Weekly Weigh In
 

Anybody want to join me on a weekly Monday weigh-in?! It may help us/me with accountability. I'll start. I got on the scales this morning and have lost 1 pound since last Monday. :hyper: I'll let you know next Monday how I did.

Haven't lost any weight. Got sick for a couple of days, and ate poorly. (Including a pint of ice cream!)

BUT, I'm feeling great now, rode bike 35 minutes today and walked another 35 minutes. I'm committed to exercising every day this week.

:idea: Great idea Piano! I'm with you! :yay:

I only started SP a few days ago though.

Today my weight is 155 lbs... but I think my weight-loss is due to illness : I've been pretty sick the last 2 days, lying in bed with fever, and sweat a lot, so I must have lost a lot of water.
I'm glad I'm better now!


See ya here next monday!

I'll join you, Piano. I am starting SP today again and I need to see just how I'm getting on. It won't worry me to get on the scale but it will be good to keep me on track. I had been weighing every Monday, anyway, but having to say how I've done will force me to take note too.

Yesterday I weighed 165.8 (just under 12 stone). Having said I won't worry, I think I will fall into a huge depression if I climb up to 12 stone (166)after all my efforts, so I do need someone working with me :D

Thanks
Judy

I'm glad you all are joining me. Of course healing first is more important, but the extra motivation of accountability may help.

Piano :wave:

Just weighed in for the week and I am down one pound.

The best thing is: I am feeling better!!!!

Okay, Piano, I'll join you, but only if I can have my weigh in be on Wednesdays. I usually need some time to recover from the weekends! :rolleyes:

Carpathia, Wednesdays is fine. Whatever floats your boat!

I think it is a great idea for those who care to. With myself, middle age hormonal shifts, hypothyroidism, and occasional non-compliance ( :D sounds more impressive than plain 'ole' cheating) my weekly posting would seem like the movie 'Groundhog Day' and bore every one. I do remember to update my info (to the left) on the rare occasion that I lose a lb.

I find that I have over the last several years, personally, that weighing daily has been very educational and helpful though in showing me how my body and the scales function. It isn't as scarey anymore.

Now that it is warm weather where I live I am hoping that I can start being more conscientious of what I should be doing to heal and hopefully shed the last 10 lbs. Hope springs eternal! I have been going over the book again and thinking maybe I should be watching saturated fats a little more carefully.

I will be lurking on this thread though. I enjoy reading of all the various thoughts and ideas written into the information to the left of our postings. Shows a lot of individuality here. Also so many interested in the long term future is something I respect.

Piano, How about Thursdays? :rolleyes:

I weighed myself today and was back up to starting weight. Oh well, I guess that's what Dr. S. calls healing.

I'm not panicking bc I measured too and have lost according to my tape measure! :thup:

Slow loser here!
 

Rosarugosa ~ I totally am in the same boat as you. I've lost 7 lbs on TSP but it's taken 2 months and I haven't weighed myself lately. Also perimenopausal, hypothyryoid, and occasionally cheat (I like how you described it better, LOL)! so even weighing once a week can be depressing.

But I will eventually weigh and let yall know and will lend support to all you brave weekly weighers!

Carpathia, CONGRATULATIONS on losing inches. I'd rather lose inches anyday.

Piano

Thanks for putting into perspective, Piano! :) I was actually down a pound and a half today, so now I'm losing weight and inches!

Carolyn

I am joining you guys but today is friday :daze: this week I lost 1lb and that it very suprising since I cheated all week. I will do better this week! :wave:

from 277.5 to 276.5 yeah!!! :thup:
take care everyone and have a great weekend! :wave:

Hey, it's actually working!
 

From 180.5 to 177.5.

I'm surprised!

I'm finding it hard to eat as much as I'm "supposed" to. But I am _loving_ eating a salad with half an avocado on it for lunch. :D

p.s. this was despite cheating with 2 slices of cake (work party) and a snickers bar (forgot to pack lunch) this week.
