Ok don't forget to weigh in! If you gain-don't forget to add something positive about your body. Good luck ladies.

CONGRATS AIMEE!

That is really good and a lot of weight since you're so little in the first place! WOW! I bet it feels sooooo good to make it into the mid-120's!

Tomorrow is my WW weigh in day, so I'm happy that falls on the 15th, haha.

Last night was weigh in and I really honestly thought that I was going to be down. My eating patterns were pretty good this past week and I almost met my goal to do some form of physical activity every day (5 out of 7 days) and I go to weigh in and step on the scale and .....

I was up 1.5lbs.

*** is going on.

Yesterday was first day of af and I pray, pray that that has something to do with it. So in the past 3 weeks I have put on 2.5lbs. Grrrrr. To some that may not seem like a big deal but I'm already carrying around A LOT of extra weight to begin with.

I'm really becoming fearful that I won't fit into my bridesmaid dress for my sisters wedding in June. And hello - look at my ticker - in 8 months we will be going to NYC and that means baby making time. I can not get pregnant at this weight...I would physically feel miserable....I already do now!

something positive about my body....I have really pretty blue eyes.

WTG Aimee on the loss - you are rockin it!!!!!

Kari, have you been taking your measurements? It might just be that you weight is shifting around and your clothes are fitting better, etc. but the muscle you've gained is retaining extra water and adding to the scale. The important thing is how you FEEL about how you're doing. Sure, getting the # lower is great too... but try to focus on how you feel. I think before any of us step on a scale we need to really assess how we feel about how we're doing... how it feels to be IN CONTROL of what we're doing and eating, if we're feeling healthier or proud of ourselves ,etc. so we can keep that in mind with whatever the scale is.

AF always always screws with my weight, so hopefully next week you'll have a big loss... have you been getting in all of your water? Weird thing, but the way to get rid of bloat and water retention... is to drink more water! The more you have the less your body stores b/c it isn't afraid you'll just cut it off... same deal with food really.

((((HUGS)))))

Can I get a drumroll? I think I need a drumroll...

I lost.... 5.6 pounds!

midnight_starr · #7 April 15th, 2008, 07:11 AM

Kari, sometimes AF does play around with your weight.. It could also be water weight or ummm like the girls have told me before its food still sitting there that hasn't left your body yet KWIM?? Last week I was up 2 lbs and this week I am down 4lbs so sometimes you're down and sometimes your up, as long as you know you're doing things right then you shouldn't beat yourself up about it!!! You will get results in due time!! Keep the good work up and we are all here to support you through your journey!!!

Shannon, way to go!! Doesn't it feel great to be back on track?

soImarriedAnerd · #8 April 15th, 2008, 11:50 AM

Aimee/Shannon Woohoos for you guys....our little WW commercial girls LOL
Kari-ditto to what shannon said...i put on a good 3lbs with AF

Ok my turn....155lbs... man i am not losing anything. But I am maintaining. Well with less then 2 months (holy cr*p) before TTC I need to drop some weight! I decided I want to be 140 by TTC (june) if I am not there by june I may just wait till i am....ok yeah right, but I will think about waitingLOL

Good job on the .6lbs! My scale is an old school one so i can't get that exact yet. I did order a travel digital scale...should get it next time i am in the states (all our christmas gifts are still in a box waiting to be opened!) We haven't been in the states since Oct. 07

lupti · #19 April 17th, 2008, 06:55 AM

this is such a bummer. LAst week, I was down a pund and a half, and this week I am up 2...sigh. Its my own fault, tho..been slacking mucho and have only gone to the gym once this week. BUT, I finally bought a stability ball and am going to atttempt to sit on it as my chair at the desk periodically throughout the day and to get some weight/core exercises in so I am not sitting on my butt doing nothing.

Costa Rica in a month, gotta get motivated

On a plus note...I am down .25" on hips and thighs, so not terribly upset

Just gotta get back in the motivation!

I am sooooo hoping you get your Playboy shoot, Angela, that would be awesome
