    I am new to this group and am excited to get started. I have been so called dieting since the first of the year. Did weight watchers, lost 12 pounds, lost my motivation and then gained 7 pound of my 12 back. Someone told me about MFP and I have been doing for about a month, but not faithfully. So here is my starting weight. 251.4, so hopfully by next tuesday I will be at 249.4.

    Welcome new members! I'm excited to see so many people wanting to do this :)

    KP556 - I know what you mean about being addicted to the scale - but it's a slippery slope. I'm going to try to put the scale away and only bring it out on Tuesdays.

    Yeah, I love getting on that one too..but as long as it shows me what i want to see, the number going DOWN:grumble: I weight my self about twice a week and I always keep in mind that if it went up, it's water retention or food waste. I blame it on those only if I've been a good girl, because we know what being naughty means..:grumble: :laugh:
    I do tend to start weighing more when the scale has been moving very slooooowly ....

    Why is it that I'm become very impatient for Tuesday to come. I'm so exited but at the same time nervous that my numbers haven't changed or may have gone up. Ahhhhhhhh...

    I know what you mean. I have been working out and watching my eating. Lets see on Tuesday

    I had to move my scale so I wouldn't be tempted - keep doing things right and it will all be worth it. I think it helps to keep me motivated to not weigh myself daily. If I saw progress, I might 'ease up' on what I do or eat - which wouldn't help.
    What a vicious cycle!

    Come ON Tuesday

    I'd like to join this thread. I know it is a little late but I am willing to try at least 1 pound by Tuesday and then there after the two.

    So far today I have been doing pretty good. I have kept under my calorie total and got in some riding of the bike for 30 min. Didn't get my weight lifting in because the gym was closed for Saturdays now. I forgot that and wished I had gone last night and got it in. Oh well. Just have to get the time in during the week now. Hoping for that that one pound by Tuesday and if a miracle happens, 2 pounds. :wink: See you alll later!

    Didn't loose two pounds this week but lost one. I guess it is one by one for me. But at least it is a loss.
