256.6 / 209.2 / 135 - down 2
I did really well last week and I think my weigh in would have been even better had AF not shown almost a week early AGAIN.

Okay, last week I was 219 but ya know I had a friendly visitor. This week I’m down to 213!!! That would be a total of 16 pounds since beginning this change of my life.

Holding pattern here……….I’ve been bouncing around within a couple pounds. Officially I’m up .8 from last week.

I’m down a pound from my upswing of last week, so total loss is back to 8 lbs.

I am officially down only 1 again — to 169 — earlier I was down to 166 so I know I can get there again!!
Thanks Blest for fixing the post. I still haven’t figured out WordPress posting yet…..

I’ve been reading OWOA for the last few weeks, and I wanted to start posting, at least on weigh-in days to keep myself accountable even though I’m not officially a member. I’m trying to lose 20 pounds through less eating and more exercise (a simple idea that’s often hard to execute, I know) — a general lifestyle change. It’s working! Here are my numbers:
145/141/125 (down 2 this week)
Thanks for being open to new post-ers!

260/249/130(240) down four. Total loss is eleven and I love those double digits finally!
It looks like a massive loss, but what it is, is everything in my body starting to go back to normal! AF has arrived, started yesterday, and in full today. I feel much more normal again.
It’s nice to see that in spite of the cravings, I was mostly trending downwards.
I am officially moving my short term goal to 240. I can’t wait to see 239! Downward and aweigh we go!

OOPS! - forgot to put mine in.
I’m down 2.
So - to start getting with the program and weighing in like everyone else… If I use my new scale - which I have now figured out weights about 7.5 lbs over the old one…
212.5/198/135
Still have a long weigh to go…but I’m so excited about the journey!

Ok, I constantly feel the need to explain things so here goes…
I got a new scale - a Tanita scale
In comparison with my old scale it is weighing me three pounds heavier.
In light of that I am making an adjustment to my weekly weigh-in numbers.
The old 160/152/135
The new 163/155/135
Either way I lost 3 more pounds this week. That is a total of 8 pounds in the past 5 weeks. I will be using the Tanita from now on because it is more accurate and even though the other weighs me lighter I am all about accuracy with this goal.
Measurements started 42/33/42
Today they are 40.5/32/41 I have lost a total of 3.5 inches. WOOHOO!!!

I’m down another pound. And that’s with spending the weekend with the family and eating like crazy.
Comment by Andrea — September 4, 2006 @ 10:06 am
By the way, my self-discipline is getting a talking to today and NO MORE eating like crazy!
Comment by Andrea — September 4, 2006 @ 10:07 am
210/187.4/140 — I’m down 2.6 for the week. I haven’t done my measurements yet so I don’t know how many inches I am down.
Ladies you are all doing great!!!
Comment by Mandi — September 4, 2006 @ 10:09 am
Okay, I’m down 6.6 for this week. It looks like a lot, but only about 4 pounds of it is due to my self-discipline, the rest is due to a stomach flu I fought all day yesterday. Not the best way to lose weight, but at least something good came of it!
Starting weight (August 2005): 333
Today’s weight: 291.8
Total loss: 41.2
This week’s loss: 6.6

147/146/129 - Lost 2 pounds this week and nice to see the PMS weight drop off. And I’m doing pretty good sticking to the exercise routine.

No change for me this week
Comment by Jana — September 4, 2006 @ 10:33 am
I’m not officially a member but I’m following you guys and using everyone as motivation. I’ve lost 10 pounds in the last 6 weeks. 1 pound from last week.
Comment by Jenny — September 4, 2006 @ 5:45 pm
I’m late, I’m late… NOT that kind of late, mind you =)
No change for me this week and I am too tired to think about how to do that formula thingy….. But, I can see a change in my body and I can feel it too. So, this week I really don’t care about the numbers.

Down another lb. Wow is this slow. DH reminds me that “it” just didn’t fly on overnight. Ugh.
Comment by Kat — September 5, 2006 @ 5:58 am
192. Up two.
Comment by Christine — September 5, 2006 @ 12:05 pm
Down 1…I think. We did not have a WW meeting this Monday because of the holiday. So, I hope that my scale is right, I would hate to throw myself off. I wasn’t going to weigh-in but since I was summoned….a-hem…here ya go.
