"Weigh In"
#1081
Hey! Where is everybody hiding these days. It seems as though we have dwindled down to a very small group. Did you all get down to your goal weight and you don't need us any longer? Come back and tell us how you did it, or tell us how you are doing. I was keeping my eye on several of you, and getting so much motivation and inspiration from you.
We have about 12 weeks to go before Memorial Day Weekend, which, here in Michigan, is usually the kick off of wearing shorts, and being outside. I sure hope to be feeling great about myself in some new shorts this summer. I plan to debut my new toned, smaller body this summer season. I may even wear a swimsuit at our pool this year while everyone is visiting instead of waiting until they all go home to swim. Maybe I will get in and splash those grandkids of mine. They always splash me while I am standing at the side of the pool and they think it is so funny. Summer is going to come. I plan to be ready this year.
Please check in with us again.

Hi all. I haven't been hiding--just pouting!! I'm so stuck at this weight and very discouraged. But I'll keep trying.
Rose: as to your question about Alli: I know people who have used it (comes in Over-the-counter strength and Prescription str). If you follow the diet plan VERY strictly-no fat at all, you lose weight pretty fast. I don't know too many people that can eliminate fat entirely-it's in everything. If you don't eliminate fat, you better hope and pray that you're near a bathroom all the time!! It ain't pretty--as the ad says: side effects include watery oily discharge> In other words, not to be gross but it's like constant diarrhea leaking out. Sorry to those that are eating, but it's true.
Hope everyone is doing better than I am this month. Once this seasonal depression lifts (soon I hope) I'll be back on track and challenging you all for those FQs. Have a healthy day-Jan

Not hiding-just been sick off and on for going on 7 weeks and don't want to think about the weight thing right now. I am holding at 197 though. Of course when you go almost 24 hours without eating due to nausea it isn't hard.

WERE HAS EVERYONE GONE!!!!!!!!!!! Have you all given up like I am sooooooooo tempted to?????????
Since we are going back to posting our weight loss I am disapointed this week. Last week I did REALLY well this week even though I did exactly the same thing as last week I only lost 1 lb. better then nothing. I don't understand it I ate exactly the same thing everyday. The only difference was the veggies. However they had the same amount of calories. I had greenbeans. broccoli or spinach. It got boring eating the same everday but since it worked for last week I didn't want to change anything. I will see what this coming week brings.

Maybe you should change your diet up a little, trupeach. I have even eaten a few more calories and then weighed the next day and lost a lb. I think our bodies need some variety of food and exercise. If I do the same exercise day after day my body gets used to it. I switch it around a little. Hang in there and you will see the results.
janRN I know the feeling of being stuck, I think they call it a plateau, but hang in there we are here for you and you can do it!!

I know it is hard to get through the seasonal depression, anyone out there have any suggestions that may help those who suffer from it?
