Weigh-In Wednesday – SFG Week 1!

September 2nd, 2009 | Comments | Posted in Weight Watchers | by Lissa

Hello brothers and sisters! Is it really weigh-in day already? Seems like we just did this a few days ago! WAIT! We did! It has only been 3 days since our Shrink For Good launch! I know we probably won’t see any big losses in that short amount of time, but I expect a lot from you next week! Lots of new and exciting things happening around here lately, no?

If you haven’t joined our Shrink For Good challenge yet, it’s not too late! Just leave a comment below saying you want in and leave your starting weight (or if you don’t want to post it – email me – melissa@shrinkingjeans.net), we want to keep track of the total pounds lost by Shrinking Jeans participants!

So, go – GO! Step on that scale. Blog about it, then come back here and link up in the comments! Then for the BEST PART, go out and buy non-perishable food items totaling the amount of weight you lost! Need some ideas for healthy non-perishable foods? Look here.

Are you with us on the EA Sports Active challenge? Let me tell you, these buns are BURNING after Day 2! You can still join in the misery fun!

Today is the last day to enter the Jenny McCarthy-autographed magazine + 1 year WW magazine subscrition giveaway! Hurry up and enter!

That is all for now! Let’s do some shrinking for good this week!

    I'm way late, but I've had a sick child all week. Down 2lbs!
  • I 'm pretty sure I was at 173.2 (it was just last night I posted!! how can I not remember??).

    This morning I was at 172.2 so exactly 1 lb. is gone, and, yes, I'm going to add it... FOREVER!!

    I've made it to two spinning classes and 1 body pump class this week (and my thighs can attest to that- burn, baby, burn!), and I really am trying to eat better. Lots of grilled chicken and broccoli this week. Unfortunately, there's also been some amusement park food and fudge. : ( A little nervous for this weekend with all the picnics (and beer), but I'm going to try to stay strong!
  • I'm a day late! sorry! Still calling my weight at 153.5, same as before. I've been so bad lately, but I'm going to do better. This challenge is a great one! Here's my blog post:

    Here's my blog post for WI. I lost .6 lbs for the week, not 3 days. I guess I will start the Shrink 4 Good this week, so start my weight at 138.8!
    Now I need to add the button to my blog too. :) And yes I know I'm a little late. Haha.
  • I have no weight gain/loss since Sunday, but I did not officially start (joined weight watchers) today!

    http://anotherjournal.wordpress.com/2009/09/02/...
  • I have good news and bad news too.

    Good news: Lost .5 pounds since last Wed.
    Bad news: Gained 1.3 pounds since Sunday

    But I was sick Wednesday through Sunday and hardly ate anything so that quick weight loss was bound to come back once I started eating again. Oh well, it was fun to see those numbers for a day and I will be back there again soon. :)
  • ok!I have finally blogged about today's weigh-in which was done first thing this morning! I stayed exactly the same!! I also had a visit from TOM today so the same is awesome!

    Can I still join in?? I have just recommitted to WW and am pretty excited about this challenge.

    Now the sad part...the start weight. 240.8.

    Thanks!
  • Of COURSE you can!

    And just think, your weight will be going down from here! ;p
  • Yes yes yes of course you can still join!!! welcome!!! And that's not sad, we're all in this together! Yay for joining!!
  • My WW meeting is on Sunday, so I just had my weigh in a few days ago. I was up 0.2 at my meeting this week, but my home scale has crept back down a bit since then. I'll wait and post "official" weigh in results from my meeting this coming Sunday in next week's SFG thread..
  • No change for me!!! And I did not blog about because we just blogged about the challenge on Sunday!!! However, I was able to get some good workouts in that short time!!! Sunday- I did my pilates workout, Monday- 30 minutes on elliptical-I held 5lbs weights for 16 of those minutes, and Tuesday was the same workout as Monday. I did not get to work out today because I ended up having to take my son to the doctors. Hopefully, I will be able to meet you expectations after a holiday weekend!!! this weekend will be the first time since getting pregnant that we are actually going somewhere on a holiday weekend... so don't be to hard on me when I get back!!! Have a great Labor Day weekend!!!
  • Alright, I gained about two pounds this week. I'm thinking that's a combo of water retention and muscle gain. I'm ok with it.. I'll move on. :)
  • I 'm pretty sure I was at 173.2 (it was just last night I posted!! how can I not remember??).

    This morning I was at 172.2 so exactly 1 lb. is gone, and, yes, I'm going to add it... FOREVER!!

  • I weighed in this morning and had a 1.6 pound loss! That brings me down to 289.0.

  • Bari_F
    No time to blog today, but down 0.6 to 160.0. Almost made that next decade :)
  • Nice job!
  • Here I am!
    Up .9 since Sunday. Lame!

  • I'm up .4, but I'm hoping that is because I just weighed myself after work. I usually do it first thing in the morning. I'll be doing that for sure next week.
  • lisainme
    down 3 pounds - not sure it will stick but I'll take it!!!! ;-)
  • TheaDramaMama
    That's great! Good job!
  • SJs_April
    Congrats!
  • Lisa_ShrinkingJeans
    Oh, I am so funny, I crack myself up with my wittiness. I could use a dash of humbleness, too, huh?

    I just logged my starting weight on the SFG post, but It was my monday weight. I stupidly weigh myself just about everyday and obsess about it :(. I'm down 1.8 today. doesn't seem accurate thought, I'll check tomorrow and probably be up 2 :). haven't had time to blog about anything this week and need to!
  • Here is my post for today: http://thekrumwiedesix.blogspot.com/2009/09/wei...

    I am at 243.6 today which is a 2lbs loss from Sunday :)
  • Greetings, Sisters and Brothers! Starting weigh-in caught me on a wicked up-swing. (Pizza and hot-wings and beer on Saturday, oh my!) I started at 188.8 on Sunday and am back to 183.2 today (-5.6 for the challenge...but I was 182.8 about a week ago, so I'm actually up a little on the week-to-week). Now the real challenge: stopping the teeter-totter I've been on for the past 6 months and being able to add another can next week.

    -1.4 :D
  • TheaDramaMama
    That's great! Good job!
  • Way to go, Biz!
  • Biz
    Thanks! :D
  • No change on the scale...but I did have a great thing happen this morning!!!

    http://littleladybugthatcould.blogspot.com/2009...
  • Congrats! (And very appropriate NSV, considering the name of this blog!)
  • Pam
    Both Randall & I weigh in on Fridays, so I don't have any loss to report just yet for either of us. But - next week will be a winner!!
  • I have lost NOTHING since Sunday, which was UP from last week, but it is also "THE WEEK" when I always gain weight. So next week? I am going to have a massive stack of food to photograph. ;p
  • TheaDramaMama
    Hey, did you copy my post? I'm right there with ya!
  • SJs_April
    I know I'll see a massive stack of food next week, hooker! :o)
  • lucidb
    You know how you seem to "sync up" with the women you hang out with in person. I wonder if that happens over the web as well....
  • BrookeF
    i think there are several of us that are there! :) here's to next week *raises her water*
  • lucidb
    Down this week, and going to my first ever WW meeting tonite:

    http://lucid-gettingmeback.blogspot.com/2009/09...

    Also, you guys ROCK!!! If I'm calclulating right we are at over 30lb of food to donate before noon after 3 days!!! WOW
  • Woo-hoo! LOVE.
  • A picture's worth a 1000 words, right?

    http://christy.shrinkingjeans.net/2009/09/yes-i...
  • I love that idea! (Of course, would that stop me from rambling 1000 words, too? I doubt it.)
  • YES! We love photos!!
  • Stayed the same since Monday - 167. Don't have a Wii so I started the c25k program on Monday. Whew - lots of sweating going on there....lol...but I did it. Today I do it again.

    Hey Brooke - Thanks for the support and doing this with me. Anyone else want to join us??
  • TheaDramaMama
    Great job on finding something that works for you!
  • Thanks everyone for the encouragement. I did my second session yesterday and it felt really good. Thanks to Santana I was able to do the whole thing...;)
  • Way to go! Running does get easier over time, and C25K (and similar training strategies) are a nice way to train. Do you have an event picked out? That can really help.
  • BrookeF
    :) since we don't have wii's we're challenge ourselves with running training programs. its easier to keep up with it when you have a buddy, and even if we can't run together we can certainly encourage one another!
  • Way to go on starting the C25K program! I've heard so many great things about it!! Sweating is good :) I'm sure you'll have a great loss next week!
  • I forgot to update my weight on the SFG post (217.2 lbs) when I weighed in yesterday, but I'm in.

    Good news: I'm down 2.2 lbs from yesterday.
    Bad news: I'm up 1.6 lbs from last week.

    I'm up this week but not surprised.

  • I must be carrying some insane water weight. I was 157.4 on Monday, and this morning I weighed 155.8. I'm going to pretend I weighed in at the same, because there is no way I actually lost that weight. I ate way too much pizza last night for that to be a possibility!
  • TheaDramaMama
    Take the loss and run with it!
  • Don't sell yourself short, Marie!! I would watch the scales next week to see what happens!
  • SJs_April
  • Lisa_MellowCat
    I am down 4.6 pounds. Yes, I have been eating:) I can lose the weight fairly easy when I decide to. And when I exercise and watch what I eat, well, it works for me. Eating a lot of apples too, hopefully that is helping.
  • TheaDramaMama
    That's huge! Congrats!
  • Wow is all I have to say!! That's an amazing loss!!!
  • Wowza. I'm trying the apple thing. Now. Great job!
  • Congrats on your enormous loss, Lisa!!
  • 2 pounds in the wrong direction this week, but it was my first weigh-in since my vacation, and frankly I'm glad it wasn't more. Back on track this week!

  • Great job!

  • Dang it, I'm actually UP .8 ~ not a great way to kick things off!!!

    i had to modify the SFG idea a little since i'm only 2 pounds from my goal weight, but I think I've come up with a good plan.
  • Two pounds I feel like cursing like a trucker (in a good way!)
    weeeee! thank you ww and sisters, thank you! down to 138.5 this week!

  • AngelaCPA
    I just signed up yesterday so I didn't weigh in today. My weigh in yesterday was 1 lb less than the week before though!
  • TheaDramaMama
    Great job on the loss!!
  • Lisa_ShrinkingJeans
    Yeah for losses!
  • Lisa_ShrinkingJeans
    Yeah for losses!
  • Congrats on your 1 lb. loss, and thanks for joining us for this challenge!
  • I didn't lose any with the 21-day challenge - but I was on vacation two of the 3 weeks! LOL Here's to be back on the wagon!
  • TheaDramaMama
    I can't wait to hear about your amazing losses...now that you are going to be spending less time on Facebook and Twitter. : )
  • SJs_April
    Welcome back, Beth!
  • Welcome back to the wagon. ;p

    Can I get a starting weight for you?
  • Glad you're back on the wagon, Beth! Here's to a renewed sense of shrinking :)
