Weigh in day for me! Despite having four meal related social events this week PLUS dinner at my ILs (MIL thinks if you don't have fourth helpings you're dissing her food!) I was down 5.5 this morning! Still waiting for 20 to start running but will start walking this week. I'm taking this week off and the kids are in camp (first time off without kids in 12 years!!) so I should have no excuse to not get some exercise, right????

That is exciting! We must have about the same amount to lose.

Weigh in day and I am SHOCKED!!! I struggled last week (Wednesday and Thursday to be specific) but still lost 2.8 lbs for a total of 11.6.

I promise to religiously complete my food log this week and find a few activity opportunities-- I am SUCH a couch potato

Nope, no excuses at all. I'll have to get more disciplined about walking after my beagle (15 yo) dies. Right now I walk her anywhere from once to four times a day. I guess when she passes, I'll be able to walk faster.

It is really exciting! My main goal is to lose 116 pounds. After that, I will see if I am comfortable there or if I need to lose a few more. I have never been that small in my adult life, so I have no idea what it looks like!

Congrats to everyone on your weight loss last week! Let's kill it again this week!

Hang in there! You can do it, I'm havin the same feeling. Yesterday after I to took DD and her friends to the movies. I decided to treat them to a snack. Well, they wanted to go to Gigi's cupcakes. Google it they are a chain, VERY dangerous place. I can't believe I walked out of there without a bite. It was really hard.

You had to make me go there, didn't you?!

Good Job! I also struggle to complete my food journal. I get very bad at it when I know I'm not making the best choices.

I really had a rough night last night. I was feeling really down and so I though I should treat myself. I went to Wal Mart and bought a few things and then in the check out line I picked up the king sized Reese's peanut butter cups. I thought I'm feeling down, I deserve this, It will cheer me up. On the drive home I couldn't wait to rip into them. Then it hit me. Why do I think eating 12 points of chocolate and peanut butter will make me feel better. In the minute I would feel good but tomorrow morning when I had slept off the stress of the day I would regret it. I was proud of myself for choosing not to eat them and over coming the emotional eating for at least 1 night. I

I have to lose 120 to get to the top number that WW sets. That's what I was in high school and I can't imagine being that size again. I still have hip hugger bell bottoms in storage from my high school years, lol. I should dig them out. They are size 14. About fifteen years ago I had my size 10 (at the time) daughter try them on and they were too small for her. Sizes have definitely changed over the last 40 years.

Good for you! You would have spent a few minutes devouring them and hours regretting it. You made the right choice. Victory! Now, who are you going to give them away to?

I'm craving Berger cookies (you have to be from the Baltimore area to know what I'm talking about) and just figured out that they are 4 points each. I'll be in Berger cookie territory next week, so I may just have to budget for some. It's not like I can get them all the time. So I do allow for those items that aren't readily available to me at the local grocery stores.

Way to go, ladies! Keep writing everything down... The iPad WW app is making it easier for me.

I would be thrilled to lose 60, but probably need to lose 80. Can't think about the total number, just have to set manageable goals, feel good about meeting them, and take it one week (or day or hour!) at a time.

haha... I was thinking about that. I stuck them in the freezer and thought that my family can use them this weekend to make Reese's cup s'mores. Its 6 points for 1, and I may just budget to have one . . . . well see.

Great job both of you!

My kids love going there. They make mini versions of whatever that days specials are but you have to buy a dozen of the minis. I'm still waiting for your butterfingers cookbook, lol.

WI day today. Down 4.4 lbs for a total of 13.2. Hubby was down 6 lbs for a total of 19. We were both surprised to have such big losses.

Today has been blown out of the water though. We are taking a mini vacay and are eating out tonight and tomorrow. Then on Saturday I'm going on a wine tour. Yikes. I just plan on being really good in between and doing my best to muddle through. I brought some fruit for the watermark tomorrow. That and all the chasing the kids around should help counteract it a little I hope.

Hope everyone is doing well!

I was overweight in high school, so I am pretty close to high school size right now. About 45 more pounds and I will be in uncharted territory!

WI last night. Down 2.6!

My meeting starts in about an hour. I'm going but I dont want to. It's my official monthly staff weigh-in today and I'm going to see that my efforts this week have not been rewarded with a loss again! I'll have to do better this week, maybe eat less cherries. I'll let you know later how I did.

There have been some amazing results at the scale from you guys this week. Good luck to the rest of you who still have to weigh in.
