Weekly Weigh-In

Well, I finally lost a couple of pounds. I didn't change anything. If anything, ate a little more this week, what with Christmas cookies all over the house and everything.

Hi Harold

Congratulations.

I weighed in last wednesday . But could not post it . I forgot my a/c pwd :-)) I was 129.4 last wednesday. Finally I was in 120's.

But the sad part is I pigged out for next 3 days ( parties, festivus, and what not all coming in the same week). Tomorrow is my official weigh in day and I would be more than happy if I haven't gain any weight.

Cheers and Happy Holidays.

Normally, I would weigh on Mondays at WW, but I no longer have that option and I also was on the road to my uncle's funeral. I am relieved to say that I "maintained" at 160. Several times last week I was at 158, but because of the funeral etc. (on the road, eating out, no time to work in a workout), I just did the best I could when I could. I've got this last 10 pounds I want to shed, and I am determined to get there. Congrats, Ivamae, for your 1 pound loss. I hope I have a loss to report next week!

Hello, I'd like to join in too, if I may. I like accountability! I was a normal weight for most of my life before starting on the dreaded prednisone(steroid) for asthma control. I was allergic to most inhalers and this was the only option at the time. I gained a LOT of weight, became sluggish and sedentary. The only thing under control was my asthma. My family doc saw how miserable I was (and how FAT!!) and took pity on me. We decided to get my allergies under control and see if my asthma was helped. I weaned off the prednisone last fall and the weight started coming off.(about 50 lbs!)The next 20 Lbs did NOT melt off; they were hard work! I have 11 more to reach my original goal of 138, but have decided to reach for 135 to give myself some "wiggle room". The last few weeks, I have continued to write down every morsel using Fitday.com. I eat on the low calorie side of a weight watcher's type plan, very balanced, lots of fruits and veggies, lean meat etc.for a week or so, then back to "maintenance mode". My metabolism is in great shape now and the rest of me is getting there little by little. I don't weigh every week, and am allowing myself till late August to reach my original goal. That's less than a Lb a week. I don't feel deprived at all, as I plan my little splurges to fit right into my program. Exercise was the bane of my existence for awhile : ) I HATE the gym! And, for a long time, I had NO ENERGY at all. I was a real slug. But I bought a treadmill, a stand to turn a second hand bike into a stationery machine, some free weights and some dance DVDs, turning my garage into a gym-at-home. Now I use it most every day. Also, as I have gotten healthier, I have gotten MUCH MORE physically active, took up kayaking, walking, biking, park at the far end of all parking lots and always take the stairs. I have enjoyed luking and reading what works for everybody.(Hi Harold, Iva Mae, Wodka!) I thought it was time to join in. While everyone is different, I don't like fad diets and this is what is working for ME. Tikanis 149/0/138 (or 135)

No Weekly Weigh in this week????
Q

Good morning, and happy Saturday! Down 2.5 lbs at today's check in, so I am right on track. I want to do these last lbs slowly, but surely. Haven't felt deprived at all. A review of my food record shows that I've eaten a bit too much bread, albeit whole grain, (I never met a piece of bread that I didn't like!)so I will adjust accordingly. I won't weigh again for a few weeks. Don't know what I'd do without fitday to help me keep track! Have a nice weekend!

Weekly Weigh-In Anyone??
Q
Comments (7)
Sounds good to me. I have been posting on the Daily Supportand that is great but do like the weekly weigh in too. I weighed 148 this morning. That is back to where I was when I guess I cheated too much. I would like to be 135 or 140 but the cardiologist doesn't want me to lose more than I am now. We'll see what happens. Slow and easy is the way to go. I started at 192 after gaining so much on prednisone. To-day is my 80th birthday but I showed my son and his friend that I can still touch my toes. I'm proud of that. I try to walk about 1 km a day, walking the dog, with my walker. Lots of fun. Let's make this thread work!!! Hope to see lots of new faces here. Has anyone invited frinds from the Kitchen Table? ivamae

Well, I am not a happy camper this morning. My weight went up a pound and a half this past week. I know part of that is due to the fact I could not get out and walk. And I know I did eat a few more calories. Shame Iva, shame!!!!!
Weight this morning was 164

Can I join in?

I joined WWers on-line 2 years ago this Feb. I lost 57 pounds and then I dropped my membership. It was a bad thing to do, because once I stopped tracking, I began to gain slowly. I have gained 20 pounds back and even tho it is only 2 days until Christmas, I have re-upped with WWers. I now weight-in at 175. I am 69 years old and inactive.

Sure, Dody. You're more than welcome. Well, that seems to be a common story - losing the weight then gaining it back. So you're not alone there.

Hello. Weighing in a little late. I hope everybody had a merry Christmas. I managed to eke out a 1 pound loss this week, in spite of all the cookies and two Christmas dinners, one on Christmas and one the day after.

Didn't do too well over Christmas, at least I did not gain. Yesterday, Hubby & I went thru the cupboards and frig and got rid of any tempting foods. Was on track all day yesterday. Hope to continue today. We have to take a sister to the hospital for tests today, so I will pack a bag of cheerios for a snack. If we eat in the cafeteria, I will have no trouble getting what I want to eat. Will be a long day.

Well, I weighed this morning and neither lost nor gained. I haven't been able to get enough exercise and haven't watched the calories quite as closely over the holiday. I still weigh 164
Hope I do better next week. I do want to get down to 150 even though the Dr. said the present weight is good.

Good luck everyone. May we all do well in 2010.

Jasmi, Ivamae, Dody,

It looks like we all held our own this week. That's a major victory considering it was the Christmas holidays.
