Guest guest Posted September 22, 2001 Report Share Posted September 22, 2001 Holly, 16.8 pounds in 5 weeks is fantastic!!!! Just think that is a little more than 3 pounds a week average. Most people aren't able to loss that much all the time. Congratulations!!! Maureen > Well, I'm down .9. I guess that's better than up .9.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 Oh those carbs - a problem for me too!! Good job looking at your journals though and finding what could be a problem area!! I'm finding that if I don't drink 3 of my bottles of water (33oz) I just don't feel good when I go to bed. I'm amazed that I could go from refusing to drink water when there was nothing else around to wanting to drink it when I'm thirsty - a change for the better for sure!! Hang in there - we are here for you!! ~~ Ok - I had my weigh in last night. I felt terrible going in... you know, bloated, uncomfortable, fat... I gained 2 pounds!!! It wasn't a surprise. I could feel it when I went in. It's amazing how in-tune with my body I have become. I stayed on plan, but obviously something is going wrong. I looked at my old journals and can see that my best weeks were all-together lower on carbs, and higher on veggies and dairy. So.... this week I'm going to push veggies, and try to limit my carbs (specifically sweets). I'm also going to increase my water. I've noticed that some days I drink a lot and some days I don't drink any. I'm so glad that I've kept my journals. Hopefully I'll have better news next week. On my way to Subway for a Seafood and Crab Salad (my favorite). It's my every friday treat. (Virginia) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 , I am sorry about the weigh in, but next will be better. I do believe that the more water you drink and the more veggies, the better the weigh in. Good luck, Maureen > Ok - I had my weigh in last night.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 Holly, Good for you, you are doing great!! Since you are eating in your point range I wouldn't worry about the big loss. Celebrate it!! You deserve it!! Keep up the good work. in CO Weigh in I weighed in this morning...-3.2!! -22.5 Total lost !!! 42.6 to goal I know, I've lost more than the 1-2 lbs./ week which is recomended. The website made me aware of that this morning when I recorded my loss. But you know what, I've been within my pt range and eating and drinking everything I'm supposed to. What do they want me to do start eating more...I don't think so. In fact, I actually went over in points a couple of days last week.
