Checking in for yesterday's weight @ 201

8/29 weigh in 203....a gain! :( Determined to better this week,,,holiday weekend or not! Not sure if I will be able to post weight next Monday or not, we will be driving home from mini-vacation. If not I will post first thing Tues. morning.

My 8/15/11 weigh-in is 199.2

I weigh pretty much every day, I just don't log it but once a week. I will send you my weigh-in on Mondays, more motivation to be good over the weekend! :) Do you want us to post weigh-ins here or send to you in a message?

WATER!!!!

I want to join too! I usually weigh-in on Fridays. Do you want my weight for this challenge as of tomorrow or do you want us all to log our weights this Monday - the 15th and let that be our starting points? CW - 203.2 (as of 8/5/11) GW - 165 (by 12/23/11) - End of Christmas Challenge

Calories in and calories out. My nutritionist said that woment she eat a minimum of 1200 calories a day, no matter what size you are. That is the lowest you should consume so that your body doesn't go into starvation mode. Have you been exercising? Do you eat healthy foods for your calories or junk?

You are only allowed to eat certain things...very strict diet. Look it up online or in yahoo groups and they can give you lots of info. I did it for a couple of weeks. It was tough. I had to plan and prepare my food on Sunday, to be ready for the week. I did lose about 20 lbs. But you absolutely cannot cheat! Or you will…

Good for you! Stick with it and you will succeed!

Wow, that is alot. Hope that you are feeling better and not down on yourself. All of those things were beyond your control, but I'm sure they took their toll on you. Glad to hear that you are back here and focusing on you and your goals! You can do this!

You can definitely see the difference, keep up the great work! Way to go!

You've got some awesome momentum going, wish I could get that motivation and stick with it! I joined the gym and have finally been losing some. You are an inspiration, so proud of you!

Count me in! Just what I need! I am trying to get back to a previous low weight (before marriage and a baby). And we have a fancy wedding to go to on my husband's birthday in 12 weeks. Hopefully, this 10 week challenge will help me get back to where I want to be.

Congratulations! I am hoping to be back there very soon! Weighed in at 204 this morning.

I don't have any answers for you. I am in the same situation. My husband says that he wants to be on this journey with me and he will give a half *kitten* attempt at it and then quit. Or if we go out to eat somewhere he is unable to make a smart decision, he has the mindset that he is eating out and will order what he…

I have no idea! But yes it is hot! I walked in 100 degree weather yesterday and thought I was going to die! LOL

Yes, the all black is more flattering. Have fun at the wedding!

I used to go to the gym religiously at 5 am or go to the park and walk after work. I now have a 10 yr old, 8 yr old and a 10 month old. Since having my daughter I just can't find the time or I feel quilty not coming straight home from work. I get up at 5 as it is to get myself and 3 kids ready for the day and I work until…

You people who hate excuses not to exercise, do you have children?

Thanks! I agree and that is just what I need to do!

Awesome job! Keep up the great work!:smile:

If you are doing the HCG diet, I heard the magnesium is supposed to help. I am thinking about getting some for myself.

I just weaned my 8 month old so I just started the HCG diet to lose this baby weight. I need to lose 64 pounds to be back to where I was when my husband and I got married almost 2 years ago. In the past I had lost 130 lbs. and promised that I wouldn't go crazy and gain a ton of weight while I was pregnant with this one,…

I top mine with some turkey chili, onions and cheese, like a chili spaghetti.
