I'll start. I refuse to step on the scale after yesterday. I didn't stick to my plan, but I am not feeling guilty.
On the positive side, I stayed with my healthy eating for 5 days out of seven. Saturday night my husband & I went out for a date (good choices there), and we didn't eat dessert, but I had to have a "few" m&ms when we got home. Yesterday I just took half the day off of healthy eating. We all had dessert and more dessert for our evening meal after the big Easter Dinner(All 6 of us!LOL)
Exercise was good and consistant for 6 days and at least I had 5 good days
Any other brave souls want to admit being human ;-)

I had a good week as far as exercise but a really bad week as far as eating. I had healthy meals, just way too much chocolate. I had bought hershey's miniatures to fill plastic Easter Eggs and simply had too many chocolates leftover. Now they'll be leftover on my hips! Ouch. Oh well, I refuse to not allow myself some goodies on holidays! Simply refuse! And my grandmother's potato salad? No way am I missing out on that.
Hope everybody had a happy holiday this week.

Count me in as one who is not going near the scales for a while. I did well all last week but yesterday I pretty much ate what I wanted. No dessert though. I just joined a gym and will be putting a greater emphasis on weight training and see if that is the magic key to weight loss for me. I am kind of at a stand still and it is soooooo frustrating. I keep gaining and losing the same two pounds for some reason and I just can't get past it.
I'm with you Lisa, I wouldn't pass up the potato salad either.
Likes2bfit, I am brave enough to admit that I am extremely human. Sounds like you did great. We have to let loose every once in a while to relieve the pressure. Trying to lose weight is sometimes stressful and we need a break from it occasionally, don't you think? Sounded good anyway!!!
Keep up the great work.

I was human last weekend, and this week, I did great!!! I did not even eat one piece of Easter candy. Last week, I wanted to eat so bad, this week, it really isn't bothering me. I brought my food to my mom's, counted my points, and I lost 2 lbs.!!! This is the first week I have been a "loser" in awhile, so I am happy. I just hope I can continue for a few weeks. Best of luck to everyone this week.

"Human~NO! Immortal being is more like it!
Hi All
I was not human at all last week! I was so freaking good I should have sprouted wings! Stepped, no!~ballet leaped upon the scale this morning to rake in my prize (a hard earned one I might add), and what did I lose? 1lb., 1 d--n pound for all the effort I put in last week. And I'm not talking about the exercising, I love to workout, I workout every day, I'm talking about every cookie I said, "oh, no thank you!" to, and every Easter treat I said, "no, I really can't, but thank you anyway!" to. I never cheated once the entire week, and my only reward was 1 freaking pound!
Why am I displeased? I've had many, many weeks where I cheated or just plain out ate poorly and still lost 2 lbs.! So all week long I'm surviving off the knowledge that I surely will have lost 2-3 lbs., it will be so worth every tasty morsel I turned down all week!
So now, know what I've learned? Life is just too short and too unpredictable to deny myself little pleasures like a d--n cookie if I want it! Especially when I still only lost 1 d--n pound!
So~I'm reporting a loss, a loss is a loss, but this wasn't a happy loss. I toiled like a slave and stuck rigidly to my eating plan for that loss!
But tonight is our weekly "take out Monday" and I'm having my McDonalds and not thinking twice about it!
No more immortal stuff for me~being human is kinder!
Hope there are many losers this week~and if not, there's always next week!

Ah, another wordsmith in our midst.....while I surely can feel your pain with the scale, I love to read your posts! There is another one out there, "Susan P" who I always enjoyed reading.
This is not about weight at all, just words. There's nothin' better than reading good writing.

Crystal Come Lately
Hi all! I totally forgot to check-in.
I'm still at 200 but I'm happy because this is the first time I've maintained it without going back up to 205. Also, I've lost 1 inch in the hips, 1/2 inch in the waist.
I lost focus with my workouts and only got in 3 (I was also unusually tired probably due to TTOTM), however I did well eating within my calorie range and drinking water. Fringe benefit of the water was clear skin and none of the usual monthly zits!
197 is my next weigh in goal, 6 workouts planned this week.
Last night I did Cathe's Step Works and finished it for the 1st time (had to lower the step from 6" to 4" after 40min). It's the most fun you can have while gettin' your butt kicked.
Have a great week all

RE: Crystal Come Lately
Hello,
I'd love to join your group if you'll have me! I lost about 12 pounds since I started my New Year's resolution and I have about 25 more pounds to lose. I owe most of my success to exercise as a have a lot of work to do in cleaning up my diet. I'm sure I would see much more success if I had control over my eating habits!

RE: Crystal Come Lately
Welcome Dawn. Congrats on the 12 pounds.
Crystal: Your doing great. I remember how I loved going from 200 to being in the 90s. You should be there by now, right?
Donna: I know you are frustrated but you are just so darn funny. I feel your pain, really I do! I always say as long as I'm losing that's what counts. Even if it's a slow loss, it's still a loss!!!!
Lori: Yeaaaa for the 2 pounds. I would LOVE to see a 2-pound loss right about now. It took me 1 1/2 months to lose 2 pounds and I keep gaining it and losing it, gaining it and losing it. Really makes me mad but I know I will reach my goal because I'm not giving up until I do!!!!!
