Weigh in = 168

That's a 2 pound gain from last week and I'm racking my brain trying to figure out why.  I stepped up my exercise routine with 4 cardio sessions and 4 strangth training sessions.  My eating was low calorie and lower carb all week.  It's not TTOM and I don't feel like I'm bloated or holding any excess water either. My measurements are the same too.  Frustrating? You bet!  Discouraging and making me want to give up? NO freaking way!  I'm going to fight like #%@&! these coming weeks and reach my goal darnit!

Get outta my way fat!:grin:

I guess it is possible that some proxy or cache is caching the image-no-available icon (which is obtained for very short periods of a few minutes when I actually update the image) and then keeps returning it instead of getting a fresh copy of the image.

If anyone has any ideas how to fix it for the people who can't see the table, don't keep it to yourselves.








My first weigh-in: still 52kg (114.5lb)

So I was just wondering what everyone was doing to lose weight?  Is it a diet, calorie watching, exercise?  I have to weigh in soon and am scared to be honest lol.  I am really happy for this challenge though, I hope there are more after ; )

Weigh in ~ 112lbs. I gained two pounds! :up_arrow:

It's cause I've been over eating every day for the past 5 days or so. I've been eating a lot of junk food.. :pizza:

I think they'd be able to see it if they cleared their cache or cookies. I clear mine every time I exit my browser.
Does refreshing work?

I'm weighing in a day early because i'm so VERY pleased with my 161.2

In order to understand my happiness over just a pound, it's important to know that after 3 days of 162 (sunday, monday, tuesday) of last week I jumped back up to 164 and have been steadily dropping-- so really, I feel as if I've lost almost 3 pounds!  :D

Finally a loss, I am down 3 pounds this week. I know that is a lot but it's just becuase I was eating so badly and then got real strict with myself last week. I needed to do that to get myself back on track. I am feeling great about the loss this week but I still have a ways to go.

Current weight 133.3.

I weighed in today at 206. 

That doesn't seem right, my eating has been horrible, but I have been working out, so somehow that could have caused me to loose weight, but I still don't feel like it's accurate. I think I need to buy a new scale

Hey Couch, you had a loss, enjoy it and don't worry. Maybe your eating wasn't as bad as you thought or maybe you just offset those extra calories (and a few more) with the increased exercise. We are so hard on ourselves, when we have a gain we never question whether it is accurate or not, we accept it. Why are we so reluctant to do the same with a loss? I know I tend to be the same way, I think it's just human nature. Anyway, if you got away with something, so be it, just keep going you're doing great.

Given the number of weeks left in the challenge and how 105lb would make you underweight, I'll assume your goal is 111lb.

As of next week I'm changing my weigh in day to Mondays.  The kids are back in school and the regular week works best for me.
