I'm maintaining at minus 10 lbs now which is awesome. Maintenance is more important to me than significant losses. I am grateful for the days when my physical conditions allow me to work out and I find I embrace my exercises with a lot more vigor as a result than I used to.</p> <p>NOw for the crowning story for me last week: I was in a hurry to get to work and was headed to something "yucky" so I decided to dress up really well. I put on a skirt that works well for me. By the time I reached the car, the skirt had slipped down several inches. I had no time to change the entire outfit. I ran back to the house and put on my red belt. I couldn't find the holes. I put on my glasses in case I couldn't see the holes any longer. The last hole was nowhere near where I needed it to be. The belt was literally below my hips. Finally I was able to find an elatastecized belt that I used while also hitching up my skirt all day. A good problem to have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134797 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 01:38:56 +0000 Angie 134797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, ladies! Another great week. Dare I say you're ALL stunning over achievers :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134755 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:01:16 +0000 marianna 134755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle, thanks for chiming in for me. I lost a pound this week. I'll take it, I guess. More would have been better, but a loss is a loss!</p> <p>Good work, ladies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134713 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 21:35:29 +0000 Queen Mum 134713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I figured you were playing with me, but wanted to make sure </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134711 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 21:30:44 +0000 Vani 134711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kim, you know I didn't really mean that I have this weird kind of dry humour that is very hard to convey across static text on forums and IMs </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134708 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 21:20:56 +0000 Queen Mum 134708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vani- I wasn't trying to call you a wimp. That's just something I've noticed for myself-- when I am sore sometimes a nice long fun feels really good and helps the soreness. Now get up and start moving girl-- haha </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134700 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 20:21:00 +0000 Lee Hovey 134700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the tips Vani!! My eating is definitely my hardest battle. I am def. feeling good for only 8 weeks post op, but I fear the disappointment of a set back. I just try to really listen to my body and I am going to physical therapy which helps alot and lets me pick t he brain of my therapist. So far so good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134696 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 20:12:18 +0000 Vani 134696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kim, I think I sort of knew that at the back of my head but was being a wimp. Now that you've called me out, I'll do precisely that Thanks for the motivation (hugs) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134694 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 20:09:15 +0000 Queen Mum 134694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vani- sometimes a good cardio workout when you are sore actually helps stretch out those sore spots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134691 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 20:01:23 +0000 Vani 134691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Louise, you're probably right, my pants actually feel tighter after the first few weight workouts.</p> <p>Khris, no, I haven't *sheepish look*. I really should though, and I have no excuse not to.</p> <p>Kim, you hit the nail on the head. All I did until last week was cardio and last week the weight workouts had me too sore to do anything on the off days. This week I will be fitting in both cardio and strength training. Let's see if that helps any.</p> <p>Kendra, you're doing extremely well for someone who recently had major surgery! Focus on eating clean and please take care not to over strain because of your enthusiasm! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134686 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 19:16:06 +0000 Lee Hovey 134686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, great job as always ladies!! And for those not seeing a loss but at least maintaining, that is an equal accomplishment so give yourselves a pat on the bag!!</p> <p>I have had a mixed week. I got to the gym a couple days, but not as many as I would have liked. I really worked on my moderation this week, letting myself eat non-diet food but trying to pay close attention to the portion. I think that worked out well. </p> <p>I have gained a few pounds back which I anticipated since some of my recent loss was due to the stomach flu. But my clothing is still sitting well, some are lose, and I fit into a pair of 31 premium denims that I hadn't fit into yet. Admittedly I did indulge in one and a half mini cupcakes today, but it was a coworkers birthday and these cupcakes are EASILY the best I have ever had. So I will just hit the gym hard after work and NOT beat myself up over it!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134673 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:25:36 +0000 Maya 134673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I noticed my Club Monaco pants were gaping a little in the back when I did my menswear post. I haven't weighed in yet but I'm feeling hopeful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134671 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:22:04 +0000 Queen Mum 134671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vani- the weight training is excellent, but are you doing cardio as well? If not, see if you can add that in.<br /> Congrats to all you losers I"m sure after my indulgent weekend I found all the weight you all lost ;-0 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134669 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:00:50 +0000 chewyspaghetti 134669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vani I was going to say the same thing as Louise. I know you mentioned clothes loosening up. Have you taken any measurements? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134647 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:21:06 +0000 Louise 134647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vani could it be with weight training you are putting on muscle? Muscle is heavier than fat so you could have lost fat but gained muscle? x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134646 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:14:07 +0000 Michelle 134646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't post a big loss this week, but I'm actually surprised I lost at all. My brother and my boyfriend both had birthdays which were celebrated in decadent style at my parents' place this weekend (always a tricky food situation), plus I did far too much emotional eating in light of our cat's death and other stuff. Losing 0.6 pounds isn't fabulous, but it sure beats the alternative and I'm glad I did better than I thought I had. I've lost 22.4 pounds in all since starting this thing. I want a better week this time out so that the 25-pound mark doesn't seem so far away!</p> <p>I'm also reporting on behalf of Marianna, who's on a plane right now. She's dropped one pound this week...go her!</p> <p>Khris: Two pounds is fantastic!! Well done!<br /> Vani: sorry the scale isn't moving! Try not to get too discouraged. I'm sure people who have overcome weight plateaus will have lots of great tips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134641 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:53:50 +0000 Vani 134641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uggh, still on track with no weight gain, but no significant loss either. I weight trained 3 days last week (and am still sore) and ate well. I might have to tweak my diet some more.</p> <p>Good going Khris! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wls-weigh-in-3-15-10#post-134634 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:45:31 +0000 chewyspaghetti 134634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello ladies!<br /> It's weigh in time again. I am down 2 pounds from last week. I wish it was more, but I'll take it. I think that I'm coming down with a head cold- ugh! How is everyone else doing? </p>
