I gained half a pound, how frustrating.  Maybe I'm NOT over my plateau.  But on the bright side, I had so many people this week tell me that I look like I lost weight and I bought my first size 12 jeans!  I haven't ever worn a 12 jean in my adult life!!!  Little victories, little victories.

Hi, I'd also like to join you.  I am 33yo, 5'8.  Starting weight 223, now at 219. My first goal is also to lose ten lbs with my final weight at 160.  I know we can do this!

Hey Ladies!

 

Missed weigh in yesterday because my SCALE BROKE...ahhh, I wonder what that was saying. Actually, my friend and I were getting outrageous readings, down 10 lbs one day and up 5 the next. So, I have purchased a new scale, and I like this one better because it weighs you at .2lbs not just .5.....now I will be able to see even the smallest loss.

 

However, the downfall of this weigh in, lets just say that motivation never occured and I had a wedding and some other crazy stuff this week so........the numbers are as follows

 

6/17/08

Starting weight: 219

Last week: 214

This week: 213.6

down .4 lbs

First goal, by sept 1, 199

Ultimate goal 165

guess its time to step it up!

Hello Everyone,

Last week: 223

This week: 222

I lost 1 lb. But this is great because I was horrible all weekend long. Friday I took my son to Sesame Place and ate everything I wasn't supposed to like cotton candy, popcorn and burgers with fries. I loved every minute of it. LOL LOL.

Good Luck to All!!

I've been at a plateau for almost 6 weeks now, up and down, up and down.  This week it got way too frustrating.  I went on a week-long binge.  I ate everything that I've been depriving myself of for 4 months.  I'm back on the wagon now.

So I think ive crashed, Iv had a rough week, I completely went of diet and just binged, its awful, I dont know what got into me! Very depressing week, alot of alcohol, But I still managed to lose a whopping 1 pounder! So im getting back on track and getting focused again wish me luck!

Hey, just wondering if I'm too late to join.  I just signed up for CC a week ago today.  I've been trying to eat better for awhile now but I guess I was doin somethin wrong cause my clothes still didn't fit.  But CC has already helped.  I've lost like 3 pounds since last Tuesday!!!  I almost fainted when that number came up!!  lol  Well, hope its ok and good luck!!!

Absolutely.  We weigh in on Tuesday and are here for support when you need it!

ok...thanks!!!  A couple days late but better then never.  This info is from last week but I'll get back on and update later.

Hey Everyone, its Thursday, I know....a few days late. It seems like we all struggled this week. I have not lost anything in the past 6 days, my friend seems to think its water weight because every day I am up and down. Its been crazy stressful, drank too much Friday, felt awful Saturday, ran around like a lunatic all week getting the oldest to camp and keeping the little ones occupied for three hours. I have been walking and getting a lot of exercise, I think I have just lost the combination of food and exercise to make the difference. So I guess we'll post this weeks results, although a few days late, its nice to know we are all working harder this week.

I just got back to CC after being gone for about 6 months. When I started last summer is when I had the most success. Buddy systems make a huge difference! We can do it guys!

Got back on track after my bad week but its still very frustrating.  I can't get under 190 for my life.  All I want is to see an eight after the one.  This weekend is going to be tough because of the holiday and I have friends coming down to stay with me.  I hope I have the stregnth not to drink and make good food choices, that being said my goal this week is not to gain.

I'd like to join in as well.

I started a diet about 6 months ago and dropped 15 but then subsequently had two pregnancies and losses which made me go off my diet. I started again recently. Here are my stats:

I hope everyone did ok over the holiday weekend.  I am proud of myself, I ate healthy when we went out to eat, skipped ice cream, and only drank diet coke and rum when we went out.  On a very high note, I'm in the 180's!!! Yay!!!
