anthrochix

Helloses- loss of a WHOLE 0.4 pounds this week. whatever. I'm at 192, which is a total loss of 15 so far which leaves 44 still left to go. Feels like trying to empty the ocean with a teaspoon somedimes, doesn't it?

Good morning folks! I'm feeling pretty good - my friend who I ride the train with every morning commented that my butt is shrinking! woohoo! Also, last night I was DYING for sweets. In Miami, the Cuban restaurant right by my house makes fantastic churros (basically fried dough rolled in sugar - om nom nom) Instead, I went…

Helloses - weigh in time :) 192.4 (up 0.8 lbs) but I consider this a major WIN because, for the last 2 weeks, my roitine has totally been out of whack. My birthday was on Halloween, so I had to resist all of the sweets that bombarded me (but I did have some b-day cake :wink: ). Then I had houseguests for the following week…

maglett - I like the artwork! cute!

Hello all - I'm not dead, but I am kind of proud of myself! I have maintained steadily for 2 weeks where I normally would have flopped off the wagon for 2 weeks. My birthday was Halloween, so there were LOTS of sweets around, I worked last weekend at an extra job and all that was available was junk food, AND I've been…

maglett - way to go, eh? (Sorry - couldn'r resist):blushing: I'm up 2 lbs this week from water retention. I'm like the Hoover Dam at the moment. Hope it goes away by friday or i've got 9 to go for american turkey day!

Hi guys - Sorry for being AWOL for a while. I've been posting on the fatclothessuck blog. As far as goals for this thread/group...does anyone have any ideas? Thanksgiving (USA) is in 5 weeks. Do you think we can do a 7 pound goal by then? Any ideas are appreciated - and it looks like everyone is staying steady for the most…

it's friday photo weigh in time on bossymommy's blog. Here's the link http://fatclothessuck.blogspot.com/ Good jobs so far - I just read the last few posts quickly and only saw losses. Yay everybody!

Hi guys! I've been real busy at work and I've got no interwebs at the house. I know it's not weigh-in yet but I want to post while I still have some good numbers - I know that this is all water weight and that it is going to go slow from here on out. Here goes: start weight 207 (CW) 200 lost 7 lbs, 52 to go.

Howdy everyone!! I've gotten an invitation from "bossymommy" (Jacey) through my posts and she has graciously offered to be blogmaster of a weekly accountability group like ours. The blog will be separate from the MFP forums and, I think it might be a fun way to encourage one another. It would involve weekly (Friday)…

Uh, I'm Irish but born in Miami. Good luck to you!

dagnabbit! it messed up! grrrr!

Dang! I think we might have started something, ladies! I think the best way to keep this thread updated is to copy/paste the info and everyone can update at first weigh in. I'll start: Anthrochix (Shannan) Start weight 207 1/2 left to goal 59 1/2

Wow! Responses! Prettylyzard, we are definitely in the same boat! And Frecklelip, congrats on the 5 so far. Looks like you are leading our little pack! Does Monday work for you guys as weigh in day?

pmaria10 - Multnomah falls is beautiful! I <3 Oregon. hey guys, here's my info. no change this week, but at least no gain....

Hon, I'm sorry you're feeling discouraged. Last year I had a 2 1/2 month-long plateau where I didn't loose a thing and even gained a bit. Just keep plugging away and being good to yourself and eventually you will see some numbers. Remember, you ALREADY know what will happen if you throw in the towel. I'm rooting for…

Hi peeps. Here's mine.....

I have a hard time fitting it into my schedule plus when I get…

I'm only 36 and have "borderline" levels, so am not getting treatment. I'm interested to see any responses as well. Any such thing as a thyroid "diet"? Any supplements that help? Thanks for posting.:happy:

yay! weigh in day is here and I am the first one to be up with the chickens. Boo! I only had a drop of 0.4. That means now that my mini goal looks unrealistic. oh poo. Hope everyone else has better numbers!:tongue: Heaviest Weight 207 02/24 start weight 194.4 03/03 194.0 -0.4 03/10 (mini Goal: 190)

good for you! cute kitty on your ticker, too. I wish you the best. Maybe you can teach her a little about healthy cooking by being an example?

amazing! you look like a totally different person! Good for you!

Hi everyone - I'd like in! My name is Shannan and I'm 36, married for 11 years, no kids. I work as a lab manager for the dental hygiene department of a college here in Miami (I'm also a hygienist, but don't work in private practice). I was on mfp last year and managed to take off 25 pounds, but 12 have crept back on since…

Just a question for our Canadian Christmas pals: what is and how do you celebrate your thanksgiving day? To be honest, I thought is was strictly a U.S. thing.

francis, way to go, girl! you are KILLING this thing! woot woot!
