You take that 2 lb. loss and run with it, Davy! You're gonna have to do lots of runnin' to keep up with the lady of the house :D You're doing a great job especially staying away from the Guinness! Stepping over 7 naked women?? WOW..you are REALLY serious!! or blind...lol Have a great day :) 

laughing merrily here... serious, blind or just dumb! chuckles do ya really have to ask.. later mary b, have yourself a sumptious day.... 

LOL! Congrats on your loss...it's funny that you have weight-loss envy directed at your wife, because it's usually the other way around, the tables will turn eventually, I'm sure. You are doing so well! And studying the Atkins bible too! I read a proverb or two last night before bed myself!  

you read a proverb or two last night! Is that code for something I should know???? (naive smile). Yeah... that mrs mary poopypants devine wife of mine is doing great, mind you she kinda tends to do things properly whereas I kinda "approximate" the routine and "infer" what the rules are... for instance SHE has nearly finished the Atkins book already (AND has taken notes) whereas I am still looking for the pictures! [perfection is just not my thing, it seems!] 

Glad your back!! So the wifey is doing better than you huh? Ha Ha Ha... don't worry, iffin' she is losing more than you right now... it's sure to stop and you'll reign as king!! Women are cursed w/ weight, pms, pregnancy, housework, husbands (lol).. etc... you'll be doing circles around her metabalism soon... it's just the way we're made.. =( ... Unless your cheating?!!???!??! LOL 

Go with the 2 lb loss, but steppin' daintily? over naked women? for a cold Guinness??? My mental picture shows either a mad rush towards the cold mug, not even thinking about where the feet land, OR running & chasing TRYING to catch the naked women, but just as either fantasy comes to the moment of truth here comes the wifey with either her smug smile & 4 lb loss OR the evil eye for what/who you have wrapped both arms around....Oh well, back to the Wednesday routine.....:) LOL 

Yay!! You're back!! Way to go on your two pounds!! Yes, thats right TWO!!! I'll meet you in loss country soon!! ...I hope.... :)  

Was wondering where you were. I think it depends on what the women look like, lol. If they were supermodels, you might rethink that pint of guiness! I agree with Lori, men are usually the winners in the weight loss category but you said yourself you blur the lines. Maybe you should mimick what she's doing and see what happens? Congrats on the loss!!! 

Chuckles... hi ya lori... now listen men have issues too ya know - like....like... stuff 'n'stuff will get back to ya on it. DW mrs mary wifeypants has a great line in throwing the eyes and tsking as she says "now apologise to the nice lady!" chuckles.. Keri.. will race ya there... whoever gets there first has a forfit! (yes! THAT has possibilities) and honestly kimmie... you are showing alarming signs of that thing...you know... logic and over intelligence! mercy! thats dangerous! 

Wow! GREAT job on getting them scales to start moving a bit more... shakin' 'em up, are ya?? Wishin' I could be so diligent... *slinkin' off to find a banana popsicle* 

I say, if you weighed in as normal (time, day, etc.), it's no fluke! You go with it and be proud of yourself! As for the naked women, take it from a wife, you'd BETTER step over them, or you'll be getting more than a look and a tsking!!! LOL! Have a great day! 

I'm so happy for Sarah's loss, come on, you know you're happy too because that means she is in total ketosis and in control of her health. I know you're proud of her too. Your whole family is doing just awesome! You are losing steadily too, which is a great sign that you're getting the hang of this Atkins thing. They're right, you know, men have an advantage because of more muscle mass. You'll get it soon, though.  

You're so funny, Dave... and doing awesome! Keep that 2lb loss, you deserve it. I say, the 1-lb-loss is the wrong one! 

Dave, HOW LOW are you planning on going in weight? 174?? My goodness, you are svelte already, aren't you?? I'm so happy for your wife losing 4 pounds for the week! we all know how hard she's working!!  

ps...and I forgot to mention how wonderful YOu are doing as well! keep carrying the olympic torch for us! 

I question "stepping daintily" and whether you will be able to walk at all if your wife catches you. I believe it will be a different sort of weight loss if she did. Congrats to both of you on your loss. 

hey! you shouldn't be weighing yourself twice in a day (Or so I'm told by the wise folks here!). And certainly, later in the day, you can for sure see a 2-pd gain--that's normal...so I recommend going with the first-thing-in-the-morning weight, in your case, the 2 ld drop!! Good job!! All that side-stepping 7 gorgeous women,and the pints of guinness is paying off brilliantly!! And maybe a little competition and "weight-envy" in the family won't be such a bad thing! ;)
