Good Morning,

 How is everyone doing?  jeanus, do you have a snow day?  Here in the northeast we are getting snow...

My unofficial weight this morning (it isn't monday:0) was the same...198.  Yes I was hoping for a drop.  Trying to realize that I have been back for 2 weeks and I lost 4 pounds.  That is actually good, but I was hoping for a quick drop in the beginning.  I DID however loose inches and that is more important!  I am really happy about that. 

ave a great day

Nope I live in Florida, so no snow days for us. Its really hot all the time i dont like it much actually.

Hey Everyone,

I'm doing pretty good today but I have been super tired lately, schoolwork keeps me up later many a night. A lot of times I only get three or four hours of sleep ......

Yikes!  That's not near enough sleep!  If you talk to the experts, they'll tell you that getting a good night's sleep is just as important to weight loss as watching calories or getting exercise.

Take care of yourself.  Are you up late studying?  Hanging with friends?  Watching TV????  Not looking for you to give me an answer but rather for you to ask yourself that question and to take some kind of action, whether it's to get your studying in earlier or turn the TV off at a certain time. 

However, you DO get kudos for picking up a new scale!  Just remember, the scale is our friend even if we do want to drop-kick it sometimes!  LOL 

Take care of yourself, Jeanus.  There are a lot of us out here pulling for you!

Actually it's pretty much my busy schedule with school, the problem with it is that sometimes they will go a little easier on us and we will get not so much homework and then the next week is totally insane like three all nighters in a week and that is without TV I mean i have other things to do i have to take care of my dogs and do dishes and clean my room and keep up but i dont really WASTE much time on television or useless things. I dont get much time with my friends except for on weekends. So yeah theres my answer, this makes it difficult to get in an exercise program but since tommorrow is friday I am goign to row on our rowing machine for at least half an hour, usually i feel like doing more than half an hour once im actually on there, and an hour on the machcine is worth about 800 calories.

Gender: Female

Height: 5'9''

Weight: 208

Goal Weight: 145-150 (we'll see when we get there)

Mini Goal: 185

Age: 17

Frame: Medium

Hey Everyone, I hope its goign good with the dieting and weight loss. I still havent been abe to really get going one of my big problems is that if I'm at school I can buy all sorts of different junk foods and i usually end up buying a poptart which is 400 CALORIES!!! And the worst part about it, it doesnt really fill me up. But i think that if i get  a fresh start with a new scale and stuff that I will be able to get on much better, right now I'm at 208 and I want to get to 160 by the beginnining of June which i know is a stretch but if im able to get into a good routine i think i can do it. Does anyone have any words for me?

 Oh yeah and what kinds of scales do you guys have because I need a good one that is consistent which im having trouble with.

Yeah I think we should do a weekly Weigh in how every Monday mornings? Then everyone can talk about their progress every Monday evening and hwo they are doing throughout the week, and it will give me some time to get back on the wagon again with everyone else (not to make it all about me or anything if thats how it sounded). How does taht sound to everyone? Monday morning weigh in and update?
