    I can thank TOM for my 1lb gain this week. :explode: Ugh, and I'm leaving for vaca tmorrow - I was ONE pound away from being "healthy" but not now, and probalby not next week bc who knows what I'll gain on vaca. Lets erase this week - I'm over it. :grumble:

    :flowerforyou: sorry guys, i put my grumpy pants on this morning after i stepped off the scale. good luck to all you ladies!! have a wonderful weekend/week if I dont get back on before then! :smile:

    Same thing happened to me. I weigh daily and my weight went up four pounds and finally now back at my starting weight from last week. Very frustrating!
    We'll do better this week. Have a great, relaxing vacation!

    I'm here! :happy: Nothing great to report, but I'm still sticking with this thing. I did start a weight rotation, that has me doing 3 days of weights 3 days of cardio. After a week (and weight gain), I'm going to add 30 min. of cardio on my weight days. This will be running, for no longer than 30 min. because I don't want to do to much. This gain doesn't seem to have affected my body, because my measurements are the same.

    Weigh in 162.5 :tongue:

    Hi Ladies! I am here. Sorry I didn't weigh in this Weds. Mom was in town from Texas and she is a fulltime job when she is here. I have been so stressed out the past three days that I have been eating like crazy! Most of it has been healthy foods though--I am trying to be good. I will just skip this week and weigh in next weds. Hope everyone is doing well!

    Very much! :drinker: Apparently 5lbs too much, LOL. But good news is that I'm down 3lbs already & hopefully more next week! The food is just SO good. We're going back in April or May - I am hoping to meet my final goal (28 more lbs) by the time we leave - thats like 32-34 weeks so I should hit it no problem *fingers crossed*

    Jstar513 - I was on a mini vacation and I gained about 2 pounds back - :explode: But Like you said - I had a great time and now I am back FULL FORCE!!! And you will be able to meet that goal by april no problem at all!! Have a great week!!!

    gogoleaner - I didn't weigh in this week because I totally spaced it out!! Then I got busy and didn't weigh for a couple days and was right around 227. Ick. But now I have gained a couple pounds back from a little mini vacation - so I am not too excited about Wednesday, but oh well, huh? Today is a new day!! I bet it was great to see your mom! I hope you had a fun time with her!! Have a great one!!

    Kath711 - GOOD JOB!!! Every ounce counts!!!!woohoo!!

    Morning Lovely Ladies,

    I'm back down to 160.5! :drinker: I just want to get past that 160 point! :wink: Incorporating more cardio into my weight work seemed to do the trick, so I'm hoping that the weight loss will continue. :smile:

    Jstar: Glad you enjoyed your vacation, and your goal still seems doable.

    jtodacheeny: I think vacations are for enjoying. 2 lbs isn't horrible, and I'm sure that you will get that weight off soon. :wink:

    gogoleaner: Congrats on the weight loss, just to bad that it had to be stress related. :smile:

    genigen: Ok here is your cyber workout partner! :happy: Today I did 55 minutes of weight work, and I plan on a 25 min run and ab work when I get home. What are your plans for today? :wink: Just 10 min will do wonders. :smile:

    woohoo gogoleaner!!!!Glad you finally broke that plateau - they can be maddening, I know!

    Great work lvnascar!! next weigh in Wednesday you will be in those 150's, I know it!!!!!

    As for me, I about fell off the scale this morning!!!

    9/23/09 - no official weigh in, but a couple days later was at 227.
    9/30/09 - 227.2.

    So, instead of gaining 2 lbs it was 2/10 of a pound! Hmm, I don't really believe it and I halfway expect tomorrow to be up 2 lbs like I feel it was going to be - but that's what the scale said, so....woohoo!!

    Oh Please don't quit!!!! If you need to, take a break for a few days where you don't think about weight and diet and exercise AT ALL and get back with the program on Monday,then go for it, but don't quit, you'll regret it!!!

    YOU are worth the effort!!
    YOU deserve the end result!!

    AND

    YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE FOR HAVING A ROUGH PATCH!!! We all go through them and when they are over, we can get back to business and realize that we were strong enough to kick butt!!!!

    Good for you gogoleaner! 13.4 aint bad. I usually run between 11-12 and I know I used to be slower.

    Weigh in, down 1 pound, yeah!!

    Don't give up. I try to give myself little goals each week or month to keep it fresh. I like to run so I will say this week I will try to do another 1/2 mle or I will try to do 3 miles a little faster. I have to listen to music to keep up my motivation. It also helps to know that I get to eat more when I exercise. :tongue:

    ok, so here I am - I TOTALLY fell off the wagon these past couple of weeks. No body's fault but my own. :mad: I haven't gained back anything really, but knowing that I could be a couple of pounds lighter - :mad: Anyway, I am feeling pretty annoyed wih myself. I haven't been able to find the umph to get up out of bed in the morning and go to the gym. My food choices have totally stunk lately and I am going through a period of "don't know, don't care". How is that for pitiful??? And I can blame nobody but myself. Even my housework has fallen behind. What's up with that???? grr.
