Well didn't lose anything which I guess is a good thing. I wasn't able to workout much this past week because I am in the middle of doing a body cleanse and they advise to not do heavy workouts. I started the last week of cleanse on Monday so I started doing to the gym again and doing light workouts. Hopefully by next wednesday it will pay off a little and I can see another drop in weight.

Mood
Well I went to a party saturday and had normal food for the night. I ate maybe 1/4 of what was on my plate, but I guess it was too much. the pound I lost last week has now returned. 8 weeks of this and as of today I have lost nothing. When I started 8 weeks ago I was 168 - gained 4 pounds (Been telling myself it's muscle, but who knows anymore) and now I'm stuck at this weight. I've even worked out 2x in a day here and there trying to move things along. This really blows. I'm going to the thyroid doctor tomorrow. I hope he can shed a little light on this. For now I am totally disappointed and want nothing to do with egg whites and wheat toast this morning.

Re: *~Weekly Weigh In Wednesday~*
I know it's hard Phyllis but try not to get discouraged. I know it doesn't make much sense, but maybe the reason you are not losing anything is because you are working out 2x a day and not giving your body enough fuel for the exercise. You need to eat to build up your metabolism so your body can work harder at burning off calories during workouts. Make sure your are eating at least 5x a day
Breakfast Snack Lunch Snack Dinner
NO late night snacking! I would try if possible to not eat anything after 7:30-8:00pm.

Re: *~Weekly Weigh In Wednesday~*
Yea I hear ya. I'm probably trying too hard. I just wish I saw something. Anything. Even if I didn't lose anything and my clothes just fit better. But nothing. It's getting crazy.
I plan out everything I eat. I eat breakfast and usually have a fruit for snack. Lunch and maybe a fruit or box of raisins for snack. Then I have a yogurt b4 work. At work I bring either a salad and 1/2 turkey sandwich or a healthy choice soup w/ 1/2 sandwich. While at work I'll snack on some pretzels and a treat myself to 1 serving of low fat graham crackers or something along those lines. All day I drink water. I buy little ziploc bags like they are going out of style and keep snacks w/me so I don't get the urge to go to the vending machine. Not eating past 8:00 is a problem for me 3 nights during the week bc I work nights and don't get my dinner break until 9. But the other nights I try my best to not eat late at night. And if I'm desperate I'll have some celery and carrots or something.
This morning I was ready to give up totally. And then realized what if I wasn't working out for this 8 weeks? I probably would have gained a lot more weight. SO with that, I am on my way into my office/gym to hop on that good for nothing elliptical yet again.
Thanks for the encouragement.

No problem. And one other thing... I am not sure what your workouts are like (if you just stick to one type of machine) but try and vary it up. Sometimes that helps.

good luck! I have the same story as you. Lost 35 lbs on weight watchers pre-FI, and gained a chunk of it back after we started dating. Now I am trying to lose back what I gained and then some since I never reached my initial goal.

Well the last few weeks I've been going through some hard times health wise. I thought I was down to 206 according to one doctor then the next week another doctor told me I was right back at 216. I really didn't take that well and I'm sure someone's scale is off. The 214 I got at the gym last night so I'm not sure how accurate that is. This weekend I plan to buy a new scale so I can do my weigh-ins at home and at least they'll be consistent. Friday I meet with a nutritionist so I'm thinking I'll start to see more results in the following weeks

Ok that's it.
When I go to the doctor tomorrow I'm going to ask him about WW. I keep hearing positive things about it want to try it really bad! BUT I'm not sure with my thyroid condition if it will be of any use to me now.
Let's see what he says.

Everything feels so up in the air in my life right now so i'm feeling a little stressed and uncertain. I only lost about 1 lb this week since FH and I were eating out a bit. However, I started spinning classes back up and went last friday and again yesterday and plan on going tomorrow! I bought a month pack of classes!! wooohoo I have 1.5 wks before i'm home in NY so i'm going to try to be realllly good so I can enjoy grandma's homemade pasta!

Re: *~Weekly Weigh In Wednesday~*
1 pound is great! Don't think of that as a bad thing. It's honestly better to lose the weight gradually instead of gunning to drop double digit's in a week. You have a much better chance of keeping the weight off with gradual weight loss.

I have been feeling great ever since I started what i like to call the 'Kardashin' diet. It started with a two day cleanse only fruits and veggies and a cleansing juice that tasted like orange gatorade(yummy). day two was hard but now I am on to the next phase. I feel so healthy and energized. I am doing this diet with a few girls from work and having a person to keep you in check definately helps.
