yum candy corn. if you mix some candy corn and some blanched peanuts together, tastes like a Payday, double yum
150....sigh
At this rate, I will not make my goal. On a positive note, I am losing and not going in the other direction AND the support on this page has really helped me! Why, then, am I hungry ALL of the time?

Effects of diuretic are over but still losing--even slowly but at least still going downward.
140 Whoohoo! At this time next week, I should be back down below my "highest acceptable weight" which is 139.
I started the week having gained two pounds doing the MS 150, and I was really careful about not overfueling, so that was discouraging. My theory, not supported by any scientific backing, is that when you do hours more exercise than your body is used to, it says "EEK, We are obviously being chased by predators! Conserve calories and fluids for extra energy later!" Kind of like when people go on crash diets and their bodies think it is famine time. Anyway, that is my theory.
I was careful this week, didn't do any crazy dieting and didn't do a lot of exercise, but still am down 3 pounds since Monday, so it obviously wasn't real fat weight, must have been fluids. I would not have been as motivated to get it off if I didn't know I was weighing in this morning.
Hello Ladies,
Well, I am right on track - 140.2 this morning! :)
Everything is just clicking right now - I hope I can continue this trend and get this weight off once and for all!!
BTW - the chart looks great - Thanks GLC!

137.0 this week. I was very happy to see this on the scale this morning! Thought for sure I would have gained this week, it's been very stressfull and I've eaten like cr#p.
Our dog went lame late Monday night and I've been home from work since then. He's getting better, but I'm not sure how much better he can get. He's on Prednisone, which he's been on before, and he's up and walking again. He's only 6 1/2 yrs old and was diagnosed with stenosis and 2 cycsts all at C1 & C2 when he was 23 months old. OK enough of that, sorry for the hijack.
173.2 today.
Even though I am up a bit, I'll take it considering I ate junk a lot this past week- including candy corn!
141.8, less than a pound but I'll take it.
And I'm going to the store today, I'm sure a bag of candy corn will be included. And eaten in moderation :p ( I hope!)
Today 180 -- up a little, but that's to be expected with a badly sprained ankle :(
I have set a new goal for myself this edition of WLC. It is to maintain my current weight or gain no more than 2 lbs.
Because . . .
I'm PREGNANT :D:D:D:D:D
Due date: May 27, 2009
CONGRATULATIONS limewave!!!! :)
Oh Wow! That's great Limewave!
As for myself... I forgot to weigh myself this morning, so I will post my weight tomorrow.
Congrats Limewave!!!
As for me....no excuse to gain or maintain. And the good news is I did neither but LOST!
119 for me. Trying to get back down where I was w/ LAST challenge!
And did someone mention candy corn?? OMG:eek: It can't be time for that again:eek:EEK:eek:
Last week, I didn't weigh until after the MS Ride. I was up to 232 - I'm guessing it was water weight, as this morning, I was at 224!! Yay!!!! Here's hoping it stays that low!
Congratulations, Limewave!

229 this morning for me.
Congrats, Limewave. :)
More congratulations, Limewave.
For me, it is 140.8 this morning. Up a little this week, but hopefully it is fluid weight as my legs are sore from some fast than usual paced rides this week with hubby.
Congrats Limewave! A memorial day baby, woohoo birthday on a long weekend. :D
Wow!!! Congrats Limewave! So exciting! :D:D:D
9/19/08: 134 lbs and my TOTM which means I'm really doing well because usually I bloat up like a puffer fish!
I am making a real effort to cut out quick foods that are most likely the cause of my weight gains and I think it's working! I am also trying to travel with snacks if I get the urge to grab something on the go. I am now keeping carrots, almonds and rice cakes with me when I'm in the car (I'm a commuter) or on the run so if I get hungry I can fend it off until I get home.
117.5 glad i lost one more but it was hard because i'm injured again so it was all about food intake. i tried swim class yesterday and it may have been too much on my knee. Why did i run on the sidewalk on fri?! Stick to trails! i guess my quads/glutes still aren't strong enough (have back & hip issues) so i have the same patello femoral pain syndrome/bursitis that i had last year. very very bummed. :( Hiking may be out when we go to utah & vegas next week. I'm icing and taking lots of ibuprofen. Walking/standing without pain would be nice.
Congrats Limewave! and sorry to hear about your pup Kerrybelle. i hope he feels better.
I LOVE BOOT CAMP!!!! So I had to get weighed, measured, and pinched on my lunch. I've gained 2 lbs, BUT...... I've lost an inch on my thighs, and lost 2% body fat in TWO WEEKS!!!!
Limewave - that is great news!
And your daughter in your AVATAR is beautiful too. :)
Congratulations!

65.1kg's dis weigh in..
Alright, this week's weigh in: 125.6 I'm up by a lousy .2!!!!
BUT...I have to say last Saturday I allowed myself a splurge, thinking one splurge isn't bad now and then, right? THEN on Sunday we had a church picnic to go to. Usually there is salad at these things....but NO, this time all they had were hot dogs, chips, and cookies! So, by Monday I was up to 127!!!! I spent the rest of the week trying to work it off. So I guess I'm pleased that most of that is gone and will resume trying to drop below that this week. Where is the justice in the world that 1 1/2 bad days = a WEEK of trying to work that off!
I also learned that watching the Food Network's one hour special on desserts is NOT the best way to stave off cravings. My husband dutifully talked me down from the edge last night when I wanted to make sticky buns for dessert (What?! They have baked bananas on top - they're practically health food!) So I had 100 calorie kettlecorn instead.
134.2. Up, but within my water weight yoyo-ing range. One of these days I'll break out of this place where I'm stuck. I hope.
187
Congrats limewave!
Didn't bike at all per PT's demands...grrrrr...I am learning to accept icing as a way of life. And no, not icing on cupcakes but ice on my tendon. Speaking of cupcakes...I'm gonna make some today...and not eat more than one before I pawn them off on my bf's kids!
I missed "the official" gym scale comparison on Friday, but my home scale is about the same. So, I say record 124# for me this time.
Congratulations, LIMEWAVE! Yippee!
As for me -- no baby excuses here. The BC 3-day and then injury that has held on all week has kept me from exercising much (except, of course, for my pushups!). Finally got a short cardio session on the trainer this am.
My weight is up to 169.2 THAT IS THE LIMIT.
Time to hit it, even if that means the pool, yoga and trainer till I'm better! Oh, and a little thing called - DON'T EAT SO MUCH CHOCOLATE! If only people would quit bringing it into the office! I need to muzzle myself, I guess!:rolleyes:
Here's to a downward movement next week!
222 (up 2). Actually got to do some riding this weekend, so I'm hoping that will help counteract that gain.
Holding at 115. Lots of walking,jogging,and biking but not budging. Oh well. I probably need to look at what Im eating since when DH and I ride we seem to ride to eat and on the way back we get ice cream.
This week looks like 169
Hmmmm... I seem to be steady but that isn't what I want! 159.5 this week.
174.2. Ok, really? I'm losing at a rate of 0.2 lbs a week? At this speed, it will take me 4-5 yrs to get where I need to. :) I shouldn't complain, I've been lax at everything I need to be doing. But I am having to laugh at the 0.2 lbs. :)
- will skip that one (one missing observation cannot hurt :) ) and will post this Friday.
Thank you for the chart,
Martina
I'm up this week. Damn candy corn! (just kidding - it's not the candy corn - it's everything else I keep stuffing in my mouth!)
Sorry for the delay in posting this!

I weighed in but didn't get it posted. Rough week but life goes on. 165.2 which is good!
Lora
back to 148 again. blech! melissa
I am NOT ready to weigh in tomorrow. Overall I have done all my workouts. But my eating and drinking (I admit I am wino) is not been well controlled. Having a bad week and definitely into the "don't give a crap about eating healthy" mode.
So we shall see. Good luck to all!
