not what I had in mind...

When I said I was going to share Saint's Fan's loss...this is not exactly what I had in mind...he lost two I gained two

(I still think my scale is messed up though**I do love my children and their love for experimenting with all things in my house though**...is it worth $20 for a new scale or just keep track as best I can on this one?)

P.S. I know this is not reporting day...I'll have a chat w/ Saints fan about that...I just couldn't resist this post after his :(

I Am Thinking About Losing Weight

I thought about losing some weight this week and magically I did. Put me down for a 2 pound loss.

-Saints Fan

March Goals...

5 hours of tv a week (Yes, I know it's March Madness. Go Syracuse!!!)
2 nightly strolls down the lane a week
8 servings of vegetables/fruits a day
Increase global temperature to a high of 70 degrees before months end

-1 for Thunderbuns this week. Does anyone have any advice on how to bust through a weight loss plateau????

DITTO!!!

It wouldn't let me comment but I DITTO to Hot momma!!!!! It is so unfair that if a guy thinks about loosing weight he does. So anoying!!!! (sorry Go saints fan!!! You really are doing amazing!!!!) Sadly I report a 0 this week. I guess it isn't up again but not down either :( My life has to get off this roller coaster and then maybe my weight will start going down again.

Giving up

I'm officially just going to claim half of Saint's Fans loss as my own. Blah


Ever seen this...so how I feel (I'm not endorsing the product...just how I'm feeling lately)


And really truly I am proud of my hubby...and maybe if I actually tried...but I LACK MOTIVATION!!! sigh...so I'll just ride the tails of his success :) GO SAINTS FAN!!

Church Ball Update...

Hitting a 3 pointer that was nothing but net.
Getting punched in the face and getting a fat lip.
Fouling out with atleast 5 fouls.
Beating the 9th Ward (they have their own jerseys) with two fewer players.

This week I worked out almost everyday, just missed Presidents Day. What a beautiful week, put me down for another 5 pound loss.

-Saints Fan

scale fixed

Well...got new batteries for the scale. Same weight 5 times in a row...not happy w/ the weight, but oh well. Zero is where I should be(dang it!!) oh, but if you need a little pick me up...change you scale to kilograms...and enjoy the number!! (oh and for what it's worth...I'll be weighing in on Friday and I'll report on Mondays still to keep things simple)

Looks Like Spring

I was out and about and could not believe how much it feels like Spring to me. Sunny and a cool 48 degrees. I was eyeing the exercise path that runs through the complex at my work and thought that I need to get outside for a walk/run. I think I may becoming a little addicted to exercise.

I am looking forward to Church Basketball tonight, I may just have to bring the ball down the court like Kobe Bryant and shoot a lean away 3 at the buzzer. What a wonderful role model Kobe is...

-Saints Fan

Tuesday....the new Monday

Apparently, when Monday is a holiday, and there is no work or school for the other members of my family I can't keep the days straight. In my head today is totally Monday. I have been off all day. However, I am down two more pounds. I will totally report that!!
-Cookie

Hey Cookie...

I think you're a couple weeks behind on the sidebar numbers...I could care less...but I know that Saints fan lost 3, then 1 so he should be a -19 (the stinker!!!)

(not trying to be a brat here...just not sure if you noticed or not) :)

Bragging...

not about me...but about my Hubby!! We ordered him some shorts for our upcoming vacation...I ordered in two sizes since he is losing so much weight..well...not only do I have to take the bigger size back, but I have to take the smaller size back too. ..and get a smaller one!!

Way To Go SAINTS fan!!

I on the other hand am ashamed of my eating and my behavior...my scale is still messed up, but the numbers are registering higher...so I guess zero me out, I'll buy new batteries (or scale) and start again.

well...

We had a friend visit sunday night and monday and I forgot to weigh in yesterday sorry :( With company I never eat as I should especially since I feel like I have to be the great hostess and cook a big breakfast, then we went out for lunch, and to a different friends for dinner. Needless to say I didn't eat like I should have this weekend at all and it showed. Yes I am still fessing up to my +3. That is what happenes when you eat 2 meals that are high is sodium :(
-Razzle

Thunderbuns lost 1 pound. This is really nothing short of a miracle after the yummy Valentines day I had!! :)

So...........

No one wants to fess up today huh?!?!?!? Well I will take the plunge and say that I gained a pound this week :( No I am not happy about it but with weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks (no I am not exaggerating) of sick kids and sheer exhaustion and no enthusiasm to exercise when they finally get to bed I am actually pleased it is only one. And not to mention all the YUMMY valentines candies. So I hope to see some big numbers next week. See I have a goal!!! A big goal!!!! 10 lbs in 5 weeks!!!! MUST get ready to chase the kids around Southern California :) Wish me luck :)

Another Great Week

Saints Fan lost 1 pound this week. Considering the Superbowl Spread including jambalaya, two types of wings, stroganoff sandwiches, baby Nathan's hotdogs, stuffed pizza pretzels, fudge, cookies, chips & dip, Jello, M&M's, jalapeño poppers, breaded mozzarella sticks, cranberry slush, and a few other things that I know I have forgotten...It has been a great week.

WHY!!!!

Why is it that when you kids are sick you could care less about being good!!!! I so need to stop today!!!!!!!

Darla

Sure wish my weigh in day was Tuesday!!!!!!

A little Inspiration

I noticed that we are all doing well, but could maybe use a boost from each other - so I looked up some motivational quotes. I hope one of them will help you feel inspired to have an amazing week.

The difference between try and triumph is just a little umph!

The first and best victory is to conquer self.

The Lord gave you a body that can stand most anything. It's your mind you need to convince.

The man who can drive himself further once the effort gets painful is the man who will win!

I noticed our comments of each others successes (or set backs) were going down. I didn't want any of you to get frustrated or discouraged thinking we don't care. We are all in this together and we all care. Gain or loss, good or bad, we are in this together. So know you are supported and we will all celebrate together!!

I am not lying.....I promise...

....I really did weigh in this morning, AFTER all the Superbowl indulgences. I still get to report what I didn't get to last week because last Monday was conspiring against me....

-3 YIPPEE!!

-Cookie

reporting in...still having scale issues, but it's all around what I was with the -2 so I'll keep that :)
-Hot Momma

I'll claim a -2 this week.

Poppy

Still going down!!!

Slowly but surly I think I may make it. I am down 1 again this week. I would really like that number to go down faster so this week my goal is to write things down so I know exactly what I am doing and we will see if that helps :) CONGRATS TO ALL!!!!!

I am still the same - no loss - no gain!!! I think I'm at a point where I am going to have to work extra hard to loose the last 10 - 15 pounds that are still hanging around. Unfortunately I am having a hard time making myself work harder.

-Thunder buns

Well...

I said I was going to own my Monday weight no mater what this week. I am -.5. YAY the 2 lbs was real :)
-Razzle

Finally back to 0!

I know by mid February I should be negative, but since that scale is not always my friend I will celebrate my loss of 2 and be glad to be back to 0!!
Zody
P.S. Good thing my weigh in was before the game :)

Hair Cut Helped

Saints Fan lost another 3 pounds this week all thanks to Paul "The Barber" Dickson (not to be confused with Tony "The Butcher" Nastasi) and Church Basketball. Next weeks weigh-in doesn't look good with the spread expected come Sunday afternoon...

Go SAINTS!

weight lost

For those who have posted so far we lost 6 lbs :) Great Job everyone ^_^

Monday is the weigh in day and I was Up one. Tuesday down three, but Monday is my day to weigh in so up one it is.

Poppy

I am -2 today. Yesterday I was up 1 so I decided to take todays weigh in instead :)
-Razzle

my scale registered about 10 different weights every time I stepped on and off of it...time for new batteries I think! so I can't tell what I am...close to what I was I think though

Saints Fan is down another 3 (he uses the work scale)

-Hot Momma

No gain no loss for me...... I really need to get my rear in gear!

-Thunderbuns

No gain....No loss

Fasting twice in one week is not a good idea for trying to lose weight. (That was not the reason for fasting by the way...that would be called starving!!) It makes me too hungry the other days. I also was down 3 more lbs in the middle of the week, but not today. Maybe they will disappear again later. Still motivated. I worked out today until I was sweating like a pig-dog....yuck, but I liked it!!
-Cookie

Well.....

Well I will start the weigh in's off for the day. I am a -1 BLAAAAA I so wish it was Thursday when we weighed in I was lots less then but this is the day so this is what it is :) Still down (just not as good as I thought)

Darla

I don't know what is wrong!

I just can't seem to get the scale to cooperate with me. I have yet again gone in the wrong direction with a +1. The problem is not so much with the positive number, but with the fact that I thought I was having a good week. I enjoyed my exercise instead of just doing it. I ate better and drank my water. Overall - my energy and attitude were up!

SO WHY DOESN'T THAT CRAZY SCALE SHOW IT!!!!

Oh well - I will just keep at it and try to not get frustrated. There is more to being healthy than a number on a scale, or I guess I should say - that scale doesn't know ANYTHING!! I am healthier than I have been in a long time and I am EXCITED about that!

Best of luck to all!
