Week #1 Weigh In

Posts: 35 Member
edited December 2024 in Social Groups
Hi Guys,

Just thought Id start a thread for everyone to post on any day that is their first week weigh in, then next time we'll start a new thread for week #2 etc.

Today I am -3lbs!! Im amazed by this and please dont think this is what I get all the time. From my first post on the original topic:

SW: 217
CW: 201
GW: 154 overall,
184 by 09/09/12 as last weigh in before a hol in Greece,
174 by 07/10/12 for this but I have the hol so to have lost 30lbs total by then will only be 187 but I count that as a cheat GW/if I gain GW lol.

So 27lbs to go for real challenge and 14lbs for cheat 30lbs GW.

Welcome!

    Wow thats a huge loss - well done!


    How demotivating is this thread (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/129498-50-pounds-by-june-1st-challenge) where people still only have 6lb loss on their ticker? many didnt achieve their goal. Well, I guess its kinda motivating because I dont want to be that.

    My weigh in day is Wednesday, but here's my first weigh in from last week.

    SW - 233
    Challenge SW - 205.5
    GW - 175
    Week 1 - 203 (-2.5)

    I'm nursing an injury and haven't been able to exercise for a week. Did a few gentle moves this morning to test and I'm not ready yet. Guess I need to wait, as it still hurts to simply walk. (sigh)

    Down 2.6!! I am amazed! This is the first weight I have dropped in forever!

    Aw Im so glad that so many of you who have found it difficult before are losing this time! For me, Id only lost like 5 or 6 pounds before because I thought that Id stop losing after that but Ive realised that really I gave up before it had any chance to stop itself - if I keep within my cal goals, no matter the treats I actually fit in or how hard it is when theres food everywhere, it works :) My once 'tight everywhere' trousers are now soooo baggy Im ashamed of wearing them (I didnt buy more cos I secretly thought the next week theyd fit again). Much happiness for what can be done and what we will achieve.

    I am up 2lbs. But I think that it's a fluke. Or it could have been all the water I drank over the very hot sunny weekend we had. Will keep working at it. No stopping me.

    Well, I'm "down" 7 pounds, but not sure how accurate. Just starting so could be since it's common to lose a lot right off (especially those of us that have a significant amount to lose). Also, original weigh-in was probably not the best time of month to weigh (you know what I'm talking about ladies!). And finally, we are out of state and I'm on a different scale. I did check the accuracy of both mine and theirs so it might not make a difference but just logging in case I see a jump next week! However, -7 is motivating as hell and maybe I'll get a more accurate picture when I get home. Or just never know because it's so motivating that I'll have just lost so much over the next few weeks (won't be home until 2nd week of July) I just won't know!

    Gained 1 punds this week. Which I am ok with since this was the Twin Cities Pride weekend, which meant lots of drinking and bar food. But we are back on track today.
