I don't chart it, but that is how I think about it. I have a year and a half of weights that I can look at now, and see the general trend along with dips and jumps.</p> <p>sorry queenie- that sucks</p> <p>shana I'm glad you were able to talk to a trainer and get some ideas. Hope you back is feeling better soon.</p> <p>jennifer- you still managed to loose through a stressful period and that is great! Thanks for posting a photo of yourself. Good luck on cutting back on sugar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116717 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 05:16:45 +0000 jennifer26 116717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all,</p> <p>Sorry to be gone last week (we had a complete office move). Well, after gaining two weeks ago, I'm now down .5 pounds. Given the past couple weeks and the time of the month, I'll take what I can get. Now that things are getting settled, my goal is to get back to the goal of 2 pounds/week. We'll see how things go. I also managed to get a photo. <a href="http://i607.photobucket.com/albums/tt156/jennifer26ylf/ctpic/P1000348.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i607.photobucket.com/al.....000348.jpg</a> </p> <p>My goal for the next week is to cut out/back sugar. Wish me luck, and way to go Michele, Marianna etc. I've been experimenting with weighing in more than once/week, I like getting a better sense of fluctuations, but would have preferred my Sat number to my Monday report. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116636 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 02:05:28 +0000 shana 116636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job everyone! Every little bit helps - Marianna, 2.2 lbs is great! </p> <p>Well, considering I just ate an ENTIRE bag of reese's peanut butter cups and it's that time of the month, I better not say. I did go the gym today and 3 times last week but I can't do much because of my back so I'm probably eating more than I'm burning! I did have a great talk with one of the trainers today and she gave me all sorts of tips on exercises I can do to strengthen my back and core without hurting myself so I'm going to try to implement some of these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116573 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 23:14:20 +0000 Queen Mum 116573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>great job ladies! you all deserve applause!<br /> me? I found 2 pounds... ;-( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116547 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 20:23:35 +0000 medusa 116547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats Khris, Marianna, Rute, and Michelle. Sounds like you are all doing well.</p> <p>I don't know if this is useful for anyone, but I thought I'd mention it to anyone who likes to weigh daily. I used the weighing method of the Hacker's Diet (<a href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/www/hackdiet.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/www/hackdiet.html</a>) which is to weigh every day, but then calculate the moving average to get a sense of the trend and not get overwhelmed by the noise. It's described in this section:<br /> <a href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/www/subsection1_2_4_0_4.html#SECTION0240400000000000000" rel="nofollow">http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdi.....0000000000</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116541 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 20:11:12 +0000 Angie 116541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Khris said. Weighing yourself everyday helps you recognize weight fluctuations in a good way. </p> <p>I think you are all doing marvelously well! WOW. </p> <p>Marianna, try taking a brisk 20 minute walk each day. Stay in your clothes and make sure you’re wearing comfy flats. This will really help. Take along a friend or dog! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116535 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 20:04:13 +0000 marianna 116535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Khris. You're right. I'm just being hard on myself because I constantly feel like I could be doing better. I need to start exercising. I think I'm being so hard on myself because I have so much free time yet I don't do any intentional exercise. That should be my goal for this week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116513 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:15:06 +0000 chewyspaghetti 116513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianna- my weight fluctuates a lot from day to day. If you weighed yourself daily, maybe you would see that those fluctuations are normal for you, too. I like to look at both the short term- daily weight and longer term- weekly/monthly weight and measurements.<br /> The current research/theories do not suggest loosing more than about 2 pounds a week because supposedly you will be losing muscle rather than fat. To me, it's more important to keep at a downward trend and maintain it, that than the actual amounts. You're doing great- don't be so hard on yourself!</p> <p>rute- maintaining through all of that is no mean accomplishment.</p> <p>Michelle- you're doing awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116505 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 18:52:07 +0000 marianna 116505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I lost 2.2 pounds this week.</p> <p>I am sort of annoyed because I weighed myself on Saturday and I was down 2.8 pounds, but today I'm up 0.6 from Saturday. That's why I dislike weighing myself more than once a week. I think this gain is caused by an increase in sugar, especially at night. I really enjoy having fruit at night while I'm watching tv and I think this is a bad idea for me. I think I need to restrict myself to having fruit (and all sugar) only in the first part of the day.</p> <p>Otherwise I'm doing okay. Down 4.8 pounds for the month of January so far. I'm not satisfied with that... I still feel like I could be doing better although I really had a good week. Sigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116472 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:05:19 +0000 rute 116472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I manage to mantain my weight and this time I'm happy because between the Holidays and the move I made some not so healthy choices so.. now it's time to return to good habits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116451 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 16:00:13 +0000 Michelle 116451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A pretty good week over here: I lost 1.4 pounds for the week, bringing the total to 10.2. This means I met my short-term goal of getting to the 10-pound mark for this weigh-in. Next short-term goal is to be north of 15 pounds lost by my birthday, which is in exactly one month. Ideally I'd like to be closer to 20 by then, actually.</p> <p>The next goal is also to start introducing more regular exercise into my life, ideally using the free fitness centre in my apartment building. A word of warning that I'll be consulting with you ladies about how to get started, as this is an area where I have *always* struggled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-1-11-10#post-116448 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:51:18 +0000 chewyspaghetti 116448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Monday ladies!<br /> I am down .2, and since it's that time of the month again- that is good for me. I usually bloat up a couple of pounds at this time in my cycle, so I'm happy.<br /> How is everyone else doing this week? </p>
