pacruise804 Posted August 30, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Very frustrating weigh-in for me today - up around 2#. I'm hoping it's due to the heat and swelling - will re-weigh and report tomorrow. Does everyone have plans for the weekend? Our daughter turns 18 :eek: on Saturday and my Dad is down visiting for a few days. Several long runs on the training plan - heading out for 3.75 miles before it gets too crazy hot.

Jan_In_Maine Posted August 30, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Good Morning Everyone --- Thanks for the poem Belle ... We are almost to the birthday bash month!! My DH has decided that he wants to stop eating as much food and to try to be a littler healthier until he decides its time to go on a diet ... huh?? ... I'm sure he will lose everything very quickly (sigh). I am down this week 0.2# .. I'll take it - Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retiring soon Posted August 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hi all! Belle ~ nice poem. Boy it seems like August just flew by. All the better to be closer to our cruises!!;) Jan ~ a move in the right direction.(y) I stayed the same but don't know what next week will bring as I'm headed out to my sister's cottage for our annual sibs' day.

winewanderer Posted August 30, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hello, Belle, great poem. Always enjoy them. Belle, almost our bdays. You on Saturday, me next Tuesday. Enjoy your birthday. I lost 2 lbs. this week. Brings my total to 11 lbs. Really happy about that. I am finally at "that certain number" I strive to get to. I would like to lose a couple more before we leave on Sept. 17th, we'll see. Jo and Mike, at least no gain. Jan, good loss. pacruise, sorry you gained, have fun with your family. Our weather the last week has been reasonable. Cooler in the mornings and high 80's. So nice when it's not 100+ everyday. Have a good day.

nyer Posted August 30, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I am up 0.6 lbs. Hopefully, next week it will be gone. Diana, great loss. Congratulations! Jan, congrats on your loss. Mike and Jo, at least you didn't have a gain. Good luck with the upcoming week. pacruise, sorry about the gain. Happy 18th Birthday to your daughter. Have a good time with your family.

Bjpontalion Posted August 31, 2018 #14 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Gosh why is working out so hard? I am going to figure out how to eat cake and lose weight. Frustration is settling in. I have been working so hard and little loss. I just keep saying "I think I can". And get on that treadmill. Anyone else in frustration land with me? BYW Happy Birthday September folks!

retiring soon Posted September 1, 2018 #20 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Hi all! Belle ~ wishing you many happy healthy returns of the day. Happy Birthday!:champagne-toast: I was up at my DS'cottage Thursday, eating lots of snacks so we'll see how that pans out. She had some yummy pretzels with peanut butter inside them, drool! Anyhow, my DB told us his DW lost 50 lbs through WW & both my DS & I who could stand to lose that amount, were astounded as we remembered her as being slim! This is the 3rd person I've heard of having great results with WW. I'm intrigued but too cheap to pay money to lose weight!!:o Have a nice Labour Day weekend. ~ Jo ~ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diana I so know Diana! I have modified my diet. It is so slow. But my friend keeps saying to me..."you put it on one pound at a time, now you have to take it off one pound at a time." She's so right! I made such progress not working out. Now that I am it just feels like it is coming off so slowly. Oh well back on the mill and next week should be better. Thanks again for the encouragement!

Etta1213 Posted September 2, 2018 #24 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Happy birthday, Belle! Does anybody have mental strategies for avoiding too much weight gain during a cruise? We will be doing a back to back soon, and I saw one comment that a lady would remind herself during week one that she could avoid having to "try" everything, because she could get to it the following week.

Belle Posted September 3, 2018 Author #25 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I'm so tired from dancing. Isn't that "guy" in the band so cute? Diana and Jan your Birthday will be here soon. Thank you both for the beautiful necklace in my birth stone. (our pretend party, I can pretend I got a present):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
