Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

I just weighed myself and the scale said BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!

No, that's not what it said but that's how I feel.

Maybe my scale is broken?

It said 166.2

I say impossible.

I weighed 162.2 Friday and Saturday.  Then didn't weigh myself on Sunday.  Weighed myself Monday and up four pounds?  Heavier than I have been since April?  I just don't understand.

No I didn't diet all weekend.  But I didn't have an absolute pig out either.  I didn't even drink a lot!  I had 2 beers on Friday, low carb low cal.  I had a couple glasses of peach champagne Saturday night.  That's it for the alcohol.  I didn't strict moniter my food, but I didn't overeat!

As for exercise, I guess put me down for 50 minutes.  30 on treadmill on Monday, 20 up and down the stairs Tuesday.  That's it.

Not much in the mood to post.  If I am going to gain 4 pounds that easily than what fun is my life ever going to be?  I don't mind dieting Monday through Friday, eating healthy, whatever.  But I want to have a couple drinks with my husband on the weekends without feeling guilty or worrying about gaining weight.  I want to eat at least one family meal on a Sunday, and not have in the back of my head that 4 pounds are right behind me.

I am just too down to be on this site right now.  Maybe I'll feel better later.

I'm glad for the rest of you that you had good results.  Keep up the good work, you're all doing wonderful!

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Okay, one more thing

I am still having a hard time with this site.  I can only view threads that are active (on the first page) and I can't get in to anything else.

What I am looking for is a 3 day diet that I posted.  Not sure if it was on the 3dd thread or on the TWHITS thread.  It was the same day repeated for three days straight and worked with a lot of metabolism boosting foods.  Does anyone remember? 

If someone knows what I'm talking about and they could bump it up just long enough to let me print it.  Or send it to me in a PM. 

Of course I just can't find the magazine that I originally found it in.

Thanks,
Mandy

PS
I think I am more down today than usual because I am tired from so much work over the weekend, my house is a MESS!, my dogs are shedding terrible and I HATE DOG HAIR!, and one of my favorite fish that I've had for years was dead in my tank this morning.  So the weight gain was just the cherry on top of the sundae of my life.  I'll try to shake it off and check back in later.

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Don't believe the stupid scale 36!  They are WACK!!  Mine fluctuates so much I can have a 3 pound difference the same day!  Don't be so down, you need some fun time too and everything will equal out!  Mon. is not the best day to weigh in anyway, we should do it on Thurs. or Wed. instead.  I am going to do the CSD during the week and have the weekends off so it should all end up evening off, but  after eating normally during the weekend, today's weight will be higher than tomorrow just because of the excess water weight.   Right?    bet if you do day 1 today, you will see a difference tomorrow on the scale!

For you it's even worse that you gained! What is the b***** matter with us?????? IT IS NOT FAIR!! Must be the scales get a new set!!!!

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u136/sally22_01/abaaeb2d.gif

Don't give up and eat though but take a day to chill from the results then jump back on OK?

Yes I agree Friday would be a better weigh in day what does everyone else think?

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Really quick cause I was supposed to be off this darn computer an hour ago...
I much rather would weigh in on Fridays.  I am consistantly good Monday through Friday and give myself the weekends off.  So weighing in on a Monday morning is bound to be disappointing.  Plus now I have to see 166.2 on the chart for my weight for the whole week!  GRRR....that's kind of discouraging!  So, yes, I am in for a Friday weigh in.  Fab idea.

And thanks you guys for the kind words.  My life is just in turmoil right now for all kinds of reasons which makes it hard to put myself first and take care of myself.  But this is no excuse week, right?  So I will try harder.

By the way, the scale now says 165.  If I could swear right here, I would.  I don't think I cried a pound worth of tears so that's it, it's my scale, I hate it.

Thanks again you guys.

Talk to you later.

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Mandy sweeatheart, you can't possibly gained that much weight over the weekend! It's impossible! I had the same problem this morning too, I was up by 1-2lbs today. I got a little discouraged as well. You can give me your tomorrow morning's weight smiley-smile I'm sure you'll be down by then! hopefully I will too. Also, sorry to hear about all the things that's going wrong smiley-hug

I think we can definitely weight in on Fridays.

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Okay, thanks.  I think it will be better tomorrow.  I may have gained, I've had a rough few days emotionally, but I just couldn't believe I would've gained THAT much!
I will up date it tomorrow on the new thread.
And I'm so happy we will be doing Friday weigh ins now!  smiley-clapping
You guys are all so awesome.  I feel so blessed to have found you all!  smiley-hug

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Hi All,
Today is my 7th day...and i have lost a total of 8 lbs (not including today)... I hope is 10 by tomorrow... smiley-rolleyes

Anyway, has anyone tried just doing the first 3 days over and over?

36 cheer up... we got to keep on going but not having fun on your off days is not worth 1 or 2 lbs... I agree i think is just your scale, 4lbs in 2 days is almost impossible.

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Hey girls,

LOL! I totally think jills comment about a no excuse week is all about me!!lol.

Mandy honey dont worry about it. It will drop off again. anychance near your period? Cuz women naturally go up about 5 pounds in water weight. If not, im sure it is just water weight and is going to come off. Try weighing yourself in two days. youll see. anyways stay positive and dont let it get to you.

Sally, what a freaken creep, lol. Im glad your not letting it get to you this time though. I don't know what we would do without  you.

Here are my stats:

Start of the week:227
end of the week:224.5
total loss: 2.5 pounds

Bicep: 13
chest: 52
waist: 42.5
hips: 42.5
thigh: 26
calf: 16

So I gained a little, lost a little. How odd.

anyways that is all for me for a while. I will talk to you girls a little later if i dont check in later tonight I will definetly be back tomorrow night (after work).

Brittany

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

fiddy...
dude moving is SUCH excersise.. unless of course you paid for someone else to do it hahaha

and 36... keep your head up girl.  I think everyone has that moment of wanting to take their scale to a field and go at it with a bat like that scene from Office Space with the printer.

Hey Fiddy do you get The Office [UK] over there at all it is sooo funny I loved it!

Wow KPMR that is a brill weight loss, well done you must be very happy!

Rottingoak cheers for Friday weigh ins good idea for most of us!

Brittany I think it's about me too lol! But I am trying! Hey you did great at least you're losing. I'm just stood still and have been for 5 weeks! I can't eat any less!!! I'm having exactly what WW recommends to lose weight I just don't. There's nothing for it but doing CSD again before my holiday!

Mandy nah no a**hole is gonna get rid of me I'm just gonna post that don't give a damn message everytime they do it and take the p***.
My mates on here are far more important! Family stress is a real bummer I've had my fair share!!!! Step families sure are hard work!!! Just don't hit that cookie jar mate we're here for you rooting mate! Oh and make sure your scales are on a hard floor as that can sure make a difference!

Bathroom scale diet tricks

1. Weigh yourself fully clothed after dinner and again the next morning without clothes and before breakfast, because it's nice to see how much weight you've lost overnight!

2. Never weigh yourself with wet hair.

3. When weighing, remove everything, including eyeglasses. In this case, blurred vision is an asset. Don't forget to remove jewellery as it could weigh as much as a pound!

4. Buy only cheap scales, never the medical kind. Accuracy is the enemy and high quality scales are very accurate.

5. Always go to the bathroom first.

6. Weigh yourself after a haircut, this is good for up to half a pound of hair (hopefully).

7. Exhale with all your might BEFORE stepping onto the scale. (Air has weight, right?)

8. Start out with just one foot on the scale, then holding onto a towel rod slowly edge your other foot onto the scale while slowly releasing the towel rod. Admittedly, this takes time, but it's worth it. You will weigh at least two pounds less than if you'd stepped onto the scale normally.

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Sally, LOVE LOVE LOVE those weigh in rules!  LMAO!  I swear my kids must think I'm a little crazy cause I just sit here and laugh at this screen so much!  And yes, my scale is on a hard floor and I don't ever move it.  I just got it in like March and it is a Weight Watchers digital scale. 

But yes, Beachy, yesterday I did want to have at it with a baseball bat!

Thanks again to everyone who helped to keep me from going off the deep end yesterday!  I feel so much better today.

Welcome back Odette!

kpmr, congrats on your 8 pound loss!  Fabulous results!

And Brittany, stick with it, you are doing great! 

Have a great day everyone!!!

Mandy

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Hey Girls - Not much to report other than I started jogging - sort of - I run for 30 seconds..and walk for 5 minutes...then I run for 30 seconds...sit down for 15 minutes.  My goal is to become one of these skinny b#tches with the designer Lulu Lemon jogging outfit on running down the street with EASE.  I'll get there.  I really have to get my metabolism back up.  BABY STEPS...  36toGo...read your Monday morning frustration and I'm glad your just surging forward.  It is more than likely that you are just retaining water....either that or there is a cheesecake you didn't tell us about.  I think you're idea of weighing in on Friday is fine....no-one expects you to NOT have a drink with your Hubby or enjoy a meal with the kids.  I find weekends VERY VERY hard.  Especially this time of year. 

Tip:  white wine (0) and most clear alcohol options like gin & vodka are good low carb drink options.  Google:  Baja Bob's Low Carb - this dude has all these REALLY COOL LOW CARB drink mixes like Margarita's - I tried them and they are GREAT!!! 

Anyhoo - I'll chat wit' cha all soon!!

Re: "June Weightloss Challenge...Week 1"

Glad to hear from you Brittany and you are doing great!  DON'T BLOW IT WITH A STUPID MILKSHAKE!!   It will be there when you're skinny, right?

Cabbage Super Queen...I see another worthy participant of the "Party Girl Diet" thread! Better give us the 411 on low carb booze and mixes!  Definately a girl after my own heart!   and though I prefer my wine red, I do like the clear booze!  Thanks much!
