    There's a great motivator for me to weigh-in on Weds...
    Since it's Hump Day, I tend to push just that extra bit into the weekend.

    I'll be here manana!

    Stats:
    I'm down an entire pound since my Monday weigh-in!
    Since it's Hump Day that means that I may hit a significant lb drop by week's end...thx for the motivation to post:tongue:

    I've been stuck for several weeks now, so this is my new move!
  • Good job so far, everyone! I posted this to keep a few of us from weighing in every day...we all know how much our weight fluctuates. I'm sticking to weighing in on just Wednesdays!

    I just stepped off the scale....

    Original weight: 130.0
    7/14/10: 127.8

    Wooo! Well on my way!!!

    I'd love to hop on board! I was going to join Weight Watchers again just because I seem to need to be faced with someone seeing my weight. It's so silly, but this is totally mental to me. I don't want to pay the weekly fee if I don't have to, so I thought a weigh in group would do the same thing for me but for free! Good luck to all and see you again on Wednesday!

    See you all tomorrow!!

    I am amazed how many people weigh on a wednesday, I do it coz, if I happen to have a bad weekend (on the odd occassion) I have a couple of days to make up for it before I have to weigh!! I know its naughty but it gets me back on track. So i'm in. Will post tomorrow (British time)

    :happy:

    I'll come back tomorrow to post my weight. I've been trying for over three weeks now to watch what I eat and get into the exercise routine. Hard, so very hard, but if I've lost some tomorrow, it will have been well worth it. I see the doctor tomorrow, so I'm going by his scales. The downfall is that I don't see him until the afternoon. Still, any loss is better than none. Good luck to everyone. :)

    :cry:

    Ok.....wednesday is here and I am very gutted as I put on 1lb this week. I have been really good and exercised loads, oh well best be even better this week. Do you think the time you weigh will make much of a difference?? I usually weigh in the evening but today i weighed in the morning!!??

    Even though I am gutted I did not loose, I have lost 1/2 inch on my waist and 1 inch from my arms.....thats got to be a good thing??

    Hope everyone else does well

    Tx
  • The scale was kind this morning. I lost another pound or so to bring my weight down to 125.2! I can't even remember the last time the scale was that low! Yippie!!!!

    tjbeer: That's great that you're losing inches! Congrats! The scales might not be budging because you're gaining muscle. You won't see that sort of change on a scale, but it will reflect in your measurements. But it does make a difference what time of day you weigh yourself. Your weight can fluctuate by as much as four pounds in a day! To stay accurate, I think it's best to weigh yourself at the same time every day. For me, I weigh-in first thing in the morning (get it out of the way, plus I don't have to worry so much about water weight, and I completely agree that the scale tends to be nicer on Wednesday anyway). But if you weigh in in the evening, that's fine, too...maybe if you keep it consistent you'll see more results.

    Scott3188: Welcome! Glad to have you!

    txladybug49: Good luck at the doctor. The plus side of weighing yourself there is that you can check your scale's accuracy against the docs...you KNOW his has to be right!

    Keep it up, everyone! Congratulations to those who lost today, and may next week be better for those who didn't. We can do this!!

    I have had the day to contemplate and I do agree with you, I am gaining muscle and I had a sneak cheat this pm and weighed again and would have lost, but I am going to stick with the morning weigh in to get the right balance. So fingers crossed I will see a difference next week.

    Well done collegegirl2 for losing.

    See you next week

  • I belong to a weight loss group that normally weighs in on wednesdays but we're taking the week off tonight since we're in between sessions. I'll start posting on here next wednesday what my weight is. I've been doing the very bad taboo of weighing myself everyday, since the gym so conveniently has a scale but NO MORE. I pledge today to not use that scale again, and only weigh in on wednesday with my group. Thanks for the encouragement to not do what I knew I shouldnt be doing.

    I never liked weighing in with others...due to the fact i was always afraid of what they would think upon seeing how much i weigh. But its good to have the support.

    innitial weigh-in 306.5 Monday July 19th
    Today 303
    My Goal 180

    Ive always been a heavy-set guy but im putting my foot down. 306.5 was the most ive ever weighed my entire life. I used to be 230 back in Highschool and just kept packing on the pounds. Its out on the table for you all now. Im ready to get in shape!

    Ok, my weight this afternoon: 202 on the scale at the drs office. I lost five pounds from my last visit. Actually, he's not a dr, but a pharmacologist who sees me on a month to month basis to help me analyze my diet, medications, and exercise since i'm diabetic. It's part of medication management program and it has helped me a lot.

    On my last visit to him, about 30 days ago, these were my numbers. Triglycerides were 255.. I am now 134. Cholesterol levels were down and the good part of it was up ( I forget if it's HDL or the other one) My glucose on the last visit was 177 and now it was 124. My AIC is still up, but on my last visit the level was 9.8 and now it is 9.2. He expects as long as I continue to exercise, all these numbers will maintain at a good level or go down further. My blood pressure is also down by 30 points. . And he said I was on target for my daily average glucose readings by 40 % versus the 8% I did last month.

    He was very proud of me and I was too. He wrote "great job" on his comment sheet.

    I wished I had lost more weight but these other numbers are very exciting and encouraging. It does prove that building up exercise and watching what you eat does make a difference. Whoooo Hooo!!

    :smile:
  • Congratulations everybody! Let's keep it up this week, and remember...stay off those scales till next Wednesday!

    Oh, and txladybug41-I'm impressed!! Great job.

    Scott3188-That's very brave of you and we're glad you're here with us.

    See you all next week....and I'd also like to open up this group to anyone that needs help and support to not weigh in every day, so if you need some help saying 'no,' post it here!

    Hiya can I join you?

    I have not been doing the diet for the last month due to holidays, so I stepped back on the scales on Wed and I have put on 2lbs in 4 weeks, which is not bad considering I went on an All Inclusive Holiday.

    So currently weigh 161

    Would love to get to 147 eventually.

    Of course! Glad to have you! We focus on weighing in once a week, instead of letting the scales rule our lives, so we meet here every Wednesday to report on how we did for the week and to weigh-in. Feel free to post anything you'd like...we could all use a little motivation/support/whatever now and then!

    See you Wednesday!
  • Weigh in tomorrow! See you soon....
