Weight-Loss Halloween Challange:The Texas Scale Massacre

Weight-Loss
okay so i slipped up last week since my baby was sick and we had a guest dog for a week (i love being volunteered.. ha)

but even though i gained i'm going to lose that AND more.. and i will reach my goal!!! ARG

everyone work hard and we can do thisss!!!

I wanna be under 200 by Jan 1st 2008 and i'm going to do it!
 
I bet all of us can't wait to weigh in as this week has been hard but I'm still holding strong on not touching the scale which before this challenge started I wasn't having a problem with wanting to check my progress out.. lol hope i can get back to the way i was without having the need to want to weigh in everyday. Keep up the great work all and for those who have fallen off track here's a hand to help pull you back on the wagon.

Yes i'm dieing.. everymorning my hubby has said "gonna weigh in" ARG.. the scale in locked in the hallway closet lol
 
Yay guys!!! More than half way through the week! woo hoo. I am kicking ass and taking names this week! We can do this!
 
Yes we sure can do this the week is almost done and I haven't touched the scale at all although i can feel it calling my name but since tom started I'm scared to touch it now.. hahah lol hope it doesn't reflect bad on saturdays weigh in.
 
Ok team - I havent been doign so well since the beginning of this challenege but I promise from now Im gonna do well - I dusted off my elliptical and did 7.25 miles on it this evening and it felt great!!!

Also not using the scale is killing me!!!
 
Congrats cerella on dusting off your elliptical and using it again last night. I know i feel bad when I don't get in any exercise so I'm glad you feel good after using it again. Keep up the great work.
 
ooo great job on the elliptical girl. 7.5 miles.... hells yeahhhh :p

i wish i could afford to buy one :( Were on a super tight budget so i have to stick my bike and exercise ball for at home exercise , id love to have a treadmill or elliptical to do while watching tv etc, that'd be great. Ohhhh well
 
Faye keep your eye open for garage sales. People tend to buy stuff and then not use it and then eventually sell it and usually can't sell it for much. So if you keep your eyes open you can find good deals. I have seen great treadmills go for $50! January is a bad time to look lol:)
 
oooh ok ill look out.

but i guess it would be kind of pointless for us to buy, seeing as were moving to Glasgow, Scotland in may hehe.

Id love to have one here, but i guess then id just have to worry about selling it or asking bf's parents to store it for 2 years :/

Lol... i was all excited about buying one then i came back down to reality and thought hmm.... yeahhh buying one then moving to the UK again.. maybe not one of your better ideas faye !
 
Fayefaye craigslist is a great place to look as well - I bought mine for 40 bucks she got it as a gift used it like once or twice ... I as well am on a tight budjet so is mamma4alex and she mangaged to get one:) WHen there is a will there is a way!
 
Howdy TEAMSTERS I get to DUST the ole scale off tomorrow for my weekly weigh in wpw seemed like eternity lol! I hope everyone has had a wonderful week I have struggled a bit but hopefully not enough to gain anything ,I haven't touched the scale all week and when I exersicced tomorw that will be 5 days for me.GL TAMMY

Faye, I got my elliptical from walmart for 168.82 plus tax then paid an extra 30 for the 2 year extended warrenty all came to about 199.00 which is great when your tight on money as I am and looking at the treadmills I wanted they were just way to much money.. would have had to save up for like 5-6 months before being able to get one. I wanted one right away so I looked on craiglist and freecycle.org they have a ton of people that want to get rid of stuff that will usually just give it away in return for something they want that you may have. I found a few on craiglist but the ones i did find where either you had to pick them up and being i don't have a truck would have been to hard or they didn't have enough power for the long haul type thing. anyways hope you are able to get one. Keep up the great work everyone. two more days till i can weigh in since i weighed in on saturday morning instead of friday.. Good luck to those of you who are weighing in tomorrow and those of us who are weighing in on saturday.
