Shrink-a-versary Weigh-in, Week 6!!

[ 73 ] 12/09/2009 |

Alright, ladies and gent(s), it’s Wednesday so you know what that means!

Glee is on tonight!

No wait, sorry.  That’s not why we’re here.  Silly me!  We’re here to weigh in!!

Go jump on those scales and then come back and tell us how you did.  Do you have something to celebrate?  Did you have a major revelation?  Next week is our last weigh in!  Do you need to make that final push to meet your goals?

While I was watching the Biggest Loser Finale last night, I let out a huge AMEN! for Rudy’s comment:  “It may not come off 10 pounds at a time, it may not come off 50 pounds at a time but it does come off.”

That’s the gist of it folks!  If you do what you KNOW  you are supposed to do (and all of you…and me…KNOW what you are supposed to do), it doesn’t matter how much you lose a week or how quickly you lose it.

All that matters is that it’s coming off.

So take those .2 lb losses and cheer!  DON’T MAKE EXCUSES FOR WHY IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE! You lost, and that’s what’s important!

And if you gained, you probably know why you gained.  Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start again.

You CAN do this.  You can.

    No gain, no loss (still 160.2), but also zero, nada, zip exercise. Let's see why: Wed-advent service at church, Thurs-daughter's diving meet, Friday-snowed in (1st snow day for the year-I cleaned the house), Saturday-niece's 2nd b-day over 2 hrs from home, Sunday-daughter's gymnastics meet (took 1st in all 3 events-my girl rocks!), Mon-twins band concert, Tues-final diving meet of the year, Tonight-blizzard warnings but took my daughter to gymnastics practice. We are all hoping for another snow day tomorrow. Maybe I'll be able to throw in a dvd :)

    No loss, no gain…. Here is my post: http://zookhappenings.blogspot.com/2009/12/wedn…

    Celebrating the victory of a continued net loss for the challenge that happens to be at the most challenging time of year!

    Congrats on maintaining, girl! With all you have going on, I can see why it's hard to fit anything else in!!! As much as I LOATHE getting up earlier, I think for the next few weeks I'm going to try and get my workout with EA SPORTS Active in as soon as I get up. That way it's done, and I can get all the rest of the stuff I have to get done, DONE!!!

    Good luck this week! I hope you find some YOU time :)

    Thanks :) We managed to get our snow day today, so I'm getting ready to throw in a dvd. Diving season is now done (my daughter didn't make the finals-needed 8 dives, she has 6 or 7) so that will free up some afterschool time for me now. Plus, only 1 more week and then we are off for Christmas Break. Maybe I'll be able to hit the gym a few times a week. Also, don't tell the kids, but they are getting a Wii for Christmas and their mom is gettting the EA Sports game – woohoo! I wish I could break it out now :) I've thought about trying to get up early and workout, but I'm soooo not a morning person! Might have to become one, though.

  • Bari_F

    I'm with you – no gain at this time a year should count as a loss :)
