Freedom Fighters Weekly Weigh In

I know the idea of a weekly weigh-in has been thrown around a couple times, but I haven't seen an actual thread started on it, sooooo......

What do you think, weekly weigh in?

If so, what day? I'm partial to weekends, just cuz I'm more likely to weigh myself on the weekends, but I'll go with the majority vote.

Moxie.....68 pounds isn't anything to be disappointed in. I've only lost 45 pounds, but hey, it's 45 pounds I'm not dragging around with me....same for you.

You are almost 70 pounds lighter...hang in there and even if it comes off at 1 pound a month, that 1 pound off and not gained.

We do the best we can and we keep trying...that is what we need to do.

prev weight 272

curr weight 267

im glad with the results thus far, i have had struggles along the way and im just trying to learn from my mistakes. i know i can improve my nutrition as well and not be so Protein focused. good luck everyone!

Moxie....WOW! I wish I had your results. I was banded a day before you and havent lost that much. I did get off track for a while and now I am back on and hope to keep it this way. I know that we all want big results and we want them fast but take a look at what you have accomplished and give yourself a pat on the back. I think you have made wonderful progress!! Good luck on the rest of your journey!

I am at 189 now, glad I am losing and not gaining anything. :blushing: Just started (.) sucks:blush:, always makes me feel fatter. If anyone needs a friend or just someone to talk to I am here anytime. Good luck to all, stay on track!!!

Hi everyone! I havent been on the weekly weight in for a while but I wanted to share this (bc I am so excited) I AM UNDER 200LBS!!! WHOO HOO!! As of today my current weight is 192.5!, from 262.5 on the day of surgery. I had surgery on July 1st 2009 and I didnt think I would ever make it to "onederland"! It feels great, but I still have a long way to go!
