    I'll just post this mornings weight even though it makes me sad.
    Current Weight: 165.4 :ohwell:

    BUT my measurements encourage me a bit more because I hadn't checked them since last month and I even lost off my THIGHS this month which never happens...even though we don't keep track of that here...

    Last Month / This Month
    arms: 11.5" / 11"
    waist: 30.5" / 29.5"
    hips: 39.25" / 39

    For a total loss of 2.25 inches gone (when counting both arms)!!! :happy:

    Good Morning, I almost missed the chance. I really need to find time for the boards again.
    I did weigh in yesterday but had to take my measurements this morning.
    148.4, arms 11”, waist 28”, and hips 38. I don’t think that is too much of a change, I really want to start focusing on inches and not lbs.

    Just a quick question...when you ladies measure your waist are you measuring it at the smallest part or just above the belly button? I think I've been doing it wrong all this time!!! :blushing:

    I saw your comment on my blog too...I measure at the narrowest point which is about 2 inches above my belly-button :happy: & I measure my hips at the widest point which is actually slightly above them at my "hate handles" :grumble:

    I measuer from the smallest part. The same way we do it for the Navy. But when my husband takes my measurements he does over my belly button.

    I measure my largest part (my love handels) and then my smallest part of my waist. But what really matters is that you always measur the same area every time you do your measurments.

    Wow. The thread has been quiet this week! I am having a wonderful week!!! After our weigh-in last Sunday I decided it was finally time to PUT AWAY THE SCALE because it was just stressing me out! So it has been in our closet for the last 6 days & tomorrow I will step on it for the first time in a week. I think it has been so good for me to focus on my body & not that number. As much as I love seeing numbers go down, what's important is how I feel & how I look! I'll be a bit dissapointed if it goes up, but if it's the same or goes down, I'll be thrilled. I hope everyone is have a good week as well & that you enjoy your weekend :flowerforyou: Thanks again to ALL of you for you continued support & friendship :smile:

    I am soooo pleased & am not going to step on the scale again until next Sunday! I really like not being a slave to it any more.

    My weight for this morning is 181.00, I had a lot of calories left over yesterday so I am really hoping this loss isn't because of that and I am going to do best to keep this one I really like the number.

    Well, this time the batteries are actually dead and seem to have no more juice left. Won't be weighing in until I remember to get new ones so for now I'm sticking with my current weight of 156.6

    Hello my lovelies!

    I just got back from holiday and I stepped on the scale yesterday afternoon and it seems I might have been able to maintain this week! I'm very excited about that as I've never been able to maintain on holiday! But I've got TOM so will wait a few days to see what my weight balances out at - so won't be weighing in this week but will definitely post next Sunday.

    I have to say, I did miss you all! It's so tough not to have MFP access for a week and so easy to fall back into old habits. Luckily the 6 hours of skiing each day made up for some bad choices.

    Glad to be back into my routine now though! Now off for a run...

    See ya and good luck for this week xx

    You ladies where the only one that weighed in this week. ( I had a small gain) you women really brought it this week and rocked it! great job. You guys did awesome !!!! Congrats Kendra on your win this week. Good job.

    It sounds like a lote of us are getting burned out on weighting in every week. I think that we sould do our next weight in and measure in one month from now. What do you all think. I know I'm getting burned out on weighing in every week and not be happy with my lb loss. Maybe if we took our measurement monthly we would not be so burned out. Let me know what you all think. p.s there are only 95 more days left!

    So the next weigh-in & measurement post will be April 17th?
    I guess that's fine with me. I like to hold myself accountable to other people and have a place to post some thoughts about the week and whatnot, but I'm in 2 other challenges right now, so I guess I can post there :ohwell: I hope that everyone has a great next month!!! :happy:

    kendradl Posts: 595 Member
    I also like having people to be accountable to as well, whoever that may be. I will continue to weight myself every week either way.

    Congrats Kendra and Mandie! You girls are on a roll!! I like weighing in on this thread as well so I'd like to keep weighing in every week. Alyshe, if you find it too difficult to keep posting the results every week I'd quite happily help out! Or maybe we can have a rota :-)

    Afternoon Ladies!
    I know I missed Sunday's weigh-in, but personally I like weighing in weekly and only measurement once a month. For me, my actual weigh in date is on Friday so I always have to come back to and post. I was out of town on Sunday, I attended my trainers Body building contest and then went out with my hubby immediately when I returned home. My time with him is getting short and today is his duty day. Man, sometimes I just want to kidnap him but I know it would not be good.

    Great job Kendra and Mandie!

    We'll keep posting each week then :-D I'm glad to know that you are not getting burnded out on it. What if we take turns posting the info and winner and info each week?
  • Ding724
    Ding724 Posts: 791 Member
    I'm sure we can rotate & keep up with anyone that checks in for the week! :happy: I'm glad some of us will still be checking in, even though my scale doesn't like to move as quickly as I'd like :laugh:

    Also, I did my measurements again the other day & my body fat has gone from 40% last July to 25.5% :happy:
  • kendradl
    kendradl Posts: 595 Member
    I think taking turns to post our weekly info is a great idea.

    Congrats Mandie on your body fat % loss, that is awesome!!!

    Thanx to everyone for the congrats, still hoping I can maintain that for this week :smile:
