    Ok Amelia, I apologize. I am :angry: not a happy camper with this one. I went to a psych one time and was told that when we are really resistive to certain changes it means we REALLY need to make those changes.

    (mine was *****ing at my DH!!)

    So I accept your challenge and I promise you here and now I will NOT weigh until next Wed. And if I do I have to add 1 pound to my ticker!!

    Thank you for this awesome challenge!!:happy: (:grumble: )

    I now know that you are not my friend anymore Amelia. It is good that I figured this out this earlier in the game! :laugh: :happy: JK!

    I have to weigh tomorrow night at the weight loss support group I started at the church, I really do have to, because the ladies there all whine about getting on the scale, who doesn't want to get on the scale if you worked your butt off during the week. You can definitely tell who is working in that group, all different ages and lifestyles and some can't wait to see their progress and others act that the scale is a loaded gun that is suddenly going to go off! :grumble:

    I weigh every morning and night so this will kill me, but I will try really hard! Cross my heart!

    Oh did I tell you my fngers are crossed behind my back! JK!

    Good morning all!! Good thing I weighed yesterday 80000 times cause I to am addicted to the scale. I will have to have hubs remove it from the bathroom so I don't accidentally step on it! :laugh:

    So I was worried about nothing the other day. I got on yesterday morning and was up 2 pounds but worked my butt off last night. then before I went to bed I weighed again and it said 187.6 at 11pm so I figured either the same or a loss and I was surprised with a whole pound!! 183.6! YAY ME!!!:bigsmile: :blushing: I am not having to exersice for more calories now so I think that makes me happy too. I get to exersice because I want too. :bigsmile:

    Anyways off to enter weights will be back shortly!!

    Oh, I forgot - I do need to step on the scale tomorrow for my fitness center weekly weigh in.

    How about if I don't look at it? My trainer could just record it and tell me next week..:wink::wink:

    I hereby pledge to the Black Team that (with the one exception of tomorrow at 11:30 am) I will not step on a scale of any type, so help me God!!

    I will also eat at least 3 servings of fruit or veggies a day
    measure and log everything I eat
    do some type of ab exercise at least 4 days a week.

    Love this challenge..

    Are we piling challenges on each other? Like each challenge is meant to be carried on PAST the week it was initiated?

    Woah, woah, woah!. The day the ab challenge was over, I was done with it! None of this carrying over stuff for me!

    I have a doctor's appointment on Friday so I'll probably get weighed in. But I never go by their scale because it's different than what I use and I'm not about to strip down in the middle of the hall to make sure I get an accurate weight. :laugh:

    Loree, I also have not kept up with the ab challenge very well. I hate sit-ups, I walk around and remember to hold my stomach in, surely that counts for something.

    At the doctor's office, I've been known to not only take my shoes and any extra garments off, but also my earrings, glasses ... :noway: :laugh:

    Have a great day, Black Team!!

    Oh this isn't a challenge for me. I keep mine in a closet in a room with carpeting. So when I weigh myself I have to take it out of the closet and into a different room. I'm so lazy that it's a challenge for me to get it out once a week to weigh in.:bigsmile:

    Okay, I'm not a scale addict so I think I can do this one without a problem. Thanks for the chuckles and the visuals, really needed them. Is it SPRING yet?

    Andrew that is an excellent idea, but it sounds like you are sort of like me. I would also use the Fed-Ex search button a zillion times.

    Amelia and Black Team, I do solemnly swear not to weigh myself, except tomorrow night for my weight loss group, until next Wednesday morning. I promise to do this with lots of whining, bellyaching, crying and making the team miserable. I solemnly swear that by the time this challenge is over you will all be like, SHUT UP, give the girl a scale.

    Have a wonderful day, Team Black! :flowerforyou:
