Hi Everyone. Can you believe it is almost the middle of July already! It is a good time to take stock of where we are with fulfilling weight loss goals. Many people find losing weight to be easier in the summer because of the abundance of fresh fruits and veggies. I hope you are all taking advantage of that benefit. We need to steel ourselves for the onslaught of Autumn veggies such as sweet potatoes and various kinds of winter squash. I love winter squash and have to be careful not to overdue.
I’m not surprised that I didn’t see a loss this week because I was not as attentive to calories as I should have been. Thus, I weigh 115.5 which is the same as last week. I will try my best to lose at least half a pound this coming week.
Agate, you really do deserve an award for consistency. I wish you could bottle it. I would be the first to make a purchase. I am rarely in that column since I constantly am yoyoing. Keep up the good work.
Mamabug, staying the same is a good place to be. It is certainly better than gaining. And think of it as the time before the next loss. Good luck.
Hsmaldo, how wonderful that you had such a great time. I am truly pleased for you. And to lose a pound in addition is fantastic. Good luck with your promotional test.
Poohb3ar, sorry to miss you again this week. I do hope all is well and that you will let us know soon.
Msgijo, yum, that pie sounds so good! I am sure your little indulgences were worth it especially since you are in your ideal weight range. I predict that you will go down this next week. You have such an amazing track record. Keep the faith.
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 over 15 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:
I heard on the news of a new study that reported that people who drink coffee live significantly longer than people who do not drink coffee. It make no difference of it was decaff. The wonderful thing about coffee is that it has no calories except for additives. I like coffee black which is fortunate for me. So drink up.
Weight Loss Results:
Total Loss:
1 pound by one member. Hsmaldo, you saved the day. It is important to have at least one loss in order to set a positive example. May we all follow suit next week.
Total Gain:
3.4 pounds by two members. Thanks for reminding us that gains can and do occur. It happens to the best of us. The good news is that we can turn that statistic around.
Stayed The Same:
2 members. 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.
4003.81 is the total weight loss for the past 15+ years. We hit a new milestone. We now have lost over two tons for which we should be proud. That truly is phenomenal.
