Weigh In Friday

Down 2lb since last Friday's weigh in (and obviously maintained the 1lb lost between Fri and my extra weigh in on Sat)
So 134lb now
(That's 9st 8lb on my side of the pond)
Probably just aiming to maintain that this week.0 -
Lost 1.5 since last Friday. I am not doing much for excercise, unlike last winter, so this is new to me. I feel, however, like my hair is falling out at an alarming rate. Does anyone else have that problem? I am definitely eating over 1400 cals per day, and it is fairly healthy food. Maybe more exercise will rev up the endorphins or whatever is causing the Hair-a sporra.0

Down 1.5 lbs is awesome for one week! Congrats. Now, if you are losing hair, you are probably lacking a nutrient. You should go to WebMD (google it) and see if you can find out anything about this condition.
I am down one lb since last week. I am fine with that, as long as I don't gain any weight over the Thanksgiving holiday.0 -
My sister went through a serious illness and had hairloss caused by malnutrition. Be deligant about checking your daily nutritional values.0

My weight has still been bouncing up and down a lot but I was down to 186 this morning. A 3 lbs loss in a month so that is great. My goal was 185 by thanksgiving so I will be close. I still would like to get there and then maintain until the end of the year. I usually gain at least 5 lbs through the holidays so I feel maintaining would be a major accomplishment.0

Down a half pound this week... so 28.5lb since June 2011. 0

I am posting a day late because I couldn't bring myself to weigh in the day after Thanksgiving. I lost about half a pound more, now at 185.2. My goal had been to get to 185 and then maintain through December. On top of the holidays I will have family visiting for over a week, a grandson's birthday, and a party for my mom's 80th birthday. So I feel maintenance would be fantastic. Especially since I gain through the holidays !0

Lost a lb this week. So one lb closer to my goal. I'm starting to dread getting on the scale. It seems what I do doesn't always have an effect on my weight loss. Sometimes I'm really good all week with diet and exercise, and then I gain a lb. I wasn't so good on Wednesday, although I was good the rest of the week. Was surprised when I lost. I'll take it!
How'd ya'll do?0 -
Every lb counts! Congratulations:) don't forget fluid fluctuations will show up on the scale...it's the scale ultimately going down over time that shows you yes! you are going the right way...
As for me:
Weight this morning was 282
Lost 2 lbs:)
I'm sure one of those is thanks to a big poo just prior to weighing in...and I'm taking it hahahahahahahaha!0 -
Back in "okay maintenance" range." I've been at the top of my maintenance range for a few weeks and that makes me nervous. I tightened up my eating this week and feel better.0

I have the same problem. I will do good sticking with my diet and gain 2 lbs. Then Give up and blow it and go down 3. Then I always wonder how much better I would have done if I hadn't blown it!0 -
Yeah! I made my goal of getting to 185. I was 184.7 this morning. I didn't make the goal by Thanksgiving but only about a week late so I am feeling fantastic. Now to maintain that through December! I CAN DO IT!0

No worries - you will do it! Even though it will still seem tough, because Christmas is just like that, Everything on offer will be high cals!
As for me... I weighed in yesterday and have had another week of maintenance. It seems my body does this, several weeks same, then a 2 or 3lb loss, then stuck at the same point again. I swear the needle on our scales must be sticky!!!

Since I just started, I will gladly share on Friday, good job to those who lost and good job to those who maintained....everyone is a winner in God's eyes.0

So maybe that's what my body is doing too. Some weeks I can lose 2 lbs, and then nothing for a week or two. Maybe thru the holidays I should be content with that and try not to gain. Hmmmm.0 -
Weight this morning is 282
No loss/gain for me this week...0 -
In maintenance range, but close to the top. I was actually above at the beginning of the week. My hormones are out of control, and I've been lifting really heavy. I'm trying to increase my calories by 100-200 a day so I can build some muscle mass, but the weight fluctuations and scale creep are totally freaking me out!0
-
Dropped 1 lb this week! I am sure if I was able to exercise I would be able to do better...and I think a lot of my loss is due to not being able to eat the full amount suggested, I am doing what I can though...Congrats to all that lost or maintained this week..Good luck for next week0
-
I have been terrible about participating on the different days and I appologize for that. I will try to do better. I know it would help me stay motivated.
I have changed my goal to maintenance through December to try to reduce stress and guilt feelings. But for some reason I have still been dropping. Fridays weight was 181.5. Because it happened so fast I expect to gain some back but it felt great anyway. My goal is to maintain at 183 until after New Years.0 -
Well I did go up this week by 1 pound. Now 182.5. I didn't record it because I have been eating high sodium so I am hoping to go back down. Still under my maintenance goal so that is good but I would like to get a little under because I can see me gaining a lite during Christmas and New Year0

Weight today 282... No change

Lost another pound, that's 2 for me....know its not fast, but, can't exercise like I used to...no balance thing getting in the way...started physical therapy this week, supposed to get 4 sessions, will see if that helps at all...have a great weekend0

Weight today 280
Lost 2lbs:) 0 -
I was back down this morning. 181.3! Very excited to get under 180. I fully expect to go up through the holidays. We are going on a little getaway between Christmas and the New Year so I will be eating out in between parties. But my goal was not to go over 183. If I do I know I can get it right back off.0
