How did everyone do today?

I lost 0.9 lbs. I am just glad I didnt gain, but I am almost at my goal weight. The WW leader told me to set my goal higher than I want to be so if I gain a lb or 2 I wont have to pay again, but I can go under that and not pay. How did everyone else do?

Re: How did everyone do today?

I gained one pound yesterday when I weighed in.

But I am not upset or anything. I just shrugged it off. I know I ate bad all week and I focussed on the positive. I lost 20 pounds (well now 19) and that is more important to me then a 1 pound gain.

So this week i will do a lot more walking, drink more water and when I get on that scale on Saturday it will say you have lost

Re: How did everyone do today?

My mom gained 2 lbs this week, and she is like this is the week she actually started walking. The WW leader said that you may not see results right away, but 2 days from now or at next weigh in you can get on the scale and see the results then. It is more important to chart the overall progress than what happened one week. We are in it for the long term, and we know this! It even says in the WW book that is physiologically impossible to lose more than 2 lbs of fat a week, (after the first few weeks of water loss) because if you are losing too much too fast every week, you are breaking down muscle which is bad.

Re: How did everyone do today?

I started in January and I was loosing a pound or less a week, but when you look at the big picture those little loses add up to a big loss. Some weeks I had a big loss of 2 pounds, but I always made sure to look at the overall picture.

FI and I are doing it together and we are each others support

Today is a new day and this is a new week

Re: How did everyone do today?

There is a formula in the book about plateuing how to determine your average weekly weight loss. They dont give this book out routinely, but if you ask for it they will give it to you. I cant use it yet because you need to be in it at least 5 weeks in order to do it, and I am only on week 4.

Re: How did everyone do today?

i woke up late and didn't get to weigh in.
and my scale is broken so i have no idea how i did.
and then i had ice cream for dessert tonight. i am so ashamed

Re: How did everyone do today?

oh don't feel so bad!! A little ice cream won't kill you, just don't eat it every day! I had ice cream too today.

I am at a little over 6lbs lost in the past 3 1/2 weeks. I'd like another 6-10 in the next 5 (before the wedding) And my total since last September is about 14 lbs. lost so far. It would have been more but we had a lot of family stuff go on in the past year that really messed up my exercising and my eating habits.

Re: How did everyone do today?

Well, I gained one pound, but I KNOW it's water I'm retaining, I can feel it. So I will hopefully lose a little extra for this week.
