Hold onto something when you are weighing yourself, it's good for a quick "pick me up", lol.

I got to walk to the bookstore today in the rain. That's a good 30 minute walk. But then I ate a handful of Hershey Kisses Dark Chocolate. I think I gained back all the calories I may have lost from the walk. lol!

Why thank you. I'm taking it one pound at a time. If I look at the big picture it will feel to daunting. I am not feeling overwhelmed or missing out on anything so I think that is the key. I'll get measured on Friday as well!

Welcome to my plateau, Nick! The experts say we need to lower our caloric intake and/or step up our workouts to start losing again. I have been doing that but don't see any results yet other than achy muscles. My plan is to just keep doing the right things most of the time. Great job, Jasper! You really are an inspiration.

Congrats Jasper and Escapee!! Thanks Mak ... good plan! I figure eventually it all has to come off right? I'm eating healthy and walking. Today I walked 20 minutes in a drizzle ... it felt good to get out! :o))

This way I get to do both. I get all the online tracking benefits as well as the benefits of meetings. You all should check out the WW website www.weightwatchers.com I am doing the monthly pass.

I wish losing weight was easy as quitting smoking! I swear the harder I try to lose the hungrier I am. I suck

for everyone Kady good luck on your weigh in today. I had mine yesterday. I lost 1.8 pounds which now brings me to exactly 38 pounds. Then I promptly came home and ate and ate and ate. I don't what got into me yesterday. Jasper, I have to do the same thing. One pound at a time. If I don't I get overwhelmed and think it is never going to happen. Then I know me, as long as I think it isn't going to happen I might as well eat everything in sight. Nick that is what I need to do is add walking to my routine. I have the thread mill sitting right behind me in it's folded up position. I have two reasons I keep it folded up. First is my dad said something about using it. I don't want him on it. He can barely walk on the floor as it is. He don't need a moving belt under him. Second is my daughters nurse said something about she wanted to use it . Ummm no. One is she is here to take care of my daughter not lose weight, she can do that on her own time. Of course she still does sit ups in my living room. Next is I don't want the liability if something was to happen. I have yet to come with a good excuse for why I don't use it when dad is in bed and the nurse isn't here . Pamy, quiting smoking is huge. Just pace yourself there is plenty of time to lose weight.

WW online is really amazing. You get everything, track everything, and you can still go weigh in and have the support of the group. I still say WW is AA for eataholics.

Ok, so like mentioned above, let's log in our weights just like we log our exercise. BUT, let's keep the conversation going too. Previous Weight: Current Weight: 158 (estimating high, we'll see Saturday) Weight Loss: 0

previous weight:12/3/2007 157.6 Today's: 154.2 Total loss: 3.4 (maybe I lost that much a couple of diff times, but who's counting) Escapee, I will only post my losses after 154.2, so say I gain 3 lbs, well I will not post my loss until it surpasses that 3 lb gain.

oh hell vacanick, i'll be brave... starting weight: 8/9/2007 277 today: 226 total loss: 51 i do my official weigh in every 2 weeks, so that is when i'll post. my favorite food is pizza so i made a deal with myself. if i had lost weight, i would stop at sams club and get one of their giant pizzas and bring home. i usually eat 2 slices but for some reason my dh and ds had left 3, so i ate them all. wow!! i am never brave.
