WISH check week of 4-20

tiggerlover · Apr 23, 2003

I don't have time to read all of the posts since I still have company, but I did want to sign in for the week. I have lost -0- pounds this week, but on the flip side of that I have not gained any either, which I am happy about since I have been going off program while my family is here. They leave on Friday and that means I will go back to my old routine and lose that 3/4 of a pound to grab that 20# clippie!

Congrats to any one who was a loser this week.

ahutton Way to go! You've lost a total of 6 pounds on WISH? That's terrific! Where's your new clippie. LOL, I would have had that 5 pound loss clippie added so fast, Kelsie's head would still be spinning.

2 pounds of fat gone forever, that is a great accomplishment. I hope you are proud of yourself because I'm certainly proud of you. I love your positive attitude and determination. If you look behind you on that long road ahead you will see everyone of us WISHers, we'll be right there with you.

You are doing great!

Beanie Now I know where that dust cloud came from, you! Look at you go! My goodness, another 7 pounds gone forever and this is just your second week on Atkins. You are really having great success with this new way of eating.

I see you didn't waste any time adding that new 15 pound loss clippie to your signature. It's just gorgeous! So shiny and bright. Are you smiling today? Because you sure made me smile.

I'm proud of you sweetie. Now you can have some of that candy if you want.

Be proud of yourself because I'm sure proud of you.

Liz Congratulations on losing .8 pounds this past week. That's over 3 sticks of butter. Good job! It can get discouraging, I know, that the more successful we are and the more we lose, the slower we lose. But look at you, you did great this week! I'm proud of you.

You are doing so well with this new healthy eating plan. You are a great example and inspiration for me. I'm so glad you are part of my support group.

tiggerlover What an inspiration you are for me! Look at you. You have had company and been eating out, off program and you still maintained your weight. That is awesome! I am really proud of you, I truly am. You will have that new clippie soon, I know you will.

I miss seeing you on WISH since you've had company. I sure hope you are getting extra hugs for when they go home. We miss you here, though.

I weigh in tomorrow. Onward and downward everyone!

You guys are all doing so well! It is so inspiring. I hadn't posted on the WISH thread for quite a while because I just didn't feel worthy of it, because I wasn't doing the plan. Going through the motions, but still overeating at every opportunity. But since I posted my confessional, I have slowly come around, made small strides every day for my spiritual, emotional, and physical health. Largely due to the INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF SUPPORT I have received here. I can't imagine my life without all of you. You have all been so sweet and caring.

I have woken up with a new sense of order in my life. Pretty exciting, exhilarating, and feeling just a bit timid as well. I don't know what this journey will hold for me, but I am ready to embrace it and run with it. The WW challenge that was started today is my starting point, and I am just ready!

wovenwonder · Apr 23, 2003

Yipee for Vija that 10 pound clippie will soon be yours!

nativetxn · Apr 23, 2003

PRINCESS VIJA I have to tell you that it breaks my heart that you didn't "feel worthy" to post on the check in thread in the past. {{{HUGS}}} my friend.

You have a new motivation and determination now and it's shining through in your words. I'm not only happy for you, I am proud of you!

I don't know what this new journey has in store for you either. Well, that's not actually true. I know some of the stuff you have in store now: success, support, companionship and friendship. Those are some pretty good things to look forward to, don't you think?

You can do this my friend, you are already doing it. I'm glad you are beginning to believe in yourself now because I already believed in you--so did Jody and Kelsie and Holly and everyone else. Hey! You're a WISHer and all WISHers are winners!

Another one bites the dust, and another one gone, another one gone, ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!!!

(I lost another ONE this week!)

Thank you all for your inspiration!!!!!!

glo · Apr 23, 2003

I did not weigh in this week...I cheated this past weekend, and I have yet to get back into ketosis. I have been doing the Alex challenge since yesterday. I am already pretty down...I did not want to get anymore discouraged than I am.

Step over here...let me have you look at what I see. There is a 15 pound weight loss clippie in your signature! There is no pound clippie in mine. You are still in the game. Don't be discouraged! Don't give up. Walk in place for a few minutes tonight to the music here. That might make you feel better and have some water...ice cubes to chew on for your frustration.

karebear1 · Apr 23, 2003

glo- I feel your pain! You don't have to weigh in this week- just wait until next week to do it if it makes you feel better. CHeer up- we're all here for you!

AlreadyexcitedGrammy · Apr 23, 2003

Late in the day to post but just getting down from cloud 9. I was apprehensive to step on the scale but I did and to my great surprise I lost 4 pounds this week !!

Oh yeah - this WW counting is the one for me. Don't know why it took me so long to try this "one" I have tried many many others. But during all those times I did not have the essential ingredients of all you WISHers to help me keep on track.

Thank you buddies, and just everyone who posts, love to read your comments. My heart leaps for joy when there is a loss and I feel the disappointment when there is a "slump" to get through.

But we got each other and that is what is helping me - thanks to every WISHer - you helped me see that I can do it!!

Total 10.5 loss :Pinkbounc

campingcorgi · Apr 24, 2003

I was down 2.4 at weigh-in yesterday!! That means I'm down 13 pounds on WISH and a total of 43!!

I get so excited when I have a loss so I can come tell y'all!!!

lynr · Apr 24, 2003

Well I stepped on the scale this morning expecting the worst since I had gained a pound over the weekend, so imagine my surprise that I not only had I lost that 1 lb but I lost 2 1/2 more. Now I am down a total of 15lbs while on the WISH board.

I am going shopping for my new clippie.

Congrats to all the loosers this week and to all the people that didn't loose don't get down just move on to next week it will come off in time.

Vija!!!!! If I had known you didn't think you felt worthy I would have pmed you so fast your head would have spun!!!! I will let you in on a secret. I have been starting the WISH thread every week for 2 years!! And this is the fist time I have been really serious about my program!!! Before I just played a little here and there and such but I finally got serious. But I was here everyweek good or bad!!!!! So welcome back and NEVER EVER Think you are not worthy to be here!!

Good job everyone on the weight loss this week everyone is doing great!! For those who have stayed the same or gained hang in there!!! We are all here for you!!!

perdidobay · Apr 24, 2003

I'm back from my cruise

and I am sad to report I gained 2.5 lbs

But I am getting back on track

I used to snack on junk food, telling myself I deserve it for having a bad day, etc.
Now I tell myself I deserve a great looking and healthy body!
A great treat for me is nonfat yogurt.... 6oz cup has 100 calories, 25% of daily calcium requirement and tastes good! I love the pina colada flavor

Keep up the good work everyone!!!!

CarolMN · Apr 24, 2003

I want to thank everyone who has posted. Everytime I read a thread on this board, it helps me to stay motivated! Haven't posted for awhile because I haven't been losing - but of course I can't expect to lose if I don't stick to the plan! I have kept to my exercise plan pretty well and I definitely attribute that to reading all of your posts. Even those that report negative or no progress help because of all the great support they generate. On several occasions I was going to skip Curves, but after reading a few threads, I did go!

Anyway, I'm back on the plan (it's been good for my blood sugar) and I am thrilled to report I have lost 4 pounds since I first stated my goal on 3/30 - 10 pounds by June 6, my sister's wedding. :Pinkbounc

I can do it! I can do it! There's still time.

From now on, I'm going to post every week on the check in thread no matter what I have to report. Only one pound to go for my first clippie! That doesn't sound so hard!

Again, a great big thank you to all of you! Your posts are making a difference for me!

nicolep91 · Apr 24, 2003

Don't have good news to report this week. I'm up a lb. It's such a bummer but not exactly a surprise. I really need to do something to get back to the mindset I had a year ago when I lost over 20 lbs. I need to decide if I really want to do this or not. I mean, I know I want it, but do I really want to work for it? That's the question I should be asking myself!

I've only worked out once this week and I just ate a big chocolate chip cookie. Now, of course, I regret it and feel sick to my stomach. But, there is no turning back, I just need to make sure the rest of my day goes better.

SnackyStacky · Apr 24, 2003

I've really been bad about posting my progress, but I am doing well.

I'm continuing to lose, and have now hit my 20 pound WISH mark. Here's my totals so far:

WISH total: 20 lbs.
Grand weight loss total: 140 lbs.
Pounds till WW lifetime membership: 3.4
Pounds till personal goal: 23.4

Get that 20 pound clip ready!

Kabuli1 · Apr 24, 2003

I joined WISH awhile ago - but that was it, didn't do anything. Well this Tuesday, DH and I weighed in and started The Zone. Chose it because it was similar to a diet we had had success with before (I like high protein diets). Think we can stick with this one - if not - we're heading to Atkins next! Anyway, I'll check in next week with our progress.

First goal: 10# by son's college graduation one month from now. (Actually, think it will be more that 10#)

Total goal: 40# gone! I want to be 130 again!! AND I WILL BE!!

PRINCESS VIJA · Apr 24, 2003

I lost 2.6# this week! I am very happy. I feel reborn into the WW world!!! I am getting closer to re-earning my 5# clippie! Then I will be ready to move onto 10# clippie! YIPEEE!

WISH check week of 4-20
