I'm down 1.2 lbs this week. That's weird, I noticed my ticker lost some data somewhere. I'll have to go back and figure it out and re-enter it somehow.

This week I made black eyed peas from the MWL book and they were really tasty. Even my husband, who doesn't follow the program, commented on them and asked what I put in them to make them so tasty. I just put what the ingredients called for. I recommend them to anyone if you're looking for some tasty beans.

We also got both our spoons and our scale back from our friends this week. Yay! I still can't believe your boyfriend loaned your car out lmggallagher.

Congrats on the next pant size Rosey. I went down a pant size too but I'm in a snug size 18. My size 18 Lane Bryant pants fit comfortable though and they're almost loose on me now. I can slide them over my hips without unzipping.

No change this week for me. Back to plateauville for a while, I guess.

My loss this week is 4.6 lb. I sometimes think my scale is wrong, although I got on twice this morning with the same result. It is a cheap scale for our summer cabin; I have a better one at home.

Finally I am loosing again!
Happy dancing, happy dancing!!!!

Down - 1.5

I am pretty sure it's been the thyroid drugs that my medical group is now discontinuing as they shift to another supplier! Anyway, a finally a loss after of months of killing myself trying. I didn't even get to exercise this week and I lost, yay!

Sorry, to post my long list but it really helps me track what's going on since I have been doing the weigh in group

-5.0 POUNDS LOST!!!

I'm only down 0.5, but at least it's in the right direction.
I'm back on track and starting to succeed. YEah!!

I gained weight this week - i know the culprit and will fix it for next week

I lost 1.6 lbs this week! Down to 127.4 !! 2.4 lbs away from my first goal! Once I get comfortable holding 125 I might push for 120 since I'm only 5'2 that seems like a better weight. Thanks for all the motivation here! You guys are great!

Same here, darnold. 229.6 down to 228.0 for a 1.6 LB LOSS. Woot!

And there were some days when I felt like I was overeating.

Here's to hoping I can maintain that rate. 1.5 per week would make me happy.

same old same old again.

Ya me too! Hate that! Started off the week doing Mary's mini but kind of fell off near the end! Darn .....Dlee

Down .6 lbs. Hey darnold I'm also at 127.4 but I'm an inch taller then you. Shooting for 120 myself although right now I would be happy to start hitting the 125 mark. It has been such a struggle to stay below 130. Have not been in the mood to cook since we moved this summer, that really threw me out of my routine

No change again this week. Too much fruit, too much pasta. Two of my favorite things. Will I EVER see 108??

FRIDAY 8/10/2012

GOAL = 108
ORIGINAL START 135
McD START = 127
LAST WEIGH IN = 121
CURRENT = 121
TOTAL DOWN = 6
FOR THE WEEK -0-

Well - I'm down 1 lb from last week!

Well, what a relief. I was afraid to weigh in, because I have had a couple of small slips in food choices this week. On the go too much, with not enough planning. I went straight back to potatoes both times, and things worked out. Even when I slipped, I stayed vegan. Just had too much added fat in my choices. I will NOT eat animal foods ever again.

I also only exercised 3 times this week, rather than the 5 times I usually do. I was really worried that I would gain.

I lost 2.7 pounds this week, for a total of 18.6 in 6 weeks.

I cannot express how shocked and thrilled I am.

Sadly, even though my clothes are looser, I have so much weight to lose that I am still in the same size. But now I am wearing the right size, instead of squeezing into one too small. LMAO

No one. Not one person, has mentioned that I have lost weight. 18.6 pounds down, and no one has noticed yet.

My next goal is to get into the 180's by the end of the month, and wear more form-fitting clothing, so somebody will validate my evidently vain side that I did not know existed. LOL

Just kidding. Thrilled to know that I am healing inside, and improving my health for a longer life.

That is what matters.
