    Down 2 lbs! I am happy but sad at the same time. Being down 2 lbs only means I am back to my STARTING weight this month, which means I haven't lost any weight for the whole month! Argh!

    At the same time, I didn't gain any. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, I gained and kept on 10 lbs last year. At least I know I won't do the same this year!

    We are all doing just fine, slow and steady and learning the right things to turn our lives around to the healthy US!

    Great job so far gals, keep it up! Its a long road but the end result is so worth all the set backs from time to time. :)

    Hi Ladies. Great job on the weight loss this week. I am a bit confused. I ate well pretty much all week, but the scale says I gained 2.5 lbs. I am having a very hard time believing it. I am going to give it a few days and will weigh in again. I did fly home last night (getting in around 1:30 am), and I noticed my hands were pretty swollen. I didn't drink much water as we were running around the whole weekend, trying to get as many visits with friends in as possible. Hopefully that is the cause of the 2.5 lb gain!!!

    I am really shooting to be under 200 by next Monday. If the gain is real, then it will be pretty tough...but I think I can do it.

    well I need the extra strength to get through the days now, we got our first real snow and we have another storm coming with another 6-10 inches of snow. I guess I can say thats excerise everytime I go out and scoop it. I so hate snow! People are crazy drivers and I just want to stay home and be curled up on the couch EATING! Oh so not good! Keep the strength to get myself to the gym this week!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi all, sounds like everyone had a good week. Unfortunatley, I was not able to weigh in, I completely forgot to weigh in before I went to the gym this morning :grumble:

    Tahmed, give it some time, like you said. As you already know, your body does fluctuate and go through changes, which is probably what's happenning now, plus it sounds like you've been retaining some water as well. Just drink more water the next few days and hold off on the salt, and maybe that will help :smile:

    I've been sick the past few days, so today was my first good workout. I did a 45 min. spinning class this morning, some abs and then ran about 3 miles. I took it easy on the running since I already did spinning and becauseI"m still a wee bit sick, but I'm giong to kick it into high gear later this week nad burn some calories! :glasses:

    Well I'm in a winter storm warning til tomorrow! I scooped snow this morning and I wore my HRM just for giggles and man I burned over 200 calories in an hour. You know I just never thought about scooping snow as exercise but after the next couple days I think I will be changing my mind on that. I'm not sure how much we have already but its enough and this storm is suppose to dump another 6-10 inches. I will be burning lots of calories this week. Maybe this will help on sat with weigh in.......Lets hope!

    I'm thinking lots of soups and stews too! and of course HOT CHOCOLATE! YUMMY

    I am begining to think it is just you and I left! Maybe we should start a new group, and open it up to more people? Any thoughts? I am not trying to ruin this one, we just need more people!
