i've had a couple of difficult weeks... about half on, half off plan. I had surgery this past week and have struggled to stay on the program while my body wasn't feeling great. When I last weighed, I had gained back 3 lbs, so I'm going to wait til 3 days on plan to weigh again. I want these particular 3 lbs to be gone!

Congrats to everyone who is doing soooo well!!

Well leave it to me to bring in the bad news..I gained 2 lbs putting up to 167.5 I'm still in the 160's so I am not gonna worry too much. Concidering that I have had little to no MF food I think 2 lbs is ok.
HUGE congrats to Jen, Joelie, and sooo wonderful to see you back Amy, your doing great!

Congratulations to all losers and maintainers.
Been struggling a bit with a few #(5) since the kids visit from China. Back on program 100% now, finally, and looking forward to posting some semblance of losses again, next week.

Been having ticker problems and I have sent several emails in the hope that it can be fixed. If not, then, I will just post losses and progress within a post!! Also, been having computer problems and somehow I have reverted back to an old forum sig I am grateful that I am still able to post and read the forum. Sooooo

I am actually in the 50# club.

A special CONGRATULATIONS to JOELIE, who has done SPECTACULAR and recognition is very much in order for being a very sweet person!!

Congrats to all, and especially to Joelie and Jo!!! Great job, you guys!! (And Biki, I'm with everyone else. 1.5 pounds is definitely something to be proud of. Don't let anyone - including that little voice in your head - tell you otherwise!!)

After five days of worry-free eating while I was away for Thanksgiving and a few days back, I'm at 129.2. Down from my goal, up from my lowest point. The higher calories definitely seem to be helping. I'm also still running, but I've been TERRIBLE about lifting (but given my drop in weight, I'm wondering if I'm still not eating enough for when I AM lifting; I'm going to try increasing calories on lifting days to see if it helps).

Anyway, new goal: I want to run a 5K in a few months.

Down 2 lbs despite TOM! And despite DH deciding he HAD to make homemade apple pie! (He's skinny as a rail, as are our 2 boys - sheesh!)
Good work everyone!! Just had some delish oatmeal and hangin' in for the duration!

[PJinCali]

Congratulations to everyone!

I am down 2 pounds this week for a total loss of 93 pounds.

Have a great week!

Way to go Alex, I know you needed a big drop!

CT Yankee-glad your back on 100% and welcome to the 50# club!

Sheri-14lbs in one week, WOW! If that's not inspiration to continue, I don't know what is!

Jen-GREAT to see you Yesterday and welcome to ONEDERLAND!

Elke-It'll be okay, you're maintaining REALLY well considering!

Tankie-So glad you made it through week one, I missed you!

Joelie-OH MY GOD! YAY! Welcome to the 100# club! You are so close to goal, look so amazing and are such an inspiration!

London, good luck with day 1! I'm so happy you've joined us!

WOW!!!! so much inspiration here today!!! Joelie -- CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Jo, I already congratulated you but way to go again!. Biki - add my 2cents in here too -- yep! be happy about 1.5 loss - it is SO much better than a gain! Everyone else -- my goodness!!! Too exciting!!!!!

For me, I had gained 8 lbs over thanksgiving week, and this week i lost them and somehow gained back 2 of them. So I am not a happy camper about that as I was really hoping to be in the 220s. That is my goal for this week - to get halfway between the 20 pound club and 30 pound club (lose 5 pounds!). And I am planning to do no extra exercise this week and am helping that helps.

DEDE, Thank you for getting in all the Congratulations to all the losers, goalies, maintainers, etc.
YES to everything DEDE said.
Good job, girl friend.
Add JO's 'gratulations for reaching the BIG GOAL!

No matter how hard I tried - I thumped, bumped, and twisted, the scale would not go below the 150 mark.
I so wanted to be in the 140's, but I'm losing the inches and my clothes are much looser.
I'm learning how to fix the meals quicker and more tasty.
When I see the new styles and watch Lizabette get into those small sizes, this makes me much more determined.
From the looks of things, most of you had a very successful week. I'm so happy for you!

[dede4wd]

Yup, the silver fox in the size 6's is QUITE an inspiration, eh?

You'll get there in no time Marilu!

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to add my two cents and give a big CONGRATS to everyone that lost, maintained, and are getting through every day the best way they can! I forgot to weigh myself this morning (which NEVER happens) , but my typical weigh in day is Monday, so I'll post my stats then.

I am new to this site, but not new to MF. I just want to say that I am truly impressed - not only with everyone's success, but the fact that even the people who have rached their goals are still here posting, inspiring, and encouraging everyone else! Thank you!!

I am so pleased to be here with you all and look forward to getting to know everyone here in the weeks to come!

GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!!
