2-29-24 Thursday Weigh-In----Leap Year

[Belle]

Did you leap into a loss this Leap Year Day? Hope so.

I'm trying to be good. Had ice cream only once in 6 days.

Really not eating a lot. Having some drinks, free in casino.

Think I'm doing pretty well.  

 

How are you all doing at home this week? Trying not to eat a certain food? 

 

You that are sailing soon. Have you made any rules for yourself?

 

Hope you all have a good weigh in this week.

Good morning Belle.   I’ve stopped counting calories try to find a middle ground. Though I was slowly  losing on restricted  calories I also felt queasy most of the time - I evidently need more carbs.  I’m still trying to stay away from concentrated sweets.    
 

I leave tomorrow and Jan left today

 

PLEASE ANY OF THE NEWER FRIENDS ON THIS SITE FEEL FREE TO START OFF NEW THREAD NEXT WEEK

Just got off the scale.  WHEW!  I was worried, I have to confess.  Two days after the major contamination of my hard won battle against junk food, I took my DH out to dinner at a Mexican Restaurant called "Casa Carrion"......(I pray that word means something different in Spanish).  It was excellent and we both had very healthy meals (fish and salads) and came away from dinner satisfied and not feeling stuffed.  Today the scale is not revealing any of my secrets and that is good enough for me.  

 

Good work Belle.  Ice cream is my #1 sin.  I love the stuff.  Do you ever have fantasies of loosing a few "additional pounds" before you go on a cruise so that you can kind of "bank" them for ice cream or other dessert indulgence later?  Foolish I know. 

 

Have fun on your trip Izena (and you too Jan if you are about).

I'm happy to say that I "maintained" all month. 😁

 

Belle, that's great - only 1 ice cream in 6 days! Good for you. Hope you are enjoying your cruise.

 

Izena, enjoy your cruise! Staying away from concentrated sweets is a good goal.

 

Hopeful, good choices at the Mexican restaurant...those darn chips and salsa get me though! 😆

 

Have great cruises for those of you so lucky to be cruising, and a good weekend to those of us who continue counting down to the next one!

Hello everyone.

 

Izena everyone has to find their own way of eating to lose weight.

We're all different except think we all have to stay away from to many sweets. 

Better yet no sweets but can any of us do that?  Have fun on your cruise. 

 

Hope sounds like you really did good well at the Mexican place. I love Mexican food. But not real spicy.  Love Ice cream too, favorite dessert.

But it's good we're losing all year just for our health. But Yes we all want to lose weight before a 

cruise and it's so we can eat more. Then if gain won't be as hard getting it off. I've been doing

good on my cruises and have come back with a loss or staying the same. Eating less and walking helps. 

Just Us not to have a gain for the whole month is really good. No extra pounds to lose again. 

Hope March will be good for you. Worked hard for no gain now let the losses begin again.

 

Jan if reading have a great cruise.

Hope other come in and say how your doing. Come join us to those that are reading the posts.

Time to get ready for spring, summer and your cruises.

 

Have a good weekend

Good Afternoon all--Keep up the good work this weekend. If you do

could mean a good loss on Thursday.

Hi everyone! My husband had surgery this week, so I missed the Thursday weigh-in but wanted to share that I’m now down 14 pounds since I started my weight loss efforts on January 29. I’m eating low carb and am doing my best to stay away from sugar. Our cruise is April 15 - 26 from NYC; we’ll fly in from Phoenix on April 13. I’ll set some boundaries for myself for cruise eating but am focusing right now on trying to to eat better and feel better before we leave. Congrats to everyone on your hard work this past week and enjoy to those currently cruising!

[Belle]

FineArts you're doing good. !4 pounds in a month. Yes we all want to lose weight 

to look good but the main thing is to become healthy and to feel good. You're doing great.

You can do good on the cruise too, so many food options.   

 

Hope your husband is doing good.

 

Hope you all are having a nice weekend and your weather is good. Think spring is about

three weeks away. Hope it comes for all that are really having cold and snowy weather.

 

[Izena]

Fine arts wow that’s an amazing loss.   You going to have a great cruise in April. 
 

 Trip off to a weird start - bad night at pre cruise hotel, and within 5 hours of leaving the dock. We have ship problems.  In the last 18 months I’ve been on 4 cruise 3 different cruise line and had significant issues with 3 cruises.  Part of my Irish luck heritage???

[Belle]

Hope everyone had a good weekend including eating wise. 

Just and Solo where are you?

Hope Jan and Izena are enjoying their cruises, I am.  Izena sorry

things went wrong at the first and everything is fine now.

[Izena]

I am home, cruise was suspended. Very stressful experience.   They wasted time and money by ignoring the obvious.  I don’t have any more cruises booked.  Going to enjoy Jazzper as long as I can. 

[HopefulCruiser123]

Oh Izena!  I am so sorry.  What a bummer!

 

[Belle]

So sorry. Were just stuck on the ship? At the dock or just cruising around,

Hope you get your money back, What cruise line was it?
