Monday Weigh In - How are you doing?

Posting this to get the thread started.  I overslept this morning so can't weigh myself until later. I was down a pound at the gym on Wed., but hope for more. Let us know how you are doing.

I was pretty good with my eating all week except yesterday. I had to take Imitrex shots for migraines Fri, Sat and Sun. By Sunday I was so tired of the headaches, I ate "buttered" toast - 6 pieces over the day, 2 sourdough crusts, 4 whole wheat. I don't know why, but this always seems to help. By 9 PM the headache was gone, but the carbs will probably  stick.

Start: 450
Last: 360
This: 362 - shoot

Updated 6:40 PM - Either the bread is sticking with me or else I differ that much during the day. Oh, well, maybe next week.

Oh yeah, and salt. I had 2 Clausen dill pickle havles yesterday.

I don't mind a gain so much if I can explain why (and it s/b temporary).

Did good all week, most days i got in all my protein an water and been working out 6 days a week 45mins a day either riding recumbent bike or walking.. i think im not getting in enough calories cuz it seems like weeks when i think im eating too much. i lose more weight... an when im just barely getting in my protein in i gain..  how strange it is to have a backwards dilema of what my life used to be...

Start: 453
Last: 311
Today: 313 +2 lbs 

That's so frustrating, but the loss will show up eventually. Maybe you do need to eat more. Are you drinking plenty of water and other fluids>

I also saw an interesting article last week on sleep and weight loss. Your body needs the sleep to break down the fat (my version). Here's the whole article.

I was realllly bad about my water this weekend. And I should have skipped some of the salt as well: I was up a few this morning.

I did my bike for 40 minutes -- I kept it up above 15 mph the whole time. Maybe tomorrow I'll put my heart rate monitor on and go for a walk in sweats.

It was a deeelightful 52 degrees this morning when I woke up -- I so hope fall is really here. (It was 100 last Friday afternoon when I took my kid out to see the Space Shuttle land.)

Start: 388
This morning: 293
Last week: 290

We had a few 100 degree days this summer too, but you surely get lots more. I don't think I'd leave the AC in your climate!

Doesn't the fall tinge in the weather make you want to get out and walk? You go!

I was sick most of the weekend.  Started a new mutivitamin and it didnt agree with me at all.  So I didnt eat or drink like I should have.  But I'm better today and have gotten back on track, excpet for the exercising.  I havent been doing that.  I know I know..I need to, and I will.  I'm joining curves this week.
So heres the numbers:

Start: 338
Last : I've forgotten
Current: 300 ( I'm almost under 300, wooohooo me )

I'm such a wimp about falling out of my exercise routine, esp if I'm sick. Good job job having a plan to get that starting up again.

So are you gonna weigh every day for that magic moment? Or wait til next week?

I'd probably check hourly.

Although I know that I shouldnt, I weigh daily.  And it varies by about 3 lbs on a daily basis.  So I wont say I'm under 300 till the scale says about 297 or under on a consistant basis.  When I weighed this morning, it said 299....but then I weighed just a little while ago and it said 301...so I wont celebrate till it says at least 297.
Wierd I know, and I know I shouldnt be weighing everyday, but I just cant help it.  It's like crack..LOL

 I weigh everyday.  Once in the am and once in the pm.  I have since before surgery.  I believe it keeps me on track.

SW: 404
LW: 346
TW: 343

-3 lbs

I had a bad weekend with eating too much Chili. But that stuff tastes soooo good.
