Hello and good morning everyone. My weight this morning is 217.4. See, I am still addicted to the scale, weighing myself morning and night. I haven't been exercising like I should. It is rainny here this week. I can't get out to walk. I run short of time also, by the time I get home from work, help my son with homework, shower and make and eat supper it is bed time. How does everyone here find time to exercise?

I need to do better on the weekends. I lost 4 lbs. last week and gained 6 back over the weekend. I know alot of that can be water but I am also so bad on the weekends. Please give me strength.......

Good Morning everyone!!! Hope you all have a FABULOUS day!!! My weight this morning is 218.0 lbs. I had a good day yesterday. 1233 calories in and I walked 5 miles. It is going to be very hard. I was somewhat hungry yesterday. Today is a new day and I hope I can maintain the day I had yesterday. Its rainy today so I don't know how much walking I will get done. TTYL, Sherry

Thanks Jen and thanks for the comment on my journal. If anyone can hold my nose to the grindstone, my friends at CC can.

Hello Everyone,

I have been away for a long time, but I am back. I missed you all terribly. I wrote why I was gone in my journal entry for today you all are welcome to read it.

While I have been away I have gained back 15 of the 30 lbs I had lost. Well I am back and starting again.

I really did miss you all.

Good Morning Everyone.... I am back from vacation and had a wonderful time! It was hot as blazes!!! Swam, fished, read and rode my bike along with all the other chores that goes with camping.

I went off my diet for my vacation..... bad...... news...... I gained 6lbs in one week!!!!!!!!!! I am back up to 214lbs again. I haven't been this weight since April. I am a little depressed that one week can cause this. I wanted to have a good time on vacation and not worry about counting calories. Oh well.... time to really crack the whip now!

Congrats on the 14lbs Caverlady! I have a question for you..... do you like to go caving?, hence your user name.... sounds like fun.

I am going to be the oddball and say that I absolutely HATE the treadmill.... BORING.... I would much rather be outside.

Hello.... to all my friends here at CC. I am so sorry I have been gone. With the boss on vacation and the beginning of the month being my busiest time here at work I have been swamped. I have missed you all.

I am doing great. My weight is basically the same at 208.6 but at least it hasn't increased.

Everyone is doing so well! I am proud of you!!!

I'll try to keep up with posts today. I am going on vacation tomorrow and will be without a computer for a week. We are going camping. It will be so fun!!! Soooo excited.

Hello Everyone,

Sorry it took most of the day to stop in and say hello.

Jen - I don't know a thing about zigzagging. Maybe we will find out soon here.

As far as hormone replacement therapy..... My life partner had a hysterectomy in 1995. She had to be put on Provera because of the mood swings it caused. She did gain alot of weight on the medication. She remained on the medication until about 5 years ago when her doctor took her off of it. The doctor said Provera was bad for you and it was being pulled off the shelves due to the risk of cancer. I think if you are not having many symptoms or they are minimal, maybe you could talk to your doctor about trying the herbal supplements.

Good Morning!!!!!!!!! I had a great time mowing last night, it was alot of work and it took 2 1/2 hrs, but I got it done.

Thanks Caverlady and wildntakn for the compliments on my son.

Caverlady... let me know when the biggest loser challenge starts and I'll check into it.

Tonight my son has a ballgame but looks like it may be cancelled, it looks pretty ominous out there. It is so dark outside right now that the street lights are coming on. Looks like we are in for a wild day!!!!!! Got the yard mowed just in time! LOL

Caverlady.... Congrats and your weight and inches loses. I'm proud of you! You are an inspiration!!!!! Laughing

Wildntakn.... What is Max Alt? Is it a migraine perscription?

Pam,

The treadmill sounds awesome. I have a problem walking inside it is so boring to me. I love to be outside with the sights, sounds and smells. Don't worry about the weekend you did pretty good anyway. This starts a new week and I know you are probably going to do great when you weigh on July 4th. I can't stand waiting..... I have to use the scale twice daily.

 

I have added everyone on here to my buddy list, I hope it's ok.

Hello everyone!!!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend. My weekend was awesome!!! I went off my diet for the weekend. I know... I'm a bad girl. There is no way I can go to my mom's house after church on Sunday and be on a diet. MMMMMM Home cooking.

My weigh in for this morning is 209.8 . Now it is time to get back to work on the diet.

So far I have eaten one serving of oatmeal and 16oz of coffee and I have had my morning 1 mile walk. How about everyone else?

Jen,

I'm so sorry to hear about the surgery you had to have. Hopefully in the long run you will feel much better for it. At least you don't have to mess with TTOTM anymore....oh what I wouldn't give.....

I certainly hope you meet your goal before your birthday. Hang in there, at least you didn't gain this week.

I alotted my ice cream in my daily calories so I can only have a small  salad tonight. I guess it will be worth it to spend some quality time with Joey.

I leave work at 4:30pm central time. I won't be able to get back online to you all until Monday morning. Don't fret I'll be back. I need you all support and I love supporting others.

Thanks,

Sherry

Hey I like beer too!! I have limited myself to maybe one per month. Problem is I can't limit myself to one meal per month!!! LOL

I have always shopped in the big girls shop. I have been a size 16 or higher since Kindergarten ! HA

I am totally addicted to the scale. I weigh in the morning and in the evening. So I am not the best one to give you advice on weighing. I can't walk by a scale without stepping on it.

I am starving myself today because I am taking my son for ice cream after work. I hope I make it through the day!!!!!!!!! Boy will that ice cream taste good!!!!!

Hi Pam, Can I add you as a buddy? I quit smoking July 29,2007. I put on 35lbs. I know what you are going through. It is very hard to quit smoking and lose weight. I still crave smokes every now and then. I ALWAYS crave food!!!LOL My doctor also told me that quitting smoking will make your metabolism get back to normal (slower). I am having a hard time losing weight because I also have hypothryoidism. I also LOVE food. Sherry

My short term goal is to get under 200lbs. When I do I am going to go out for Taco Bell (I know, my reward shouldn't be food!) I just LOVE Taco Bell. My son and I are going to a custards place. They don't have yogurt, but I think they have a light variety.

What is your exercise program? I walk a mile twice a day at work on my breaks. Yesterday I push mowed our entire lawn (we have 3 lots), it took 2 hrs.

As far as weekends, I do fall off the wagon but I get back on every Monday. That is why my weight loss is so slow. Oh well, I still have lost 20 lbs since January. I guess it is better slow than not at all.

Good Morning Ladies.... Thanks for being my friends, I will add all of you and you are welcome to add me. Are you all here this morning? I'm sorry I couldn't reply yesterday but I was at work and it was time to go home. It is so nice to meet all of you. I am a bad girl. I weigh everyday, twice a day. This morning I weighed 209.2 lbs. I will probably ruin it this weekend. I am taking my son out for ice cream tonight, also weekends are my free time to eat what I want "in moderation". Hope you all are online so we can chat.

Hello,

Thank you everyone for your support. I am really going to work at this starting January 1st. 1500 calories and continue the exercise, maybe even kick it up a notch. Thank you so much for all the advice and the support. I also wanted to say that normally I can "spell" I was just stressed that day. Thanks so much for the comment on the matter.

Thank you so much for letting me know it takes three months for an increase of thyroid medication to take effect. That really helps.

Sue,

Thanks for the welcome! I have tried to not weigh daily. I am addicted to the scale. I weigh before and after work! As far as 1250 calories, that is the amount that this site told me to consume. I vigorously walk 1 mile two times a day in 15 min. I started walking when I quit smoking (Aug. 29th last cigarette).

The people in my weight loss group are all women ranging from 195lbs to 218lbs.

Is only losing 4lbs in 6 wks ok or am I doing something wrong. I suffer from high thyroid function, high blood pressure and high colesterol. Maybe I just can't lose weight.

I am really yo yoing like you humorpam. Gain of 4lbs in a day then next day lose 1 lb. Next day gain 2 lbs. Then lose 3lbs next day. I don't know what causes this. I am not eating any additional sodium. I am just so frustrated. Also, I feel like I am starving all the time on a 1250cal diet.Yell

Also, I need some friends and some support.

Good morning Brighteyes777 and everyone else!!! I really can't believe this thread is still going. It was only the third time I've ever posted anything online. It is so good hearing everyone's opinions and suggestions. I went to the store last night and did a little better than usual. I got to buy some deli turkey and baby carrots.  I was looking at the whole grain bread which of course is two times more expensive than regular white off brand sandwich bread. What I found is maybe the whole grain bread might be nutritionally better for you, however, it has many more calories than the white bread (or at least the one I looked at did). Needless to say I stuck with the white bread for the cheaper cost and lower calories.

Very well put Brighteyes777. You know, sometimes I only have 16-20 dollars per week to feed my family of three. It makes it very hard. Yes I know there are some healthy foods out there that don't cost an arm and a leg, however, after beans, chicken and milk are bought, you get hotdogs, lunchmeat, hamburger etc. with what you have left so you can try to get enough food to last a week. You can't even think about fresh fruit or produce.
