Summer - Frequent Weigh-in

This thread has been created for those who want to post their weigh-ins for the Summer months (June 1st through August 31st). 

Encouragement and accountability is here to help you on your healthy journey.

 279.4   this morning.  Here we go back UP (again).  Trying to retrace my steps back to 276.0.

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 279.4    Weight Tossed = 57.0

This week has been a yoyo up and down.  I have not eaten my meals on a regular basis but have watched not eating after 7:30 PM.  A lot of "processed" foods ending up with over the limit sodium minimum of 2400.  It seems like I'm in the same dilemma with Denna trying to get out of the 70's and I am stuck in the 60's.

Here are my stats for 06/20/09:

• Start Weight: ................................. 480.6 lb
• Goal Weight: .................................. 250.0 lb
• Last Weigh In: .......... 06/13/09 ..... 460.2 lb 
• Current Weigh In: ..... 06/20/09 ..... 460.4 lb 
• Total Weight Tossed: ......................  20.2 lb
• Weight left to Throw: ..................... 210.4 lb
• Weight tossed since last weigh in: .... 0.0 lb  
• Weight gained since last weigh in: .... 0.2 lb

 279.6   this morning.  My knees are very swollen from yesterday’s bike ride.  I am pretty sure that I am swollen in other areas but they are not as noticeable as my knees.  Trying to retrace my steps back to 276.0.

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 279.6    Weight Tossed = 56.8 

458.6 this morning.  Looks like I am flirting with the 50's, finally.  Maybe I can make the end of June a success with being in the middle 50's.

(Surprised totally - TOM came, after nothing since February.  I should have never said anything to Denna.  That will teach me! LOL)

My turn to report but I am afraid to.  I don't want to frighten IT away!!!!

::  Elmer Fudd voice  ::  Be verry verry quiet!!  I'm hunting wabbits 276.0.

Shhh.  It Is Right There - within reach.  I'm afraid to say anything.  I will report it tomorrow if when the magic number repeats itself.

 And you said that you thought that you were starting menopause.  Mother Nature thinks differently.

But still yet, You are down to 458.6 even with Mother Nature's joke.

I totally by passed the 276.0 that I was trying so hard to get to. 

This morning I am at 275.6.  I hope that I can hold on to this toss.

There are some things going on in my life and I know that I am not eating correctly.  Some people have uncontrolable eatting when they are stressed and emotional.  Count it up to being a left-handed dyslexic [totally backwards from everyone], but I am the opposite. 

I know that I am not getting all my calories in.  I hope that there will not be a huge bump up when my Full appetite returns.

 276.6  this morning.  This is a 1.0lb bump up from yesterday.  Please Mr. 275.0 come back.  

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 276.6    Weight Tossed = 59.8

OK

SO - I have to confess something.  The 275.6 yesterday (I think) only came from the fact that the stress had caused my appetite to fail.  Yesterday I felt like eating without getting nauseated at the mere thought of food.  But my calories were as follows for the past week.....

• 06/16 = 1,996
• 06/17 = 2,157
• 06/18 = 1,722
• 06/19 = 1,420
• 06/20 = 1,735
• 06/21 = 0
• 06/22 = 952
• 06/23 = 2,010

Please not do not get on the soap box about how this is damaging to my body with starvation mode and other stuff that is passed around on this site. 

The stress and emotional junk just causes me to throw up when I eat.  I can force myself to eat but that would only result in the food coming back up.  The only thing that gets accomplished is the acid reflux and the burning esophagus from throwing up all the time. 

This is just how my body reacts.  This is NOT a conscience effort that I am practicing.  I'm not  saying that the issues are resolved, I am just finding other ways to cope.

Denna, I know this was hard to share.  You know your body much better than any of us.  We are in no place to judge.  We each have our own issues.  Know that I am here to support and encourage you - to be your friend and have a listening ear.  Thank you for being transparent.

Take care my friend!  Norma Jean 

    ACK!!!!

Double ACK!!!

 277.0  this morning. 

This is may only be a 0.4 bump up from yesterday, but if this keeps going on, I will end up back at 280.0.  That can not happen.  

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 277.0    Weight Tossed = 59.4

Well, here are my sad numbers for the day....

 277.4   this morning.   I am only inching my way back up.  Stop It NOW!!!!

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 277.4    Weight Tossed = 59.0 

Maybe I need to try to fit in two of the videos a day?  Or maybe a morning exercise / fitness session in the morning and one in the evening?

Hi everyone, Weighed in this am at 220 lbs. up one pound but that is OK, I wanted to be at 220 lbs. for the end of June. My goal is to remove 5 lbs. per month till I get to 156. We shall see how that works out. Roger from Western NY

The day off caused me to jump back up to 280.0.

So here we go again, trying to retrace my steps back to 276.0.

I have a theory.  I have been craving salty products.  With the weather getting HOTTER, Am I getting enough water?  Is my body craving salty stuff so that I could take in more water to absorb the sodium?  Is that how it works?

 281.0   this morning.  

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 281.0    Weight Tossed = 55.4 

Blasted fried chicken...  Baked Beans...  Potato Salad...

I have got some major work to do.......

I am retaining fluid again. I dont think that I actually gained I just have the extrea fluid. This is my fault. I have not taken my lasix since Friday. I have so very busy and on the go so I didnt take them. I just havent been doing a really good job watching my foods either. I have not been logging my foods here on CC. I have to learn to make the time even when I am very busy. We all have busy lives and I know that it is no excuse. I want to get back on track this week.

 282.6   this morning.  

SW = 336.4 on 07/16/08    CW = 282.6    Weight Tossed = 53.8

I think that I might be a little confused on which direction that I should be going. 

Monthly Weigh In: July 1st. up .4 lbs.....I actually was 315 June 1st but I lost 5 pounds with a sever strep infection. I started Weight Watchers June 8 and CC about a week later. So weight now is 310.4, better than 315 but I am disappointed...I have been working really hard at this and was hoping for a loss. On Monday weigh in at WW I had lost 2.4 lbs so I don't know what happened but I guess the hard work will eventually show.

Today is a brand new day and a new month!  Monthly weigh-in - 469.6 - This is a 6.8 pound gain since June 1st.  The last 8 days I did not stick with anything - reverted to old habits.  STOP IT!  STOP IT!

I'm taking the plunge!!!

Today I weighed in at 233. I've lost 9.5 lbs. in 8 weeks!

New month, new day starts now ...
