Fatty Friday

Didn't we have a weigh in/check in going on?  What happened to that? 

Re: Fatty Friday

  • I dunno, but after all those Georgetown Cupcakes, my arse is not getting on a scale.
  • Which is why I put all of mine in baggies and shoved them in the freezer.  I allow myself to have one every now and then as a treat.  I only have 1 left though...BUT I gave most of mine away.
  • I have a bridesmaid dress I need to fit into in 37 days & I'm really dreading making the alterations appt b/c I don't want to have let it out b/c I've gained too much weight! Sad

    I guess that's what I get for being sized for the dress right after my wedding, when I was at my thinnest & then "letting myself go" for the past 6 months!

  • Don't be so hard on yourself.  I think most of us do that!

    So is anyone interested in having a weekly "meeting"  Maybe a weigh in saying if you lost or gained and then a topic of interest like fave exercise or something?  I don't mind doing it if no one else wants to OR if the original person doing it wants to start hers up again, that would be great too.

    Now that would have been a good idea.  I pretty much split the dozen with DH, but still... thos cherry cheesecake cupcakes..HOLY MOLY.  I'm trying not to even think about it because I seriously want to order a dozen of them.

     If it makes you feel a little better I ate a whole bag of microwave popcorn on my wedding night and for the rest of the time we were in Hawaii I stuffed my face at every restaurant we went too Stick out tongue

    I think a weekly "meeting" is a great idea! I say go for it!

  • I think the weight ins are a great idea! I gained 15 pounds after the wedding...yes 15! And I'm down 7 of those, I must keep going and I seriously need motivation.

  • I'm in!  I gained 42 pounds during my pregnancy.  Yes, 42 pounds.  Considering how tiny I am normally (I'm only 5'2") that's a ton of weight.  I dropped 20 so far, but that seems to be all that is going to come off without hard work.  I think I'm whipping out my WW books this weekend.  I'm tempted to get out my wedding dress so that I can cry when I can't get it past my ankles.  That would knock some sense into me!

    I think Friday would be a great day for a check so that when we cheat over the weekends, we have enough time to work it off over the week :)

    This is EXACTLY why I used to go to WW meetings on Thursday nights.  :)  I could be bad Friday, Saturday, and Sunday morning, and still make up for it in time.  Since we're doing this online, I say Friday sounds great.

  • I'm in!  I definitely could use the motivation.  I've started back on WW and have been working out more.  Friday "weigh in" sounds good.

    I was actually thinking of friday for the same reason BUT to help keep us on track!  I know (me included) a lot of people tend to slack on the weekends so maybe having a meeting on Friday we can encourage each other to stay on track on the weekends.  

    We'll start next Friday.  So excited!

    This is me too... It makes me sad, and I need to get off my butt and do something about it. So I'll participate.

  • I'm in, too! I've been trying to keep up with my running and I'm hoping to do two 5k's with my sister this fall, so I could use some motivation to keep up with it!
