I don't know what happened last week, I was under everyday and worked out and still I gained?!?!? I'm slightly frustrated, the only thing I can think of is that my body was still adjusting to everything I ate in the last week of December. Hopefully this week will be more successful.

I weighed in at 292 today. I have been struggling really bad for the last 3 weeks. I have been gaining and losing the same 5 pounds this whole time. I keep cheating! Not good. There is no way I can lose 28 pounds by easter if I don't get focused. I was replying to a post today and it really brought back why I need to lose 110 pounds before my twins start school. I will lose this weight and I will keep it off and then I will decide if I want/need to lose anymore. I will not be the mom that struggles to walk or climb stairs. We will not limit our activities (our lives) because of my obesity. I will kick the morbidly out of morbidly obese by easter.

You keep going!! You can do it!! That was such a heart-felt post! You have inspired me to keep at it, too!

Sweetheart, YOU CAN DO IT!!!! Not all at once, and you may not meet your goal to lose 28lbs by Easter... As long as YOU KNOW you are giving 100% to your goal, and you are gving this ALL YOU"VE GOT to be able to be a more active mom to school aged twins, then THAT in its self WILL BE self satisfying!!!

Take this ONE bite at a time, ONE meal at a time, whatever it takes for YOU to keep repeating GOOD Choices... not everyone loses the same, and not everyone has the same routine... you have to find what works FOR YOU.. and FOR YOU that may be a gold star sticker chart..... 5 Gold Stars a Week X's 4 Weeks = 20 Gold Stars a month = A New bottle of Nail Polish, OR a new set a hair scrunchies, something SMALL and attainable......

You CAN SUCCEED..................but you're gonna have to get creative!! We are here, pushing you along.... today, Walk in Place for 15minutes.......... if thats ALL you can do...........then DO IT!

Much love from ALL of us!!!!!

Sorry I'm late - life very busy at the moment with a change in career direction and a total refurbishment of our house. Internet connection is dependent on what is being done in our house at the time. I put on a lb this week - 165lbs. I must try harder.

Honestly I'm shocked to see some people have lost 8,7,5 lb! That's great! I'm happy my weight is going down period. It's normally very hard for me to lose weight because of PCOS.

poopoomonkey1978

kc--I'm really not well so if you would like I can give the challenge however I won't be participating in it until I feel better. I have been doing the p90 and I love the 7 push ups so that's the first challenge. Everyone is to do sets of 7 push ups. 7 regular width, 7 close and 7 spread wide. Do 1 set the first day and then try to build from there. As for the second challenge I would like everyone to try to and have a day where they don't eat any processed foods. (it's harder then you think)

8 - sick
7 - ?
6 - high protein/low carb

I'm happy mine is too. It tends to be slow also. This week was an anomaly for me since it was holiday gain coming off.

darina23

I'm doing high protein and low carb period as a lifestyle. I'm also burning between 350 and 800 calories a day just from exercise EVRY DAY!!! My weight loss is slooooooooow Like I said, I have PCOS, so I'm happy with losing any weight at all.

Congrats to all the biggest losers this week! Poopoomonkey1, feel better! Being sick is no fun at all. I'm in for the pushup challenge, but not sure I can do the close ones, will have to see, LOL.

1ArmyMom1- do you have a child in the Army? My second child is in the Army (currently in school- intelligence, stationed in California, but awaiting orders to Texas).

I just got done with my workout and it kicked my butt! It's a usual workout, so not sure why I'm so exhausted. I do have a headache, maybe just a little dehydrated. I got my 8 glasses of water in, but I suspect that our frigid temps (-28 and has been falling all day!) are making me use up more water than usual.

Today was the first day back at work with kiddos, last week was prof. development and workdays in the classrooms, so it'll take a few more days to get back in the swing of things! Already missing my son and it's only been 10 days since we left him. I already bought our tickets for the next visit (mid March). I think it'd be better if he could talk, so I could at least call him on the phone! I'm really hoping to have some good movement on the scale before we head back down there!

Hope ya'll had a great Monday, and a good rest of the week!

Wow I so just learned that I have to come in here daily and read post and comment I just read as many post as I could and forgive me if I missed anyone but I am going to put this in a round about way for all not pointing out any names.

Congrats to all of our biggest losers this week and all of those that had a loss period!!
To all those that maintained like me today is a start to a new week wishing you all the best this week!
To all those who may have gained that was last week news this week it's time to rewrite the story!!

So sorry to hear about your boxer no more suffering is hard to face but glad she is at peace!! Congrats to a great loss this week!!

Congrats to all the runners and those getting back in the groove with working out!!

I hope all those not feeling 100% due to sinuses and colds get the proper rest, meds, and recovery time to feel better!!

I hope those who are having issues with there meds get things taken care of!!

To my friends who are dealing with stress, anxiety, and depression I will be praying for you I was dealing with this and I truly prayed it off of me I hope I'm not offending anyone when I speak of prayer and healing but I truly did this for myself!! I was having really bad anxiety attacks and I did some research because I was having the chest tightening feeling and I was confusing it with a heart attack went to the ER and everything!! I read a article that said you bring anxiety on yourself and at that very moment I began praying and asking God to remove this illness from me and talking about how I am in control of myself and I have to admit I have been anxiety free I felt myself getting over whelmed in Wal-Mart a few days before Christmas I immediately took a few deep breaths and had a little self talk and was able to move on without having a full on attack!!

I can truly agree that stress and depression affects your weight loss success as well my whole 2010 was a very rough yr and I gained the same 5-7lbs the whole entire yr I tried to gain control in 2011 but the cycle continued I am finally trying to get things totally together but are they ever really......................So I am just preparing myself not to make any excuses and living each day to it's fullest!!

My goal this week is to come in and check in daily so I can see how things are going for everyone!
Have a great week Team Egg-Cellance!!

poopoomonkey1978

thanks for the well wishes everyone I am fighting either strep or mono and it's been awful. I have no energy and am only really having ginger ale. I really hope the mediacation kicks in soon, not being able to care for your family is the worst feeling in the world. Hope you all kick it with the challenges this week for big losses next week. (I'm really hoping once I am back to eating I don't gain all this weight back)
