooooooooo! I'll do situps. Heck I'll do push ups. I walk around in a TUBE TOP ferchitssakes (see the "most embarassing" thread for explanation) but not the hide the scale!
Okay, I am an open book. So I'll tell you why I am afraid to put away the scale. When I put away the scale, each and every time,that is when I usually give up-start avoiding the scale-and start packing the elbees on....

the girl who is still afraid to take that first step and go to the YMCA0 -
Lynnie - just do what I'm doing & put a post it note on it. That way, you can still SEE the scale, but you won't be tempted to get ON the scale...until next Wed. You can do it!
Does it worry anyone else that I got back on it already this morning? :huh: I wanted to make sure it was right! I wanted to make sure I PM'd Sam the right weight! I needed to KNOW!
Post-It note, here I come!0 -

Oooo! This'll be a hard one. I used to weigh in every day or 2. Since we started the BL challenge, I've cut back but I still usually get one or 2 peeks in before weigh-in. This might help me though. I weighed myself the other day and had a nice loss. Today I weighed myself for the "official" weigh-in and I've gained back a pound. :grumble: If I hadn't weighed the other day then I wouldn't be depressed already at 8:30 in the morning. I'd just be happy that I had a (small) loss.0

Oh great now I have NO excuses. I am going right now to put tape on my scale. If i have to physcially remove something that says " You PROMISED Amelia you would NOT weigh yourself!" I will not do it.
Now, let us bow our heads in prayer.0 -
Are we piling challenges on each other? Like each challenge is meant to be carried on PAST the week it was initiated?
Because I SO kept going with the crunches challenge. I'm up to 80 crunches a day.
Anyway, good challenge. Guess I'll have to put my scale out of sight to make it easier...0 -
The Black Team Oath: Week 4
We, as the black team, shall back off & away from the scale. We shall stay away from produce aisles, shipping docks & the tiny scale at the post office. *gulp* Our scales shall be out of commission until Wednesday January 28, 2009 by order of punka274/Amelia.
Starting.....NOW.
and here i thought I was the only scale addict out there. LOL0 -

I'm keeping up with the abs stuff & the veggie stuff, too. I think the more we can carry forward, the better! By the end of it, we'll be fine tuned fitness machines!0 -
so we have
1. Eat 3 veggies and or fruits a day, or increase what you already eat
2. Do crunches each night
3. Weigh and measure all foods and log
4. (:grumble: ) Do not weigh ourselves until next Wed.
Is this correct?0 -
That is my understanding...I'm still sucking at measuring everything....0

Ok Amelia, I apologize. I am not a happy camper with this one. I went to a psych one time and was told that when we are really resistive to certain changes it means we REALLY need to make those changes.
(mine was *****ing at my DH!!)
So I accept your challenge and I promise you here and now I will NOT weigh until next Wed. And if I do I have to add 1 pound to my ticker!!
Thank you for this awesome challenge!!:happy: (:grumble: )0 -
How do you reply so it shows another person's comment in blue before your response?0

I now know that you are not my friend anymore Amelia. It is good that I figured this out this earlier in the game! :laugh: :happy: JK!
I have to weigh tomorrow night at the weight loss support group I started at the church, I really do have to, because the ladies there all whine about getting on the scale, who doesn't want to get on the scale if you worked your butt off during the week. You can definitely tell who is working in that group, all different ages and lifestyles and some can't wait to see their progress and others act that the scale is a loaded gun that is suddenly going to go off! :grumble:
I weigh every morning and night so this will kill me, but I will try really hard! Cross my heart!
Oh did I tell you my fngers are crossed behind my back! JK!0 -

Never mind. I just figured it out!! Duh!0 -
Woo Black team! I, too, am a scale addict, so this really is going to be hard!!!!!
I've got all kinds of visuals now too, thanks Andrew!!!!!
:flowerforyou:
Ok, Amelia!
I pledge not to step on the scale until next Wednesday!
There! I did it!!! :bigsmile:0 -
Good morning all!! Good thing I weighed yesterday 80000 times cause I to am addicted to the scale. I will have to have hubs remove it from the bathroom so I don't accidentally step on it! :laugh:
So I was worried about nothing the other day. I got on yesterday morning and was up 2 pounds but worked my butt off last night. then before I went to bed I weighed again and it said 187.6 at 11pm so I figured either the same or a loss and I was surprised with a whole pound!! 183.6! YAY ME!!!:bigsmile: :blushing: I am not having to exersice for more calories now so I think that makes me happy too. I get to exersice because I want too. :bigsmile:
Anyways off to enter weights will be back shortly!!0 -
crazy life-- but I'm here-- ready for the challenge this week--
Later--0
