Okay everyone, here's the weigh-in thread. If you join up, please post your weight once a week and, however you do measurements, preferably no less than once a month.
I have to admit I do some semi cheater things when it comes to this. I weigh on either Saturday or Sunday morning (I weigh my least when I am well rested), first thing in the morning and naked. So, the weight you see will be reflecting all of that. I have my measurements taken at my gym once a month although I'm trying for twice a month and will post those when they are up.
If you have any questions, let me know! If not, I'll be posting Saturday or Sunday morning with my weight!
xoxo Jenn

Here it is, first weigh-in! Gulp. I can't believe I'm admitting to The Internet how much I weigh. Or that I'm excited about weighing this much.... but, here it is.
I weighed this morning at 180.6 pounds. For me, this is REALLY fantastic news! When I started working really hard in January, I was hovering around 193- a weight I just can't believe I let myself get to. The loss from then to now has been pretty slow but that speed is entirely my own fault. Like my friend/trainer, Jenn says, you can't out train a questionable diet. So, two weeks ago, I gave up sugar. And check it out! Down to 180, a weight I haven't seen in at least a year! (Down from about 184 after our trip of eating doom.)
My goal is 150- sigh, 30 lbs to get there. I can do this though! And so can you!
xoxo

OK! My turn! I totally meant to do this late last week but slipped forgetfully off into a holiday weekend that ate my free time like a fat kid on a chocolate cake. Or i just just too busy watching Avatar: The Last Air Bender with my son haha. They are both about the same right?
But I did however let the scale tell me that I (as of Friday) weigh in at 288.7 pounds. Which isn't great, but It is what it is.
So there it is! I'll be back latter to report some good news!

Ok, so I don't actually own a scale. This means that I have to endure the humiliation of the Wii balance board telling me that I've gained weight since my last weigh-in and appropriately modifying my mii to reflect said weight gain. Thank you, evil little Japanese men for finding a creative way to personally mock the fat American woman. *sigh*
Today I weighed in at 146 pounds, which accurately reflects my eating habits and lack of exercise habits of late. I've decided to stick to my goal of 125 because I want to have some good muscle mass. So, 20 pounds to lose. I'll have to do measurements later, I'll share if I remember to!

Sorry, last post was me, I didn't log in first. I'm fired. Hahaha not fired! Maybe we just need to give you a quick tutorial on logging before commenting. Yay for weigh-ins! And you can TOTALLY knock 20 pounds! At a pound a week, you could have it done just in time to eat your weight in turkey and stuffing at Thanksgiving!

Ugh, I'm really not thrilled to be posting this today.
I weighed in at 180.0 yesterday. Aka down by .6 pounds. I have a litany of excuses that I'm telling myself, most of which have to do with my owning a $15 Target scale whose battery is dying. So.... I weigh in at the gym again tomorrow night and I'm hoping it will reflect a 2 pound loss since I weighed in there two weeks ago. Beyond that, DH and I are buying a different scale and I'm going to keep working hard. I'm not really sure what more I can be doing.
Grumpersons post. Sorry guys.

Okay, I finally got around to going upstairs and weighing myself. Note to self: get a scale for my bathroom.
I'm at 259 lbs. Which is kind of weird. The last time I checked my weight, which must have been at least two or more months ago at the doctor's office, I weighed 259 lbs. So I haven't gained any weight, which is good. And I wasn't eating very healthily last week, either.
While it strikes me as odd to match my earlier weight exactly, this gives me hope that perhaps it will be easier for me to lose weight by altering my eating habits and getting a little exercise...

Success!
I weighed this morning on a whim, wanted to see if weighing after a day of rest mattered at all- and it did! Hello 179.4! You are what I was hoping to see!! WOOOO! See you later, 180s!

Hey guys.
Sorry for being absent, I'm crazy sick.
But, on the upside, I weighed in at 177 this morning! I was hoping to make it back to my wedding weight (170) by our anniversary in October. But if I can keep this pace up, I'm pretty certain I'll get there by the end of August! w00t!

So, I weigh 234 lbs atm. I am hoping to get to 180, then go from there. :0) I do not think I have ever lost weight aside from when I had pneumonia and did not eat for 4 days. So even losing 10 lbs would make me elated. I weighed 180 before I had my kids, and gained 40 lbs with my son, and the rest with my daughter. I want to break the cycle of perma-weight xD

I've returned from the land of disease!
Hope that weigh ins are going well for you all.
Last week was a total loss for me because I was too sick to do anything but, apparently sick helps me keep dropping- I saw 175.6 yesterday. Woot! I'm nervous I'll gain some of it back now that I can eat again but, we'll see.
