The Final Wednesday Weigh-In

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Yes, folks, the blog is finally back, critter-free. The poor little darlings left on their own, so they’re all safe and sound somewhere else.

Now for the final Wednesday weigh-in. I actually overshot the mark.

I lost 2 pounds this week, probably due to a combination of stress and illness. Nevertheless, I blew past my target weight (by 1 measly pound, I know, but it was easy and unexpected).

It’s possible I might gain a pound next week if illness played a role. But I’m fairly confident I won’t regain any significant weight over the summer.

So if anyone’s still reading after my prolonged absence, tell me how you did this week.

Wednesday Weigh-In #12

Tuesday, May 1st, 2007

I’m doing this one day early because the critter man comes tomorrow. That means my office will be shut down for at least 2 days.

Okay, now to the weigh-in. I lost another pound this week which means I have 1 to go.

How’d you do this week?

Wednesday Weigh-In #11

Wednesday, April 25th, 2007

I stayed the same this week. Still 2 pounds to go.

That doesn’t surprise me because I’m getting close to my target weight.

So how’d you do this week?

Wednesday Weigh-In #10

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

I lost 1 pound this week. 2 to go.

There’s not much to say here. Slow and steady wins the race.

How’d you do?

Wednesday Weigh-In #9

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

Okay, I finally got past the 1/2-pound mark and the scale went down 1 pound.

3 pounds to go, which is a good feeling going into summer.

How’d you do this week?

Wednesday Weigh-In #8

Wednesday, April 4th, 2007

I’ll make this quick because a thunderstorm is starting and I don’t want to fry my computer.

I can’t get the same weight twice in a row on my digital scale this morning. One time, it says I lost a pound. The next time, it says I’m the same as last week.

I think I’m right at the half-pound mark and the scale doesn’t know whether to round up or round down.

What a dumb scale! You always round down.

But just to be conservative, I’ll say I stayed the same this week. Still 4 pounds to go.

How’d you do?

Wednesday Weigh-In #7

Friday, March 30th, 2007

Someone pointed out to me that I forgot to post my Wednesday Weigh-In #7 on Wednesday. I’ve had a few times where I delayed posting until Thursday, but this is the first time I posted on Friday.

I was planning to continue with the “Focus On Weight Loss Success” series today, but I’ll honor the request I got for the weigh-in.

For the record, I didn’t take 2 extra days to lose the weight. These really are Wednesday’s results.

I went back on the plan and lost another pound. Four to go.

This puts me back where I was before I deliberately gained a pound last week. I won’t be doing that again anytime soon. Summer clothes are just too revealing and it’s starting to get hot around here.

So how’d you do?

Wednesday Weigh-In #6

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

This week, I tried something different. I deliberately blew my diet and gained a pound.

Why would I do that?

(more…)

Wednesday Weigh-In #5

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007

I lost another pound this week. Four to go.

So it looks like the Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies didn’t do any damage after all.

How’d your week go?

Wednesday Weigh-In #4

Wednesday, March 7th, 2007

I lost another pound this week. Five to go.

So far, the Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies haven’t hurt my weight loss.

Either that or I’m in for a big, fat surprise next week. I don’t care. They’re too good to give up.

Truthfully, I know they won’t affect my weight loss. I’ve put them in my plan.

Am I a bad influence or what?
