The Weight Loss Thread

OMG on the Fitbit - our Blue Cross insurance at work is offering them free to anyone who will join the "program" meet certain goals and share the info with them. One of the bosses signed up last minute today and I rather meanly (it was Monday sigh) told him they'd be recording his poops!!! He told me I was being paranoid but had a funny look on his face and later saw him talking to the health enhancement coordinator probably trying to get his sign up sheet back LOL.. Yes, I am a joker and yes, I have gained 3 pounds in three weeks due to Easter candy, its been worth it, uh I think lol...

Share information with them?? I wouldn't like that! Thanks for the reminder to not buy any Easter candy Darn!

You can find the good organic meats at the grocery store almost at half price if you can get them 2 days before the expiration date on their package. I will buy all that they have on discount and put them in the freezer. This is what I do : )

I work for an insurance company and they try to pull crap like that all the time with us. Feels too much like "Big Brother" to me, and I'm not even paranoid. I just think they want to control every part of my life. I think the 10-16 hours a day I give them should be sufficient.

Again, good luck to everyone, whether you are maintaining, starting over, still ambling along the road. You can't succeed if you don't try!

Exactly! I'm not paranoid, am just skeptical with how they plan to use that information they're obtaining (through my paid insurance premiums)! To be honest, would love to give one a try - they say its an $89.95 retail value - am just ornery enough to buy one on my own at a better price and keep my bad info to myself lol :lol:

@Blase can you tell me more about your juice? Do you have a juicer or blender that you make it with or buy it?

Thanks, Ang

Hi Ang! I'll do a whole write up tomorrow!

Hi DK528, if it makes you feel any better, I started this thread on the old forum because I was motivated for about 5 weeks! I was down about 9 lbs, now it's only 5.

I need to lose a quick 10 because in 16 days me & DH will be NYC for two nights; lunch at Del Posto, dinner at Butter, maybe lunch at the Boathouse while in Central Park, drinks at 48 Lounge, ugh, know how many calories I'll intake in two days! Hopefully no rain and we'll be doing tons of waking!

Good luck, listen and let QueenB inspire you, she's doing fantastic!

Hope everyone had a good week. My eating was really good this week. Also made it to the gym four days. My body is feeling it now!! I usually go on Sundays but I'm skipping it today to go shopping for Vegas. 10 more days, woohoo!! That's a workout, right? I will be back at it tomorrow. Good luck and have a great week!!

Just weighed in this morning and down 9 pounds. That's not a humongous amount for a first week on Atkins though, because one always loses a ton of water weight during the first week of this type of diet.
