Pink Clouds, at least you didn't gain weight. I'm sure by next weight in you will be below 276!

Mexican food! Haha... I know, it's so darn good, but oh so bad when you get it from a resturant. Oh, I do hope she's not trying to sabotage you. Eh, maybe she's jealous! You're getting the attention for losing weight and she's gaining what you're losing! I know how the sabotage is, I'm on my diet alone and everything is going good food wise. My mom started a diet with me a few weeks back and my Step-dad started bring home cake, cookies, chinese food. Then when she stopped dieting with me all those goodies stopped comming home. So, now she's back on the diet with me, she just hasn't let him know yet, so that he doesn't start bring home crap again.

Anyway, I know the weight you gained will be gone soon enough.
 
Today was my weigh in day. I lost 2.5 pounds! I'm so proud of myself! After a month of eating right and exercising, I'm finally seeing movement on the scale.

I think it's due to the Tae Bo I've been doing!

Congratulations Veronica! I'm glad you are finally seeing results.

I lost 1.8 lbs this week. Yay! Anyway, I was just curious, how often do you all weigh yourselves? I weigh myself once a week but some people think this is too often. I'm just curious as to what you all think.

Cheers,
Alison

Hey there!! Great loss this week for ya!! I weigh myself once a month at my doctors, first month getting back on the weightloss train and this time i'm staying on!!. I used to weigh once a week, and it was great but now i wanted to stop worrying about what the scale says and start worryiong about what i put in my body and my exercise habits. So i focus on two things each day, and once a mont we work on what the scale says.

I think whatever works best for you is what you should stick with!! Keep it up you're doing great!!!
 
Hi all i'm new... Well second post at this thread. I'm 257 as of March 20th and i'm not sure what it will say in April, but i'm staying positive!

As far as junk food.. i'll tell ya what i'm told. And it's worked great. My mind tells me "wow i want chocolate right now..." I give it chocolate, half of what i should give it.
So i cut the candy bar in half, and eat what my mind is asking for.

If my mind says I want pizza and I tell it to take a hike and eat a salad.. the fact of it is.. i'm still wanting that pizza and will be discouraged sooner or later and break down to eat a whole pizza. But if i give my body a half a slice of pizza. My mind is happy and heck it's better than ruining the whole diet. :)

Let's not fight against what our minds want... it will win sooner or later and what happens after we are 130 pounds or whatever our goal is.. we will eat soemthing unhealthly one day or another, but we have to train ourselves to STOP at a certain point :).

And with that said i had 7 M&Ms with my lunch today.. :) YUM YUM!! :)

I feel the same way, but that also worries me. What if I lose a million pounds, get pregnant, get put on bed rest and gain back my million?

I guess that's a risk that I'll take.
:auto: (like driving fast)

Hey there we could make our own lose weight so we can get pregnant!! That's my major goal. I want to get my body in shape to carry a healthy little boy or girl! :) I've been told peopel in shape have better labors anyway and i want my children to grow up in a healthy environment so i figured it's best to start now.. :) Just dont tell my hubby he wants me pregnant now.. with twins! LOL He's ready and I'm ready, but my body isn't!!

Thanks Everyone!

Congrats Alison on losing 1.8 pounds.

I weight myself every Sunday. So, I dont think weighing yourself weekly is too much. =) It's personal preference I think.

So now I am officially two pound ..my mom is such a sabotager ..but I am not going to play into it anymore ..she stomps around all pissed because she is up to 225 and I am losing weight... she should be happy for me .. I am 275.2 ..she should want me to lose weight ... ugh .. this sucks about her ..she doesnt want competition ..its kind of like she is in competition ..when I came back from my forty minute walk ..she did forty minutes on the treadmill ..which usually she only does twenty .. and she was complaining that I was losing weight and she was gaining at the same time ..

ugh .. what the hell?!

oh well ..she is not going to do this .. I am not eating the crap she is bring home ..by first April weight in I will be down two pounds ... ugh
yes I will be!!:hurray::hurray:

lol

love yas peeps

Hey everyone, its been a while since I've been on here.

My grandma died last week and had to make a last minute trip to Nebraska. So not being happy and having to eat out all the time probably didn't have a good effect on my progress. It started snowing while I was home so now I'm sick again. It seems like every time I get back into the swing of things something happens to kill it again. I'm stressed about money on top of everything so it makes me want to sleep all the time instead of working out. Blah.

Hope everyone is doing better than me.

Oh ok Nataliejo lets not talk about Mexican food :leaving: ZOMG they have a place near my work called Moe's and they make steak quesadilla like you would not imagine. And with mushrooms, onions and green peppers :svengo:

Sorry to hear about the sabotage going on, but you are strong and even when you are not we are here to be strong for you darlin'. There is a woman at my work like that. She brings cookies and chocolate and will not eat any of it but will pass it out to everyone. Then she actually sits and watches people eating it. I wonder what's on her mind when she does that LOL I would use the evil devil emoticon here, but it scares me a little :blush5: Just stay strong Nataliejo, you have been coming along so well:hurray::party:.:grouphug:

Welcome to the Thread of all Threads Emi :D:cheers2::hurray: I like your perspective on giving your body what it wants. Do you know that although it may seem common, that ideology stems from ancient medical wisdom? Really when you change the way you eat, your body can panic and want some of the things it was used to, that is why when we resist the urges we feel an incredible amount of stress...and for people like me it may lead to caving in to a day of binging or indulgence. So you are absolutely correct to give your body small amounts of what it is asking for and also to know your limitations :)

I am with you on the lose weight for pregnancy thread, since it was your idea you should start it...I am sure it will be a hit and I will definitely be on there :willy_nilly:

Spartacus I know what you mean...I drive fast too :p but ahdunno about driving this car fast:auto: the tires look flat :p

Hi Alison:waving: well I weigh once a week and i do not think its too much...I actually used to weigh myself everyday and i was on the "weigh yourself everyday" thread to put things into perspective for me. I think it all depends of your obsession/scale emotion factor. Some people would be devastated weighing once a week or even everyday and for some people it is the best thing since sliced 7 grain bread :hat:

:party: CONGRATULATIONS TO ALISON AND VERONICA ON THE LOSSES THIS WEEK...ROX MAJOR!!!:party:
 
Thanks Pink Clouds... I appreciate your words, I just wish they could stick tonight. I am so down trodden. I ate like you would and could not believe today. I binged all day. By tomorrow, the weigh in day, I will be right back where I started on the March two pounds a week thread. Not going to weigh myself everyday from now on, just going to try to eat healthy and try to keep walking and I will weigh in once a week. This scale is driving me crazy and the facts its going up is pissing me off. Oh well .. Maybe I will sleep well tonight and wake up to a better tomorrow. All I have to do is walk in the morning and that will happen ..

love yas

I am so bummed out! ugh
 
:grouphug::grouphug:There, there Nataliejo,:grouphug: a moment of weakness does not determine your destination and you have been having a successful journey thus far. Just wake up tomorrow and put today behind you like you said. Me too i was reeeeeeeeeeeally bad today, but I cooked my fish, rice and snowpeas for tomorrow :D :cheers2: This ones for you Natiliejo and your beautiful spirit. Don't worry about it hun, you will be fine and we will both make it through this and out of these 270's for good :D :grouphug:
