Sunday Weigh In

[Barb135]

We've made it through yet another week and it's time to talk about your weight loss journey over the past week.

As most of you know, for some reason, I was going steadily up for the past few weeks.  All of a sudden about mid week, my weight took a nose dive and I went down by 3 lbs from our last weigh in.  I think this could be attributed to the stress I have been under this past week, and not eating regularly, although when I ate, I was eating well.

While I *was* happy to see the scale going down, I did not want it go down in an unhealthy manner.  As it turns out, I've ended up being down 1.5 lbs.  I'm okay with that.

Now, how about you?  Are you getting close to where you want to be?  I still have a long way to go, but am hoping I can at least, keep the scale moving in the right direction.  

Your turn.

just stopping by! Congrats to those that lost! Im still going to the gym 5 days a week but i havent posted cus i havent been losing! I have lost inches and the change is big in my pics but the scales are just not budging! IDK if its my eating im struggling with or if its cus i have toned up alot! Every1 keeps saying not to worry since i have lost inches but i would still like to be 10 lbs lighter than i am now!

oh I'm up 2lbs again. Thought I was doing well on the whole but I did have a few treats along the way and I guess I've blown it.

will try harder next week.

:(

well done Barb, Trudie, Elaine, SunnyMom and Whatawoman. You are all my inspiration, despite so many difficulties you are doing so brilliantly.

Sasha - well done on drinking that water instead of fizzy stuff - that will make a difference!

Tigerlily you sound like your doing fine, holding pretty steady there. what you've achieved is so impressive.

good luck for next week everyone.

I am very happy to report that I am down 2 lbs this week! It helps having a fellow co-worker & I remind each other to drink our water. Also eating healthy is becoming the norm around this house and no longer causing the moans and groans it was earlier in the year when we started this! So, all in all good positive things this week.

Sorry to hear about the stress Barb, hopefully things ease up soon for you.
Tigerlilly, being up .2 during your period is not bad at all! You are doing great!
Awesome Trudie! Congrats on the job and the weight-loss!
Elaine, great job on the weight loss and sure hope the tests go well for you.
Wow, Whatawoman! Great control with the junk food especially in a stressful situation.
Sasha, up .4 with having pizza 2x is very good!

We promised the kids ice-cream for dessert tonight.... I plan to enjoy some too and then go for a long walk! :D

I am up .4lbs.  having pizza two nights in a row didn't help... but I did drink water instead of pop with the pizza which I am proud of.

I am very happy -  down 2.8lbs.... finally back on track and in control... had 11 hours at the hospital yesterday with my son and didnt touch one thing of junk food...no chocolate fests like usual if we are hospital bound.. no ice creams either -  so I am well proud of myself.

[TrudieC]

I've had a good week.  Got my dream job, no issues around leaving my current employer, and am down 2.6 lbs!  I hope I will never see the 200 lb. mark again!  Glad to hear others did well and am sorry that you lost weight due to stress Barb.  I wish I could lose when stressed, it usually goes the other way for me.

I havent been able to do any cardio exercise for over a week, as i am awaiting some heart test,

Well done Barb, you should be pleased with that after all you have been through

I'm up 0.2 from last week but I'm feeling good about keeping it under control. I'm 125.8, 0.8 away from my goal. My period is almost over and I think this has helped. As usual I would like to try and maintain with out a large jump from a "day off" on my hubby's off work days. This is what I'm going to try and focus on this week. I always look at it as "never overeat again" but maybe if I just try it for this week I can have a "day off" next week if  I choose. I'm working on it anyway. lol

Barb135 - Good losing 1.5. That is a great number to lose over a weeks time.
