Losing weight for Mickey

[Erin13178]

Woo hoo I'm doing the happy dance this morning!

Down to 151. Yay me! Now to show you all how far I've come, I decided to try to add pictures, even though I'm not even sure I can, lol.

This was a little over 3 years ago, around 110 lbs heavier then now.

This is yesterday.

Way to go, Erin - you look so great! Congrats to you!

I haven't posted in forever, but you've inspired me!

I'd like to join in if possible!!

Name: Chris (female!)
Age:34
Diet: Weight Watchers
Exercise: walking (I saw a post to "walk the miles to Disney World) so I'm subtracting my miles from the amount of miles it would take me to walk to WDW...I'll never get there before my trip in May, but it's a great goal. I like to run, but it will take me some serious walking before I'm back to running.
Current weight: 209
Goal weight: 145
start date: 1/1/08
obstacles: stress, sedentary job at a computer, 2 young kids, & I struggle with carbs

Chris,

You are close to my starting weight and end goal, let me know how it goes! I just moved from obese to overweight on the WII Fit and am losing fast this past week (1 lb. per day, too fast) as the eating is under control.

FYI, for the WII Fit question. It isn't really serious exercise but a good supplement to your routine, I use it to compliment my running. A new FIT exercise program will be out next year, we'll see if that one is better.

188
40-45 more to go!

Count me in, too - my friend and I have both been wanting to do WW together. Now I have even more incentive since I'm doing my first WDW family vacation in April, early May.

Name: Sonya
Age: 33
Location: IL
Exercise - Elliptical - burns the most calories for the least amount of time!
Strategy/ Goals: WW - counting points - giving up Mt. Dew
Goal: 140
Start Weight: 185
Weight Loss to Date: 0 (but I am 35 lbs thinner than 3 years ago)

Taking first WDW FAMILY Vacation in April/May, 2009

Me (popcorn CAN be healthy!), DH, DD (5), DD (3 1/2)

Okay - it's sort of "offiicial". My best friend and will be going to our first WW meeting this coming Thursday, 7/31. I'm emailing a bunch of other friends to get on the plan with me. I figured the more support I have, the better chance I have of reaching my goals!

Hi..

Can I join ? Is it a closed club ?

I have been trying, but if I had others to help & to discuss, like I am being watched, and actually try to do well so everyone can see.

Anyway.. I won't put my info in unless it's ok.

Thanks..

I'm about to derail my diet by asking DH if we can get coldstone instead of breakfast. I'm not feeling well so the ice cream is medicinal because I have a sore throat. Back to the diet on monday.

I weighed in yesterday - I lost 3.4 pounds this week (3.6 last week). My SIZE 10 PANTS FIT!!! They are a bit snug, but they fit baby!!! Hope everyone else has a good week!

 

[HALEYSMOMMOM]

Weighed in today, lost 2 more pounds, down to 153!! I think I'm going to make my goal of being in the 140s for Disney! And my ultimate goal is 140, its more in sight now.

Great job and congratulations to everyone who is doing sooo well! And, if you're not, don't despair, I survived a very long 2 month plateau. It's discouraging, but don't give up!!

 

[Julylady]

I weighed in this morning and was down two pounds from last week!

Here is hoping everyone has a great week!

Wow! Erin you are amazing. Everyone here is a real inspiration. I have only lost a pound this first week but if I'm being honest I didn't watch my diet as much as I should have. I did exercise everyday so it's a start. I can't wait for the day my Wii fit stops telling me I'm overweight!

 

[LovinPooh]

I am scared to step on the scale today . DH took me to Subway twice last week and I munched like crazy over the weekend.

I have been at this since March and am just getting so impatient now.

You look amazing Erin!

Good luck to everyone and keeping on keeping on

Okay - I have finally gotten all the baby weight off - and DD turns 1 next month! I am down to 128 and want to lose another 5-10 pounds before our Disney trip in September. Those last few pounds will be the hardest for me!

I'm right there with you! I have a 1 year old and am trying to lose about 6 pounds to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight. It has been SO tough though! She is a huge snacker and I find it hard to say no. I'm just trying to keep all junk out of the house, stop baking, and stop eating out! I'll do well and lose a few, but then slip and gain them back. We're going to WDW in September too, and I want to be at my goal by then.

 

[lorainfam]

Just checking in.... I am down another 1 pound this week!!

Current weight:220
goal:175 *45 more to go!!!

 

[Erin13178]

Well I did horrible with my eating this weekend. AF is here, and I consumed tons of salt. Soooo the grand total of weight I gained in 3 days was 6 lbs, lol. Yep 6 lbs. I'm hoping by tomorrow I'm down a few lbs.

 

[Ilvolare]

I want to eat everything in the house and go out and eat everything. So to this will pass but right now I want some sugar and a Dr. Pepper. I just keep thinking 45 more days till Disney .

So yesterday I was up 6 lbs from last Friday. Today I'm down 4 lbs from yesterday. Still up a lb and a half from Friday, but that is MUCH better then yesterday. Isn't it amazing how salt affects what we weigh?
