Losing weight for Mickey

[tmatthews]

Thanks sharpmom for reporting that....not very nice

Here's the story of my life....I ordered nutrisystem and UPS lost my box!! It says delivered on the tracking...called ups and they say it is on my porch...IT"S NOT!!! Is this an omen?????????????????????????????

Is it too late, is it, is it????? When I decided that we were going to WDW (No, I didn't give my family the option of not going.), I knew I had to get those extra pounds off. Not too many extra but they have been around long enough. What do I need to tell?
My name is Britney
We leave October 4th
I have been cutting back, exercising and lost some already.
Started at 143.5 and now I am at 138
I want to get to 134 by the beginning of June.
I want to be at 130 by August.
I want to be at 125 by the time we leave.
I want to not gain a pound on vacation and eat anything I want. I figure I will walk it ALL off, right????

I finally got to weight in this morning . Last Wednesday I was up to 197 due to those naughty cheese fries, but after that day I started eating right again, and getting on the treadmill twice a day 40 minutes each time. So this morning I was SUPER nervous to step on the scale..... I was down to 192 1/2. I was really hoping to be down a pound or two more (189 would have been amazing!), but I'm happy with where I'm at. And also, I have a feeling that I did lose more than the scale is reading, I just gained a bit of muscle weight due to all the walking I've been doing. So as of today I have exactly 10 weeks till Baltimore - that means that if I lose 2 pounds a week I can be down 20 more pounds! That will put me at 172 still which would be so amazing! I haven't seen that number on the scale in 5-7 years!!!! I have to say, I don't know what the majority diet is on here, but WW is just the best! I can't believe I spent all these years being fat when I couldn't have just followed WW and been skinny! I still have a long way to go, and its still going to take a long more time, but I'm on my way, and so is everyone eles on here!!!

I'm in! I actually went to a WW meeting last night - my first in a long time! My 10% is 24 - so that's my first goal... well... actually my first goal is making it through a DAY!! Our Disney trip is scheduled for December - so I think I have a good chance of at least making my 10% - but hoping for lots more!

I started working out in the mornings to jillian michaels (biggest loser trainer). I have to say she is mean. I feel wonderful when I am done but I want to quit while Im working out. Last week when I started I weighed 142 Yesterday I got on the scale and weighed 138. 4 POUNDS BABY. Just from working out 5 days out of 7 and eating better (better is good for me).

COngrats on loss!!! The box of nutrisystem did come late late last night so I started it today! Gotta tell you....I am really hungry! I am sure it is mostly in my head! But I am going to commit to this and see what I can do!

I want in too I want to actually be IN the pics this year in Sept. Last time I just avoided them, I want my DD to look back and see what a great time we had together. I am still trying to lose my baby weight, DD is now 7. I am starting to watch what I eat and making better decisions. I plan on starting to excercise. I wonder is it actually better to go to WW or just do the plan at home on your own? I just can't see spending the weekly fee right now. What's your thoughts? Does anyone have any good suggestions on diet or excercise? Good luck to all.

I do not know how much I weigh, but I would like to loose at least 40lbs. before our trip.

2 days of nutrisystem down.....it really is a nobrainer and so far the foods are decent. I am not much of a salad eater or anything good for that matter! here's hoping this is the one that works for me!!!!!!!!


mommytoone: I am a fan of Leslie Sansone. She does walking cds. Look her up- I got a set from QVC. It is easy to follow. what has led me to nutrisystem at this point are our photopass pictures! I couldn't figure who the "Fat lady" was with my family!!!!!!!!!

 

[Aliceacc]

I have been so bad!!!!

But, boy, those brownies were good

Back on track tomorrow!

 

[lulu2]

I'm totally in... I'm tired of not being in any pictures and when I am, I hate looking at them. I joined ww this week and I have excercised everyday! Also, I have actually stayed right on track with points. It feels good!

start date:4/2/08
start weight:172
goal:17

 

[Aliceacc]

lulu, your goal is "17"??

Come on, thin would be nice, but....

OOPS, did I write that wrong? I meant my goal is to lose 17 pounds, not weigh 17 pounds....

 

[Aliceacc]

I probably misread it, but after eating those brownies tonight, it just struck me as funny!

Here are some excellent articles from "Woman's Health" magazine. Who knows, maybe one of these will be the one that helps us all to lose the next five pounds!

Nutrisystem works well it takes about a week or two to get used to eating small portions but after that it is easy and the weight comes off. I did it last year and lost 29 lbs in three months. You don't have to exercise on Nutrisystem but it will work much faster if you do! Stick to the plan and you will be happy.

I'm so happy... my weigh-in on Friday said I was down 5 whole pounds in a week. That's what running will do... literally run your butt off!

Starting weight 2/28: 189.2
Weight as of 4/4: 176.6
Total lost: 12.6
Goal: 149.2

Over 1/4 of the way to my goal!

Hello all! So today was the first day in about two weeks that I didn't get on the treadmill at all - though I know I deserve a break, I feel guilty but I did use my arm weights.
DH and I dropped off the kids at his parents house and went to a mall very far away, but it was nice, and we had a very good salad for lunch, though he didn't buy me that geougous Louis Vuitton bag I saw....
I made a promise to myself that I would only look at the scale once a week, on Fridays, but for whatever reason I cheated today and looked! It was OK though, I lost a pound between my friday weight in and this morning - not bad.
Thats about it - gotta get back to my regular schedual tomorrow! Treadmill twice and lifting weights twice as well. Gotta get myself in tattoo shape for Baltimore - just under 9 weeks to go!!!

Haven't posted in awhile. Kind of holding steady here . . . not really gaining but not losing much. SharpMomofTwo is inspiring me to try to get in two workouts! I managed to do it yesterday and today so we will see! (But during the week is much harder when I have to be out the door by 7:45!) Good luck to the newbies and all of our weight watchers!
