6-9-16 Thursday Weigh-In...Hazy Lazy Days Of Summer!

Recommended Posts

Remember those days when we were carefree

Running, playing, and going on vacations to the sea

 

All the exercise we would get everyday

We just had fun didn't know we were getting exercise in any way

 

Don't we wish we could get exercise and not know we were doing it

Now we think about it and think it's a chore and want to sit

 

Lets make believe we are younger and lets have fun

Ride our bikes, swim, walk around the block or go for a run

 

We were so busy going here and there we forgot to eat

Wouldn't it be nice now if we forgot to eat food and sweets

 

So lets drink our water and think how we are going to exercise today

And all of our Hazy Lazy Summer Days, just not the day we weigh

 

So go Enjoy Yourselves and have a Happy Summer!

Good morning Belle, and all the other cruisers watching the scale.

 

This week I found out why my back's been hurting. I have something called spondylolisthesis, which means that one or two of my vertebrae are out of alignment. Other than physical therapy there's not much that can be done. My doctor told me that one of the main reasons why this happened is my excessive weight over a period of many years. And the best thing I can do for myself is continue to lose. So this gives me even more motivation to stick with it.

 

After a slow start last week, I buckled down and lost a pound - down to 196.5, a total of 29.5 since I started on Feb. 9. 16.5 to go until I reach my goal weight.

 

I hope everyone is doing well.

Hello,

 

Hi Belle, thanks for the ditty.

 

Hmmm, my scale is being very mean to me, it won't budge, how rude! Stayed the same again.

 

Cruiserman, sorry on the back troubles. Getting close to goal, that's awesome.

 

Jamdoll, welcome. Nice to have someone new.

 

I hope to post a loss next week. Good luck to everyone.

 

Diana

Hi, Belle. Thanks for the poem.

 

cruiserman and chef...congrats on your losses.

 

jamdoll, welcome in and good luck.

 

Diana, hopefully you will see a loss next week. Good luck.

 

I am up 2lbs. I am leaving on my cruise in 5 weeks and I am not near my cruise goal weight at all. I need to do better.

Ok. This sound like a fun Forum. Think I'd like to join. Been packing on the pounds since I hit menopause three years ago. I'm at 210. Starting a low carb diet. Hope I'm nice and trim for my Vista Cruise in November.

Welcome Jamdoll and Eedee

and hello to..cruiserman, Diana, Chef and Rose.

 

Hope everyone has a good weekend that

gives you a loss and not a gain.

 

See there are cruises coming up for some.

Know you'll have a good time and trying to lose

some weight for the cruise is nice. Just

remember whatever you lose is good even if not

as much as you want.

 

Eating right and getting healthy and losing weight

is something we need to do for life. Even thro we

know we will have our ups and downs.

 

You all take care.

HI all!

 

Belle ~ thanks for the stroll down memory lane. Exercise was so much easier when we were young!;)

 

Welcome to the new posters & congrats to all losers.:D

 

I'm amongst the losers this week having lost 2 lbs! We got a new scale but it's pretty close to the other one so the number is valid but amazing to me! The problem for me is when I see I am losing I tend to want celebratory items like chips or chocolate!:o

 

Have a nice weekend.

 

~ Jo ~ :)

Ok. So how does this Forum work? We weigh in every Thursday?

Yes, we weigh in on Thursdays and then post our gain, loss or if we stayed the same. Some people explain what their eating habits are to try to inspire the rest of us. I am one who needs the inspiration. :D

Hi everybody!

 

Sorry I'm late :p

 

We had a 3 day weekend for the Queen's birthday so I haven't really been home.

 

It's starting to cool down, weather has been great. Seasons are opposite here, so when it's your summer, it's our winter and vice versa.

 

For the first time since I started in January, I'm up 400 grams this week. That's roughly one pound. I'm not bummed or anything, I'm actually surprised I made it all this time without a gain considering how horrific some of my weeks have been.

 

I'm starting yoga back up on Tuesday. However, instead of doing it in my living room where my cat can break my leg again, I'm going to a studio. My leg is still achy, so I don't want to push it too much.

 

Hope everyone has a great week!

 

Isabel
