Finally weiging in (I'm away for the weekend)
Been avoiding my scales as I didn't want to see the damage :(
Plucked up some courage and its not as bad as I thought -148
I seem to be on a bit of a yo-yo of late.....
I am 139.6 this morning - the wrong direction. I have found that if I eat whatever I want to/feel like it works out to about 2500 calories a day - 300-400 more calories a day than I burn, even with cycling. In October, my goal will be to average less than 2000 calories a day. I really need to get my stress eating under control.
I am 116 this morning. The same as two weeks ago but less than last week. I don't know yet if I have broken my plateau.
Weight loss plateau's effect just about every one losing weight at the 6 to 9 month point. Here I am right on schedule in the ninth month. It is a risky time because the weight loss rewards are just not there.
152. It's going to be a miracle if I make my goal this challenge. Ah well, my clothes are fitting great!
231.4 this morning.
4 pounds down, total (for this challenge, anyway).
Almost half way to my goal!
Great job, Ellen! Are you still running? Wanna do a 5k together this winter? :)
I don't have a scale available to me (I'm traveling for work) but my last weigh in was on Tuesday at 147.3, so lets use that for this week. I'll be doing a Wednesday weigh in next week as well (traveling again), so this may be a trend for me! :p
224 for me this week! Would have been better, but had some dental work that knocked me out of exercise for a bit.
I didn't check in last week because I went on a long weekend trip to run a 10K race in Banff, AB. I weighed in when I returned to find that I had gained 8 pounds :eek: over the course of 3 days. I know the sodium in the camping food I was eating contributed, but I still thought that was a scary amount. I will definitely be modifying my typical camping food for my next trip (as much as I can, since we tend to backcountry more often that not).
Diet was okay this week, but not perfect, and I weighed 142 this morning. I need to get my eating figured out if I am going to lose any weight this challenge.
228.8
One and a half weeks of complete compliance on South Beach, up to yesterday, and I gained two pounds from last week. Hmm.
My doctor took me off my blood pressure meds because my bp dropped too low - 87/52 - after the first six days on South Beach and lots of varied exercise (swimming, step class, yoga, bike ride, Zumba).
The bp meds are also a diuretic, so I'm guessing the added weight is probably just water.
I'm going for a bike ride today. I'm hoping it settles out over the next week. These headaches and crying fits are wearing me out. Yesterday was nearly completely wiped out by non-stop crying...how do I shut these demons off?
I ate a peanut butter sandwich on low glycemic sprouted grain bread, with honey apple butter instead of jelly. It made me feel more even. That's all I've "cheated" this last week and a half.
The SB people say you should lose 7 - 13 pounds in the first two weeks. We'll see.

So far so good. My first week's weight in at WW was 161.2
That's key for me. Numbers are all well & good, but what really matters to me is how my pants are fitting. And I don't like them to be snug. :pQuote:
