Club 190s

(travelling and weightloss don't mix for me)

They don't mix for me either! Well, except my last business trip to Austria. Apparently, it's the beef capitol of Europe. Vegetarian fare was rather sparse. I actually lost weight!

Welcome aboard. Stick around and chat...but don't stick around too long! :p Let's all meet in the 180s club in a few weeks, ok?
 
Woowho! Official weigh in today has me at 196.6 lbs. I'm moving my way down slowly but surely! At this rate, I should be in the 180s club by mid July. Later than I wanted to be, but at least I'll make it there.

How is everyone else doing on the weight loss?
 
Hey madness! Good on ya for the loss!!! I hope I'll be hot on your heels into the 180's club!

I'm definatly not down, having been away and approaching TOM. But I still get to stay in the club! I sure could have done worse on my trip, but I ate pretty decently and went for a good walk most nights.

I'm glad to be home, and I think this is going to be a good week :)

Glad you didn't do so bad on the vacation! Just adding in a little exercise probably made a huge difference.
 
Had a weigh in yesterday and I'm on 190.9... lost 2.2 pounds, woooo!

I'm almost outta here guys, I can't believe it! Well done on all your losses!
 
Arg. My scale has stayed steady at 196.6 lbs all week. I really wanted a loss this week! But I've been bad about exercise. I only hit my target exercise once so far since Sunday and I've eaten over 2000 calories twice this week (my goal is 1800). Time to get motivated again!
 
I hear ya madness! I just wanted to chuck my scale out the window this morning when it still said I wasn't down - but I kind of went out for nachos with a friend last night so that was a BIG calorie whoops. Honestly though, I've never lost weight so slowly when I've put my mind to it and I'm beginning to get not only frustrated, but also concerned that I'll not be able to succeed.

Flipping fat is stuck to me like glue.

I turn 30 next saturday... my original goal was to lose at least 5lbs by then and hopefully closer to 10. Humph. Not happening.

Let's both be good this week - maybe we'll both be able to report better news soon :)
 
Losing slowly is better than not losing at all!

My over-calorie days have all been days when I didn't have anything planned for dinner and I've just snacked and snacked. So I at least know the cause of that and have fixed it (hopefully!). As far as exercise, I just need to commit to burning enough calories and if I've been lazy all day, I will force myself to go on a walk before going to bed!

Let's make up for lost time and get big losses this week Celia!
 
Hello 190's! :) Is there room for one more in here? I just joined the forum today and posted in the newcomers section. Then I thought I should join this club. I was actually stuck at 196 for 4 days straight. Then this morning I was at 198!!:banghead: So frustrating! I have not over eaten so I am trying to figure out the problem. Anyway, I may be here awhile.:toetap05:
 
Always room for one more - mind you, we'll do our best to kick you out :) Hopefully the 180's club will have space for us shortly!

Congrats on your weightloss to date! Good job! Seems to me there is at times no rhyme nor reason why the scale says what it does, but hopefully your 198 will be gone for good on your next weigh! My scale said 198 again today too.
 
I read the sticky.... thanks for the link:)
It is true we put so much stock in the scale number. I do take my measurements and even though the scale says my weight has actually gone up a pound since last week, my over all measurements showed this morning that i have lost 3 inches.:hurray:
So who knows what is going on. I sure don't pretend to understand it. They say that people have eating disorders because it is one area of their lives that they feel complete control over. Well, I sure don't have to worry about that, I never feel in control. I feel like I am constantly trying to figure out what the heck my body is doing.
 
Hehehe, I've stayed away from scales for the most part... mainly because I believe that half the time the reading is misleading. I weigh once a week, same time, same place, same clothes... as long as I can see THAT number go down over the weeks, it's enough for me.

Basically, I always get these false lows... and so it gets too confusing, hopes up, hopes down, who knows what to do!??

So once a week it is for me :)
 
Hey, that's great SwampBillies! Losing inches is always nice to see. And I know just what you mean about not being in control! :willy_nilly:

I had a small loss this week, but a loss nonetheless! So I'm down to 195.8 lbs. I'm shooting for my July 21st weigh-in to be out of the club! And I thought I would be out by now! But I'm getting more realistic in my goals so that I can actually achieve them and feel good about it!
 
Thanks Madness. I am hoping to be out of this club by the end of the month also. So lets all plan to meet in the 180s club. I joined that challenge for July and the daily weigh in club. I hope this all goes well and I don't have to monitor it going UP!
 
Looks like I might be out of the club a bit sooner than I thought. Might weight loss might be lagging a bit from last month - I've lost 2.5 pounds since Monday! Or it's a false low and it's gonna suck when I officially weigh in on Monday. But it sure is motivating to see that low number on the scale.

I think Anke has left us behind. :(
 
Hey guys... after a 3.5 pound loss last week, (I really worked hard for it!) I'm in my 180's... it's nice and warm down here, see you all soon !!!! :)
