I'm blown for tomorrow's weigh-in. DH is giving me an unexpected night off. Which means I'm staying in the big city where I work. I will do some shopping and then gorge myself with Indian food--NAANNNNNN!!!!!!!
We don't have Indian cuisine in the town where I live and I don't often make it at home because DD doesn't like it. This is a very special treat.
187.0- :eek:
Starting Weight Watchers at work on Tuesday (luckily.) I lost 34 pounds about 9 years ago, so I know it works, as long as you stick with it!
123. I think it is water weight loss....:confused:
Missed last week's weigh in due to out of town trip for family celebration.
Although I DID run 3 days... teh amount and type of food was --well not good. And let's not talk about the wine consumption! But teh trip was fun.
1st day post vacation/trip was up to 126 (OMG!:eek:).
Today after a couple of sucessful eating days I am back to 123.2
Still not really moving in the right direction...but I need to stay very serious! I have about 2 weeks til "real" vacation. Although it is a bike vacation--you know how the eating is on these! Wish me luck! (or is that will power and dedication!)

197.2--back in the right direction :)
126 and holding. I wasn't trying too hard, but I guess it was an OK week!
147.4, finally going in the right direction!
129.2 today-- not too bad considering how all the rain here this week has kept me inside...
142 for me. Limewave, it looks like you got to enjoy your night on the town and a weight loss - way to go!:)
Thanks!Quote:

130.6 - I think it's the same as last week.... despite staying in my basic points on weightwatchers and riding about 90 miles since Friday.

171.8 slow and steady.
242.6
just got a new iPhone with Lose It to help me track calories and exercise. Happy birthday to me!
150, trying so hard too
Still 134. No movement, yet again. I guess this is a good thing because my cycling mileage is down lately. And last weekend I made an apple pie and had two pieces during the week. It was yummy, but I certainly didn't need the extra calories.
Will weigh in again in two weeks.
Woo hoo!!! Down to 150! :D
I'm on a roll :cool:
The century prep is paying off not to mention my morning swims. This feels really good.
170.8
Considering that I was up over 174 earlier this week, I'm ok with this for now. Next week it will be less!
Up a bit this week to 215.2. Not a good start to the challenge, but not surprising. I've spent the week knocked out by a nasty cold which is finally on retreat so I have high hopes for next week.
I am 141 lbs. I forgot to weigh until this morning. Thanks again for maintaining the charts.

Sorry I am a little late. Life has been pretty crazy lately. I have not done very much exercise lately due to some unexpected high BP with a lot of dizziness. Bummer. Well I am at 153. Still striving for 145:)
Updating for this week - 151.4 - just got weighed at the gym.
Finding out how many calories there are in some of my favorite foods is such a bummer.... I need new favorite foods!
I am keeping track of my intake on livestrong.com (daily plate) - I need to keep track of every morsel for the next time I meet my nutritionist - that is my homework.
Since this is the weight loss thread, I'd love to share today's discovery 8')
Since January 7th of 2009 (not steadily I should say, but still)
I've lost
4" off my waist
1" off my upper arm
3.5" off my hips
3" off my chest (for some reason I am happy about this
1" off my thigh
And 11 lbs (although I've gained a lot of muscle too!)
Proof is in the fit of my clothes :D
Nice work Reesha.
65.4kg this week. Given the lack of exercise and abundance of snacks over the last few days, I'll take that happily.
I ended up at 241.6 this week. I worked out once in the gym last tues and then did my long ride on saturday. I made it my first metric centry + a few miles on saturday. I road a total of 68 miles so have not been so worried about calories. Tina
Just back from vacation and @ 164. After 11 days away I'm up 1.8 lbs but I'm be back to eating more normally as of today, Monday.
Oh my, I'm not doing well at all! :eek:
138

I am REALLY afraid of the scale this week.
So I was UP after my family trip. Then down...water weight prob w/ a few days good eating. Now up again. I have been "pretty good" I have CUT OUT my evening wine (OMG!:eek:). We did 2 40 miles rides this weekend. So Sunday night I DID have wine.
So here it is...I am up on my weight AND EVERYTHING feels TIGHT EVERYWHERE. So maybe it is PMS and a little hormonal shift of the fluid...HOPEFULLY! We shall see soon!
UGH!!! :mad:Maybe next time I'll set a goal to GAIN weight. (Sorry, very frustrated this AM. Wonder why I even try!):(
More updates - and chuckling at the idea of setting a goal to gain. Hey, at least I'd feel I'd accomplished a goal, I can see the incentive. :)

Reesha - Wow, those are great measurement improvements!! It just goes to show that the scale number is not the important figure. You've clearly made big improvements without a lot of change in your actual weight. I can "hear" the excitement in your words!!
I'm just back from my trip. 3 days in Las Vegas for a cycling convention (I tried very hard to eat healthily. I did go astray on the alcohol front one evening at an indutry party, though...:o ) Then we went to the Grand Canyon for 3 days. We camped, and brought along most of our food, so I didn't go too far astray there, though I did indulge in a yummy ice cream bar after an 8 mile hike with 2500+ feet of elevation gain.
I expected to be up because, despite my efforts, I spent way too much time in restaurants (especially in Vegas) and airports to really be able to control my meals properly. But this morning I got on the scale and the news was good. :) I'll report in "officially" on Friday as usual.
It's REALLY good to be home. I like travelling, but I don't like stressing over my meals. It's so comforting to make myself a simple bowl of 7 grain cereal and half a grapefruit for breakfast. Is it weird to think that way??
I am posting my weight today. Not that is good, but it is better than the last couple of days AND tonight we have a going away party. I suspect I'll make some not so good food choices and have a few adult beverages. (slap my hand now).
123.6
About the same? At least I got out of those 125-6's! UGH!
Thanks for keeping the chart up to date!
Boo. 148.8. Boo, boo, boo. Well, I haven't been taking my body measurements but I can tell that I've definitely slimmed some in a few areas. My husband says my legs are toning up quite a bit. So maybe I'm gaining muscle at the same rate I'm losing fat?????
Oh well... I'm making drastic improvements on the bike (finally able to conquer itty bitty hills without slowing down and going granny). And I can tell my endurance is getting better too.
I got through the mini-plateau :D 129.0 this morning. That's 8 1/2 since July, and 21 since January. Starting cycling got me off the long plateau in May and June.
240.2 this morning (although the last few days have been at 239.2)
Goal for this challenge: 235
Thanks, Possegal!

197.
Lots of dinners out this week (the problem with living so close to parents and inlaws--they want to do "dinner" all the time). Period this week. And cold.
:(
170.8. I really want to drop into the next decade.
171.0 Going the wrong way! :(
I got a new tool yesterday and I'm on a new 'mission'...so here's to reversing this trend going forward! :)
129.4 today for me. There's been a lot of chocolate in my life this past week... and apple pie too

126.5 for me today. I've only seen this number on the scale one other time in the past 5 months (during which I've basically bounced between 127 & 130), so this is makes me happy. I'm going to Cabo in 3 weeks, and just got a new bikini - my first since I was 9 years old! :)
156lbs today... many things went wrong in the past 2 weeks, so I actually consider the number success even though it is not the right direction :)
