Speaking of dawg... where has he been? Or am I just missing his posts???

Everybody is doing so good with their weight loss!!!

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the first GFG Club weigh-in of April 2006!

It's another beautiful rainy day in Boise, Idaho. I think it's been raining for two weeks straight - very unusual for us, but I can hardly wait to see the explosion of color when the sun returns. Boise is usually filled with flowers in the springtime. As soon as it happens, I'll be out with my camera to capture some of the beauty to share with you all. We need an infusion of Spring fever around here!

I'm changing my weigh-in days back to Sundays, but I'll report here on Wednesdays as usual. Because of that, I have only a one pound loss to report this week. I'm dying to get on the scales today, but Dawg won't let me!! *laughs*

C 254 (- 53 total, - 1 this week)

I stayed the same. 333 lbs. I ask the Nutritionist and she felt I has lost to fast and my body is saying wait...But it can't do that to me! I need to lose 15 more before surgery.

C 333 -0:faint:

[maryb 1]

c188 Total -31, 1 pound this week.

Boy things sure change when you get off the liquid diet. I work hard to get 800+ calories a day worth of mushies.

hello....

not stepping on the scale this week...rebelling.....but im steady working out and trying to make good food choices...so I will step back on the scale next wednesday....

Congratulations to everyone on thier weightloss!!! so proud of everyone......

Go Gurly......over 100 mark is AWESOME.....you have got to be so thrilled!

p'nut....yes mam, I do have Excel.....thank you so much for the info I will recieve.....im still interested in finding a nutrionist/dietician, but with my work schedule I cant really leave to go to a doctor apointment..so im stuck trying to get help from others.....so any help is appreciated...

the eating part is my biggest problem...that's why I was fat to begin with...my food choices and not knowing how to eat properly..

ok I will stop babbling....

Have a wonderful day everyone!

I have NO idea what my weight is right now because I still don't have a scale that goes that high and I haven't made it over to the local truck weigh station recently. hahaha!!!

I guess I'll just go with the same weight 385/385/220

My April goals are:

take more time chewing my food to prepare myself for the new way of life

drink more Water 4 20oz bottles

start walking my doggies

get in to see my doctor to get the approval form filled out, YIPPIE!

:faint: <----- I love this little guy!

I'm so PROUD of all of you! I never thought I'd love being part of a group of LOSERS (and occasional gainers...I love you too) :biggrin1:

[paula 4]

c184.4

actually, the first time I weighed I saw 185.6. Then I restepped on the scale (an inch farther back) and it said 184.4.

[lianna 3]

No change for me. I am a little glad I am not up since I had a bad day or two with the food choices. Got back on track but then got my TOM today.....grrrr

Great job for everyone else so far! Hope everyone has a great week!

[Penni60 45]

Goals for April:

Stay on track with Nutrisystem -- Nope had a BMT sub from Subway.

Exercise for at least 20 min a day -- I am counting going up and down the stairs to my studio. Even being sick I have work to get done.

Drink at least 64 oz of Water a day -- Yup got that in

Lose at least 1 lb a week -- Don't think that will happen this week.

254 start for April

254 today

Loss ZERO

okay all.... i feel like i am at a standstill. as some of you know, i was in Louisianna the last 30 days to assist with the katrina relief effort. i did really well there...ate well and got lots of exercise.

i have been home less than a week and i feel kind of out of control...i am hungry...i am trying to think of ways to eat around my band (tons of Tomato Soup, ice cream)...what is my problem???? (i also have a cold so i feel lousy and just want to get home from work, crawl in the sack and drink Soup all night (that is alot of calories to eat soup all night!!))

i am committing to getting on this thread as often as i can to check in so that all of you can slap me if i am not keeping it real!!!!

to top it all off, i am scheduled for breast reduction surgery on monday...and i am getting really nervous. i actually broke out in a rash today...i think it is stress related!!

any thoughts, guidance or kicks in the butt would be appreciated : )

by the way, you guys are doing great....it is inspirational!!

thanks-m

Hubby made me weigh myself today....

C 180 (-30 total -5 since last weigh in)

I was happy with that!! Considering I have very little restriction, have been living off of hospital food, vending machines and take out I will take the 5 lbs lost!!

[coyotegirl 3]

WOW!!! EVERYONE IS DOING GREAT!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :cheer2: :waytogo:

Now me? I am not going anywhere near that scale this week! I am doing really will with eating but my Water is another story and then this morning my monthly visitor came to visit.:angry So go ahead and put me as a nothing loss this week.

I have my water bottle sitting right in front of me so now all I have to do is pick the darn thing up and put it to my mouth, Right?

Everyone have a wonderful week and be BIG LOSERS!!!:kiss2:

'lo all!

I am still alive but work is attempting to render me unconcious by way of exhaustion.

Here is my check in. I need to take an evening to try and catch up!

C 254 (-53lbs total, -2 this week) :whoo:

[the best me 6]

c184.4

actually, the first time I weighed I saw 185.6. Then I restepped on the scale (an inch farther back) and it said 184.4. :waytogo:

Cheater!!! See, what you do when you get on the scale twice and see 2 different readings, is get on the scale 2 more times till you get at least 3 that match! You know this, Paula!!!! LOL okay, I'm just jealous cuz you are less than me this week. But watch out...here's my race car! vrooom vvvrrrooooooom!!!!!

Penni, you gained nothing this week! How wonderful! I'm so proud of you, especially with being sick and lots less active, certainly less active than the last week with company and all. You go, girl!

All you people just blow me away. I love you all!!!! Gone for Good-ers ROCK! :rockon:

[Jill_S 1]

Okay, so late again. Been hugely busy plus the monthly (not monthly, 21 days) visitor is here again.

236.6 - 1 from last week, happy I lost anything with the Water weight.
