For those longing to break the crazy daily weigh in addiction, I invite you to join me in weighing in once a week...I have chosen Saturday mornings and the 27th of every month to weigh in.

We can check in every Saturday and be accountable, and see how it goes.

Here's to super Saturday's y'all

P.s. I will be weighing later, I'm up early because of my hubby's snoring

I'm actually going to try and go back to bed and get some more zzzzzz's...

I'll do it! I'm 222.6 lbs; still the same because I think I'm in my 3week stall but better luck next week!

MakingChanges, things will get better. 2 lbs is not shabby!! I'm still struggling with food as well but we are determined women, we can do this! Hang close to your faith and know that God will see us through our trials.

Thank you for the birthday wish,,you are such a sweet lady

My Saturday weigh in was very nice this week. Weight 191. YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Today I am 70 pounds lost since I started this journey. Weighed 261 when I started this journey. Had surgery June 6, 2011. So,..... the last few months the weight is slow coming off but.... it is still coming off. I am so happy to have done this for myself, my health, my family. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I have had absolutely no problems what so ever. THANK GOD, He is guiding me to the healthy life.

See you next week.

Thank You!!!

I haven't been on the boards for a while....staying with my daughter out of state while I complete an internship...no scale at her house! I was feeling pretty nervous about not being able to weigh in at all but I went to visit my son and he has a scale!! I got on and was very pleased to be down 3 lbs in 6 weeks. I am officially under my goal weight. I wanted to wear a loose size 8 and I wear a loose size 6. I am pretty darn happy!!

Living the dream!!!,

CONGRATS ON MAKING IT TO GOOOOOOAL! What an accomplishment!!!!! I'm SOOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU! Any personal reward plans???

Ok my super Saturday family! I must confess I cheated and weighed today (147.9)...I just freaked and got worried about gaining...I will put the scale away lol...see you Saturday hugs!

Hi everyone,

I want in too! Surgery date 2/20/2012 last Saturday's weight was 306. Can't wait to post for this Saturday...see you then : )

YAY! Welcome

I don't want to put a damper on the Saturday weigh in but I read an article in PreventionGuide Weight Loss magazine that I found interesting and would like to share. Im not saying it's right or wrong but would like other's opinions.

"Researchers found that dieters who stepped on the scale every day lost an average of 12 pounds over 2 years and were less likely to regain lost weight (weekly scale watchers lost only 6). Daily monitoring helps ID the behavioral slips that cause weight gain."

It's not a significant loss but it does make sense.

The whole premise for me starting to weigh once a week was to BREAK THE CHAINS of that scale...I was weighing morning, noon, and night some days! It was HORRIBLE!

A once a week weigh in also gives accountability for me and maybe for others even if one does weigh daily .

Also, I want to see over a long period of time if it helps or hurts to weigh weekly. So far for my peace of mind its so much better to weigh in weekly, but I do admit I've cheated lol...
