Hello. My name is Englan. I don't have anything against weighing yourself everyday but for me it's becoming something that I just don't want to do anymore. I am going to start weighing myself every week from now on. I'm going to start Sunday, September 1, 2008.

Anyone please feel free to join. You can join anytime you want and just keep track of the weekly dates. Good luck to all who join. :waving:

09/01/08 - 219

Sure!

09/01/08 -164.7
10/04/08- 158.5, Sorry haven't been here every week- should be back in action now!
10/08/08- 155.2

09/01/08 - 219
09/08/08 - 216
09/15/08 - 215
09/22/08 - 220 (wow-what bloating does to me during PMS) UGH!

Daily weigh-ins for me are depressing. One day I am up one day I am down. I would much rather do the weekly weigh-in. So Monday I weighed in at 188.1 OMG!!! So I am here to stay for a while.

I'm with you on the depressing daily weigh ins. Welcome and good luck!

I am extremely against weighing daily... just personally. I get too obsessive.

So weekly I get weighed at a group meeting (I'm doing a program similar to weight watchers called "Weigh-Less" here in South Africa)

I weigh in on Thursdays.

Here's my first weigh in:

25 Sep 2008 - 178.1 (80.8kg - Next week it's 70s for me!!!!)

Welcome! :waving: I become too obsessive when I weigh myself everyday also so that's why I posted this thread. I figured I'd have a few people who were with me. Good luck.

Yea!!! I did it I went to Las Vegas for 5 days and managed not to gain weight. This week I am down almost a pound to 187.2.

Awesome job!!

Oo I'd like to join in with this, last time I posted weigh ins it did help me stay on track. I prefer to measure progress weekly too because it keeps me focused on the long term. I weigh in on Fridays so I shall come back and edit this tomorrow!

Great job losing those two pounds. :hurray:

I'll post again next week! :)

My starting weight was 200lbs & i started my diet & exercise plan on 19th July 2008. Can't remeber my past weigh ins but i'll start from last week. I really find it hard not to be tempted to get on the scales each morning but i'm going to try not to.
27.9.08 - 183.6
4.10.08 - 178.4

Hehe, if I was losing as fast as you I'd also be tempted to jump on the scale more often! :p

But seriously now, welcome... will watch your progress over the weeks. Break that scale mentality! :hurray:

2008-09-22 251

Wow, Bavaro, some awesome losses there... have you just begun? What are you busy doing to lose the weight?

Hi, yes I just started 2 weeks ago, I am always very ambitious to start with and I get lazy later on. I found this forum recently and I hope you guys keep me in track. I just reduced my calori intake and don't do much of else. I know these are early pounds and they go fast and I will platue later on. I should start exercising but I am too busy and too lazy!
Wish me luck.

I'm going to weigh-in twice a week, just to make sure I'm on track. Maybe eventually I'll bring it down to only once a week.

Even though I'm 4 weeks pregnant, I plan on continuing to eat well and exercising. I will try my best to keep you on track but it looks like you are doing well on your own. Start slow with the exercise and once you start doing it you'll want to keep on. Good luck.

Thanks englangrover, I will need all the help I can get, 50 Kg weight gain in 5 years and now I want to lose it fast! I should be patient and persistent.
Wish you a safe and easy pregnancy.

02 Oct - 175.5 (2.6 down, woohoo!!!!)
09 Oct - 175.9 (0.4 pounds up... take that as maintenance... but REALLY stepping it up and cleaning up my diet this week!!!)

It looks like your weight loss is pretty consistent. You'll do well. Good luck

I haven't posted in over a week. That is because there was not change on the scale. I was getting pretty discouraged. I joined another weight loss website today so I had to take my measurements. I was excited to realize that I have lost almost 2 inches in my waist.

Usually when the weight doesn't come off and you measure your inches that's ticket. That's happened to me a couple of times. Don't get discouraged. Obviously you are doing great....2 inches...great job :hurray:

Hello all, I'm going to join too!! I don't weigh daily.. I prefer just once a week like you guys.. Anyways, I'm not expecting a loss this week, just hoping for no gain!! I messed up this weekend and this whole week wasn't great bc I was looking at old pictures last Sunday and Monday I started a diet.. So I didn't have groceries or anything just made do.. but there is no time like the present.. But tomorrow is my first weigh-in so tonight I'll post start weight and my measurements too.. bc I like to see both. And I'll edit tomorrow Anyways, can't wait to get to know you guys!!

Start Weight: 240.8lbs

I take measurements all over.. So I can see inches come off everywhere
Measurements:

Neck: 14
Upper Arm: 15.5
Forearm: 10
Bust: 49.5
Waist: 38
Stomach (just below navel): 51

Hey you are doing great. Welcome by the way. I'm not going to be doing well for awhile because after losing 20 pounds I got pregnant. It was a huge surprise but I really enjoy reading about everyone's progress. I'll jump back on after I have the baby.

thanks, and CONGRATS on the baby!! One of my best friends is pregnant right now.. She finds out what she's having tomorrow I can't wait!!

Cool. You seem like a great friend to be so excited for her. Good luck on the weight loss. You'll do well

Well done to everyone who has been losing weight and congrats about the baby englangrover!

My eating has been all over the place recently so I've been too embarrassed to post weigh ins :blush5: and I've just been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and the main side effect of my medication is "significant weight gain"! :( But I will not let the pills win and undo my hard work! So this is me getting back on the wagon!

31/10/08 - 116 (up 1.5lb from last time I posted, am just glad it's not more really...)

I also just could not do daily weigh ins because of all the weight fluctuations
Mom of twins feb 07 and new son June 22 08 ..I have to begin now the weight loss regimen.Saw a recent pic of myself and went into tears!:nopity:
So here i am ready to battle the bulge

October 14 -230

Okay I weight in on tuesday reluctantly as I was convinced that
all the multigrain bagels(320 calories each) and my love tabbouleh or tabouli
salad would cause me to gain alot of weight in fact I prepared myself for weight gain but instead I lost 5 pounds! :hurray:
I'll be eating more tabbouleh from now on lol

Congrats babyphat!

28/11/08 - 111.5 :banghead: How HOW is this possible?! It has to be against the laws of physics! I stayed under my cal limit and exercised for over an hour every day. I never believed in plateau until now :( Surely something has to come off soon? I did get out my tape measure to see if there was any change measurements wise but nothing apart from possibly 0.5in from my bust and that may just have been because I was breathing out more. I definitely haven't been calculating my cals wrong so I don't know what the problem is.

To Leedsboi86 -come join in the fun! We're not competing or anything, just here to support each other so it doesn't matter when you join. The more the merrier :)

I'm down 13lbs and it hasn't even been a month. I'm shooting to lose another 20 before christmas when I meet the boyfriend's family.

I haven't "officially" started my new life yet... err... I know that sounds crappy!!!!!

I start tomorrow though and I think I should commit to something like posting my weight so I can see how much progress I am/not making haha.

So, I'll go ahead and put my dates up - I'm gonna weigh myself tomorrow and post it up! I'm pretty nervous about it lol. No one has ever known how much I weigh besides me and the fat doc haha. My fiance doesn't even know!!!!

(the 250 is just an estimate until I actually buy a scale ;[ )

I haven't even gone to the gym in 2 days! If I was I'd be kicking more butt, I'm pretty happy though.

13 more lbs before December 22nd!... AT LEAST.
