Hooray for Thursday weigh-in day! :drinker: I get an extra ego boost since Monday is my regular weigh in day. But hey, I will chart the 1.9 lb. loss. :love: I know its a bit inflated since my Monday weight is always a little high. This number puts me almost inside my maintenance range (132-135)! It's been a long time baby!…

Did you stay within your nutritional goals? - yep Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Did it all! :happy: What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Got to bed ALMOST on time What would I have done differently? Gotten my walk/run in earlier. What is today's personal goals? Stay under on calories and get a walk or…

Wow! That is an amazing loss! Your program sounds great. I am sure you will pick up some great ideas here. Today I lifted weights first thing this morning and went for a walk/run later. Just could not waste such a beautiful day! My run is up to over 2 - 1 mile segments with a walk to start , end and in between. I might…

Definitely so much to be proud of!! You will keep seeing those results and more I'm sure!

Did you stay within your nutritional goals? - So close but under! Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Did well on most counts, still working on the bedtime. I did get up early. Hopefully helps to send me back earlier! What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Took my walk besides the elliptical What would I have done…

I usually wait until January. When I can use the extra coat!

Yaaay! :flowerforyou: You are back! I totally understand the down thing... We work so hard at this but well, sometimes we just have to keep at it. Honestly, I cannot point to any one thing that got me moving after hovering around 139 to 140 since MARCH!! I had been under 135. But a few things I have done... * I got pickier…

This is an area I really need to work on! How do you know what is the optimal amount of sleep for yourself. I am pretty sure that I cannot sleep 8 hours a night!

***Do you eat back your exercise calories? Most of them ***Also, how much do you eat total and how many calories do you burn on average per day? I have my calories set to 1450 per day plus try to eat the 350+ calories I earn for exercise. If I do more work than that I do not try to eat the extra calories. This helps me…

Did you stay within your nutritional goals? - Went over :grumble: Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Almost got to bed on time... really a fail on all counts :frown: What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Stopped eating!! What would I have done differently? Took that walk, did my Bible study, and went to bed on…

SW: 160 LW:137.8 CW: 137.1 GW 132 Happy Monday all!! Here is my official weigh in.. down .6 of a pound! Slow but sure for the last few weeks. This week I was 2 days short of exercise but stuck pretty close to my calories. Another week and I will be in the 136 range! :love: Looking forward to that! I know I am lighter…

Thanks for the encouragement. I made several healthy snacks and tried to focus on them. Did a check weight this morning and it looks like I have headed down in weight - HOORAY!. I only count my Monday as official though. Another thread has a Thursday weight check-in so, :ohwell: if I must I will weigh for the cause!:wink:…

Ate a salad with tuna for dinner. - Kept me under my calorie goal. (and allowed me to have a nice glass of wine :happy: ) Which helped me to go to bed in decent time. What would I have…

THAT IS AMAZING! Do you have video? :happy: You and I are the same height. I'm pretty sure I would be found flat on my back in the door-frame after such an attempt!

Everyone is so full of great ideas! I added one more (Can we handle all of this?:wink: ) I entered the date of my most recent weight on the chart. That way I can see that I am keeping up my data weekly and we can hold each other accountable! I was weighing on Mondays but will add a Thursday weigh-in to work with this…

You can add yourself to the list (at least I did) :tongue: In this group that is within 10 pounds or so of your goal the wrist measurement should be pretty accurate I would think. And, YES! I can see you! :flowerforyou:

So many blessing my jeans over-floweth! :laugh: The first 20 came off relatively quickly and these last 10 have become part of my lifestyle! I will be back-tracking through this thread to glean great ideas for our…

Did you stay within your nutritional goals? - Diary says I was under but pretty sure I wasn't after last night's Bunco-bash. I might have been close though and that would be pretty good! :tongue: Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? I would say so What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Got 'er done and had some fun!…

:flowerforyou: Thank-you fischer! I'm up! Now to get moving!! :tongue: The clean-up after my Bunco party will help to alleviate some of the intake excess! I tried to be moderate but it is a night that focuses on food!

I love my makeup. I am very blonde, no color in eyebrows or eyelashes and the crazy thing is that I keep finding another step to add! Of course now I'm battle-ling the spots and wrinkles. It seems was only a short while ago I was covering up pimples! :noway: Night and day difference with or without make-up,but I still…

Hanging out in Chicago O'Hare. Not checking in officially but had a great lunch downtown. Probably not getting dinner. Should work out fine considering I indulged myself a bit on our Ladies-night. No weight gain this morning!. We will see what a college visit this weekend will do!
