    Don't know how I did it but I lost another 2 lbs this week. I have had a very emotional week. With a possible break up (we're taking a break after 5 YEARS), emotional stress and commitment overlaod I've eaten junk and laid around. Last night I ate a bag of AREO bubbles. I thank my lucky stars that it didn't show up on the scale. I felt bad after eating junk and being lazy so I have re-commited myself to lose weight. And to breathe and relax. This is a great group! It's nice to see that everyone goes through the same problems and challenges and people are there to support each other. But now I'm babbling.... Here are my stats

    SW: 250
    CW: 244
    GW: 150

    I've noticed some people have mini goals. I think I might make one/some too! That way I can have (big) mini accomplishments to feel good about. Hope everyone had a good week and if not there's always next week! Stay positive.

    I'm right there. I've got a bit more than 100, but this is my main goal. I'm ready for the journey.
    I lost 15 from the start of the year, but after a vacation about two weeks ago, I managed to gain back nearly 10 of the 15 I'd lost.
    Sad. Starting over. Down three again. No more excuses for me. Time to get going and stop chasing squirrels.
    I'm back to my daily walking and back on the wagon.

    Good morning (I am on the west coast),
    I have been checking weight daily and officially reporting about every 2 weeks. This week I lost 2 more pounds which averages to about a pound a week since I started.

    SW: 260 reported based on old scale, actual was 262 based on old scale
    End of week 2: 258 which was actually 4 lbs
    CW: 252 because I lost 2 more pounds and am now using a more accurate scale.

    (My ticker shows 8, plus the 2 pounds lost not reported at the start minus 3-5 pounds which is the amount over that my old scale said I was) Are you confused? I am. However I have also lost inches from every measurement since I started. Don't worry I started with a new tape measurer so probably won't have to get a new one soon.

    I also wanted to say that I have been adding friends in this group a few at a time but feel free to add me if I missed you. I am doing pretty good at reaching out for being shy.

    I sure have missed everyone! I haven't been able o post for a couple of days, only log my food on my phone, and I have been going through MFP withdrawals!:huh:

    So I see we have so many new members, welcome!!! I timed out on adding sme of you as friends, so PLEASE ADD ME!!:love:

    I love love love it that so many of you have LOST weight this week!!! WOO HOO!!!:bigsmile:

    I, on the other and, along with a couple of others, haven't done so well. :indifferent:

    But for me, considering the glutton I've made of myself this past week, I'll take the 1 pound gain, but I'm STILL mad about i!!:grumble:

    However, today is a new day! Time to refocus! It's all good, and I'm gonna move my butt this week, and lose some of this unwanted fat!!!:noway:

    Congrats to all who lost weight! I LOVE YOU!! :heart:

    I'd like to join in!!
    My name's Jennifer, I need to lose 140 pounds total. I'm trying to lose at least 100 of that before we start trying for another baby, I had a second-trimester miscarriage earlier this year and I'm afraid it was because I was overweight.
    This is my second week really sticking to it, and I lost 2.8 pounds this week, and one inch off of my hips.

    Hi everyone count me in. I have 100 to lose to be better but 115 would be awesome (since i am a shorty lol). Found out this last winter that I had a hypothyroid (to bad it took me years to get a doc to listen to me) so now I am walking myself smaller. I have lost about 20 pounds so far and it is nice to have extra room in my clothes.

    Well ladies ( and maybe a couple gents?) I had a very good week with eating and exercising yet saw no numbers move on that silly scale this morning but I will not be discouraged! Better no change than an up change! I have been doing an extreme amount if strength training and so I feel I may have gained some much needed muscles which is fine with me! I have lost 5 inches in my waist so I'm very happy with that! Everyone is doing such a wonderful job! I'm proud of all of you, way to take a chance to change your life and become healthy even if we don't see weightloss every week at least were staying healthy!!! :)

    Hey all!

    Volume I: I joined MFP a couple of years ago and made no diet progress. Last fall, I did really well losing the first 30 pounds. End of story.

    Volume II: Time to kick this diet thing in the butt. Lost 10 pounds in the past month, I officially have 100 pounds remaining to shed. To be continued...

    Looking forward to losing and musing with all of you!!
    ~Pam

    Remember to be food conscious over the weekend!! (No pizza rewards for progress, unless it's veggie! :wink: )

    I lost 6 lbs this week. I so was not expecting that, been just stressful. Am very thankful for the loss though, normally I gain with stress lol but then again there is no "junk/comfort" food in the house. I'm making everyone eat healthier and lose some weight with me. Everyone is doing well though! Congrats to all.

    hiii!! me too ^__^

    i've come to realize that i shouldn't rely on weighing myself so much. when i was initially working out, i was so discouraged every time i see the scale go up that I'd give up on a program right there and then. i kept on forgetting that muscle weighs more than fat, and I should just go by how i look and feel, especially when clothes are becoming looser even though i happened to only lost 2lbs after a month of working out..

    i've completed insanity and now starting turbofire.. i'm excited.. i gauge myself according to how my clothes fit and not necessarily my weight. i still need to lose 100lbs because it's too much on my joints. one shouldn't do a high impact program such as insanity without consulting a physician. it definitely took a toll on my knees. now i have to supplement with glucosamine/chondroitin to help me.. so far so good.

    i wish everyone luck!! we can do this!!

    Wow! I am amazed at how this group has grown. Welcome to everyone!
    I missed yesterday and have not been on in the past couple of weeks. I guess that happens when you go back to work. Hopefully things will slow down a bit and I will have more time. On a good note though I have still been managing to get in exercise about 4 times a week where before it was 6 or 7; however, at least I have not stopped.
    My food choices have not been the greatest because by the time I get home from work I am too tired to make something so we went out to eat the past two nights.
    My great news though was that I was still down 4 lbs this week. This is a great loss and I am so happy! It will not be official until Monday when I actually record my weight; however I am almost to 10% of my body weight lost!!

    I hope everyone has a great weekend and mades good choices!
