Thanks for starting us, edel!

And great job on your loss! I had to go back to tracking as well. It's proving to be very beneficial and it's something I'm always going to have to do.

Last week: 183.4

This week: 181.8

Difference: -1.6!!!!

Lost the 1.1 that I had gained last week with NOT tracking, plus another 1/2lb! WhooHoo!! I sure hope this sticks. I've been bouncing the same 3lbs for WAY too long. I think tracking is what is helping. I gained when not tracking. Simple as that.

If any one else has been struggling like me, please, I encourage you to start tracking your foods again. I'm finding it important for me to do this. As important as exercise, if not MORE!! Yes, I know, bold statement but for me, true!!!

Have beautiful week!! TTFN!

Great job everyone!

I was tempted not to post today, because I had a slight gain, but I figured I might as well...helps keep me accountable.

Last week: 227.0

This week: 227.6

Gain of 0.6 lbs

Not quite sure why I had the gain. I was within my calorie range, but I will say some of my food choices weren't great. I also think I need to start getting more of my calories earlier in the day. I get to the evening and find I need more calories to get to my recommended amount, so I'll eat pretty late. This week is going to be rough because I'm going to be traveling and eating out a lot, but I'm going to try to keep in control. We'll see what the scale says next Friday!

*Misty, good for you for staying accountable. I find that's really important.

An idea, take a look at the sodium content of the not so great food choices. I find that there is a TON of sodium in most of my go to not great food choices and that ALWAYS causes a gain for me! Try to drink some extra Water today and see if that helps. And eating more of your calories earlier in the day is a great idea. Some camps say that your biggest meal of the day should really be lunch. Some say Breakfast and some say it doesn't matter! LOL! Try one and see if it helps!

*di, Congrats! You are SO close to goal! WhooHoo!!!

Hi all,

I didn't make it out here yesterday. I am down 2 lbs. to 217. I am thrilled but I am not sure I am going to make my 7/4 goal of 210.

Let's hope I can just pull off 3 more weeks of 2 lbs per week and make 211.

I didn't lose last week but today I weighted myself and down 2 lbs. and a few oz. So I feel good. I even ate Ice Cream cake last Friday LOL for hubby's B'Day. But just a little. Slow and steady I am happy just to lose a few pounds a month now. I feel great look great and hope to look better every day.
