    So, I did my weigh in this morning and I have not changed at alllllllll over the last week. I've done loads at the gym and have been quite careful with food - sticking to the calorie goal most days and making up for it with exercise if I've gone over.
    I'm puzzled though as I thought you were meant to loosed loads at the starts due to water loss or something and that's not happened.
    Really doesn't help the motivation but I'm trying to tell myself that next week there will definately be movement.....
    Good to see new people on the link!

    Please don't be discouraged I had a long while before I seen any changes also. It takes time for your body to adjust to a new routine so just stay motivated!! You CAN do it!!

    I'll do more in a minute, I can't see all of the messages!

    Also welcome cerealqueen!

    I will update my siggy with my measurements but I am down 1.2lbs since last week and that makes me very happy!! I've been doing so well, I'm also coming off of anti anxiety meds so I'm doing 2 things at once and I'm so proud of myself!

    Welcome Skinnymissy!!

    So happy to have new people joining!! Sorry if I do miss any of you it's just that I'm super busy and the review doesn't let me see everything, just know you are welcomed and we are all here to support you!!

    Coffeegirl: Very happy that you recorded it as it makes you see what you can strive to lose now. Also, you didn't gain much so that could be water.

    Hipsgalore: You will lose that lb in no time!!

    So proud of all of you, keep up the great work!

    Hi all! Despite my best efforts, I ended up at a beach-side eating frenzy on Saturday. Needless to say, I missed my goal for that day. I'm back at it, and hoping to still have a good weigh-in on Thursday. Hope everyone enjoyed the 4th!

    Worried about tomorrow morning's weigh in after the July 4th weekend. I will be happy just not to have gained anything. I am almost positive I did not lose anything. More like maintaining!

    Am really not happy.....weighed myself this morning and for the second week running there is no change at all. I've been within my calorie goal everyday apart from a 'cheat day' and have been doing loads (I think anyway, lol) at the gym.

    How did everyone else get on today? - I hope you've done better - (It kinda helps to motivate me seeing that everyone else is getting there!!)

    You've got to be allowed a 'cheat' day - or in special circumstances, a 'cheat weekend'! - Good luck for today :-)

    Week 3 on MFP: I gained 0.5 pounds, hubby lost 3.5. I had one bad day this past week, but my workouts were good, so I'm sticking with it, and will wait for the changes to happen. At the very least, I'm eating much healthier and getting way more exercise than I was a month ago.

    Hope everyone has a great week!

    Well, I only lost 0.4 lbs this week, but I did not gain, so I will take it as a success. My calories were lowered this week so, this should be interesting!

    Weigh in results: I maintained while gone 6 days on holiday! As I'm only trying to lose .5 lb a week, this is a really good result. I admit, I'm bummed not to see that scale go to 156 yet, but I know this is a huge accomplishment. I totally indulged the last two days of my trip, and then got home and became very strict again the past 2 days-- so it balanced out.

    Did lose 1 inch in waist, and .5 inch in bust (only place I don't want to lose it! ha ha!)

    Actual: around .5 lb weight gain
    New scale: up 4.5 lbs

    Okay, so my home scale sucks and when I went to the doctor's last week I weighed alot more then what my scale said, so I ordered a new more accurate scale and got it today. So if I go by my old scale, I've gained 1/2 pound.

    I entered my new scale weight today and will start using that from now on for hopefully more accurate readings. It is a little dissapointing suddenly "gaining" 4 pounds. :( Oh well. Congrats to all the "losers" hee hee.

    Don't actually own a tape measure so I don't know any other measurements but I might have to go and buy one!

    cereal queen, I don't have a tape measure that goes around my body, so I use a string to get my measurements and use the house tape measure to see how long the string is. Hey, it works. :)

    Hope you're okay now? You can't loose weight every week (and muscle weights more than fat so that might be the reason?), just keep going - when you're better - and good luck!

    Good morning! This was a very good week for me. I lost 3.5 pounds, and half an inch off my hips. Hubby is continuing to lose, too, and informed me this week that he is almost at his high school weight.
    Have a great day! :flowerforyou:

    Weigh in this morning was a good one down 1.5lbs, but seems like more as I had been lugging around extra water weight from bad weekend eating and taking medication!! Getting closer to my goal - 17lbs to go!!! Hope everyone has an awesome weigh in and weekend, I know mine will be we have a family reunion which I am really looking forward to. One thing to be a tad bit worried about is all the yummy food at the potluck on Saturday night :grumble:

    I had a better than expected weigh in this morning as since the accident I was in Saturday I've been doing very little exercise. I was down 1.4lbs but I still can't seem to get past 138lbs!! I will have to try harder once I feel better.

    Great job Lisa and arbragg!! Where is everyone else?

    Great job Anna and Lisa! I gained...I'm at 130.2 up 0.8 from last week which is not bad because I only exercised one time! Yeah I've been slack this week but...we'll see. It is hard because my the gym where group lunch exercise classes are is closed until September I am just completely lost without it...trying to gain motivation to work out once I get home from work but not enough energy...Suggestions ladies?? :frown: :embarassed:

    Sincerely Yours,
    *discouraged Syreeta*

    Hi all! I just saw your thread and I would love to join your weigh in group if that is okay. (I know you started it a while ago.) I don't always weigh myself each week but that is only because I am afraid to see what has happened with it some weeks! lol

    Yay! After maintaining my weight last week, on a 5 day holiday, this week I have reached my target! I'm down 1 lb, (trying to lose .5 lb a week). And in inches, I've lost in some pretty stubborn places: 1/4 inch in my arm, calf and hips! Waist and thigh stayed the same.

    technically down 3.2 pounds, but still not the weight I thought I was with my old scale. Feel like I'm going backwards.

    But great job on all the losses this week. :)

    Good job everyone! Keep it up!

    Syreeta, I don't know what to recommend, because I am too tired to "exercise". I generally try not to sit down until dinner and then I try to keep on my feet after dinner. I find that by not "resting" ( = sitting down), I don't feel as tired and I get a lot of stuff done!

    Jenready: Welcome!!

    Aquavitae, I can relate. I think there is an issue with my scale too. I think my scale is off 15lbs. I KNOW that the loss is real. I think that my beginning weight is wrong. So I am considering adjust everything up (so I still have a total loss but I have 15 more pounds to lose!)

    I forgot to weigh in. I had to go out of town on business and got back really late last night. I totally forgot to weigh in. I will do it tomorrow and post results!!

    Ok, so my scale has been calibrated and my stuff has been updated - I found I have an additional 15.6 lbs to work off. I gained this week. I was kind of down, but then I got to thinking...I just need to work smarter and harder. BUT - I am still ahead of my targeted timeline! Woot woot!

    Last Week: 331.4
    This week: 335.2

    I can sympathise completely! I weighed myself on both the gym and home scales and there was a 6lb difference. I thought the gym scales would be the most accurate (they gave the best reading too!) but having weighed myself on a friends scales at the weekend I think the home scales are correct. It means that in exactly 1 month and 1 week I have lost a total of 2lb, it's completely rubbish (and I lost that the first week). Feeling completely unmotivated but in a strange way also very motivated as I'm sure some MUST come off soon and then I'll be very happy! Can't stand the thought of another bad Thursday weigh in though :-(

    Have a good week everyone
