Weight Loss Forum / WeightWatchers / August 2004Week 79 WI - Linda P
Week 79 WI: 146.8 lbs Weight change since WI: +2.6 lbs Total weight change to date: -85.2 lbs My mom's home from the hospital and is healing well from her bypass surgery. I spent all day with her yesterday to give my brother a break, and today, I went for a bike ride and then spent the afternoon at REI taking advantage of the summer clearance sale. Now I've got everything I need to go camping: a tent, sleeping bag and mat, cook stove, cookware. Picked up a few things for my bike too. I won't try to go camping Labor Day weekend; the parks are booked well in advance. But I'm sure I'll be able to fit in a couple of weekend trips before the season ends. Camping's better in the fall: fewer bugs. Lower humidity. Cooler temps. Colorful scenery. Not many people. I think my feeding frenzy has passed. I'm ready to start counting points and journaling and trying some new recipes. Today's bike ride took me to an area I hadn't been to before. The ride was cut short because of some miscommunication between the leader and one of the riders, and I wasn't the only one disappointed to have ridden only 15 miles. But no one fussed overly much. At least I have a map of the trail and could go on my own. There's a bike ride Wednesday evening I want to do; I'll have to leave work early but I'm definitely OK with that. One of my purchases at REI was a bike light for night riding and a reflective belt for extra visibility. Guess I should mention my WI. I'm up this week, close to exceeding the 2-lb limit for maintenance. No way am I complaining. I ate hospital food every night this week. I overate several times. I biked to work only once. Hey, I'm grateful I didn't balloon up to my starting weight, which I actually, and irrationally, feared before I stepped on the scale. The damage isn't so terrible that if I pay attention to my food this week and bike commute most days, the scale just might be nice to me next week. I can hope anyway. This is the best day of my life. -- Linda P week 79: 232/146.8/WW goal 145/personal goal ? next mini-goals: 144 (just CUZ)/143 (1 lb at a time!) started WW 22-Feb-2003 | 10% target: 1-May-2003 | WW goal: 24-Jul-2004 5'4" | 50 | F prairierootsmnSNIPTHIS@yahooANDTHIS.com Well good for you kiddo, you did not do too bad considering.

I'm grateful to feel like I can control my eating better. Although I found those 100 calorie packs of mini-somethings you've been raving about. Thank you very much. -- Linda P >Well good for you kiddo, you did not do too bad considering. I am passing on >even talking about it, maybe next week... Given everything going on in your life you did pretty good. Good luck next week. Enjoy your bike ride. > Week 79 WI: 146.8 lbs > Weight change since WI: +2.6 lbs [quoted text clipped - 41 lines] > > prairierootsmnSNIPTHIS@yahooANDTHIS.com Linda, Just a small bump in the road, life happens and you have to deal with it when it comes. Sounds like you have a plan for getting completely back on track, so follow through with that and that pesky 2.6 will be off before you know it. Debbie > Week 79 WI: 146.8 lbs > Weight change since WI: +2.6 lbs [quoted text clipped - 41 lines] > > prairierootsmnSNIPTHIS@yahooANDTHIS.com Linda, I'm glad to hear your mom is doing well!!! Congratulations on the bike ride--I haven't gone on one yet this summer--I probably should before time runs out!! Enjoy the camping when you go. My friend I just went camping on the coast last week, it was beautiful--I was suprised at how few bugs there were where we stayed. Have a good week and I'll keep my fingers crossed for you for next weeks weigh in!!!

Don't worry if you have one more slight increase or maintain before things start going your way again once you are back on track. >This is the best day of my life. Glad to hear it :) Ray Signaturermnsuk 273/187/182 Thanks Ray. I sure hope staying on program works as well for me as it has for you this week. I still haven't integrated a steady toning/conditioning routine into my life. Even with the Pilates machine sitting in my dining room. This week my goals are to bike commute at least 3 days, go on 1 group bike ride, and use the Pilates machine at least 4 times. Maybe setting specific goals like this will help. >>Week 79 WI: 146.8 lbs >>Weight change since WI: +2.6 lbs [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > >Ray Hi, Linda, too bad about this week.
