Monday Weigh In

I was up 1 lb from last Monday. I weighed in at 189. I’ll take it though…not too shabby. I do need to quit this maintaining business and start dropping.
-
I am so upset. Wow! I couldn’t believe it. Up 5. I am really not happy about this and I don’t really know what to say. Um………..Darn it! There, I feel better..Yeah right! I am up half of what I lost last year. My lowest was 160. I am up to 175. I really really really need to stop the cycle I am on. Its so frustrating! Well there you have it.
-
Maintaining (164.2)and happy. Hope you don’t mind if I still weigh in, I feel it keeps me accountable.
Christina this phase will pass just hang in there.
Nikki big hugs. don’t panic. God loves you. Just concentrate on eating healthily - you know your weaknesses. take it a day at a time.
-
169….AGAIN!!!! How depressing. I either need to step it up on the exercise or tone it down on the eating…or BOTH! I need to lose those 29 pounds!!!!
-
Thanks Elly!
-
123.5
Up 2 and it is definitely a true reflection of my eating this past week. I have been eating too often when I’m not hungry…late-night desserts are a big weakness for me. I know this will be a better week! -
I lost the 2 lbs of water I must have been holding on to last week. I am at 136…yesterday at 135, so it’s a little frustrating. We had an outdoor church service with a picnic after. I ate well and then went on a long hike up the mountain…so you’d think the number would have gone down not up. Oh well, it was a great day!
-
159.6 Down from where I was last week so I’ll take it.
I wish it was better. I go to the doctors on Wed. for a follow up on the weight gain from last year so we’ll see what they say. Say a prayer my blood sugar has returned to normal.
-
177. That’s up 1. I think I’m gonna take 2 weeks off (well, not as strict, anyway) as we’re away to Bible Camp then to my Sister’s.
-
208.6
(down 1.2 from last week, but up from 205.8 (I think) 2 weeks ago) -
I know this is a late weigh in, but I figured if I waited until Thursday I could sneak this in …
Up 2! Arghh! I had done so well the week before, too. Oh well. I seem to be having a good week, if I don’t screw it up this weekend. I think I can stay on track and focused.
-
I see ya bird
I’m having a bad week. Not looking forward to MOnday. especially since it was meant to be a phase one week, and it was more like phase 7 billion and 42. Or something…
-
If u were a chick, Bird, then u could just blame the 2 lb gain on water retention. Sucks to be u…

Monday Weigh in
Good Morning! It’s that time of the week…time to Weigh In!
I think Blest is out of town, so I thought I’d get a post out so that everyone can start weighing in.
Have a great week!

I’m down 3lbs this week. I weighed in at 188.
I didn’t have the best week but I did work out hard, so that probably helped quite a bit. Yeah!
-
169….I’m stuck…I did exercise all week (with the exception for one day) and I thought I had done some okay eating….will do better next week.
-
well, i weighed on Saturday morning and got 154.8 which would be the lowest yet but it doesn’t count.
Today.. 161!!! You guys were talking about pizza being the culprit, I do believe you’re right. We had pizza yesterday on the insistence of the kids and I’d say that’s the problem, well, and AF. Oh well.Exercise has been great, eating better then usual but that’s up 3.something.
:( -
No change here! Some fluid retention to blame, I think?
-
Hola chicas!
I forgot to weigh this morning because I actually woke up early for a training across town. So no sleeping in for me!
(
BUT, I started Phase 1 again last Thursday. By Saturday I had lost over two pounds. I’ve stuck with it most days, but did have carbs Sat & Sun. Today has been better. At any rate, I’m not over eating nor and I eating things that are bad for me . . . except for the Mexican sweet bread I couldn’t resist . . . but I’ll do better this week!
Oh, and I’m exercising more, so that’s good, right? Hmm . . . and that reminds me I need to go do some push-ups . . .
Y’all have a great week!!!
-
Good grief!
ThatJust felt the need to clarify that . . .
-
Don’t panic Stephine. I’m sure you will be down next week. Our monthly cycles do mess things up don’t they but by keeping up the good eating and the exercise the general trend will be downwards. So no giving up.
No panic either those who are stuck. Same comments apply.Well done Boo for getting back on the wagon.
Ok I am holding steady so am happy. Actually up half a pound soince last week but I tend to think that’s just the vagaries of the scales etc. its quite normal to vary up ad down from day to day. So final point don’t keep getting on the scales if you can avoid it. Once a week is fine. Hav e good week all. I finish my school term tomorrow so will have more time to exercise and comment I hope. -
I’m down 3 pounds this week. I made some eating changes that I’ll blog about later.
-
121.5
I’m so proud of you, Honey! Great going, Cristina and Boo! (And all of you…whether up, down or same–just weighing in shows your commitment!) -
I just have to say that this blog is not only encouraging and supportive, but an inspiration (especially my sister, Cristina)!
-
176. That’s down 3, but I’m fully expecting it all to pile back on, as I over-ate all weekend, only to find I was down 3lb! Crazy. My daughter reckons it’ll show up next week. We’ll see.

I got nothing, so you’d best all just weigh-in.

205.6.
Lowest so far
which means I’ve finally re-lost the wieght I put on when I started taking my meds.
-
157.6
down .4 I’ll take it. LOL. I tried getting back on my ellipital a couple days ago and about 10min later i couldn’t hardly move. It was bad. I’ve got a find another form of exercise. Eating was better this week then last but nowhere near where it should be.
-
down 1..136.
I was at 135 yesterday, but I know it’s today that counts.
Maybe next week! -
121
Great job, ladies! -
169…down two from last week (171)…i’ll take it…for now
-
135. Bad, bad eating while in Oregon over the weekend. Glad to be home where the healthy food lives.
-
Same as last week. (Well, at least it’s not up.)
Congratulations, Debs, on an all-time low!! -
I am with Julie. Same as last week. I am not too happy about it either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
164.4, up .4
Well done all you losers. Don’t be discouraged Nikki and Julie you maintained.
I need to get some exercise, don’t really think pull ups are me but I suppose I could try -
I meant push-ups
-
181 — up 1.5!
I’m making some adjustments in my eating this week. I WILL report a loss next week.
-
Well, don’t stick your journal in the laundry this week and you’ll be on to a winner
-
I weighed in at 191…same as last week. I’ll take it since I had a bad weekend. I tried to make up for my weekend though…drove 8 hours on Saturday, baptized my nephew on Sunday and drove back 8 hours on Monday. Well, I should say I rode for 8 hours…my hubby drove. But after we got back yesterday…I headed to the gym for a spin class.
-
I’ll unofficially weight in (and a day late, too. sorry!). I’m the same, which is good considering I haven’t been dieting. But I’m starting over with Phase 1. Yippee!
-
Go Boo go.

Weigh to Go?
Good morning y’all. I’m posting the weigh in, cos if I don’t, I may not get back to weigh-in later on. And since I’m an admin, I may as well make use of my privileges, right?!

I’m at 208.2.
That’s down .2 on last week, so pretty much just maintaining. It’s been a rough week sleep and pain wise, and other stuff, so i’m just happy to be still in the same place! -
179. That’s down one. I’m happy with that, as it hasn’t been a ‘good’ week, with the hen-night (curry), wedding (inc pudding and cream), and the take-away pizza. (Thanks Tami for your comments last week.)
I seem to have been stuck around this mark for a while. I need a bit more resolve I think. I also seem to have given up on the water intake, and strayed towards the chocolate. -
Go drink some more water Julie.
Fancy meeting up for a chat sometime soon? I’m away this week, but get back to me about when’s good for you.. -
:?
-
:?
huh?
what’s that for? -
Well hello my friends I have been avoiding for quite some time. Just thought I would pop over and weigh in. I have been bad but not really gaining too much. 170 is where I am now, and I want to lose at least 10 pounds this month. We are going on a mini vacation in August and I want to at least be at my lowest. So there you have it. I know what I need to do, now pray that I actually do it! Thanks gals! Oh, and I have missed you.
-
133-134. I was really bad Friday night - 4th of July and all. Back on the wagon this week. My mom and I are going to the Sister’s, OR quilt show this coming weekend. Yay.
-
193 -4!
Loving the treadmill again! -
158. up .4 i think. It’s been a long weekend and one full of junk since we were at an amusment park the whole time. i could have done better but chose not to. I’ve been back on track since I came back yesterday morning though so I’m ready for the week.
-
I’m up 1. Weighed in at 191
-
171…down two from last week….good enough for now.
-
124
Which is up 3.
Some is fluid, some is overindulgence…the good thing is I wasn’t as devastated as I would have been a couple of months ago. That is huge progress for me! -
164 which is down 2 1/2 to my lowest. i last weighed
in at this level in May I think. No idea why, maybe slightly more exercise this week. I definitely need to get back to doing some cos I am very flabby. Haven’t been swimming for weeks and not a lot of walking either.
Blest why are you being cryptic?
Welcome back NikkiWEll done everyone for weighing in. i do appreciate its been a holiday weekend for you folks across the pond.
Julie you are not going up so be encouraged.. Most of us would say we have plateaued at some stage so take heart and don’t panic. i recommend going back on the water it does help. chocolate is ok in small portions especially the dark stuff but you know what is ok for you. -
179.5 — down 1/2.
I’ll be back w/my food journals today.
-
137..down 1.
-
Dear OWOA-ers, I have a question for you. I have been thinking about posting again but I’m not quite sure about it. My goal is kind of weird for this site: I need to gain 20 lbs. in the next 4 months or so — and then lose it again (along with the 8 lbs. or so that I’ve already gained) after my baby arrives in late December.
I’ve been thinking that on the one hand, it’s reasonable for me to post about trying to cook good food when I’m still nauseated, and satisfying carb cravings in a healthy way, and getting exercise when I’m (did I mention?) still queasy. But I don’t recall other OWOA-ers participating through pregnancy. Does anybody mind if I post about aiming for healthy weight gain while vanquishing the ice cream addiction?
On a totally unrelated topic, I am planning to make a chickpea pancake for dinner tonight. (I’ve been browsing through Mark Bittman’s vegetarian cookbook, which is full of fun stuff). Who’s got a guess as to how many of my boys will try it, and how many will say yuck?
-
I say…go ahead and post CJ! I think it will be interesting and we are here to encourage one another. When I was pregnant with my boys, I felt like I SHOULD have Dairy Queen once a week at the very least! This site would have been VERY helpful back then.
Oh and the chickpea pancake sounds a little yucky to me and I’m 32…Hope your boys are more willing to try new things than me!!
WELCOME BACK!
-
CJ-
I say we all need to eat healthy, so post away. As long as it doesn’t bring you down reading about others losing while you have to gain. And my take on ice cream while prego…the baby neeeeeeeds calcium! Am I right?

Yay, blest posted the weigh-in.
We loves you blestI was at 208.4, which is down from 213.4, so down 5.
I haven’t particularly been on phase one or anything, so I’m thinking it’s just my body settling down again with the meds I’m on. (shame it won’t settle down with regards to me sleeping, but that’s another story!)I’m still 2.4 above my lowest weight so far, but it feels like there’s hope for next week’s weigh in
-
I’m at 191 today, that’s down 1.6 from last week’s weigh in. Still trying to get back down to my lowest of 189.5, so I’m almost there.
-
180. That means I’ve lost the 1 lb I put on last week, and am equal to 2 weeks ago.
-
197 today. I had pizza yesterday which puts on 4# automatically. Literally. It’ll be back down tomorrow BUT I’m back on phase 1 today however I will still munch on carrots over the next 2 weeks.
-
156.8
That’s the average for what i’ve been for the past month. I know it’s because of what I’m eating and what exercise i’m NOT getting.
I know why things are like they are and I know I need to curb it but I’m not having much success in that process. It’s just frustrating. I’m working on it. -
Up 2 from last week…Same issue as Tami..THE PIZZA. It’s only the 2nd time I’ve had real Pizza in 9 months. I only had 2 small slices, but the damage was done
Working hard to fix it this week.
Have a great day everyone!
-
What is it with Pizza, is it the salt content? I don’t get it. I haven’t been eating pizza.
I an down 2 to 166.6 so basically holding steady. I seem to go up and down betwwen 164 and 169 but I think I am happy. To lose more I think I would have to up the exercise somewhat and of course that might put on muscle but I don’t think it would be sustainable. The good bit is I can still wear the clothes I bought a year ago. I am actually wearing size small in jumpers (albeit from a specialist tall person shop so probably not small in the average sense) but for someone who always started with extra large that is rather exciting.
My weekend was mainly spent fetching daughter HP back from uni in Exeter. I drove down Friday night arriving at Midnight. Packed Saturday morning and early pm, did some shopping and got home at 10.30 pm. I needed a nap Sunday afternoon but it was a good weekend.
Favourite foods. I love my standard packed lunch ( I eat it 2 or 3 times a week) of salad leaves, baby toms, radish, pepper(capsicum) strips, cucumber etc with feta type cheese and something meaty like turkey, ham or today salmon. Variations on a theme depending what is around. Add some olive oil and vinegar dressing and maybe a few pumpkin or sunflower seeds and it’s just perfect. Lots of chewing which keeps me satisfied all afternoon.
Favourite snack is humous with veg sticks (celery, carrot etc)
New recipes will have to wait till term is over in just over 3 weeks. -
121
Speaking of pizza–I can’t wait to try Papa John’s new Whole Wheat crust!
Current healthy foods? For me-popcorn, salad and dark chocolate! -
Weighing in at 173…..Weighed the same at the doctor’s office on Thursday, but on Tuesday of last week….I weighed 169.5 on the scale at my mother’s house….Today makes 1 week that I have been exercising consistently…IT’S A MIRACLE!
-
The whole wheat crust at Papa John’s is WONDERFUL!!! Very soft!!! Just don’t overload it with pepperoni, sausage, and ham….the veggie pizza is really gooooood!
-
Cheese pizza seems to do less damage for me than pizza with a lot of toppings. I think it must be the salt content.
135. Chips at a BBQ last night is what did that. I only had a few and didn’t feel like I really overate at all. But the fact that there is always fatty, salty foods at a BBQ doesn’t help. I was weighing a couple of pounds less than that in the middle of last week.
But… I don’t care right now ’cause it is FINALLY sunny in Washington. Woohoo! You should have see the red burns on white skin at the beach on Saturday. Eeeew! Not a pretty sight.
-
Oh dear. What is it with pizza? We’re planning a take-away pizza on Friday! (I can’t remember the last time… it’s a treat.) And why is salt a problem? Does drinking plenty of water flush it out? …Somebody… Please enlighten me.
-
Julie, drinking 2 gallons of water doesn’t seem to immediately flush it out…for me at least. After I have pizza…only a couple pieces mind you it takes a few days to get back down to where I was. I agree with Anita about the toppings though however even cheese pizza seems to do it to me…just not as bad. My suggestion would be that if you are planning on pizza then have your pizza if you must. If not having a piece will send you spiralling in the wrong direction then by all means have a piece with a big ole salad. IF HAVING PIZZA WILL SET YOU BACK AND MAKE YOU START CRAVING BAD FOR YOU STUFF ALL THE TIME THEN DON’T EVEN TAKE A BITE. Yep, talking from personal experience here.
-
Hi all!
So I didn’t official get to weigh this week. I was sick half the weekend and in a wedding for the rest of it, so not much time to do anything.
I think I’m about the same, but I definitely wasn’t eating on plan, so no telling what this week will be like.
Hope all is well with you. I only have 1 day of summer school teaching left. Woo hoo!!! -
We love you boo!

I was at 213.4 this morning
That’s down from 217 last week. I haven’t been particularly good or bad, I think it’s just that the side effects from the meds are beginning to settle down a bit. -
Hi Debs! That’s great! Woo hoo!
I’m not looking forward to weigh in today.
-
Chin up Cristina, this is a new week and a new start. You can do it.
-
200/186.2/180 (stg)
Up 1.2 from 2 weeks ago. I haven’t been particularly trying hard to be good, so that’s not a surprise. I’m feeling better mentally, though still quite tired. I’m going to try a bit harder to eat well.
-
Still somewhere between 129-130…
-
134. No change. I’m trying to get a new perspective. You guys are all doing great! Keep it up! Weight loss or not, you all are encouraging me by not giving up. Thanks.
-
Christina, what time did u wake up??? I know you’re in Central Time here in TX like me!
Well I’m down about a pound and a half. Not for sure cause the scale gave me every even # between 222 and 223.4. But I’m down, so that’s a step in the right direction. And that’s even w/ me not being overly strict w/ myself, so that just shows ya how much junk i was eating!
-
oh, and i’m also weighing in two weeks in a row and that’s also an improvement for me!
-
Hi DebbieBoo! I was up at 5:30. Actually that’s late for me, I’m usually up at 4:30 but on Monday’s I work from home and I don’t work out until I drop my daughter off at school, so I get an extra hour.
Good to see you here 2 weeks in a row!
And I loved your pic with the mask!
-
I’m at 191.6 today. I’ll take it…I’ve been out of town 2 weekends in a row.
On 6/12, I had my final weigh in for the biggest loser competition at the gym and I weighed in at 189.5. So I’m up 2lbs from that. I’ll be working on shedding that this week.
By the way, I came in at #6 out of 42 in the competition!
-
Woo-hoo Cristina, that’s awesome. Well done you on the competition.
I’m sure you’ll get that 2lb off soon.
Just stay away from the cookie doughBoo, good to see you
-
181. That’s up 1. Oops.
-
down 1…finally broke through 137..
168/136/125 -
Thanks Debs..for posting my comment….I was up by 5:00 this morning to feed the baby, but alas…no scale….when I logged in this afternoon to see if my comment had been posted, I literally rushed over to my mother’s house to weigh myself, which to my dismay, was locked!! Soooooo…no weight, although I do feel pretty much the same…HEAVY! I am going to wait for my baby’s next feeding to go out and buy a scale (My goal for the day!!:))It’s right after his feedings when I feel the most comfortable going anywhere…At least I know he has been changed, fed, and burped….plus he usually falls asleep right after…which should make for a better shopping experience!
-
Still no change. Better then gain I guess. I just really need to get back on track. I’m doing better then I was but I’m waaaaay off from plan. idk. a new week and so far today i’m doing well.
-
168.6 UP ABOUT 3
Sorry caps lock on by mistake
Not panicking too much as still only just above goal
Too tired to write more but glad to see you all weighing in (Bekki and Boo especailly )and welcome to Claudia -
180 — I’m down 2.5 from last week.
-
120
Love to all of you! -
Am down 3 again this morning (Tuesday) back to last weeks weight. I think that’s strange - suppose it must be to do with water. By the way I don’t usually weigh everyday but just happened to get on the scales again this am and thought I would comment as it seems odd to me.
Weigh to go Bird. -
Thanks, Elly.
-
Finally have a scale…weighed in this morning(Tuesday)….am over a huge hump….weighed in at 169.5!!!!Woo hoo!! Over a pretty big hurtle….have weighed between 170-180 for more than two years….I hope I can keep it up!!!!
-
I finally weighed myself…down 6 pounds since I was weighed at the doctor’s office 2 1/2 weeks ago….finally over a huge bump…was weighing 175-180 forever…finally down to 169.5. 30 pounds left!!!
-
Thanks for the welcome Elly!! Good to be among this awesome support!!
Monday 16 June 2008
It's Monday
It’s Monday!
Blest/Debs…I didn’t see a post for Monday’s weigh in, so I took it upon myself to post. I hope I didn’t step on any toes. Please feel free to edit and add the pic.

Oooh! Well, I guess we’ll forgive you if you weigh in right away
-
Ok, this morning I was 217.
(well, that was the modal reading, anyway)
It’s been a hard week. I’ve been struggling with depression, and wacky side effects from the drugs I’m taking. Today things are feeling a bit brigher. Life feels like it’s worth living, and although I’m tired, I did get 6 hours sleep last night, which is way more than I’ve had any of the last 4 nights. I’ll just keep plodding.
-
Oh, and report back on how the gym thing went…
-
Apparently, the rss feed is no longer working… Bloglines says June 4 was the last update. So… I switched to the atom feed.
Up again to 134. I suppose it’s due to bad snacking and lack of sleep. Must become more aware of what I am eating and how much I’m exercising!
-
Executive Decision…Since I did the post for the weigh in this week, I say I’m exempt from weighing in this week.
Remember, I was out of town Thursday-Sunday and I ate semi-bad. So, I’m afraid to weigh in and see the damage. I did work out Thursday before I left and I worked out at the hotel gym Friday and Saturday and I did my best with ordering healthy meals when we ate out but sometimes it’s wasn’t possible.
So, this week I’m back on plan and I’ll weigh in next week.
In the meantime, I did not win the Biggest Loser competition at the gym but I was happy with my results.
I weighed in at 189.5
Since March 4th…
-3.1 body fat%
-1″ right arm
-1.5″ left arm
-2.5″ right thigh
-3.5″ left thigh
-4.5″ chest
-5.75″ waist
-3.75″ hips
-1.25″ calf
-16.5 lbsSo, there you have it.
-
Nu-uh, go step on the scale
(And you have to listen to me, otherwise I might cry
-
But you know, whatever! I didn’t weigh in last week. Just get back on track, and it’ll be ok.
Weigh to go on the loss - weight and inches -
And even if you don’t want to weigh in officially, I’d say it’s still worth stepping on the scales and privately noting down what the damage was. That way you can look back at it next week and see how well you’ve done.
And this is experience talkingSeems like this is the week that Debs tries to surpass herself in how many times she comments on the weigh in post!
-
Ok, I did go weigh and there was a lot of damage.
Either way…I’m going to be strict with myself this week and I will reverse this damage…hopefully all this damage will be reversed by next Monday!
-
You can do it. Don’t give up.
(Hey, i’m up 10 or 11 since my last official weigh-in two weeks ago. I’m currently blaming the meds I’m on, tied with some eating the wrong stuff). I’m just working on maintaining really, and breathing, and hopefully things’ll settle down and get better in time. -
Thanks Debs!
I’m proud of you for weighing in! I’m sure the meds have a part to play in the weight gain. I just read an article in a magazine on how big of a role some meds play with our weight. So I’m sure your body is going through some changes with the meds. Just get back on track with your eating and exercising and your body will eventually get it figured out and in sync. -
With some of the wacky symptons (swelling, soreness etc) It’s either the meds, or I’m pregnant. And though I know immaculate conception worked for Mary, I’ve not convinced God’s about to do that one again
-
Thanks for posting Cristina! My parents are here, and my oldest left for camp this morning, and I had my workout to get in before we ran our to piano and….
I’m weighing in at 129.2 and a pretty solid little ball of muscle!
-
No change for me…
-
Ooops I forgot to weigh this morning. By the time I remebered I was fully dressed, and there really wasn’t time to start again and get out the house on time so I didn’t. I will weigh tomorrow and own up. I think I am up a bit. So had better get back on track.
-
no change but since af is visiting i’m sure that would be why.
-
122
good going everyone! -
182.5. And I’m a pretty solid little ball of fat.
That’s up 5.5 from when I weighed in a couple of weeks ago.
I’m calling my shot for next week:
I’ll lose at least 3 pounds or die trying. (Maybe not die trying, but this crap is getting old. I just need to limit my consumption. Especially my carb consumption. Plain and simple.)
-
So I didn’t just eat ice cream, even though I REALLY wanted to. That’s an improvement for me! AND I just finished swimming for an hour. Another improvement! And to top it all off, I’m finally weighing in again! Woo hoo!!!!
Of course all that doesn’t undo a month of eating crap.
So I’m at 224.2, which is about 9 up from my lowest, but not as high as I was a few weeks ago. Perhaps the increased exercise is helping a teeny tiny bit. Since school ended I feel a bit more energized, even though I’m still teaching summer school. So I’m a bit more motivated to stay on plan. I only had 2 good carbs today . . . plus a handful of tortilla chips. Oi! But at least it wasn’t the whole bag! And since the chips are gone, there shall be NO tortilla chips tomorrow!
-
Bird and Boo, sending you both big hugs. We are so gonna do this. BRING IT ON!

A day left after my forgetfulness yesterday but actually not too bad at all. 165.8 down 1 since last week and holding steady below goal. I have been about 4 pounds higher during this week if you believe the scales so no call to be complacent. It is helpful to keep checking in.
Have a good week all. -
I feel the love.

I’m proud of you, Boo and Bird! Keep pressing on!
And Cristina, you did great! You won a smaller bod even though you didn’t win the competition. I’m proud of you!

180. That’s down 2. More importantly for me, - it’s a whole stone since I started 9 weeks ago. Yeah!
-
Yay! Go Julie. That’s fantastic.

I’m up 3. I know it’s fluid, but it is there. We ate out last night and even though I ate the right stuff…the salt content still gets me. I am going back to phase 1 this week anyway and adding more water. I never retained water like this before…so I’m not sure why I am now, but maybe drinking more water daily will help with retention.

166…FINALLY…3 down from last week!!! Prayer does work!! And I have to say, my will power is getting better. Took the boys for some ice cream yesterday and although I was tempted, resisted and had a glass of tea instead. I hope I can keep it up. I go back to work in a couple of weeks and I need to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes.

I’m down 1lb to 188. If it weren’t for all the snacking I did this weekend, I’d probably be down another 2lbs. I have to work on that snacking bit. Hmmm….

Down 6. The stomach flu has hit our family. Si I can’t take total credit.

177.5 — down 2.5 for the week. So that takes care of the 2 I gained last week plus an extra half pound to boot. I’ll take it.

Sorry no scales - Debs has them. I am guessing she didn’t want to weigh in for some reason.
Will be good for me I think to be without scales for a few weeks. see if I can manage to maintain through holiday time
Yes we are all off to Wales on saturday for 2 weeks, that’s me, Debs, Bekki, HP and David(the daddy). I expect Debs will manage to tune in at some point via an internet cafe - she’s as addict.
Keep going girls and Bird. you can do it. Nikki hope you are all better soon.
