Heavens to mergatroids!!! Jeeshopizza!!! Six and one half pounds!

Ref, is a prune juice probe in order?

Seriously, congrats Mr. Chimp -- I know you have hit the road Jack and you won't be coming back no more, no more to that "old" weight! Way to go, guy!

Gollyjeewillakers (sp?) what a load of, um, weight you dropped this week!

Seriously, congrats to the chimp for a great week. Good for you!

SuperBob, if you hadn't used the word, probe, possibly.

But since you did, I refuse to touch this one with a 10 foot probe . . . oops, I mean pole!

Cooker, you've got a winning combination going. Terrific job!!!!

Six POUNDS! Absolutely outstanding!

I'm in this throwdown for maintenance support, having reached my goal weight some 18 months ago. Now I'm fighting to stay here.
Starting weight 172 (adjusted for new WW scale)
Last Week's Weight 133.5 (holiday Mulligan!)
This week's weight: 131.1
This week's loss: 2.4 lbs
Total loss: 41 lbs
Ideal weight: 129

The salt-free recipes and marinades really helped. Yes, I know I owe recipes! Betcha I have time to post them this weekend, what with Ike shutting down outdoor activities for the weekend....now, if I can just get Jet exercised Saturday morning before the rain hits Dallas.

How'd I do it? ... Joined Weight Watchers, stayed with it and walked 3 miles everyday rain or shine .... hang tough Ton, 2 pounds is nothing to freak about ... could be water and will come right off

I'm down a half pound.
Not great, but I'm not fussing!

 

[Wise]

I can't find our WW weigh-in books. So, I'll just report that I gained 1.8 pounds and Cindy lost 2 pounds. She has now lost a total of 31.8 pounds. I've gone backwards to a 25.4 pound total loss. The heat is on!

Hi guys and way to go Cooker,thats great , but ....it wasn't really nice
of you to give Aussigal 2 Lbs and you had better not send me any--I
don't need any.
I stayed the same this week; which means I have lost a total of 3 lbs
since I started the Throwdown.I also have edema again
On the up-side I have been walking more and bike riding some,but not
everyday like I should.

Mary-atleast you went down a little,added to last week thats pretty
good.

Wise-I tried to tell you not to eat too much cake for your birthday.... but
don't feel bad - you should see the way I act around ice cream
Good Luck Everyone!!

Superbob was down 1.5 pounds this morning despite having done not much more than shuffle around. Maybe there is caloric expenditure in all his whining.

Good for you Superbob. If a little bit of whining is all it takes, I think I'll do a whole lot of it this week.

Pass the cheese!

Dina ... Staying the same is a victory too and I can't be responsible where the pounds land

Good job ... and whatever works ... I don't think The Ref can ban whining ... if she did we would all be fined

Cooker...I thought you were already a WW member?...Oh well...I am sure those miles you walked were better for you than a prune juice smoothie...
I guess I really am gonna have to get my feet moving if I want to have any chance of dropping the extra poundage. No such thing as lazy weightloss hey!?

I have a few pounds to drop before its my turn to eat cake!

 

[skeptic49]

Well, I must say that the weight losses here are impressive. I'm ashamed to say that I still don't have my eating under control. Looking at this weekly thread is an extra incentive, though, to finally buckle down and try to shed some of those extra 25 or so lbs. I'm carrying. Last time I stepped on the scale a few days ago I was 226.5. Now I've gone and done it. Let me see if I can at least not gain!

Ton... I was trying to do the points but was not going to meetings and keeping track of the points like I should and that's what I'm doing now along with the walking. I had my WW weigh in this morning (Saturday) and was down 8 pounds from last Saturday .. I know it will slow down but as long as it does not stop I will be happy.....
