So it seems that we have many Wednesday weighers. Should we reconsider weigh in day. I have been weighing in Mondays, but I would be happy with Wednesdays as well. I do tend to weigh lighter on Wednesdays, but I just figure if you stick to one day, it doesn't matter which it is, it is all relative.

How about a vote....

I'm neutral.

:ohwell: I need the Monday weigh in to keep me on track on the weekend so I vote for Modays for me please? I think Kandy is right ... people have gotten use to weighing in on different days but we're all June starters right? As long as you pick the same day each week it's all good. :flowerforyou:

I agree, I post on Monday's (and most other days I weigh in anyway :blushing: )

Since we don't have to weight in on monday. I'm going to change mine to wednesday also. I usually eat out during the weekend and don't eat so healthy.. lots of sodium. Also I have a chance to work off the extra weekend calorie. Wednesday weight in would motivate me to be good on monday & tuesday.

BOUT THE MONDAY WEIGH IN
Nothing to stop any of us from weighing in on both days That way the Monday weigh in helps keep us honest on the weekends and Wednesdays acts as a validation for us to see how we are doing

I vote for both!
My favorite is Friday!LOL

kandyjo

Everyone looks like you are doing fantastic!!! Congrats on all of the losses....

About the weigh-in, we are going to keep starting the threads on Monday like we have been doing! :drinker:

My roommate seemed to have put my scale somewhere before she bathed her dog (she got sprayed by a skunk yesterday). I will weigh in when I find my scale. By the way, I was very upset that I couldn't find my scale this morning. I'm a daily weigh in girl. It helps me stay on track. *crosses fingers* Hope I find it by tomorrow!:ohwell:

I'm going to go ahead and weigh in too. I wasn't going to this week, as I have some issues wih a tooth that was pulled. I haven't been able to eat my normal foods. Only soft stuff, which means going over in calories.
I weigh 198 1/2. I think last week I weighed 197 1/2, so I did gain a pound. Ouch! That hurt, but it needed to be done. :laugh: Now I can try and get back on track again. I'll have to get some soups, and drinkable meals to survive till my empty tooth space stops hurting, and all my other teeth stop having sympathy pains for the lost tooth. lol:flowerforyou:

Sandi- I bow before the power of your big beautiful brain!

I love that idea. I like the Monday because Sunday is my off day- so I like to see how it affects me. Plus adding a Wednesday would give me more info- and I'm a dork so the more data the better. :laugh:

You guys are all doing great- Seriously great. I thought we might lose a few members here and there after a few weeks- but look how great you're all doing!

Y'all are the best bunch of losers I've ever seen. :bigsmile:

Two weeks now at a plateau, nothing much happening at all. I've been exercising a lot and mostly staying within my calories. I'm not complaining about the plateau thing, it's just sort of boring after seeing almost daily results.

A little event coming next weekend: Housewarming party with lots of people I haven't seen for awhile, who will all notice my change in size! Good excuse to go buy a cute new outfit and bask in the compliments. Since my weight doesn't seem to want to change this week, I'm going to focus on the toning. I recently discovered ab workouts on YouTube, short and to the point!

I'm a wednesday weigher but I thought I'd stop in and say congrats to the losers! :laugh: And to everyone else, hang in there, it's about the big picture. :flowerforyou:

kaja

well done to everyone.

I'm gonna weigh in tomorrow, expecting to have gained spent most of the weekend celebrating - birthday and end of school (i'm a teacher so its holiday time now. yay) and bad timing TOM.

WEEEEEEEEEEE!:happy:

My friends and family have started to remark that I look like I'm loosing weight. I hadn't told anyone I was going to try. All my cloths are getting too big *laughs* I had on a skirt yesterday and I was pulling it up all day. Nice problem to have isn't it?

SW in September--170
SW in June--157
Last week--154.5
CW--155

But I was on vacation last week, and the week before that my aerobics instructor was on break, so it was a good excuse not to workout as much. After all I ate and without much exercise, I guess I should be happy. Kind of on a plateau, though. ugh But several people have commented that I look like I've lost weight, so that's good.

SW 150- today
Short-term goal lose 5 by August 25
Long-term goal 135 by October
130 is just a dream

I'm hoping I can stick to this. I'm upset because my pants can't fit... well, I've been facing that for a few months now. It's hard doing this all by yourself.

The best of luck to everyone! I'd love to hear about anything that worked for others out there.

AlmostHot

Had a terrible weekend, sabotaged myself, and weighed higher this morning, but my jeans are now baggy so i think i will weigh again tomorrow when the weekend food is out of my system lol

I have decided to go with the 0.5 pound gain:grumble: because of technical difficulties I didnt get to weigh again . So hope I have a good loss next week

LW 207.2pounds
TW 207.7pounds

JohnnysGirl34...you need to keep taking good care of yourself. Hope you're feeling better soon. :flowerforyou:

I'm at 201 today. No change. I need to get back to logging my food. It's sort of funny, because I can spend time reading MFP threads, but I "forget" to enter my food! Better recommit to that food diary.
It's great to read about the success so many in the group are having!

Ok, so I have this supposedly good scale with a body fat thing and all. I only use the body fat thing once a week at most and it keeps saying 30%. But I thought, that can't be right. So I go to the gym and they do it there with one of the hand-held ones which he tells me is more accurate. My body fat is actually 24% :noway: I couldn't believe it! He tells me the reason my home scale is so off is because you stand on it and the "signal" can't get all the way up the body so it mostly analyzes the lower half of the body which is where I carry a lot of my weight. So from now on I'll just use the one at the gym every 3 weeks or so :drinker:

Welcome to the June Starters, hamak13...the best thing about MFP is that you won't be doing this all by yourself! Everybody's in the same boat with you and we're all working together towards success for one and all.

So I'm weighing in at 212 today, I should be happy but I was hoping for a big loss this week because of all I gained on vacation. But it's my TOM so I guess I"ll have to be happy with any loss at all, now to hid the scale until next week so I don't spend the week crying every time I step on it.....

So Last week 215, this week 212, -3lbs

shannahrenee

Okay I found my scale and it was not a happy time.

Last Monday I was 198.6 (yay out of 200s) and I managed to stay that weight all through Thursday (while on vacation, yay me!). Then I had the rest of the weekend off and today I'm back at 200 :sad:

Booo!!! I was hoping to at least be out of the 200s again by today but no such luck. Oh well, hopefully by next Monday.

I can't wait until I'm about 195 and even when I fluctuate I don't make it back into the 200s. It's so discouraging. :ohwell:

Good work everyone!!! Keep it up!

I'm going to post my goals in hopes that it motivates/reminds me of where I want to be.

189 or less by my birthday (September 24)
181 by my boyfriend's birthday (October 25)
179 by Halloween
Maybe 169 by Christmas but I'm going to wait and see what I look like at 179

busymom74

Well I can't even remeber what last weeks weigh in was but this week is 178.1 which is .4 less than the last time i weighed myself. lol

SW: 172

GW: 135

So I really didn't make any progress this week. I've been weighing myself every day (obsessively) and actually had one morning of 165, but others where the figure was all the way up to 169. I'm cutting out the daily weighings and moving the scale out of the bathroom. :grumble:

I've begun eating my exercise calories and will be monitoring my fat intake more closely as I'm nearly always over, to see if that helps any.

It's great to hear such wonderful progress from all of you!! Inspires me to keep going :flowerforyou:

Oh and today is my two month anniversary of being smoke free! Yay!

courtney_love2001

Hey girls and gals...not too happy about the loss this week, but at least I lost something. Guess I should be excited because i just got home from vacation on Friday. Oh well, a loss is a loss and I'm ok with that!

Hey guys!

My name is Kisha and I’m new to the June Starters. I was looking for a group of people for support on this site, when Kandy suggested I join your group! So here I am! I hope that’s okay even though I technically joined MFP in May. :frown:

Let’s see…. I love just about anything that a sort of odd 26 year old lady enjoys including (but not limited to): reading, sewing, writing, horror movies, tattoos, dancing til dawn, thrills, conventions, concerts, cupcakes (the concept of them more than the actual eating of them…) traveling, and spending time with family and friends.

I’m a copywriter for a large internet marketing company, and I live alone in Midtown Atlanta with my cat Neville Longbottom in my loft apartment (a.k.a = the batcave). I really enjoy my crazy little life and all of the people in it, but I want to be able to enjoy it to the fullest, which is why I’m here on MFP!

Here are my stats:
Height: 5’3
Starting Weight: 225
Current Weight: 203
Goal Weight: 140

I’m really excited about this group and that an invitation was extended my way (thanks again Kandy Jo! You’re awesome!) when I was feeling so discouraged and alone. I look forward to getting to know you all!

Thanks for reading!
Kisha
