speaking of holiday weight gain...

when we were on the knot we had a weekly thing where we would talk about how much weight we had lost that week and weight loss related stuff.

with most of us complaining about holiday weight gain, or after wedding weight gain, I was wondering if maybe we would want to do that again. I know the support was a help for me when we would do it.

what do you girls think?

Re: speaking of holiday weight gain...

  • i'm not opposed.  I just want all my jeans to fit again :-D
  • Me too. It's crazy how much my dryer is shrinking my jeans Wink
  • I am in....I need to be held accountable and feel as though I need to be pushed...can be a bit lazy at times.

  • I'm in too! I was doing WW through work, but I can't afford it anymore. I'm hoping to be able to keep it up on my own... but not being held accountable at the meetings I'm worried I'll slip. Hopefully being held accountable here will keep me motivated!

    Ha, I've been telling myself that at least once a week. "Man, I must have just washed these jeans they're usually not so tight"

     

    I'd be up for this idea too!

  • Tanha, I am totally in!! I'm actually going to be doing the biggest loser at my work! And the dietician in the hospital is giving us all free counseling! Woot! So I'll definitely share!

    Maybe if one of us makes a post weekly for us all to discuss things, we can have Ma make it a sticky?

  • I totally could use some additional motivation to get in better shape.  In light of some recent posts on self-esteem perhaps we could frame this in terms of hours worked out and ways we have improved our diets (not sure how to quantify this as I'm not about to start counting calories).  There's also a program at my school called Active U that will be starting up soon where each week you set a goal of how many hours you want to be active and then you record your hours and your performance is based on the percentage of your goal hours you have completed.  Perhaps we could have a Nestie Active U group where we state our goals each week and report back on how we did the previous week.

  • I gotta do something! I was cleaning out my closet right before new year so I could get one last donation slip for taxes Stick out tongue and found all my 1/2 pants...UGH!! I am 10 or 11 now and I could wear the 1/2's about a year and a half ago, last year at this time I was a 5. How did I gain that much weight???

    I might check out the zumba on Wii too.

    We could also start a "healthy recipe" sticky? Make something that you love and add it to the sticky. I think I will go buy a WW book today, maybe then we can all give eachother tips and tricks too.

    I am so not an "exerciser" so I need all the help I can get!!

  • I was hoping we could get a sticky or something. My and hubby just started WW online today. I weighed myself today...would we want to do a Sunday weigh in or maybe Monday...for me the beginning of the week always worked out well. any day would work though.

  • I'm in!  I went to the health and fitness board when we first switched over but it's just all about running, and I'm not at all a runner.  Jeremy and I started our diet yesterday, but I've had a sinus infection since Christmas and just don't feel like working out yet, but I'm very excited to get a regular workout routine going again

  • I'm definitely in!  I've gained a ridiculous amount of weight since the wedding.  I actually just joined Weight Watchers yesterday.  Have my first meeting and weigh in tomorrow!
