Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

Wow, I need to get off this computer and go...lol. But, here's my quick update!

I am not weighing till Monday. I decided to wait a week until Monday weigh-in. Wow, that has been hard. I feel like I have been gaining weight everyday. Maybe that's why I like weighing everyday.

I think a part of it is psychological because I am allowing nuts this week. But, I haven't gone crazy with the nuts. I can't, they're never here long enough. I buy them and their gone as fast as I buy them because dear BF eats them. I guess that's because I don't keep any other snack foods around - poor thing...lol! I'm laughing as I think about it, but he really doesn't keep anything around here that he can munch on that he enjoys eating. I have all sorts of low carb snack foods, so, he isn't starving! Oh well, he'll get healthier too - can't beat that! he's a handsome guy... I love that he'll be healthier! I keep lots of fruit for him (smile)!

Goal today : Stairs... something for arms.... and find that Body for life
book!!!

Silly... I've had sort of a lazy week week this WOE... I'm getting serious again today. Maybe no nuts? I'll see how weigh-in goes on Monday. But, I feel like my tummy is a little bigger today

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

Hi Cher! Yeah, those nuts huh? I didn't eat mine last night because DH didn't get home until 7:45 and I waited for him to have dinner and didn't want to eat the nuts so late. Did it make a difference? NO, still 150.

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

Wow, where did everyone go? Do you guys realize it's been 12 days since I've lost anything. That's excessive, no?

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

hey-- I am here. I bet it is discouraging SIlly, BUT-- you are sooo close to goal; I am guessing that is why it is slower. Geesh, I lsot over 14 pounds on induction, I would love to continue to lose at that rate. Iwould be done already...

I am so thinking about doing induction again. Something to speed up my weight loss. But, right now I have bigger fish to fry-- like beating this heat and humididty, and eating enough to keep my metabolism firing. I guess I ahve basically been doing induction the last few days anyway.

It will happend Silly-- I see a woosh coming your way-- then you will be at goal!!

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

thanks bjs! Do you really think you should go back to induction for real? Are you eating better today. You pretty much have been doing induction, but maybe tomorrow you will feel like eating more! I know I'm close to goal, but keep in mind 6 months ago I was at goal! Oh my....I will keep plugging away!

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

Silly,

Did I miss this in your journal? You said 6 months ago you were at goal. What do you think was the difference between 6 months ago and today?

What are you eating that's different? Are you eating less? more? Just wondering?

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

I have had some grape tomatoes today, and a few meatballs. It was 4 ish before I even ate. So I guess I am not eating as I should...But, not losing as I should either. Tomorrow I will have to kick it up. I promise....

Heading to camp tomorrow and then to a cook out Sunday with family here from PA. So I will find something appealing.

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

bjs - it is a really good picture - your hubby is right! You can tell you've lost more weight!...

Now where did that Silly go...lol

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

It was son Cher-- that is the funny part. He is right behind me, as is hubby for my weight loss. He came home from church tonight (son) and said " I am hungry can I get a snack" I said "sure", he said" We didnt have a good snack at church tonight, it was sugar coated candies, i told them I was dieting, and don't eat sugar". So they gave me a prize.

I just worry about him saying that. I dont want my WOE eating to make him have self image issues. But, I was actually proud, and I don't see a problem. He has always been a label reader. health has always been a BIG issue for me, even before being overweight I was a health food nut. So, I have always encouraged good eating habits. I guess I just worry about how others perceive it...


I know Silly calls us out to play-- and she goes away...hmm

I jsut had some chicken cheese and msuhrooms. Tomorrow I just need to convince myself to eat earlier on. But, I am getting back to eating...SLowly....

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

I'm sorry, I'm here and you guys are probably gone!

Cher: My dad has had major health problems which started in January. he had a succession of horrible stuff and was hospitalized twice for 5 weeks each time. I spent many hours with him and my eating went by the wayside for a few months because it was all I could do to get thru the day. Anyway, he's home now, things aren't as bad as they were and I wanted to be back in control of my eating. I've been back at this actually since 3/1/06, but I only gained about 8 pounds or so during my hiatus! So 6 months ago I was not AT goal, but near close!

bjs, I like your new pic too! I sure hope you are able to eat tomorrow, I'm worried about you!

I just made a promise to a certain pester-queen by the name of jimmie, that I would start walking tomorrow for exercise. Maybe that will kick these last 5 into gear!

Re: Lose 10 pounds extended to 7/4

That might do it Silly-- If excersise isnt part of your daily regime it may be just what you need.

I am wondering what I can possibly do to kick my excersise up. I have considered jogging again, it would be against Dr advice due to recurrent stress fractures. I tried a lunge/ squat video and tore my quad. Man... I dunno...

Cher-- how was the spa???
