I was so busy yesterday I forgot to check in. Sorry!

No change for me this week but at least it's not a gain. Plus my scale only goes by half pounds, it doesn't go to tenths so it's hard to tell because i could be down or up by .4 lb and my scale would show the same.

I see some great losses from everyone this week! Great job everyone!

I did the mission statement as my mission while working out...so it's not quite like everyone else whose mission statement is for life. I decided on my mission statement as: "You don't get it by staring, you don't get it by wishing, you don't get it by drooling, you don't get it by hoping, you don't get it easy. You get it by getting off your butt, working for it, every second of every day for the rest of your life." That really helped me get out of bed for my bike ride this morning, reminding myself that I won't get it by laying in bed thinking about it, but by getting up and working for it. It's really a Nike Ad (some MFPers have it in their signature) and it's now my desktop background.

I will definitely try to drink my extra water!

My weigh-ins are always from my most recent personal weigh-in. I'm in a bunch of different challenges that all have different weigh-in days but I only weigh once per week. So this is my weigh-in from the weekend and I am soooo hoping I am down to 138.0 by next week. I'm trying so hard to beat this plateau!

Edited to add: I got in my extra glass of water each day!

It is ok. I got the phone call for a job interview last Wednesday and the interview was yesterday. It is a job I have been trying to get for over 2 years. I gave into stress eating and stressed a lot. I was over calories some days and very close others.

Last week I saw no change, so I'm excited to finally see something out of the scale. I'm just trying to keep eating good and exercising . . . I just keep telling myself to "stay focused on the prize"

I'm a little late getting on...I was traveling for work (again!) and didn't have a scale. I am posting today's weight, but it probably is the same as last Wed...because it is basically the same as the Wed before! I have been stuck forever! I talked to a dietitian this week and she suggested I bump up my daily calories to 1600 from 1200...it makes me nervous, but I am going to give it a shot!! She said I may see a gain for a week or two while my body adjusts...anxiety attack! This will be a good way for me to track it!!

man i have put on this week. i will have a loss next week

Good job everyone! I'm not looking forward to weighing in. I actually am waiting until after work since I'm pretty sure I will weigh less later in the day. The past week hasn't been too friendly on my diet, but I feel I made the best decisions I could. Tom is coming soon and just hoping to get through it as fast as possible. Workout time has been very scarce. I just need to bite the bullet and wake up at 5 to work out before work.

Good luck to everyone who hasn't weighed in yet.
