      Way to go everyone!!!! So glad that so many of you weighed in!!! BUT I also noticed that that a WHOLE BUNCH of June starters didn't...:smile:
      Its all good, but weighing in really holds us accountable...and I don't know about you, but I can use all of the accountability I can get!!
      Ok, guys!! Good luck with this next week. THis is my third week, as I know it is for many of you!! Good luck guys! Lets do this thing!!! :happy: :happy: :heart:

      Everyone is doing great. Even those who didn't lose but don't usually weigh in on Mondays feel proud. It is one thing to compare a Monday to Monday weigh in from now on, since it is a true week, but don't compare if you normally weigh in Wed (or for me Fridays) it isn't a full week, and you made it through the weekend. last Monday I was 3 lbs heavier than the Friday previous. Now Monday to Monday is easier on my ego in the long run I think.

      Did that make sense to anyone but me?

      Oh well, keep on truckin' . I think we are all doing great. the sustainable weight loss takes longer. :wink:

      I'm totally on the same page with you!!! Made perfect sense!! :smile:

      Hi everyone, I was seriously bored at work today so I've started a chart, kind of like the blue team, with % lost and change etc on excel. I should have it finished by tomorrow and then I'll figure out a way to post it.

      You SO TOTALLY ROCK!!!!

      OOPS! I had a "bad" weekend :blushing: actually, I had a GREAT weekend, I just ate a lot! lol!

      I usually weigh in on wednesday mornings to give myself a buffer from the weekend so I think I'll recheck on wednesday, just to see. Luckily, I didn't gain any weight! phew! BTW, alcohol has SO MANY CALORIES! I'm sure we all already knew that, but when you have to log it, it really opens the eyes!

      SW: 164
      CW: 161...still
      GW: 144-ish, I haven't seen the 40s since highschool, so I'll be ecstatic to be 149!
      mini-goal: 154 by my bday, August 1st.

      QUESTION: I keep seeing people talk about losing 5 lbs, 4lbs, sometimes even 7lbs in the first couple weeks! HOw come that didn't happen to me! :sad:
      Also- do you guys think my mini goal is do-able?!?? I just kind made it up, but that's another 7 pounds to lose in basically five weeks and at the rate I'm going...I don't know if I'm gonna make it!!!

      I know all about the weekends. I was bad :devil: this past weekend! Maybe that is out of my system now and I can move forward! That is my goal this week. I gained a few pounds back. :cry:

      Hello Ladies!
      Sorry I posted on the wrong thread yesterday. I had only lost one pound yesterday but when I got on the scale this morning I had gained one pound and I ate well yesterday... Not sure what the deal is but it is really getting me down. I am trying to keep it positive and not give up but it's hard.:grumble:
      So here goes:
      SW: 178.5
      6/22/09: 175.5

      Hope everyone has a great afternoon!

      I messed up.....I gave in. I thought just a little won't hurt.....Now I am miserable. I am a failure. Why do I even try? :cry: I always start off good in the mornings, I actually went for a brisk 30 min walk before work and then look what happens. I think it is a mental thing----I see food, I want food, I eat food. I feel really down.....

      I hope I have good news to report next Monday.

      Day 2 went ok. Day 1 went much better. Need to get more water into me. Any suggestions?
      Now to go home and convince my DH or daughter to go for a bike ride with me. If not, guess I'll go it alone.

Just stay strong... YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!! Don't give in to that discouragement.

      Yahoo!! Today is a new day! We are having a health screening on site today, here at work. I just got through with some tests; cholesterol, blood pressure, BMI, etc... this year everything is normal---great for my age, heighth. Last year I was 30 pounds heavier and high cholesterol and blood pressure! This had made my day! I am starting off strong this morning! I hope everybody else is having a great Wednesday! (A lot better today than yesterday!!) Thank you MFP friends for the encouragement!
