I told you i wasn't weighing in today after eating so much corned beef. And I wasn't lying.

Hope everyone else had a good week!

Hey everyone! Back on the weightloss track.. been in on this eating right thing for about a week now.... started at 240.... down to 235 today.... so 5 lb loss so far! See you all next week!

Hmm.. Lost a pound this week. I think it would have been more if I hadn't found Low-carb tortillas on Sunday. This led to Monday night enchiladas. The enchilada sauce only had 2 carbs per serving, but on closer review had 26! servings in the can. (A tablespoon is a serving - get real!) This led to a tasty but too-many carbed meal. At least, that's what I think my stomach was telling me on Monday night...

those sneaky serving sizes! eek. good you came out with minimal damage, sven.

as for me, i'm not weighing in right now...it's not good timing and i don't think it would contribute to an overall good attitude, so i'm just doing what i need to do, scale be d@mned.

Goddess - Never let the scale get you down

I realize that I probably let the scale effect my Tuesday mood a little too much, but lately, it's been more helpful than hurtful, so I'm not going to sweat it.

I realize weight loss/maintenance is a lifelong process, but I'm really pushing to reach 250 by the end of the month. Tuesday morning, my scale said 254.5 so it's not out of the bounds of reality (and of course, if the d@mn things says 251, I'm not going to lose any sleep either -I hope- )

Of course, at the end of next month I go back home to NH to see my parents/brothers for the first time since Christmas (pre-lc) It won't be so much about what the scale says, but about how I look that will be impressive (I hope). I really don't think my parents have looked at me since my daughter (age 17 monthes) has been born

wow, so you've got a 50-pound loss to pop 'em with! you'll have to let us know how that goes. it's fun to see people you haven't seen in a while, huh?

and i'm taking your advice: i'm only using the scale when/how it supports me, and keeping focused on other stuff the rest of the time.
