Smile hello!!

hi guys,

I posted on the daily low carber last week... but here I am now.

stats

10/23/01 - 205 lbs
10/29/01 - 201 lbs

not bad eh?

the secret for me is not to cheat LOL!!!

I did so well this week end. I made my hubby porridge (secret recipe ), and banana bread!) and I didn't eat any of it!! YAY!! That was hard. I accidently licked the batter spoon once! LOL does that count???

Went out to a restaurant for breakfast and I told the waiter I couldn't have gluten or starch with my omelette, so he came out with my omelette and lots of fresh veggies, instead of toast and potatoes! that was nice!! so he got a big tip!

good luck guys and gals! post ya next week!

Yay! I was able to lose as well!! 3 lbs! You're right Steph, the key is not to cheat. (I did cheat over the weekend, but had already lost and did not gain...whew...lucky for me, back on track this week!) I also added in a couple of runs (2 miles each) when I had time. It was nice just go out and do it without dreading a scheduled exercise time. Felt bad that I didn't do anything yesterday. Hopefully I've started a trend!

I forgort to post my numbers for last week: 161/148/125

This week: 161/145/125 20 lbs to go!

CONGRATULATIONS ... Looks like everyone (but me ) has lost weight. Great going folks!

I just started this challenge today so don't have any weight loss to report.

I'm curious about the way people are posting their stats, is that just for this challenge rather than their total LC stats? By this I mean ...

I began over a year ago so I post my stats as:
Beginning weight/current weight/goal weight
174/160/120

But for this challenge should I post this way?
160/Monday's posting weight/goal by Christmas weight?

Hope someone can answer these questions.

Ciao,
Norma June

Oh by the way, this morning we left early (we have an appraisal business and often eat on the road).

We drove into Tim Horton's at a rest stop and got coffee. I went to a sub shop and asked the gal if she would just sell me some meat slices ... she said "sure!".

My DH got a sub and I had 8 slices of meat. She rang it in as "Extra Meat" and charged me 97 cents.

I thought I'd mention this in case any of you are hard pressed to get something to eat on the road. Next time I'm going to ask for one of those big slices of cheese they have there.

I see nothing there to have a sad face about! That's fantastic!

I don't know what you were losing before, but 2 pounds in one week is FABulous. The closer to goal, the slower it gets - you have less percentage of body fat to lose.... so 2 pounds on the smaller person that you are is a lot!

I am not going to figure out my weekly goals, that is going to drive me insane (I know it is a short drive) due to swooshes and valleys...
