Ugh, i could go to the nurse's office here at work and weigh myself. Plus it's a heck of walk to go, sooo good exercise. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug!

weegegirl 2 #104 January 10, 2005 Man! I stink at this weight loss thing. I think I gained about 2 pounds this weekend! It was my brother and his wife's last weekend in the USA for another year, so they went nuts. They made lobster one night and fillet mignon the next. On Saturday, we drank wine from 2pm till 2am. And I snacked ALL DAY! It was paradise!!! Okay, okay, okay... soooooooooon I will start taking all of this seriously. I only need to drop about 10 though, so no biggie.

Ugh, i could go to the nurse's office here at work and weigh myself. Plus it's a heck of walk to go, sooo good exercise. I walk right by the base hospital on the way to work - it's also where the only NON-screwed up scale on base is, so I stop off and weigh myself every couple weeks (well, every week, now). I guess I need to just buy my own scale....Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #108 January 10, 2005 Started January 4, so after 6 days: 213/214/185/+1 Bodyfat is at 19, though, so I think it's just water from this awful cold I have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladyskydiver 0 #109 January 10, 2005 I refuse to weigh myself today. I used to be anorexic so getting on a scale is bad enough once a week. Twice a week isn't going to happen. And I will miss this Friday's check-in as I'll be in Florida in a tunnel and then jumping. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Breezejunky 0 #110 January 10, 2005 Yep, feel good that I didn't gain even if I didn't lose. Did a great sloth imitation this weekend so I'm pleased. I've got 4 whole days to move that scale down 185/180/160/0 Start/current/goal/lost since last weigh-in This will be how I'm recording my numbers from now on. Hey, any chance we make Mondays the Fat Bastard check-in for those of us who want to make this more fun? The Weight Lost Challenge just sounds like every other gruelling weight loss thing I've done my whole life and I was really looking forward to being part of a proud and boisterous group of determined fun people who aren't afraid to laugh at themselves while trying to better themselves. No biggy really. Just wish we could give PC a rest and just have fun. Like I said before, I felt kind of liberated poking fun at myself in a group of people who all feel they need to drop a few pounds. If a skinny person called me a fat bastard, yes, I might take offense but when we are all in the same boat, (to varying degrees) why would it bother anyone?

tigra 0 #111 January 10, 2005 Fat Bastard/ Weight Loss Challenge- whatever you want to call it, I'm hoping it will result in group motivation and help keep me on track. I need all the help I can get, especially during the first couple of weeks. Personally, I kind of liked the Fat Bastard thing, but I understand where some people might not, so that's cool! Monday check-ins should hopefully keep us "honest" over the weekend and Fridays should give a more realistic picture of what's going on. Just my thoughts.

mnealtx 0 #112 January 10, 2005 Definitely to each their own...if twice a week helps them stick to their diets better, more power to them! Just ordered a digital scale... we'll see how long it takes to get here...Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigra 0 #113 January 10, 2005 Costco had the Tanita body fat monitor scale for $29.99. I've already got a decent digital scale and I'm not sure I want to know how FAT I really am- the mirror is bad enough- so I decided not to get one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evelyn 0 #121 January 10, 2005 I didn't gain any this week , despite adding an extra hour to my daily work out.

Deuce 1 #123 January 10, 2005 QuoteDeuce already checked in! Yeah, geeze! Up a pound. The body fat monitor thing is a great way to keep from getting angry about being hungry and exercising hard and not losing weight. It monitors the loss of fat. So instead of saying "screw it" this morning because I'm up a pound, and getting some egg mcmuffin fix, my bodyfat has stayed the same, so it's probably just water. Hoping to be below 210 by the Friday weigh in! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
