Need to Lose 100 LBS -Robins Thread !

I've been having some trouble with my Internet and then my Wi-Fi and had to go through and reprogram everything in my house so I skipped updating last week and was too busy to figure out why my scale wasn't syncing to update this Monday. I know....excuses. Sorry. Used this as an excuse not to log all of my food too. The truth is, I've only had one foot on the trolley and haven't been doing as well as I should and I know it.

Anyway, the scale is back on the Wi-Fi and syncing again now so I can't use that as an excuse anymore. Will have to do it all over again next month when I change internet providers because the one we have is just not dependable.

Don't think I'm going to make my goal, but I have three weeks to at least lose a few pounds

I definitely need to be a part of this group starting Monday.

I have exactly 100lbs to lose. I’m not sure how to add friends but I could really use some support and motivation. I’ve lose 60lbs on my own before. This time is definitely more difficult.

Welcome to @consuelo73, @GOINSTD12 and @rinskeep1! The first step is the hardest but utiilize motivation tapes as much as possible. They help me a lot. I listen to one every night before bed and other times as well. Also, when I logged (even if I stray) that helps. Best wishes to all of you.

GOISTD12 - I hope you are taking CoQ10. That is so helpful for congestive hard failure

Back from a week in Ft Myers. Did pretty good all things considered. Time to stop playing games with my health and life and get rid of this weight once and for all. I must put this front and center. I must add exercise. Sort of stressed. Just finished Xmas decorating and my house is a mess. Two parties to give (25 people and 32 people) and I have to buy gifts for the 32 before the 15th. Three parties to attend and I have to prepare a dish for two of them. Also I have to drive to my cabin (1.5 hr one way) Tuesday and may have to go back one day this week. Take a deep breath, breathe, breathe


But regardless, weight loss must be primary

Finally back in my groove, finally back to the gym. Inching up 40 pounds lost! I feel it in my clothes, I feel it in my endurance, strenght, agility, breathing. I don't see it in the mirror, but others tell me they do, so It'll come in time

Debcountsall: She herself has lost some weight but mostly thru exercise. Thanks for the advice

I'm going to a party tomorrow evening and I'm taking a large platter of shrimp. I'll stick to that, bottled water in my wine glass and I know there will be a veggie platter. That should keep my hands occupied. I plan to get to know at least two people there better. I think I have just reached a saturation point where I am so unhappy with myself there is no where to go but up (In this case up is down, down with the weight and down with the bad habits that rob me of health)

I"m feeling confident that I can master these parties without sabotaging myself. Others have done this sucessfully, why can't I

Nov 3 / 238.8 If I only stepped on a scale once a week, I’d be disappointed with this. Since I weigh and post daily on another thread, I know exactly why I didn’t lose weight (in fact, gained a bit midweek then lost it) so I know my struggles ARE showing progress even when I stumble.
Nov 10 / 237.4 / I weighed less yesterday, but last night’s dinner wasn’t until 9 pm and that really affects me even if the calories and sodium are on point.
Nov 18 / 237.6 / Last weekend I was out of town. Saturday the 10th I did fine, got my water in, and didn’t go off plan. Sunday the 11th I went completely off the rails. It has taken me *all* of this week just to get back to where I was last Saturday morning. This would be fine if I was on maintenance, but I’m not. I think I need this lesson now, right before the holidays, to really understand what one day’s overindulgence nets.
Nov 24 / 237.6 / Maintaining over Thanksgiving is definitely better than I managed two weeks ago.
Dec 1 / 235.8 / Yay!

Hi, all. Wanting to join, but unsure how you work together! I can give you my basic stats and a few goals:
Name: Amy
Age: 49

HW: 309
SW: 301 (late Oct.)
CW: 285
1st mini-goal: 275
2nd mini-goal: 250

The first 6 weeks I worked on CICO, water and portion control. I'm now adding in intentional exercise and strength training. I started my own arts marketing agency about 6 years ago, married with 2 boys 12 and 10, always on the go, so I'm not sedentary but I haven't made time for actual exercise. That's the gist.

Overall, hoping to eventually get to 175, but am focusing on the mini goals for now! Feel free to friend me.

Welcome! I'd love to hear about the strength training.
