Nancy | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 05:04 am     sending looser vibed to everyone! Hope you weight-loss week went well..mine i think went not so well..not because i ate badly but i'm retaining water..(uggghhh) but i know tht will slip off next week...plus my sizes have gone down sooo much in clothing that a tiny gain won't get me down... good luck everyone :-) |
Weinermr | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 11:24 am     Hi Nancy and gang, I had another successful week, although not as successful as I had hoped. It has been exactly 6 weeks and I've lost 12 pounds. Still an average of 2 lbs a week. I was sick this past week, and took tylenol, and that kind of altered my system (for lack of a better term) although I have stuck to my diet through thick and thin. I intend to start walking again, and that should raise my weight loss back up to the (at least) 2 lb a week pace that I would like to be on. 5 lbs every two weeks is what I REALLY want to be doing, but I know walking is vital to that goal for me. How is everyone else doing? |
Nancy | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 11:29 am     well right now i'm sitting in a sauna at work(not relly but it feels like it) as the a.c is broken and its literally 90 degrees INSIDE and 88 outside! |
Bob2112 | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 11:38 am     My diet has stuck to me through thick and thicker! I did purchase a new battery for my scale, so I did accomplish one of my goals this week. Status quo for me on the weight, but at least I have not gained in 3 weeks. I added my 0 miles to the exercise total and hope to increase that in the coming week. Following weinermr's lead (Hi Mr W., miss you around the boards) I hope to increase my non-losses from 0 pounds over 3 weeks to 0 pounds each week. Then I'll be set for some non-zero losses. See ya next week, loosers!  |
Julieboo | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 11:42 am     Bob, what's a looser?  |
Tess | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 12:03 pm     Looser is what Bob hopes his square pants will be if he has a non-zero week. Weiner and Nancy, you are doing fantastic! Yay for you!! I wish these HG's would go to bed earlier. I do fine all day and then the hg's are up later and later every night while I'm snacking away trying to stay awake. Who'd ever think they'd find a group that stays up later than I do? |
Weinermr | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 02:31 pm     Bob, I would like to know if you lose weight do you become more squarish and less rectangular, or how does that work? I can see the problem though, being a sponge you would tend to absorb everything. What you need is someone to wring you out. Wishing you good luck on your goals - I'm glad you are zeroing in on them. (but seriously I wish you all the luck in the world) |
Julieboo | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 02:57 pm     Then he's Bob BuffPants!!!! |
Tess | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 03:51 pm     But right now he's SpongeBobPillowPants over on the couch. |
Nancy | Tuesday, July 23, 2002 - 07:16 pm     lol you guys--i had a bad weigh-in tonight(although i knew i would from my home scale)...i gained 1.8 lbs ouch!! but its still 26 lbs in 17 weeks and since i'm retaining water(time of the month) that will disappear next week :0 |
Webkitty | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 07:58 am     I lost 2 pounds! This is the first time in 3 months I have had any weight loss. I guess what everyone was saying about muscle replacing fat was true, because I am down 1 size. I have a small bone frame so 2 lbs is happy dance time for me. Now off to work out......... {{encouragement to everyone else}} |
Nancy | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 10:28 am     yehhhh Webkitty that's awesome---i think that i've lost close to weight i gained this past week--(it was fluid retention mostly)--tuesday will tell for sure---i'll hit the cross-trainer later--and go to the gym tomorrow and/or monday-- |
Pamy | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 01:31 pm     I started a weight loss program today! I have gained 20lb in the last 2 yrs(living too much of the good life! and not watching what I was eating)My goal is to lose 20lbs by next sat!! haha, hopefully within 4-6mo. Good luck everyone!!
 |
Nancy | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 06:25 pm     good luck pam--you can do it it took me roughly 3 months to loose 20 lbs.. :-) |
Pamy | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 08:22 pm     Thanks Nancy! WOW!! Good for you!!

Yuhuru | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:49 pm     I thought I come back and check in on you guys. I'm glad to see you're sticking with it. Way to go Nancy! I'll be back after the baby's born in January. I've already gain back (and then some) what I lost in weight watchers, but I've got a great reason. |
Nancy | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 06:42 pm     hi yuhuru yes you do!! i lost another 4.2 this week for a total of 30.2 lbs in 18 weeks :-) |
Nancy | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 04:35 pm     hey did i scare everyone away? i hope not--snifff not even a yeah for me (just teasing) |
Schoolmarm | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 04:50 pm     Congrats Yuhuru and YIPPEE, Nancy! I need to join this thread...I was quite the dumpling in movement/dance class in Salzburg. Fooey! I was just hoping that the ten pounds that I gained finishing my dissertation would just dissapear when I mailed the dissertation off. HA HA HA At least I came back from Europe 4 pounds lighter that I left. I'll go for Bob's "zero" weeks to start. I've already started walking more. I haven't driven since Monday! |
Nancy | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 05:14 pm     hahaha marm--kind of like birthing a baby(your book).... i bet you did a lot of walking in eurpoe--i know i walked tons in england last year :-) |
Tess | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 09:35 pm     YAY, Nancy! |
Juju2bigdog | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:15 am     Nancy, I don't think it is so much that your cheerleaders have fled as it is that the number of BB threads is overwhelming everybody. Congratulations, Nancy!!!
