WISH checkin thread week of November 30, 2003

[SnackyStacky]

Wow! I thought I'd be late checking in, but I'm starting the thread!!!!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday and enjoyed themselves!

I lost 3 pounds this week. (But I also weighed in the night before Thanksgiving! )

If you gained this week, don't worry! Thanksgiving happens! Just get back on program, and move downward!

Wow, I had a terrifically BAD week--could it have been the Ricky Road brownies, the pecan pie, the apple pie, the 4 different servings of mashed potatoes, or did the fact I didn't exercise add to my condition: Argh!! I am up 6 pounds. DH and I both slipped this week. Here's hoping for a better week next week, and for those who lost weight or maintained "Pat yourselves on the back--you did well"

I did great every day since I started Atkins Wednesday....until today. This morning I got up and weighed myself..I was down five pounds (well more like 4 1/2 I guess) then we went to a small luncheon. It was for us so we didn't bring any food. On the buffet there was spaghetti and meatballs and rigatoni...That did it...I had some (after almost no carbs for four straight days!) Then I figured, "well, if you gonna cheat...make it worth your while" so I had pie too. I plan to get right back on the wagon though.

I've been dancing around the same number for a few weeks now...

I need about 1 1/2 lbs to get a new clippie, and I want it before our Christmas vacation at WDW.

I've been doing Curves every day that they're open, but did cheat a bit on Thursday.

This is one HUMONGUOUS plateau!!

 

[lowe@massed.net]

I'm down 2 lbs. from last week. Handle Thanksgiving well and managed to stay on plan every day! No exercise though, so that's my goal for this week!

 

[ead79]

I was up 0.8 this week. I was a little disappointed, but I guess that's not too bad considering we had company in town. Onward and downward!

166.6/164.4/125.0

 

[jazyjewel]

I'm down 4.5 pounds!!! I love this new 20 pound clippie!!!
Congrats to all those that lost let's keep that willpower strong as we go through the hardest time of the year!!!

Well I'm happy (I think ) to report that I am ONLY up .6 of a pound. Considering that I have been "off plan" basically for 5 days as we have had some family things going on everyday. I knew it was coming and I've got the house stocked with healthy food for next week so onward and downward. I was afraid I would have to give up my clippie so I'm happy that this is the only "damage" that I did. Maybe it will jump start my metabolism too!

First week back and I'm down one so I get my 5lb clippie back

Now here's hoping for a really good week.

for me - we are leaving Wed my usual WI day. I did a WI check today as I didn't officially count my pts over the long weekend and I have maintained!! I'm actually thrilled with that! I'm hanging in at 134, which is 2 lbs from goal and my 20 lb clippie. I hope to maintain around here through the holidays and then resume loss-mode in January. I'm not putting high expectations on myself over December with vacation and Christmas.

Thanks WISH buddies for making this dream possible before my trip of a lifetime!!!

AFter my gain last week I am very happy to report that the whoosh fairy came and paid me a visit and I'm down 3 lbs. Best of all this put my over my 10% WW mark which means that since I've started this journey I've lost 10% of my body weight (for me that was 21.5 lbs)! I'm so proud of myself for staying with this and so grateful to all of you for your help and support.

We leave tomorrow morning for WDW for the week. I'm going to enjoy myself, but I'm also going to try and practice my portion control that I've learned with WW. I also know I'll get lots of great walking in so I hope I come back with maybe only a small gain.

Congrats to all the losers and for those who maintained or gained - good job for coming and reporting. Your focusing on a healthier lifestyle is fantastic.

Have a great week everyone!

I maintained last week. That's not too bad since I was away from home for four days. I made wise choices for Thanksgiving but didn't get in nearly my water quota and didn't exercise at all. Hopefully, this week will be THE week for me to finally lose.

Hi, everyone! Well, my news isn't the greatest: I gained three pounds over the Thanksgiving weekend! BUT, I'm back in the groove today and am hoping to see some great results this month! I want that 20 lb. clippie by the new year!

[rasnlms]

Hi All Well I maintained this week - considering the holiday and I did not count points I am actually happy . I started counting yesterday - hope to be back on track!!

 

[Samandmom]

I am happy to say that I have lost 1.5lbs this week considering it was a Holiday weekend. I just need to loose another 1.5 to get my 10lb clippie. I think all the walking I did Saturday and Sunday at the mall really helped.

Good luck to everyone else!

 

[bambii]

much I lost since the last time I posted so I will just post how much weight I have lost all together since I started WISH. a grand total of 24 pounds...


yeah ...

 

[LisaTx]

I had a double whammy this week. Thanksgiving and TOM. I'm happy to say that I stayed completely on plan for Thankgiving but probably ate too much salt. I think I'm going to quit adding as much salt as the recipe calls for when I bake.

Overall I'm down .2 lbs and I'm thrilled with that.

 

[DoeWDW]

This past week has gone by in a blur! I don't even remember what I weighed last week! I'm at 130 and happy with that, after losing 1 post-Thanksgiving Day pound.
