They tell me that one or two pounds a week ( after the initial big drop) is "normal". Rich

Last week was a bad one for me. Off work all week,thought I could just take it easy,no problems.Harsh reality sets in......without some kind of work/exercise,watching your diet is all for naught.Am going to the basement today to dust off all the equipment down there and USE it when I don't work.Instead of sitting at the computer all day.

Update... Started at 270 on 12/6/10
Today at 251.8 .....down 3 lbs this week and 18 lbs so far.
Goal is still 238, which equals two 16 lb bowling balls.
Lifted 13,580 lbs this morning on the Nautilus machines at the Y. All is well.
However, heading off for a cruise next week.. We shall see what damage that does!

Facts:6'1" 36 years old- sit at a desk all day long.
12/01 - 227.5
12/29 - 217.0
01/05 - 214.6
01/12 - 214.6 (great considering we traveled, ate like pigs, deserts every meal,and I was up 4.5 pounds on Monday)
1/19 - 215 Next week, it's 210 or bust!
1/26 - 210.8!!!! Stomach flue for 2 days, then a Packer party on Sunday, but I kept the weight off - running on that dang treadmill helps
I haven't seen 210 in over 6 years!

AWESOME JOB GUYS! :beer:
January 1, 2011 - 246.8 pounds House scales...They LIE! :LOL2:
January 7, 2011 - 239.0 even 7.8 pounds. Good but it will slow down now going forward.
January 14, 2011 - 232.4 6.6 pounds this week. I hit the Gym every day and killed myself shoveling this week :LOL2:
January 21, 2011 - 230.2 2.2 pounds this week. This is where I need to be weekly, but I was hoping for more!
January 28, 2011 - 227.5 2.7 pounds this week. The 4 hour shoveling yesterday helped this along for sure!
Making good progress! \/

I hear you Outdoorsman. I have a quarter at work that has a "Granny Smith #4139" sticker from an apple on it. This quarter has special meaning to me. One day when it ALL hit the fan (wife fighting, FIL dying, work sucking), I just wanted to eat my troubles away. I had the quarter ready to drop in for a soda and more $ for candy bars... I had to make the hard decision walk back to my desk and NOT do it. I ate that apple instead. I keep the quarter on my desk as a reminder that just because the day is filled with crap, doesnt' mean my body has to be too.
Get back on that wagon!

You guys that are posting weights with "tenth" of a pound.......What scale are you using? My scale is still the old cheap dial kind. I can barely see a difference between a pound or two and you guys are reading tenths of a lb.

Ha! maybe you are better off without seeing ALL of the weight!!! Ha ha
Candidly, I also had an older scale. I couldn't see enough of the dial to make out any close differences. It was inaccurate, too.
For Christmas, she bought me an "official" Weightwatcher's scale for about $60.00 at Bed bath and beyond. It kept track of body fat/mass/index and Lord only knows what else. It was worse than the old dial one. I found out that it was not well thought of by checking the net...
One day after I tried it, I was boxing it up to bring back to the store for a refund. I went on to Amazon and bought a simpler, but still a digital scale... EATSMART PRECISION DIGITAL SCALE for about $35.00 or so. It doesn't tell me all of that other stuff, but it is pretty accurate, and reads in tenths of a pound, too.
