I had a bad week last week and forgot about weighing in. 

Don't worry about it, tomorrow is another Friday Weigh In!  :)

I had a bad week last week and forgot about weighing in.  So as of last Friday I hadn't gained or lost.  So I am still at 16.5 lbs down.  I have been off track with my exercise but last night I did 40 minutes of cardio workouts with my girls and we had a good time.  I am going to try to get back on the treadmill tonight.

 Do you think it would be motivating to put pictures of skinny girls?

  Personally, I'd try to use as motivation something that was directly related to me. You might try a picture of your kids (everyone wants to live long and healthy for their kids sake), or of a fashion that you want to buy and look good in, or of a summer vacation spot that you want to visit and be able to wear a cute summer dress. Something like that. It is no motivation for me to look at someone else's life and want their life. But, if hanging a picture of a skinny girl works for YOU, then do it! It is free to try it. :)  DeeDee

I unforuntly gained 3 and that was a slap in the face that woke me up. But I need some advice from anyone. Do you think it would be motivating to put pictures of skinny girls?

Hey Gwyn, YOU GO GIRL! You should be very proud our yourself for your accomplishment and dedication, good for you! DeeDee

I managed to loose one more pound this last week.  Yea! Down 24 pounds now.  at 171.

Good luck to all.!!

Gloria, the fabulous 50's!  Congrat. What a wonderful way to go into a new decade: getting fitter and healthier! That is something to look forward to, good for you!

As for today's weigh in ..... one pound!! It has been forever to get it, but it is banished. Whew, 3 more to go. I go to the doctor's next week for a checkup, I"ll not even be ashamed to get on the scale (last time I was UP, but this time I'll have lost those pounds). The small motivations are what keep us going, yes? We just need to be sure to recognize them and celebrate them within ourselves, so that we can keep moving forward. See ya' all in the regular thread (Aloha Group #9). DeeDee

Hi Everyone

turning50/Gloria/Georgia/Goal Weight 180

Well, its been a challenging week, but a good one still, I didn't lose anything this week, but I didn't gain either.  My husband's health has improved greatly so I'm trying to focus on getting myself back on track.  I started a garden the week of Easter and I've been working in it. That has improved my activity level.   I  am going to set a goal of 3 lbs for next week, our June 19 weight in.  My Birthday is on June 18...the big 50.  So here's to a prosperous week ladies....much love...Gloria

 

 

Good Morning Aloha Ladies!  It's that time...time to post your weight.  As you could see, Dee Dee has started a new "Normal" thread.  So...after weighing in...jump back over to the Normal #9 thread to discuss our success or road blocks...share encouragements and tips.  Here's to a happy weigh in!

Okay...for me, it's been a tough week of guests and entertaining...which means food, food and more food...uggghhh!!!!!  But, I am happy to report that there is no weight gain in spite of all that.  I have to attribute that to my new found exercise...the Wii Active.  I started working out with this on Tuesday and let me tell you ladies...I didn't know my body could feel so much pain!!!  Today is the first day that I can walk normal.  For the last three days I've been waddling like a duck as a result of the pain...hahahah  But, I feel fabulous and I can tell that it's making a difference!  I can feel my clothes fitting a little better in my backside and in my legs...amazing!!!  Although...the scale just doesn't want to budge.  But, I suppose it's still a good thing when my clothes are fitting more friendly!

So...here's to another week!  Have a happy weigh in to all!!!  Hugs and love...Cindi
