157 this morning.
230 for me! I may have to adjust my goal for these 2 months since I'm only 2 pounds away :D
Or ASammy1 -you'll get an even more special color change for meeting your goal so fast! :)

Oooh, I like that idea Possegal! Thanks again for all you do for us.
232.2...wrong way, wrong way, wrong way.
I have only myself to blame. Poor diet choices this week, and I've been off any real exercise for three weeks since I was rear-ended at a stop light. Relatively minor as car accidents go, but it was hard enough to keep me off my bike and out of the pool for a while.
Paying for it here.

This is getting harder, though the big picture is still good. The scale has been up and down all week long- dipped below 114 earlier in the week...
but it's up some today 114.8.

I am openly not posting. I have struggled a little in the past month with being obsessive about the scale. My nutritionist told me that if I am feeling bloated (because of a period) or salt intake not to step on the scale. I am tapering for a race on sunday, and I can feel that I weigh more from increased salt and lack of running. But, I am trying to convince myself that I am supposed to, because my legs are going to use that on Sunday :p Sorry, I just had to vocalize it so that I don't feel guilty and go step on the scale. Maybe monday. Trying to keep a healthy mental attitude (and it can be really hard sometimes!!!)
Good work everyone!!!

Possegal, I'm going to ask you to take me off the spreadsheet. I've been at my WW maintenance weight for almost a year now (Yay!) but have been obsessing over getting off a few more pounds. Which means I obsess on everything I put in my mouth, and I don't think that's healthy for me at this point in my journey.
So, I've decided to put the scale away for a while, and just concentrate on my training (which is going great) and how my clothes fit (which is also great) and leave it at that.
My hope is that I've learned enough in the past 18 months that I can simply eat sensibly and make good choices.
I want to thank everyone for all the incredible encouragement you gave me when I was still actively losing. And I want you all to know what strong, beautiful, courageous women you all are.

158..........wrong way! wrong way! wrong way! Me too, Roxy!
Bad weekend at my son's last week celebrating his birthday. I'm paying for it now.
Forgot to post my weight this morning! 168.0 for me. At least it's the right direction this week even though I'd hoped for more.
Susan - gracious as always. You'll do just fine without that scale, I know it. :)
Weighed in at 133!
Rock on, Susan and Kacie!
I'm so far away from it, I don't even know what my ultimate goal weight is. I just know my current goal, 220, by the end of April.
I have yet to get back on my bike outdoors on real roads since DH bought me clipless pedals. I've been on the trainer a few times. I think I'm afraid of falling yet again. I'm still recovering from the car accident (fairly minor; three weeks ago; rear-ended at a red light; resulted in whiplash, a sprained tendon in my left wrist, and a emotional fragility that has left me weepy and uneven), too.
How do you deal with a fear of clipless pedals? Just get over it and get on the darn bike already?
Roxy
I'm going the right way, but oh so slowly. 182, down one whole pound from last week. Going on vacation next week. Keeping my fingers crossed I do not over eat and drink! :o bikerHen
For kacie and Susan O., a suggestion: Since we live in a home with a small bathroom, we really don't have floor space to keep a weigh scale permanently there. So we put our scale in storeroom on shelf. It makes the scale abit less visible and abit less accessible. I can get it out within 3 min.
It works for me since I forget to weigh myself for chunks of time. I weigh myself approx. 2-4 times per month or less even.
I'm filled with wonder for people who do weigh themselves daily for several years. I psychologically could not handle that.
Just my opinion, but I think given the fragility that you are feeling, and the need for you to have your riding back as soon as you are able, I would give some thought to going back to riding without the clipless until you feel strong and happy again, then try them again. I would worry that right now, you don't need to add on the fear of falling with the pedals. Other than that- yeah, I just had to get back on and hope to not fall again. Making fun of myself and showing off the scars seemed to help me a lot too. :)
