Slatelee- when are we weighing in? Anytime we lose, or on Sundays? I am down 2 more pounds, to 234 today. I'll weigh in the morning to see if it "holds". Later!

Down another .5 lbs to 147.5 this morning.

I watch my carbs (of course), I exercise at least 5 times a week- toning tables and cardio and I drink no less that 120 oz of water each day, I also take a multi vitamin and the omega 3,6 & 9 fatty acid suplement. Normally I am pretty slow too, but I am working a summer job this summer at the High School cleaning and I am taking around 20,000 steps a day so that is about 7 miles a day plus my exercise at the gym.

Plus stress is pretty high right now, which isn't helping.

holy moly, april! you GO, girl!

now i'm really slacking lately, and i see you burning up the tracks and know i'd better get BUSY! lol

it's kind of funny. i find that when i'm doing all the stuff i need to be doing in my life, the weight stuff kind of "snaps" into place, too. when i'm on top of things. and i've been lazy lately! oh well, recess is over.

time to get SER-e-us.

Thumbs up Re: July 4th with a bang

Welcome Celest, Drgnfly. You will find good support here.

My minor success is I survived a large family gathrering last night at which there were huge amounts of food- pastas, potatoes, sugary fruits, desserts all readily available. I stuck to my WOE and had roast beef, salad, rasberries, and lots of water. I was the only one not having a piece of icecream cake. And I didn't gain a thing overnight!! I also spent 20 minutes on the stairmaster this morning, then swam for another 20 minutes.

Stay the course. We can do it!
Howard

Ok, what is really going on here, woke up this morning and another one is history and im still in my tom. now that leaves me 7 lbs to goal, that goal is looking more and more obtainable. Im gonna have to try that 4 mile walk again, it wore me out, but the rewards are definetly worth it. Today is supposed to be my splurge day, but i may just pass on it after this, but then again i dont want to deprive myself of my weekly treat day, maybe I'll just continue as usual, its worked great for me so far.

start weight 302
goal start 249
current 247
goal to reach 240
lbs to goal 7

No movement on the scale here. Kind of sad about that- Nothing has changed in over 20 days:(. Ok there has been minor movement- I keep seing a rare visit from 206, then right back to 208 the next morning! Talk about frustrating.Not sure what the reason is~frustrated but not even close to ready to give up.

happy news this morning - 197, not 197.5, but 197. After the scare several days ago of seeing that d**n 200.5 again, I've been at induction for several days. Going to finish this weekend (maybe, maybe not). It has been quite satisfying and I could probably go another week and restart on Atkins (after Curves) again. I am feeling good, started TOM yesterday.
May stay at induction level another week (yesterday was a little off) - just in hopes of actually meeting a challenge goal.
