Joy - drink lots of water to flush your system, do induction for three days and you'll be fine. Just make sure you jump back on program, that's the main thing. It's nice that we have a place to confess and just let it go. Today's a new day

Silly - I told you you'd lose a pound today - Don't worry, the weight loss will hold until tomorrow... like you told me... Change your siggy

YaY Silly... WhoHoo

I saw my girlfriend yesterday. She's seen both the drastic weight gain and now this recent weight loss. She said she couldn't believe how different I look in just the last couple of weeks. Dear BF said I could stop losing weigh now AGAIN. I showed him the chart in Fitday and explained why it is important that I reach at least the middle of the healthy weight category for health reasons.

THEN, I plugged his weight into Fitday, and guess what, he wasn't too happy with what it said...lol, and I was in shock. He looks great to me! If he was as thin as Fitday says he should he could wear my clothes... WoW! Oh Well!

Loana - glad you're back on track. Don't worry about the scale right now. I know all of us want to be down 10 pounds by Father's day. But we've turned into a really great support group, it's more about the support and that we tried than the actual numbers. If we make it there great. But, I will be happy that I've had such a great group of woman that I've gotten to know along the way. We WILL all reach our goal weight if we just stay on track sooner or later. By the end of the year we will all look back and wonder where our weight went!

Kitty - how are you doing today?

God, I can't type today

**cypressgirl** · June 3, 2006, 12:24 PM

Well, I am back! I am doing this post on the fly so I will have to review all I have missed when I can actually sit down on Monday! I will pop over to journals and post there real quick! No way I am going to make the goal but I am relieved to say that I am 154 on the post vacation weigh in so no damage done...and boy did we have a strange vacation. Anyway, I really missed you all and can't wait to get back into the swing of things around here this coming week!

Enjoy what's left of your weekend! (((((hugs))))

Welcome back cypress!

It's okay Valid! Just keep right on going! You can do this!

sillygirl - Congrats on losing that pesky pound! It finally had to let go of you, huh? Don't be nervous - it's still possible. Even if you just do your best, you'll be pretty damn close anyway.

Remember to move - getting your heart rate up really helps the pounds come off, and drink that water!

Cher - Doesn't it feel great to have other people comment on your weight loss? My mother didn't say anything when I went home, but at that point I had only been on induction for 4 days. I'm going home in September and want to completely shock her!

You're lucky to have a supportive boyfriend. Sweet that he says you can stop now, but if you feel like going, by all means, keep going. His jaw will drop!

I weighed in at 164.5 this morning... then drank a few swigs of water and gained a pound... lol. But I totally dismiss that, and anything I consume during the day... what matters is what the scale says consistently from day to day.

My waist, according to the measuring tape, has gone from 34.5 to 32.5. My abdomen (across the belly button) went from 40 to 36. I feel great. I feel healthy. I feel motivated. I love this WoE!

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Kittie that's so wonderful. Geez, by September your Mom better be shocked at the changes in ya!

Cher, hope you're having fun in SB!

Jennifer - Glad to have you back on-line. It's really nice to know that you made it home from vacation without any major damage, that can be a great time to just pig out...lol. Great job!

Kitty - Congratulations on that 2 inch waist loss...wow, wasn't that nice to see. The 4 inch loss from your abdomen was just incredible! I would feel great waking up to those losses today!

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Darn it, darn it, darn it. 152.5 today, so I gained 1.5 pounds overnight. I'm not freaking out because I only ate 1700 calories yesterday and I know fully well a pound is 3500 calories!!!! Probably water as it is very warm again today! Water, Water, Water!

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Water weight gain is evil. And I believe that's what it is. I'm stagnating too... ever since I upped my water intake yesterday, my weight has been fluctuating back and forth about 1.5 pounds. Also had to turn my AC off... because the thing broke down... so it's very humid in here.

**sillygirl** · June 4, 2006, 08:56 AM

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Hi Kittie! Yeah, I honestly owe it to the heat, even though I drank 80oz of water yesterday. I've just started my 2nd glass what will be 32oz so far today. I need to lose 3 pounds each week until the end of this challenge and I'm a tad bummed that it doesn't seem possible for me, but stranger things have happened! Stay cool!

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Man, ok time to check in.. It has been awile...Sine my hectic last Monday... The week hasnt gone much better. I havent been totally on plan all week. That one cheat sent me in a downward spiral. I weighed today, despite some factors out of my control,TOM, and others. I have gained back the 4 #'S I have lost on this challenge. I am going on strict induction, starting tomorrow.. I am sure I will quickly drop some pounds. I hope..

Will see how the week goes.. I haven't done any excersise besides my crunches. Was even too sick to go to PT this past week, so That is 2 hrs I dint work out.. I am heading out of state Thurs and Fri for medical appts in Boston. So I hope I will stay on track during my travels.. But eatin on plan seem sso easy when eating out, vs being home and having all kinds of guilty pleasures on hand. Now, if I can jsut stay away from Bertucci's my fav plavce to eat when in Boston, I will be fine..

Thursday is my 10 year wedding anniversary, I was worried about the drinking and celebrating, but hubby is working and I will be out of state with my mom... SO.. it will be easier, although I guess I could celebrate with out him ...hehe

Hope you all have a great week.
