No-Weigh Challenge - Ongoing! <Snazzy Title Here> :P

[jessicalynn]

no scale for me either but i am in need of one i am goin to hold off though.....i hope :sarcasm

[Barbde]

You look great Jessica! Now STEP AWAY FROM THE SCALE!!

[Barbde]

Hey this is kind of exciting. I have been up since 5:20am and this is the first time I thought about the scale!! Woohoo! It's getting easier

[higgies]

That's great Barb! See?? building new habits!! I thought about it this morning...mainly because after I woke up I was in the bathroom looking in the mirror and I could actually see my ribs! First time for that... LOL

[jimmie 48]

is it morning already? i need coffee not a scale.
i saw some curves yesterday that i didn't notice before. jack says i'm in inny instead of an outy now. do you understand that or do i have to explain? i gotta go get coffee.

i see jess showed up. nice to "see" you.

[snowlily]

Good morning everyone!

Wont be around much today! Starting a babysitting job! So, until I get adjusted, i may just be around at nap times!

I however dont wanna get on the scale! i was bad!!!!

[jimmie 48]

babysitting! see there are some wonderful advantages to my age. if and when i babysit it will be for grandkids only!
i am sorry to hear that you were bad but remember, this is not so much a challenge to get a few pounds off. this is a challenge for not stepping on the scales and in that regard you did perfect! weight loss just should be a side goal till we get ourselves use to this. is that right oh faithful leader?

[Barbde]

Sounds right Jimmie, but I don't know..... as long as there is no GAIN!! :yikes

[jimmie 48]

well, i'm still in ketosis, so i don't think there will be a gain for me. i am hoping for a loss but if i just stop the up 2 down 1 up 3 thingy i'll be happy for the time being. that has been going on far too long.
i keep forgetting all the gang here so this is just a reminder for me so i don't have to go back to page one.

daisy and good grief i forgot
pooh

okay there are 10 of us, if i didn't forget anyone else. now if i remember to hit page 9, i'll be able to see the names in one spot.

[snowlily]

LOL @ Jimmie! You are so funny!

I know i havent gained, but i know i took myself out of ketosis!

and to beat it all dh packed up all our dishes and said we can just eat out till we move! Mind you, we dont even have the exact closing date yet! We know it is completely finished! So, eating out dont leave too many options, unless i get steak every night.........hmmmmm, i may be on to something there! LOL!

[higgies]

Steak, chicken, salads, etc...there are lots of options eating out. Get creative!

Wow, 10 people! That's awesome! I hope we all make it till Friday...keep it up!!

Hey Jimmie - when you say you are still in Ketosis, does that mean that you remain in the dark purple? Or do you bounce back around from trace to small to moderate, etc? I can't hold a colo- I am all over the board, but I have never gotten past Moderate (and that was only one day).

OK - I want to get on that darn scale so badly, but I am not getting on it !!! I am withholding from the pressure !!!

Higgies. how was your b-day? Did you do something 'fun'?

[jimmie 48]

cubbyfan> i show moderate almost all time. dark once during this ketotime but mostly moderate. been there for over a week i guess. i did some posting about that, cost and such. seems like it was a week ago. before the challenge came up. i think that is what is helping me not to weigh. if i wansn't turning i think my scale urge would be more.
sidebar: whats the deal about sammy? heard some people talking about it at church yesterday. is he being traded or something?

snow> if my man would take me out every night i would be in heaven. well, you and i both know not exactly "in heaven" but you get the gist. i would go to the buffet and eat prime rib and salad every night!
beef, its whats for dinner!

[ChicagoCubFan]

Thanks for the tip Jimmie - I bounce all over heck and back with the ketosis - so good to know that others do too !!!

Sammy - where do I start !!! We basically just ran him out of Chicago !!! He pulled some really crappy stuff last year at the end of the season, and we just did everything we could to get him traded. I beleive the deal will be done today, THANK GOODNESS - he gets paid way to much and he needs to get out of Chi-town. I think he is going to Baltimore, but I can't remember for sure. I was just so happy to hear that he was outta here !!!! He has been our 'hero' for about 5 years - come to find out last night, he is a really horses a** and absolutely none of his teammates can stand him. So look out everybody - the Cubs are going to have a fresh kick-butt start this year !!! But we need a right fielder !!! BADLY !!!!!

*Hiding in the forums till the urge to weigh goes away*

How often do you all test on you strips? Sometimes I find myself doing it 2 or 3 times a day. UGHHHHH Expensive past time huh. :raving


la la la la laa la laa (sorry, still waiting for that urge to leave)
