Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Hey everyone,

Emma...I will be posting my inches lost every 2 weeks, but will not be weighing until Thanksgiving. I've joined the No Scale Challenge, and I need to stay away from the scale for a while anyway.

Just an update..be back tomorrow!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I'm still about 3.5 lbs down...but I feel another whoosh coming on. I really hope 40 is not my carb limit this week. On the other hand, I do want to find my CCLL so I can proceed to a more formal pre-maintenance and find my carb upper limit.

Hope everyone is doing well. Net connection at home having problems. Just wanted to check in quick and say hi!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

WOOHOO I am now at my goal weight of 125. that makes me 5/5 its nice to finally get here. It sure can be hard to lose the last couple of pounds. Now the goal is to stay here. Which I have a feeling might be as hard or harder then getting here .

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

WTG Angel - so proud of you!!!

I'll get you an award sorted!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I'm a little upset this morning. We went to my parents house for the weekend and went on a picnic. I ate on plan. EVERYTHING was on plan. There was candy everywhere left over from Halloween, and my parents have carb galore in their house.

I weighed myself when I came in Sunday after breakfast and I weighed 186-187...can't remember. Anyway, this morning I thought I would *officially weigh* myself because I didn't do it on Saturday morning. The scale was up to 187 when I first woke up and then I thought~Hey! I haven't used the bathroom, yet!
And now it's back down to 186, which is much better than 187. Either way, I'm still frustrated!!! I'm eating on plan. How did I gain a pound back and will my body ever leave the 180's?!?!
Up until the 180's I was losing juuuust fine. Now I'm afraid I'll get stuck. I think it's probably because I haven't been exercising as I should. I'm going to the gym tonight and have made yet another schedule for myself. Thanks for letting me vent.

P.s. I guess the point is I haven't lost any.

[*Emma*]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Our bodies naturally fluctuate in weight, dont stress it!

Is TOM due?

I gained 5 pounds cos TOM just came to stay.... i know it will go when he leaves.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Down another pound for 4/20!

[BigB]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Congratulations to everyone on your losses. I am now down to 296lbs. So I have lost 5 of the 26lbs for the Christmas Challenge.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Emma,

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK ON THIS CHALLENGE. It's always great to come checkin and see such an active thread!

Today's my mid-year wedding anniversary. Hubby made himself a double chocolate heart cake (with my insistence that he finish cooking all the carbs in the kitchen week by week so they're not there to tempt me!) and I made more pumpkin and macadamia soup. And guess what? He liked it! He finally liked a non-meat "atkins" recipe! Can't wait to enjoy our "anniversary" dinner!

Also, I wanted to report that I stayed strong at work last night and resisted a VERY LARGE bowl of leftover Halloween treats. It was very difficult! But I resisted! Hooray!

[teezu]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Congrats to all you losers!!! I am also a loser! Down again this morning for a total of 8.6 for the Christmas challenge and a total of almost 25!! Wooooohooooo!!! I was a little discouraged last week with no weight loss but put forth extra effort this week and it finally came off. My challenges this week were not having one single piece of halloween candy and going out to dinner Friday, Saturday and Sunday night to my favorite restaurants and I didn't cheat ONCE! It starts to become a little easier.
