Was looking forward to going out to dinner with friends Fri. night and dreading it at the same time. Was going to move my weigh-in from Sat. to Friday. It turns out dinner was canceled so weigh-in is Sat. again. That gives me an extra day. I'll need it this week. Ughh!

I had a slip up last night and the night before - just for my dinner meals - luckily i didn't gain any weight - so i'm trying to make up for those times the rest of this week. I still have hope for a good friday weigh in. so far this month i have lost 5.5 pounds. so i have to work hard the rest of the month to hit that 10 pounds. but i can do it! and i'll be so proud of myself when it happens. i'm keeping that in mind!

5/18 only dropped 2 pounds. It's getting harder to hit that 10 lbs month goal. Down 35 so far from the beginning but need to drop another 20+. I'm going to play out the rest of May and see how I do. I may have to make a drastic change to kick start my weight loss for June and July. Feeling great, clothes are loose, but not getting to where I need to go! Press on!

A better week this week - but I am finding way too many excuses to overindulge - "special occasions" and such. Have to remember this is for life! A pound a week (average) is OK but I want to do better!

wow so many posts i want to reply too,, so just want to say this, hey keep it up everyone, yea im fighting it too, i lose almost 10 lbs after going on the low glycemic diet that my dr wanted me to go on, so i had a bounceback from that but have been able to stablize from that and am back to losing again.

how to get the weight to drop off? gawd i wish i knew, i so want to be back down under 200 again, but still have to do things with the boys etc that may get me to eat out etc. like for lunch a few mins ago i did get a mcdouble,, 2 of the 2 oz patties, one slice of cheese with condiments and a side salad and baslamic vinagerette for the dressing with water to drink not too bad.

CONGRATS to everyone who is losing and to everyone who like me is struggling, we can do this,, even if not 10 lbs i would love 8 wink

FINALLY!!! I finally broke through the 155 plateau that has trapped me and beat the h*ll out of me for almost 10 weeks!!! Talk about a disappointing and frustrating 10 weeks!! I ate right, I exercised right, I did it all right and still I could not break through that 155 mark. I thought things were -never ever- going to move again. Then, finally, 1 pound down today to 154! Boy was I shocked! This is a new beginning of weight loss, I hope!! 1 pound down and I am a happy camper!

Weight 167
Weight loss for May (so far) -3 pounds

It does not appear likely that I will make the 10 pound goal. BUT the important thing is that I continue to lose weight at a steady pace. Challenges like this encourage me to work out harder and to be extra diligent about what I eat. Who knows ... maybe I'll surprise myself and meet the end-of-the-month goal. I'm certainly going to try!

I weighed in at one pound heavier today even after three cardio workouts this week. I am hoping that it is water weight and will shift soon. I have been careful about my calorie intake also. Why won't the weight come off?

I have been staying within my calorie range and drinking water all week. However, I have been doing a lot of strength training, and since muscle weighs more I am afraid the scale will not reflect all of my hard work!

Good morning all!

I hope everyone has a blessed day. I had my first sand Volleyball game last night...talk about a workout. It is so much fun it doesn't even feel like a workout! I didn't make the best food choices for dinner but am hoping my workout today will even things out!


Happy THURSDAY keep up the great work!

Had a good workout on the machines at the YMCA today for a total of 90 min. I still need to do my strength exercises. I plan to do those while watching my taped episode of biggest loser or some other TV show tonight. I want to move while watching TV not just sit there. this will increase my calorie burn and make my time productive.
I was still 221 when I weighed at the YMCA today.
