Belle Posted August 27, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Next week will be September New dates to remember More Thursday's to weigh before fall How much we lose is our call I know they say that but sometimes we try It doesn't work even being good..we want to cry That's why we're here to try our best Sometimes it's seem like it's always a test We try/do our diets/woe everyday That's the right way We will have "bump's" along the way during the year But we will lose our weight no matter what..that's why we're here So we never give up during each weigh-in We know soon we will get a WIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasi1979 Posted August 27, 2015 #2 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Hi Belle, thanks for the poem, hi to everyone else, hope you had a good week. I lost 1 kg so weight-wise the week was good. My daughter is just starting in daycare so a lot of change taking place here, September will bring my kids first birthday and I´ll be going back to work at the end of the month. How is everyone else?

nyer Posted August 27, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Good morning, all. I am back from my cruise. We had a good time, but now it's back to the real world. I gained 3 lbs on my cruise. I had just lost the 4 lbs I gained on last month's cruise! :rolleyes: Kasi, good loss. Happy First Birthday to your daughter in September. Belle, I hope that you are doing well.

shootr Posted August 27, 2015 #4 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Even after the hiccup this past weekend, still managed to lose 1, down to 196. Very pleased with that. Went to the Hawaiian place for dinner last night, only ate half and brought the rest to work for lunch today. Sounds silly but these are the little victories (not scarfing the whole plate at one sitting) that help me mentally stay satisfied and on track. Now if I can just remember that sickening feeling the day after I eat half a loaf of garlic bread... I have to admit, I don't take for granted that as long as I maintain discipline I pretty much always lose - sorry (hey, we gotta have something to compensate for having to go through life as doofuses!). But the missus is down 12 in the past month due to her eating well-she's making these fruit wheat grass smoothie things couple times a day, way low on carbs, and lean proteins for dinner. Come this weekend we have a pretty good meal plan for the camping trip. If we don't bring crap there's no crap to binge on, right? ('cept the surprise b-day cake her daughter is bringing). Have a good week everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan_In_Maine Posted August 27, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Back from our cruise - somehow managed to gain 7 # ... hopefully it is a lot of water weight :rolleyes: Went to the gym last night ... need to get motivated. Thanks for the poem Belle --- Next month is birthday month! Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winewanderer Posted August 27, 2015 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Hello, I found 1 of the 2 lbs. I lost last week, Bummer. Headed to Seattle this weekend for a memorial for a relative, always eating involved. Hope I don't gain. Belle, hope you are well. Kasi and Shootr, good losses. Jan and Rose, glad you enjoyed your cruises. We will do better next week. Have a good week, Diana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angeleski Posted August 28, 2015 #7 Share Posted August 28, 2015 This is my first weigh in. I have 161 days to my cruise and would like to loose 21 pounds. I am doing p90x workouts and meal plans. I lost 1 pound during the last week. I am on day 11 of the program. I have done all my workouts and stuck to my meal plan so far. Feeling much better and not as lazy.

Belle Posted August 29, 2015 Author #8 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Welcome Angel..Keep up the good work. Nice it makes you feel better. Diana..Have a safe trip. Sorry you have to go for that reason. Hoping you won't have a gain. Jan..Glad you had a great cruise, sure most of it is water weight. Will get some of it off next week. Yes "Birthday's" are coming..making us a "year older" Will just reverse the numbers..then will be younger. shootr..We forgive you for being a man and losing weight faster! LOL Know it's still hard for you but still..us women get a raw deal! Tell your wife congrats on her loss. Congrat on your loss too. Enjoy your camping trip! Rose..Glad you had a good cruise too. Just call it water weight and it will come off next week! You can't complain to much..You had two cruises in a short time! LOL Kasi..Congrats on having a loss. When is your daughters birthday in Sept.? Have a few that have birthdays in Sept. here. Mine is Sept. 1st. Sorry you have to back to work. Have you been off a year? If so is that how much time Germany gives mother's off or did you just take it off? Now me I stayed the same. I'm really not eating much but think to much carbs in what I eat and not exercising enough. Got to get on the ball. Everyone have a good weekend.

retiring soon Posted August 29, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 29, 2015 HI all! Jan & Rose not too bad a gain from your cruises! Glad you had a good time. Belle ~ nice ditty & follow up too. shootr ~ wow, DW is doing terrific! Congrats to her. kasi1979 ~ nice loss. Happy birthday to the little one! angeleski ~ welcome to the group & you're off to a good start. I stayed the same so better than gaining. We're going on a road trip down east to visit our DD & sightsee, with a German meal planned & also a lobster dinner so I guess the results might be pretty much the same as when cruising.;) See you on the 17th & wishing those of you with birthdays while I'm gone many happy healthy returns of the day. ~ Jo ~ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasi1979 Posted August 31, 2015 #10 Share Posted August 31, 2015 my daughters birthday is on September 12th, so we get to celebrate with the family. I was off work for a year, here in Germany you can take up to 3 years of leave after your child is born. However the state gives you money for only about 12 month, if you can manage without money you can stay home longer and if your job is one where 3 years of absence won´t put you behind... I belive lo will enjoy daycare, lots of other kids to play with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootr Posted August 31, 2015 #11 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Who had a great weekend? THIS GUY! Love our little camper - cashew chicken Saturday night in the dutch oven, eggs and hashbrowns for breakfast on the Coleman stove... Lot's of critters to entertain us: And some probably not so thrilled-thing this was a fox: Almost got nailed by a skunk that was poking around the campfire when we came back from a nature talk Saturday night - been there, done that - never want to experience it again!!! Lot's of pretty this weekend - and the best part is I ate GREAT! Monday morning is amazing when you have a weekend eating well with no cheating (ok - 1 piece of carrot cake, but the hiking took care of some of that) Hope you all have a great week, thanks for letting me share.
