BL 3 -- Blue team week 2

[Sabrina_Mouse]

Welcome new team members!

Vija - Good luck with your interview!

The water challenge should be an easy one for me. I'm not into drinking sodas that often anymore. But I have been enjoying iced tea.

I'm proud of myself this morning. At 10 pm last night I thought I was starving. I started to head for the kitchen and I caught myself and told myself no. Well guess what - I didn't starve after all! Late night eating is one of my biggest issues.

Take care!

Sabrina

Even with my limited time to exercise I lost 2.2 pounds for the week. And the best part...I am down a size. In fact it is the same size I wore when I graduated HS / before PG with DD1. The funny thing...I am 30 pounds heavier than I was then. BOY have sizes changed in the past 17 years. I actually have a pair of jeans from back then (acid wash, size ankle skinny jeans) and there is no way I can get them on yet. Of cours this is my ultimate goal. Not that I would actually wear them in public but...

Oh DISNEY CHRISTA

You would atleast have to throw an 80's party and wear them somewhere!! Congratulations on your size loss - that is incredible!!

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

Just for your FYI, as a team we lost 67.4# total. Isn't that awesome???!!!!!

PLEASE, for those of you that missed the deadline to WI for week 2, please do so and PM me your results, we will be doing cummulative biggest losers as well as weekly losers, so if you haven't done so, please send me your results ASAP.

ROCK ON BLUE TEAM!!

Congrats and cyber high fives to our BL this week!!! ​

not much time today -- i don't know that i'll get to back track and re-read what i missed yesterdy either so i'm moving forward. i am taking the water challenge, i started tracking tuesday and have got it all in for a whole 2 days

and i got my LW (long walk) done for this week! yiipppeee!!! however, i can tell carrying an extra 10 lbs is 'weighing' me down, it's harder and more tiring for me too keep pace and my pace is slower than i want it to be!! i'm soooo glad we have our team to keep me accountable and in the mindset of losing!!

Hi Blue teamies...it's a long bad day for me so I'm glad I read this...now I'm going to throw some laundry in, drink some water and mow the grass...get out into the sunshine! That should help. After I pick up after our pooches, that is...

Congrats to everyone on the weight loss!!

Just for your FYI, as a team we lost 67.4# total.

That is so great! And in only a week! Way to go Blue Team

As I have been reading through different post on the WISH, I have come acrossed some really great ideas (when it comes to losing weight) posted by other memebers. I also came across a poem, and when I went to go back to read it again I couldn't find where it was posted or who it was posted by( i wanted to give them the credit for it)! I searched for it on yahoo and did find it, so I am going to share it with you. And to the person who posted this before, thank you!

Only One Pound
Hello! Do you know me?

If you don't, you should. I'm a pound of fat.

And I am the happiest pound of fat that you would ever want to meet.

Want to know why?

It's because no one ever wants to lose me.

I'm only one pound, just a pound!

Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds, or fifteen pounds, but never only one.

So I just stick around and happily keep you fat.

Then I add to myself, ever so slyly, so that you never seem to notice it.

That is until I've grown to ten, twenty, thirty or even more pounds in weight.

Yes, it's fun being only one pound of fat, left to do as I please.

So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying, "Oh, I only lost one pound."

(As if that were such a terrible thing)

For you see, if you do this, you'll encourage others to keep me around because they'll think I'm not worth losing.

And, I love being around you-your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips and every part of you.

After all, I'm only one pound of fat!!!​

HEY EVERYONE!!!! I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!

I am so happy! It is going to be very different than what I do now, a learning curve will be there. I am not sure when I start, but soon. On the downside, initially I'll be working 7 days a week (I will need to give notice for my weekend gig). I may not be able to post as much, so someone else will need to take over the roll of THREAD POST COUNT INCREASER!

Have a losing day and drink that water!

 

[hrpufnsash]

CONGRATULATIONS VIJA~!! That is so exciting! Eventually will you have some weekends off? I hope so - GREAT JOB!!

 

[AuntieM03]

Hi! I am joining the challenge a week late and OhMom was nice enough to add me to the blue team - YAY! It looks like our team did great in week one.

A little about me: I have lost 20 pounds so far on jenny craig and am working towards 30 more to be at goal. I have 2 year old triplets and I bulked up during pregnancy and post-delivery. I have been working out 2-3 days a week but now that I am joining this team, I am going to add another day or two at night to get up to 4-5 times a week. I work full-time out of the home in a pretty demanding profession so making time for the gym on top of my family can be difficult but I am committed to doing this for myself.

I am looking forward to getting to know you all!

Jill

Congrats on the new job Vija and Desiree !!!!!

Hope everything went well at the doctor luckywife.

Water challenge sounds great...I usually have a hard time with that so a challenge is just what I need.
