    1 lb lost this week. I am okay with that considering the great number I pulled last week. Maggie I am sure you are going to get a good number soon. All that exercise will start to show really soon. Have you been taking your measurments? Although you are not seeing it on the scale your measurments are probably going down. Back over the summer I was frozen at 182 for almost 2 months. Yet somehow I mananged to go from a tight 14 to a comfortable 12 in those 2 months. I am sure it was all the exercise I was doing.

    Hi Guys so even with my TOM, I managed to loose 1 pound this week, maybe I lost more but I am soo bloated right now. I agree with what Rdy2Lose128 said Maggie, try to take measurements, I am sure you proabably lost inches. I try to take my measurements once a month to see the difference that way as well. Hope everyone has a great day and I'll talk to all of you soon.

    Hi All!

    Love the measurement idea. It is a great idea, especially when you are not getting that gratification from the scales.

    I lost 4 this week. I am happy, but for some reason questioning it. weighed myself 3 times. Is anyone like this...sees good results but on some level doesn't believe them ...so ,basically 'sabbotaging' their hard work??? Hoping someone says yes{!!} If not then I sound like a freak, but if someone feels /does this.....what the heck is that??!!!

    Well ... I lifted something wrong at work today, on top of everything else that was going on ... So no Zumba for me tonight ... ouch! I really did work up a sweat today in the Print Shop so I don't feel any guilt ... but Zumba would have been way fun. Oh well, I'll take it as my higher power's way of telling me to take a rest.

    So in my town we have a community center with a gym thats free for everyone to use in our town and we pay for it in our taxes, so I don't know why I did'nt think of it before, but I am going to start going there with my hubby 3 days a week and work out. Hopefully I will loose weight quicker that way and the best part, its FREE:bigsmile:

    Oh, I lost another pound from yesturday so I am at my lowest right now at 135. Hope you have a better day today Maggie. Sometimes things don't go your way, happens to me all the time. Thank goodness its friday.

    Hi there my friends. Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I seriously have some kind of bad karma going on around me ... it's almost comical ... machines breaking down at work, dropping things, car breaking down, home computer breaking down, throwing out my back, fighting with the cell phone company, going to a computer place that was highly recommended and finding it went out of business, waitress getting my order wrong and blaming me, TOM coming almost a week early ... and it goes on and on. Needless to say ... I have my computer up and running for the moment so I thought I would jump in and post ... but who knows how long that will last. LOL

    The stars will change soon I'm sure and things will start going right. I'm going back to the gym today after missing about 5 days with my sore back. I have an appointment with my trainer to do a 1/2 hour boxing thing so that should burn some major calories. I look forward to the opportunity to punch her ... LOL Anyway I just wanted to touch base and read your posts because you all inspire me. Have an awesome day.

    Hi All,
    Not sure how this happened, feeling a bit ashamed..
    Gained 7 pounds this week.
    Clothes feel better on me,my boobs aren't falling out of my bra and the waistband of my pants is not gouging me...Do not know how this happened. thought I had a good week..
    But i gotta swallow it I guess

    Next time i want to question losing 4 pounds in a week, please remind me of this humbling experience.
