Weekly Weigh In week of 1/21

I'm embrassed to say I gained 2Ibs. I ate king cake and 2-dounuts in the last week. I wish I could go back in time and not eat them but it's too late. I don't dump on sugar unless it's alot of it. I'm trying hard to get back on track. Pattie

I HATED TO POST THAT *MY* scale was up (and still is) but WE have to keep it **REAL*** if we do not we are ONLY kidding ourselves. We can do this - its just really wanting it and getting in the RIGHT frame of mind. hang in there and .... don't be ashamed - BE D E T E R M I N E D!!!!

Well I am down a little this week so that helped. I got up for 6 AM Aqua Jogging yesterday on my day off, it was 1 degree outside. The family went to a movie yesterday and I indulged in some popcorn. I am having trouble grazing also. I am out of my micellar milk back ordered at the vitamen shoppe so I was missing my morning protein so I have been having a shake so I think that helped in my loosing this week, I was really hungry and not eating enough protein. Starting weight 298.5 Last week = 159.2 This week = 158.4 Loss this week = 0.8 Total loss = 140.1 Current BMI = 28.97 So I'm working on exercise and not grazing this week. Everyone have a fabulous week. Deb

.8 is a great loss Deb! As you see you are not alone with grazing We all know HOW DANGEROUS that habit can be - and WHERE it can lead us to. We have come too far and worked to hard to go backl to our OLD ways have a great week! hugs, Britt

Good morning all! I've been busy these last couple of weeks and haven't had a lot of time to post but things are a little easier now so I'm back! My ex-husband and I took our son (Evan, 8) skiing 2 weekends ago and had a great time! I skied for 3 full days until my body said "no more!!!". It was great exercise and a fun experience! My son is a natural on the snowboard too. Anyway, I haven't been eating too badly but I have really slacked off on my water intake. I think that's why I haven't lost any weight in a few weeks. Sometimes I just get so bored with water and Crystal Light that I don't want to drink anything good for me. I tend to drink a lot of coffee and unsweet tea. But I'm trying to change that now. I'm not decreasing my coffee but I'm trying to add more water during the day. So far, so good. I've been exercising more but my scale still isn't budging. But that's okay because I know I am still losing inches. My size 8s are a little too big but I don't think size 6s will fit just yet. I might go try on some just to see though. I've been surprised before! Well, I wish everyone a very happy week filled with determination and motivation. Hugs, Susan Starting weight: 233 Last week: 143.8 This week: 144.0 Gain: .2

Good to see you on the board, Susan! I was just asking about you the other day! CeCe

Sounds like you all had a great ski weekend - how nice for your son he must have LOVED that family get-a-way congrats on movng into size 6's whooo hooooo hugs, Britt

Hello! I too need to get my grazing under control. I have been having a major sweet tooth and just keep doing the one little bit will be ok! But its not it just sets me up to want more! So far it hasn't effected my weight loss but I know it is just a matter of time! Stats for the week: Start weight: 268 Last week: 143.5 This week: 143 Loss this week: .5 Total loss: 125 Current BMI: 23.7

Kim, Many of us are having to STOP grazing - you are not alone. We can do it! great job on your 1/2 pound hugs, Britt

I never did post on this thread yesterday - forgot! Britt, is the scale back to normal again? Anyway, I stayed the same 130.25 (or 130.50, depending on the day!). My BMI is 22.4, I think! CeCe
