Weigh-in Wednesday

[ 98 ] 02/17/2010 | lisa

What is that you say? The answer is no, we aren’t skipping a weigh-in just because we are in between challenges! Go ahead, head over to your scale, step on it, peek at your weight, and then come back here and tell us all about it.

Yes, really.

Today really is a weigh-in day.

How did you do? Fantabulous or craptastic?! I was just looking for an excuse to use the word craptastic.

Write a blog post about your past week and your weigh-in, how you did, how you feel about it, etc etc. Post the link in the comments or if you don’t have a blog, just leave us a long ole comment about yor weigh-in.

Well, my week wasn't fantabulous, nor really craptastic (a word which I love, by the way!)… I guess that makes me pretty mediocre!

And I'm in for the new team challenge! Sign me up!!

I have had a little bit of both — fantastic working out, craptastic eating! LOL either way it translated to 1 pound loss, so 131 this week. This is the hump I can't get over. So, I need that flame again to be lit underneath my rear.
Here's my post: http://babytealeaves.blogspot.com/2010/02/weigh…

Happy WIW!
BrookeF

since i didn't put it on my post i'll log it here – 129.

craptastically up from last week.

http://smartstrongsexy.blogspot.com/2010/02/shr…

and I'd like to be on a team, but I hate to drag people down. I should be moved into the house and refocusing on losing by then. If I'm not in the farmhouse by then I will kill someone and be on the prison diet. (Do inmates get to surf the web?)
http://pancakes318.blogspot.com mommyp

I'm going with Craptastic, LOL

http://laurakay428.blogspot.com/2010/02/weight-…

I'm definitely in for the next challenge!
babyboy3

I will blog in a little bit. I want to get my workout in before daycare kids show up. But I am all in for the next challenge put me on a team.
http://www.babytealeaves.blogspot.com Christie O.

not sure, but when you're not running away from the other inmates, you can pump some iron, so you'll definitely be getting exercise! then again you'll probably have to mail in your weigh-ins each week. which will be a total drag. so nevermind. don't kill anyone. it's not worth losing the internet access over. plus it's just plain not nice. :p

It was a rough week….but I take full responsibility.

bwJen

I want in on the teams challenge!! Can I continue with saturday weigh ins? or will I have to switch to Wednesdays?
bwJen

LMAO
AmericanTribal

Ooooooh, I'm telling on myself! I should be sent to weight-loss-blogger jail heheehehehehe. I'm up 1.4 pounds and it's all my own fault. That being said, I'm looking forward to wowing the scales next Wednesday :)

JessBoz

I'm up 2 pounds. I know it's because I did not work out at all and baked up a TON of sweets over the weekend and then Auntie Flo showed up. I CAN. NOT. WAIT. for the next challenge!! Sign me up! :)
shrinkingjeans

Jen, can you just use your WI from the previous Saturdays?? We usually do a
Team Leaderboard the day after weigh-in.
bwJen

yep!! I will do that! looking forward to challenge!!
shrinkingjeans

Me too! -M

I like the team challenges. Sign me up
BrookeF

i couldn't comment on your blog but i just wanted to let you know how awesome you are! :) you have a perfect built in excuse to take a pass on things – but instead you accept where you are with your illness and keep looking forward to your goals. super hero indeed!!
BrookeF

you know where you slipped up – throw those left over sweets away and get back at it :) we're not gonna let a gain this week get us down right? (cause i gained too and i totally don't wanna get down. hard to get back up)
anng

I lost half a pound this week!! I will post later and I am DEFINITELY IN for the next challenge! Hook me up, hookers!!
JessBoz

Leftover sweets? lol. yeah, there aren't any…haven't been since Sunday. But, I AM going to be getting back up on that horse and this week will be a good one! You, too, Brooke! Good luck with your mini! :)

http://thesassymama.blogspot.com Heather

You would not drag ANYBODY down! Sheeet!
I think you would kick a$$ in prison, even though I'd never want you to go. Plus, I hear the prison diet is carb heavy.
http://thesassymama.blogspot.com Heather

Oh yeah, I want to be on a team!
Ashley L.

Well, not exactly a great week but I am down 1 lb, so 157 this week.

Sign me up for the team challenge for sure.
babyboy3

It was fantabulous Down 2 pounds. Here is my blog. http://momsmuttering.blogspot.com/
kay6672

Can't even bring myself to right a post. Same story, different week. In short, I am my own worst enemy. Back UP one pound.

Yes, please please PLEASE put me on a team. Preferable with some sisters that will rain hellfire down on me if I slack off. I need a good swift kick. Barring that, I need the accountability being on a team will provide.
knitsalotjenn

1. Weigh In – down .6 for the past week (better than last weeks 'staying the same')
2. YES – I want to play along with the next challenge – “Team me up, Scotty”! LOL

Viva l'Olymipcs!
AmericanTribal

Woops! I forgot to mention that YES, I want in on the new challenge starting February 24th… put me on a team! :)
Lisa_ShrinkingJeans

Yippee for a loss and yippee for joining our team challenge!
Lisa_ShrinkingJeans

Do you want me to kick your ass?! I could use a good ass-kicking myself. That's what friends are for, right?! Chin up girl, and put the food down. I'm talking to myself as much as I talking to you. Let's get back on the bandwagon together.
Lisa_ShrinkingJeans

Down is better than up- good job!
crookedeyebrow

I haven't weighed in yet but I want a team it up!
kay6672

That's EXACTLY what I need! So frustrated with myself — I'll do great for a week or two, then completely lose it and eradicate all the good I worked my ass off to accomplish!! Hopefully this upcoming challenge will help me to stay on track for more than a week or so at a time.
BrookeF

woot!! you're incredible ann. good job losing weight even carrying on that stress on your back. :)
BrookeF

good job on the loss – hopefully whatever made the week not so great will go away and you'll have a kick-rearingly awesome week next week.
BrookeF

*laces up boots*

you totally suck….crap i can't even say it with a straight face. you know i heart you and think you're awesome. but send that enemy chick my way and i'll deal with her. anyone that bothers you, bothers me.
BrookeF

*wishes she could do the star trek hand motion with keyboard characters*

woot for the loss!!!
kay6672

ahh, Brooke, that's sweet. Tell me, are those your hooker boots you're lacing up?! I'd be glad beyond all you can imagine to send the enemy chick on her way — just can't seem to shake her loose!

Okay, I'm in for the challenge…been away for a while and having trouble getting back into being better to myself. Hopefully being partly responsible for the fate of a team will kick my ass in gear.

No weigh-in, but I did post about trying to get back into the groove: http://jiggles.airynothing.com/2010/02/sj_olymp…

I would love to be on a team for the next challenge!

I am going to post my weigh in this week here for now. There has been something that has been going through our house and now its mine and my youngest (3) turns. Isn't that fun?! At least I managed to weigh in this morning!

I am down 2.8 lbs for a grand total of 98.8 lbs lost. I almost cried on the scale because it was so close to that 100 lb loss mark. 1.2 lbs to go till I meet that goal!
Leslie40

Craptastic here. Snow days, furnace went out, sewage in the basement (both are fixed now). I'm up .4, but that's a miracle because I've not been paying much attention to what I'm eating.

I'd love to be on a team.
beckyjomama

Not much to report weight wise … exactly the same as last week. Which, considering how I ate last weekend, is more than I had expected!!! My internet is acting wonky so I have not blogged it yet. Boo.

Sign me up for the team competition! Sounds fun!

Craptastic. If you don't like profanity, don't read my post. I'm just sayin'

I'm definitely in for the next challenge-sign me up.
Bari_F

You can be on my team anyday! Prison diet be damned!
http://bekkib73.wordpress.com/ Beki

I just joined, and I'm struggling with some emotional issues and my weight loss efforts, but I weighed in this morning (and decided it would be free of self-judgment). I weighed 144.6 lbs. I'm struggling to find a eating program that will work to help me lose weight at the same time I'm training for a triathlon. Weight Watchers hasn't worked for the first time in my life. I'm trying calorie counting now, using Daily Burn. I have joined the Shrinking Jeans Olympics and will try and catch up! I think I would like to be in the next challenge, but am apprehensive as I've been struggling sooo much to shed the pounds…
http://www.babytealeaves.blogspot.com Christie O.

go to the hood and find the recipe for my applesauce oatmeal muffins THEY ROCK! if you're still in the need for baking! We just polished off a bunch in my house. anyhoo, here's to the next challenge girl!

http://www.babytealeaves.blogspot.com Christie O.

yay! great job! maintaining is AWESOME, so congrats!
mitakay

I am so in for a team challenge! I didn't weigh myself today. Don't want to know… Denial ain't just a river in Egypt!
http://www.babytealeaves.blogspot.com Christie O.

woohoo!!! congrats! awesome loss this week!
http://www.babytealeaves.blogspot.com Christie O.

wow, ww hasn't worked??? that was the only thing that worked when i was training for a tri last summer, it's so weird how everyone's bodies are different! what about body for life? that might be a good one! i did that one for a while until i finally needed to switch, but that was a great one! i think you definitely need to join our next challenge, because it's going to be FUN and you really need some fun in this journey. plus i'm training for a triathlon too and we can trade training stories and tips and stuff!! hang in there girl and stay with us!! sometimes it takes a little time to find the right “cocktail.”
http://www.runninginagirlsworld.wordpress.com/ Kirsten

I want to be on a team, but… if it is a competition based on weight loss – count me out. I would be a hindrance to my team.
kay6672

Not down on myself, really, just amazed at my consistency! I always follow good weeks with bad — it's almost like I don't actually want to make progress or something. Maybe I'm mental.
kay6672

Aw, thanks for looking out for me like that!
