Didn't weigh in last week. We were at a wedding from Friday early AM to Sunday. DD was the flower girl :) And with the tree taking out our power early last week and being displaced from our home, I've been eating a lot of junk! Hopefully didn't do too much damage to the progress I made.
Back on track this week!
pssst, Possegal...I think you missed me.
234.2 last Friday
This morning, though, 231.6
:)

Weird, I am sure I put it in there. Though sometimes I think I maneuver away from the site while still on that square and I think you then lose the change. Well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. :)
I put in your Friday weight, unless you want the today one. Though both of them are outstanding - congrats!!

Trying to become one with my Sirrus.
(I swear the poor thing groaned this morning, but rolled faithfully onward.)
Sorry I have been out of commission lately. Thankfully not the seasonal or swine flu which has decimated our school population (I teach). I have been holding at 140 lbs. I did see an endocrinologist about my diabetes and we have agreed on 135 or less as optimum weight. So, I guess I'll try to reach this point.
Thanks for always putting together the list!

Holding steady at 148.6. I have noticed some significant body changes this week though. I didn't do before measurements when I started working out but I've definitely lost inches around my hips/waist. I'll have to try on some pants that used to be really tight on me when I get home and see how they fit :).
So, no weight movement, but definitely have firmed up all over and added muscle so I'm happy.
232.2 today - this weekly recording really helps me see the weight pattern fluctuations, the ebbs and flows of it. I can see the results of going off my blood pressure meds - a nearly-ten pound gain in a week - and the results of getting back on them - a six pound drop almost immediately, and now I'm back to the gradual decline that is healthier, no doubt, for my heart. I'd really like to get off the meds eventually. I thought I'd reached that point, but when the full weaning happened, my blood pressure started creeping back up and the weight came right back on. I don't understand the biomechanics of that. It's water weight, I know. The night I went back on the full dosage I literally lost four pounds (I was up and down all night going to the bathroom). It's been more gradual since then, thank goodness, but still effective.
Woohoo!

Good morning everyone.
My weight today: 127.4 - only 1.4 away from my mini-goal. I am very happy to be using a digital scale with increments of .2 pounds for weeks when there is more variation. Lately though, it's been a slow and steady "down". (There was a big ice cream cone during the ride yesterday, but it's been accounted for.
I weigh in for weightwatchers on Monday and again for this challenge on Friday. It really has been keeping me focused but also makes me a little obsessive twice a week instead of just once. The bigger challenge will be maintaining my loss when time constraints and/or weather cut back on my ability to keep up my current level of activity.
Thanks to you all for sharing this and I hope everyone has a successful week.
moving in the right direction: 129.0 today.
somewhat off-topic, I took my cats into the vet this week for their checkup, and both my older cats have lost weight and are now lean, mean purring machines. Getting them a kitten really upped their activity levels-- and increased the competition at the food bowl too! So I've got a leaner, fitter household all around...
195.2 hmmm . . .
Not sure this is completely accurate. I know I ate a lot of wedding cake, ice cream, and pizza over the last two weeks. We'll see if this holds up :)
well...I am at 153. I have been so busy at work, some days working 13 hours which does not leave a lot of time to exercise and I am just mentally drained. Hope next week will be better.
I was going to post that I didn't weigh this morning, but I did. I also am about to post in the 'what did you eat today' thread that I ate almost an entire large pizza by myself last night. My first binge in years. :o I think I was punishing myself for something but I haven't quite figured it out yet.
Anyway, I'm up today. 170.9. Two pounds exactly. And two days ago I was thinking that I was feeling slimmer and that I'd probably see a drop this week.
. . . been there. Why do we sabatoge ourselves?Quote:

I was over my daily burn by 1300 calories yesterday. That's not even a half pound's worth. Certainly not enough of a reason to 'throw in the towel' as I've done in the past. I probably erased my entire weekly deficit (it wasn't a very good week exercise-wise either), but I certainly didn't eat enough to gain real weight this week.
Ok, I feel better. Putting it past me now. Moving on...
Limewave, that's awesome. I know you've been dealing with a lot and that kind of stuff sends me straight to comfort food. Good for you! Even with the cake and pizza. <g>Quote:
