Hi Everyone. I absolutely cannot believe we are well into October already. I honestly do not know how we got here. It is almost like a week ago it was the first of the year. OK so I am exaggerating but time truly has flown by. I am just now getting my 2015 taxes finished. Maybe weight wise it is to my advantage. With the days passing so fast I don’t have time to get hungry between meals. LOL It isn’t too late to prepare for the Holidays. Think of how stunning you will look with some of those unwanted pounds gone. Think of how your friends and family will compliment you on how well you look.
I gained half a pound again this week which is the maximum amount I want to gain. I still want to stay at 113 even though my goal is actually 115. I should lose a pound or two before Halloween though when my son comes for my birthday. I always gain while he is here.
Agate, you continue to remain our poster lady advertising no weight gain and in fact staying the same. If I didn’t know better I would think your scale is stuck. Keep it going.
Mamabug, I trust you are having a wonderful time on your trip. Enjoy!
Hsmaldo, congratulations on your weight loss. I hope your father in law is healing and that your mother in law is getting along well with managing her diabetes. You should feel very proud of yourself for passing on the various temptations you have encountered. I am sure the compliments you are getting from others are helping in staying on the weight loss track. Keep fighting the good fight.
Poohb3ar, what a great weight loss. I knew you could do it! How wonderful to be in the 140's and still losing. And what a bonus to have your husband compliment you on how well you look. I am sure you will enjoy your time with your daughter and her family including the new addition. Looking forward to when you return. Keep up the good work.
Msgijo, my goodness that was a big loss especially when you were not even trying to lose. I hope you have regained your equilibrium. And I hope your week has been less stressful. I am curious to know if you smoked that ham. I wouldn’t know where to begin. Good luck.
For those who may have an interest in joining our dedicated group, our members each have their own personal methods of weight loss. Some are on Weight Watchers, some on Atkins for example and some just cut calories. I personally lost quite a lot of weight in the beginning using Atkins and then just cut portions while eating everything. The method is not the most important thing, it is staying focused and following the plan.
We post weight loss, gain, stayed the same, from Thursday to Thursday and have been doing so for fourteen years. We are truly dedicated to get rid of those pesky pounds and keep them off. You don’t have to state your actual weight. It’s a matter of choice.
Tip For The Week:
Dr. Oz says, “Go lean with bean protein. Beans are an affordable and healthy alternative to meats and are wonderfully filling.” Recently I discovered a use for large portobelo mushrooms which are extremely low in calories. I fill the mushroom to overflowing with hummus of various flavors. I have that with a salad and feel very satisfied.
Weight Loss Results:
Total Loss:
8.0 pounds by three members. Fantastic! You should all be proud. These results prove that it can be done and the rest of us could follow in your footsteps. Let’s give it a try.
Total Gain:
.5 pound by one member. The best thing I can say is not to follow in my footsteps. In this case, do as I say and not as I do!
Stayed The Same:
1 member. As we know, staying the same truly is success, including for those who are maintaining. Just keep remembering it is the time before the next loss if you have more to lose. Also staying the same is a signal that you are eating the right amount to maintain your losses.
3919.4 is the total weight loss for the past 14 years. We have hit a new milestone. We now have less than 100 pounds to reach two tons lost. That is fantastic.
