WISH Check-in Thread week of November 2, 2003

[jillwdw]

I've gained 3.3lbs since my last weigh in a month ago but I am back on track. Good luck to all!

Wow - there is lots of positive news on the thread already - many congratulations to all you loosers! Those who have gained - well done for hanging in there & especially thanks for posting - we all have times when we don't loose and it helps to realise that there are others in the same boat!!

Well, I am pretty pleased again this week - as I can report a 2lb loss again! I have finally lossed the 10lb I gained during my vacation & 'I feel sorry for myself' four weeks off plan - I am pleased, but also can't help reflecting that if I hadn't strayed off my path I wouldn't be the same weight today as I was on 09/13/03!! I am counting my blessings though as when I weighed myself this past Thursday for the Thanksgiving & New Year Challenges I had lost nothing - so I was very surprised and happy that 2lb showed up (or didn't!!) after the second half of the week!

It really is all downwards from here & I only have one pound to go to get my next clippie and that will be something to celebrate!!
Good luck to all in the coming week,
Claire

I am thrilled to have maintained last week's loss, given my eating habits this week. Looking forward to a good post next week. Good luck to everyone, and congrats to all the previous posters. BTW, can anyone help me with my clippie--it doesn't work, and all I did was change the 25 to 30??

NCRedding - concgratulations you are golden! The reason your clippie doesn't work is that at 30 lbs. you trade up from the rainbow clippie to the golden one. They are located in different places.

Follow this link to the thread that has all the clippies

All of the WISH clipart all in one place.

I am very happy to report a 1.5 lb loss this week! Feeling great about that!

Now that the loss has slowed to less than 2 lbs. a week (a very healthy rate I know) I've decided to move my new lifestyle into phase 2. After a few weeks of talking about it I finally unwrapped the WATP DVD's that were sitting on the shelf and did the 1 mile! I even used my hand weights (not the ones she uses, but they did the job). It felt really good. I'm going to work on doing it at least 3-4 times this week. Get that body moving!

Congratulations to everyone else! Whether you lost, gained or maintained you are paying attention to your new healthy lifestyle. Good for you!

Morning All

Down 2 pounds this week

After two weeks of gaining - I am thrilled - finally back on track.

Have a great week!!

Thanks for the answer! I'm sort of "stuck" on Thursdays...old habits die hard!lol. I may just weigh once for WW (I'm online only) and then again on Sunday for Wish.

BTW, your picutres that you have on your threads are motivation. What a change you've made!! Congrats on all your success.

Checking in this week 0.5 pounds lighter.
Finally went out to get new underwear yesterday....mine was way too big. I bought a ridiculously low number size and put on a pair today. My dh said it looked like I had duty in my pants!! Underwear must run VERY big!

Now, to find time to go exchange it!

Hello everyone! I lost 0.8 pounds this week, which I am happy with. Of course I hoped for a larger loss since I did make it through Halloween without a candy binge, but then I realized I had a pretty bad Sunday a week ago so that's probably why it was only 0.8 pounds. Hey--I'll take it though--at least it's in the right direction! Onward and downward this week! I hope to re-claim my 5 pound clippie in the next couple of weeks.

166.6/162.8/125.0

I lost a pound this week and one inch overall. My goal this week is to exercise a bit more. I did well last week, but I would like to do better. Wish me luck, my DS woke up with a fever last night and we all know how hectic things get when your kids get sick. But hopefully it means he will be sick now and not four weeks from now when we are in WDW.
Keep up the good work everyone!

I went off plan on Halloween and the Bloat Fairy has come to visit. I've not lost anything this week, although I'm just pleased I didn't gain.
Hope everyone has a great week

Second week of no weight loss for me, but that is okay, I lost 6 pounds all together in October so I am happy for that.
Gotta keep on track, I have been good with my exercise but that Halloween candy was getting to be too much of a temptation.

 

[TigerBear]

I gained a pound. Only worked out once though - I know that is the culprit.

<font color=maroon> Hi everyone! After a week off in Las Vegas, I am happy to report that I still managed to lose 2 lbs since my last check-in. I guess all those stairs paid off-I tried to avoid escalators whenever possible especially since I was going to the Seafood Buffet at the Rio.

WOO HOO!

 

[Beastlover]

You can add me to the maintenance group....that's okay, I am still happy at the early TOT goal, so I'll sit for a spell.

Have a great week!!!

I had a real bad week. The scale says I gained 4.5 pounds! Now, I'm hoping that most of this is water, but I must admit it's not all water. I went to a company function all weekend (3-1/2 days) and we sat in meeting and conference rooms most of the time. Then I sat in my hotel room in the evenings. Not good. And the food choices were poor.

Now, I'm not trying to put the blame anywhere but where it belongs...with me! This is my doing, so I'm responsible for the gain. I'm also responsible for the loss! And that's what I intend to do this week - get this weight back off and continue to head downward.

A little bump in the road, but I'll get this turned around soonest! I'm not relinquishing my 15 pound clippie because I intend to earn it back within the week.

Thanks for keeping me accountable! Keep up the good work.

Some movement!! On the first of each month I take my measurements. At October's measuring, I lost nothing - no inches or pounds. I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY to report that THIS measuring day, I lost 7 inches, bringing my total inches lost to 45, and I lost 1 pound which gets me the 55 pound clippie! WOOO HOOO!!! Somehow I managed to lose my Alex clippie as well, but I guess I would rather have the 55 over that! tee hee

 

[welovedis]

I lost 5 lbs according to the WW scale, but I am only counting 2 pounds of that as a loss as I was still holding my coat when I went to WI last week.

Still, I am at my lowest weight in over 7 years and thrilled.

Plus it is now officially less than 10 weeks till I run in the 2004 1/2 marathon!

 

[lulu201]

Yippee, after not losing last week, the Whoosh Fairy paid me a visit and I lost 5 pounds! I got my 10 lb. clippie today!

Keep on trying, everyone!

I lost 1.2 pounds this week, giving me a new clippie. I have now lost 36.4 pounds on WW's since 6/2/03!

I am so excited, because I now only have 11 pounds to go till I reach my WW's goal. Its starting to really get close! YIPPEE!

Congratulations to everyone, who posted here this week, especially WISHers who put on a little, because I think it is much harder to post here when you have gained a little.

This week I lost another pound which I am happy with. So come on WISHers onward and downward
