ladies, ladies!

we have made it three whole weeks! hasn't it gone by so so fast! as usual this post is early and will put up the reminders!  good luck!

- don’t forget to include your tenths of pound! they make a difference!

- if you want to put figure your percentage lost you can, but either way i will do the calculation to make sure the results are accurate.

also, please give us some insight to your week if you had a good loss!

and of course, if you’d like to keep your numbers private than just PM your weight for this week and I will only post the percentage.

please have your numbers into my 2et. if possible! i'd like to declare a winner before 8et!

the weekly winner(s) get to change their avatar to the biggest loser logo for the week! i made a special little avatar (yay!)

Last week: 136.8

This week: 134.8

Two pounds down and AF is even visitiing!

 This week I decided that I was going to be little miss house wife and was going to cook all meals from scratch instead of using mixes or boxed items.  I tried to have more rounded meals and use more veggies.  I also worked out like a mofo a few days in there so I am sure it was a combo of both. 

Two steps forward, one step back for me. But it was my birthday week! Up to 142.4 :(

@caity713: Wow! Way to go!

@southerntransplant: I've been thinking about trying vegetarian. Let us know how it goes. I think FI would probably die. I made him one vegetarian dinner last week and he was like, where's the meat? And then he ate a sandwich. . .

Morning Ladies!

I'm still at 192.4! Not bad, but weird considering that I got on the scale earlier in the week and i was 191. but whatever, just have to eat better this next week. we had a kabobs and margarita's last night so i'm sure that didn't help!

@bestbuddies:  Hang in there, I think that your body is in calorie storing mode. If you've worked out more than before that could be a factor too.

Just take the next couple weeks one day at time. The moments that you know you can control, like at work, try to be as on top of your diet as you can. If you get a few moments, plan a walk. It will be fine!!! And if not, this is life and stuff like this happens, what's important is that you are making a change for the rest of your life and not for just this very moment!

@bestbuddies: I'm sure your body is just adjusting to your new diet and exercise routine! I know how you feel though, I had my birthday, and people have been taking me out all week, plus cinqo de Mayo, and I still have my party this weekend (I always fall apart diet-wise at my parties). Plus, my parents sent me a big box of expensive chocolates for my birthday, fresh chocolates that are supposed to be eaten within 10 days, and FI doesn't like chocolates so it's up to me! I promise we'll get through this. Just remember we're here for you and don't beat yourself up about celebrating birthdays and anniversaries. You have to enjoy life too, otherwise you'll just end up falling off the wagon totally. I dieted too hard once (for like a year) and then I just got mad about it and ended up gaining back over 20 pounds. Now I'm trying to be moderate about it and be kind to myself. You'll have slip ups and bad weeks, but you'll still be exercising more than you used to, and probably eating better a lot of the time. It'll all work out. Sorry, that was really long. . .

Last week I was on spring break (aka disaster week) and gained 3 pounds!  Yikes.

Luckily, now I'm back home and lost those 3 pounds again.

Weight last week:  141.5

Weight this week:  138.5  (back to my week 1 weigh-in weight)

Hopefully next week I'll be going down from 138.5.

@penguin: Welcome! Way to go. You've made a lot of progress already!

Correction to mine.  I went off my weight from last night because I assumed it wouldn't have dropped...and I just stepped on the scale to see that I am down 0.8 pounds from yesterday. 

So I am at 134 for this week and was 136.8 last week. That is 2.8 pounds in a week! 6 pounds down total since I started this up after my wedding!

Just a tip for everyone. If you're going to make a big salad at the beginning of the week to eat for lunches, DON'T put any cheese in it. It is totally soggy and gross by the end of the week. Blech.

@Keltaena: Yeah, some of that stuff is better to keep in seperate containers and then add in later!

I totally forgot to weigh in this morning and wont be home for another 3 1/2hrs so I'm going to have to sit this week out I think. I weigh in tomorrow for WW so I'll see what I did then I guess lol

@penguin: Glad your joining us! I'm going to put your starting weight as 146.4 and then next friday you can officially join in!

@penguin:  I was going to PM you, but i think this question is worthy of a public answer!

how much water did the nutritionists tell you to drink? was it the normal 8 glasses or was that something else that was specific to you?

@PinkPandaBear:  I've got you down!

@electricmayhem: I've added you!
