8-30-18 Thursday Weigh-In...Last Weigh-In Of August

August is over so soon.. in two days

Why doesn't our weight go away

Everything seem to leave us fast

Except our weight that seems to want to last

We try every day, month and year

To lose those pounds that are so near

Yes.. near our stomach, back and hips

WE try to eat the right food that goes over our lips

Drink our water like they say

We exercise and in bed we don't lay

So everyday of the month we will try our best

Seems like every Thursday is a test

WE know the weight will come off but when

Hope it's not when we're a hundred and ten

Another week same for me. Hope you all fare well. Have a good day.

Very frustrating weigh-in for me today - up around 2#. I'm hoping it's due to the heat and swelling - will re-weigh and report tomorrow.

Does everyone have plans for the weekend? Our daughter turns 18 :eek: on Saturday and my Dad is down visiting for a few days. Several long runs on the training plan - heading out for 3.75 miles before it gets too crazy hot.

Good Morning Everyone --- Thanks for the poem Belle ... We are almost to the birthday bash month!!

My DH has decided that he wants to stop eating as much food and to try to be a littler healthier until he decides its time to go on a diet ... huh?? ... I'm sure he will lose everything very quickly (sigh).

I am down this week 0.2# .. I'll take it - Jan

Hi all!

Belle ~ nice poem. Boy it seems like August just flew by. All the better to be closer to our cruises!!;)

Jan ~ a move in the right direction.(y)

I stayed the same but don't know what next week will bring as I'm headed out to my sister's cottage for our annual sibs' day. There will be wine, snacks & yummy food.

Have a nice weekend.

~ Jo ~ :)

Hello,

Belle, great poem. Always enjoy them.

Belle, almost our bdays. You on Saturday, me next Tuesday. Enjoy your birthday.

I lost 2 lbs. this week. Brings my total to 11 lbs. Really happy about that. I am finally at "that certain number" I strive to get to. I would like to lose a couple more before we leave on Sept. 17th, we'll see.

Jo and Mike, at least no gain.

Jan, good loss.

pacruise, sorry you gained, have fun with your family.

Our weather the last week has been reasonable. Cooler in the mornings and high 80's. So nice when it's not 100+ everyday.

Have a good day.

Diana

I am up 0.6 lbs. Hopefully, next week it will be gone.

Diana, great loss. Congratulations!

Jan, congrats on your loss.

Mike and Jo, at least you didn't have a gain. Good luck with the upcoming week.

pacruise, sorry about the gain. Happy 18th Birthday to your daughter. Have a good time with your family.

Belle, have a great birthday this weekend.

Yes time to get ready for the Sept. Birthday Party in here! Open to everyone but it's for

us "Birthday Gals and Guys" For this party in here Calories and Carbs Don't count!

OK who's bringing the Champagne, Cake, Food, Decorations, and the Dancing men?

That's right, we don't need the dancing men we have Mike and shootr.:evilsmile::p

Party starts Sept 1st and can go on ALL month! Dress can be formal or you can wear

jeans or a robe. We don't care. Just being here makes you:cool:

Ok I decorated the room come one come all. The music is playing. (can be any music you want it to be)

Happy Birthday!

Sounds like we had a pretty good week Just a few small bumps.

Keep up the good work. I lost a whole half a pound!:)

Love birthday month!! Mine is the 18th ... I will be glad to bring the champagne :D:D

Oh my...if shootr and I are your entertainment, you’d better bring a lot of champagne!

Gosh why is working out so hard? I am going to figure out how to eat cake and lose weight.

Frustration is settling in. I have been working so hard and little loss.

I just keep saying "I think I can". And get on that treadmill.

Anyone else in frustration land with me?

BYW Happy Birthday September folks!

Happy Birthday Belle. Hope it's a great day.

Bj, yes, frustraing working so hard and not losing much. I've been trying to do different workouts and staying maybe a bit more hungry and eating a little less at dinner. Wih it all hlped more.

Congrats to the losers and stay-the-samers.

Diana

Hi all!

Belle ~ wishing you many happy healthy returns of the day. Happy Birthday!:champagne-toast:

I was up at my DS'cottage Thursday, eating lots of snacks so we'll see how that pans out. She had some yummy pretzels with peanut butter inside them, drool!

Anyhow, my DB told us his DW lost 50 lbs through WW & both my DS & I who could stand to lose that amount, were astounded as we remembered her as being slim! This is the 3rd person I've heard of having great results with WW. I'm intrigued but too cheap to pay money to lose weight!!:o

Have a nice Labour Day weekend.

~ Jo ~ :)

Sorry, only the missus seems to have the stomach to put up with me...[emoji52]

Oh my...if shootr and I are your entertainment, you’d better bring a lot of champagne!

But my friend keeps saying to me..."you put it on one pound at a time, now you have to take it off one pound at a time." She's so right!

I made such progress not working out. Now that I am it just feels like it is coming off so slowly.

Oh well back on the mill and next week should be better.

Thanks again for the encouragement!

Happy Birthday Belle!

Happy birthday, Belle!

Does anybody have mental strategies for avoiding too much weight gain during a cruise? We will be doing a back to back soon, and I saw one comment that a lady would remind herself during week one that she could avoid having to "try" everything, because she could get to it the following week.

I'm so tired from dancing. Isn't that "guy" in the band so cute?

Diana and Jan your Birthday will be here soon. Thank you both for the

beautiful necklace in my birth stone. (our pretend party, I can pretend I got a present):D
