Ok so I'm pretty fired up to lose these unwanted pounds. After a week I went from 213 to 205. I know, I know, it's all water

and the pace will slow dramatically as time goes on. But I thought it might be cool to have a weekly weigh in where we could fess up and keep accountable. So just pick a day of the week, I personally like Sundays to come here and post your weight. I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this is a pretty cool idea

.

Any one else?

Once a week weigh in is a good idea, Gregg. Not too often, just often enough.

I am all in for the weekly weigh in...My problem is trying not to step on the scales everyday...tomorrow will be my 7th day on the LC this time around and yes i had to sneek yesterday and get on the scales. Down from 252 to 245. Anyway Wednesdays are my weigh in days. I figure nothing can get me through hump day like seeing the scales going down.

Way to go! 7 pounds the first week!

I know how you feel, its hard not to weigh every day, but it's probabaly best to just weigh weekly. There's nothing wrong with daily weighing of course, but I think it leads to over complicating and over analyzing. Better to just monitor the trend and not get too caught up in the daily fluctuations.

I'm in!!! I need all the encouragement I can get. My scale needs a new battery, so I need to get one of those so that I can keep track. I can feel the changes happening in my body so I know that something is happening. I really need to see that number to not think that my mind is playing tricks on me. I guess I'm worried that the first time around was somekind of a fluke and I won't work again.

I'm the same way Amy, I thought this time around that I wouldn't weigh and just let my clothes tell me that I'm on track. But I can't help myself I want to know!

I've heard it said that it doesn't work as well the second time around.. or third or fourth hehe.. but for me it works every time lol

OK well I weighed in yesterday and as I suspected, the loss rate has slowed substantialy. It seems I only dropped 1 lb last week so for a total 2 week loss of 9 lbs. Ah well, nobody said it would be easy hehe!

mythreesons1967 · #11 01-21-2009, 07:07 AM

Today was weigh in day for me...I am down 6 pounds this week. Happily to report. I know the numbers are going to start slowing down some but I am happy for the 13 that are gone so far...

***Amy*** · #12 01-21-2009, 11:54 PM

I went from 236 down to 230. I'm not sure if it's the new scale or not, but I'm taking it...

QueenMama · #13 01-22-2009, 04:17 PM

From 1/12 to today, 1/22, I've lost 6 lbs!!!!!!!!! For me, that is one major, phenomenal event!

gregg · #14 01-22-2009, 07:58 PM
