    I am also up a pound but am happy to say I logged everything, which I also thought was depressing.:cry: I did eat out for lunch both Saturday and Sunday due to family events so that did not help. This next week I will continue to log everything and add in lots more water. I noticed how little water I drink on the weekends so those are my 2 goals this week. Good luck everyone! Now that I got a week down, I'm optimistic about this :tongue: Oh I also wanted to mention I don't have a reunion so I kinda feel like the odd ball here but I am going to Vegas the end of June and that's why I joined this group because nothing else has seemed to work.

    no reunion required! vegas will probably be more fun than a reunion anyway. i'm actually going to vegas 1 week before my reunion (and its also my 1 year wedding anniversary), so i have 2 things to work for! i would love to weigh 10 lbs less than i did at the wedding for our anniversary! good luck this week!

    I'm a slacker. I was out of the office yesterday and forgot to post.

    I was down one pound last week.

    good job losing another pound! i weighed myself again this morning and i'm back down to last week's weight...even though i kept it more under control than normal this last weekend, i still drank some wine sunday night and i think that caused me to weigh a little more monday. we'll see what next monday brings!

    oh and i added another 10 lb to my final goal. my old goal was what i wanted to lose by the reunion, but i don't think that's possible now - i'd have to consistently lose 2 lb per week and based on past results, i don't think that's going to happen. so now i'm just going to lose as much as i can by the reunion, and keep going from there.

    what do you guys do? do you put your final goal or your mini goals in your ticker? and is there a feature that predicts when you will meet your final goal, based on the information you enter about starting/ending weight and how much exercise per week?

    My ticker is my first big goal. I think I can maintain 2lbs a week until that weight. After that I'm going down another 20 pounds but that will be a pace at one pound a week.

    My ticker weight is what I weighed when I graduated HS so I'm certainly wanting to be there by the reunion.

    yahoo way to go! i'm down 1...not bad considering i went over my calories both sat and sun (not by as much as usual though!). i'm finding its getting easier to refuse temptations to overeat every day!

    Great job! Keep up the good work. Each temptation defeated is a small victory.

    Good job guys! Sorry I was up north all weekend and no access to a computer. Thus I could not log what I ate which I think is why I'm up a pound. Really it's no change from last week because that pound I gained when I wrote here last Monday I lost during the week but then gained it back this weekend.

    I just saw your post and caught up on reading this thread. I am wondering if I can join your group as well. My 10 year is in November and I want to drop 40 pounds before then. Plus I noticed you went to the Angel game. I live in Orange County as well and have been to a couple of games. You are right, there is not a lot to choose from at the stadiums.

    wow i was bad this weekend...my family was in town and i didn't record anything. we went to a wedding catered with mexican food so i think i blew my whole day's worth of calories there alone. somehow i still lost another pound, i'm flabbergasted but relieved!

    tonight i'm going back to the gym...haven't been in a long time since i've been busy!

    I unexpectedly spent an extra two days on the road last week, which means I did not eat well. Somehow I didn't gain. :smile:

    I did alright this week. No gain, but still disappointed that I didn't have a loss. Hopefully this week I'll lose.

    hopefully! there were times when i kept trying and trying and the scale wasn't moving too, especially right after i started working out (after a long period of inactivity). did you just start working out again? if so you could be gaining muscle but losing fat, so you're not seeing a net loss.

    Yes I've been working out. I did 4 days last week with the weekend as my break and started up again this week. I have been slowly working up my working up my workout routine after a winter and I guess spring of inactivity :laugh:

    weekly check in time...so monday i was up 1.5 pounds from last week. boo on that. but i wasn't surprised, considering i went beer tasting on saturday. weighed in again today and i am only .2 lb up from where i was last week. so i'm ok with that. probably still won't update it in my ticker though :tongue:

    how is everyone else doing? my reunion is now just over 3.5 months away!
