    Agh I posted on the other board. Whoops! & you still did great this week! I'm sure it's just water weight!!

    Last weeks weight- 222.8
    CW: 219.4
    That's the most I've lost in a week since I've started and I'm going to assume it was because last week was TOM.

    Don't give in. I had two weeks about a month ago that I saw no results but I knew I was doing the right things. I think it was an accumulation of stress, TOM, and building muscle. I am finally seeing results but I really haven't changed anything.

    I'm just hoping I can keep this up.

    Hi! I have tried a ZILLION times to do this and keep failing - I need some serious motivation and accountability!!!

    I am 195 pounds (the heaviest I've ever been...ugh) and I would like to get down to 150 - it seems like such a long journey but I really NEED to do it!

    I liked the parka to bathing suit idea and you all seem very nice and supportive!! Can I join in??

    I forgot to weigh in the morning so I will tomorrow. I have a feeling it's gain, though. Stressful day yesterday so went a little over on my calories. Any pointers on dealing with bad days and avoiding emotional eating?

    Bad week, I know I could have done better. I need to get into the habit of exercise everyday. I wish it would get warm here, and stop raining!! I want to get outside.

    I was wondering why no one posted after me this morning. :laugh: :laugh:

    I am the same this week, but I think I am hovering around a drop... I seem to maintain for a week or 2 then drop.
