"The weight is down again. Partly, I think, because I had another gallbladder attack. I know what the offending food was. ..."

"I had a hungry day yesterday. I went over my RDI by a little over 100 calories, and up on my carbs over my usual and cus ..."

"Welllll...this seems to be my regular pattern. I drop a lot one week, then gain a little back the next. Frustrating, but ..."

"Today was my uncle's funeral. Funerals are never fun, but this one had an extra heaviness to it. In just 14 months, my f ..."

"I'm still feeling a bit rocky from that gallbladder attack I had, but better than yesterday and the day before. I'm below ..."

"The Atkins endulge bars set up cravings and the desire to eat everything in sight. I didn't cave in to the non-allowed foods. I did, however way over eat at least one day. I was taken off my high blood pressure med with the diuretic. My doc did warn me I might see a temporary gain as my body adjusts to going off that diuretic. I didn't exercise regularly because low blood pressure was causing light-headedness. It was a bad week, but not a train wreck."

"I'm better this morning, though I have that run over by a steam-roller feeling. I'm sore from all the retching. The area ..."

" Well, now I don't know what to do about my food today. I had what I think is a major gallbladder attack and spent about ..."

"Oh my, oh my! I have to go to the doc tomorrow. I called and made an appointment. I've been feeling light headed, dizzy and ..."

"I decided to go with the weight on the wii. It's the difference between a $200 console and a $100 sensor pad vs a digital ..."

"OK, now I don't know what to do. My Wii fit says I weigh 254.6. This seemed light to me. I went ahead and did a workout, ..."

"I tried miracle noodles yesterday, the angel hair pasta variety. I made a little carb-friendly tomato sauce by using a can ..."

"My mind is made up. I am going to get a Wii fit. I don't care what my boys say about the games, or the graphics. It's my ..."

"OK, so I'm not weighing every day. I couldn't resist this morning. I have 1 challenge week ending today and one in 4 days. ..."

"Ha! Went to Red Lobster with my folks and my 17 y.o., Charlie. He made the honor roll for the year. We're so proud of him. ..."

"It's Monday and I did NOT jump on the scales this morning. lol. I am trying really, really hard to weigh in just once a ..."

"The scale says I've gained a pound. I'm not going to get upset again. That's down 3 from yesterday. I know it's because I ..."

"I do not understand...not, not, not. I weighed myself this morning, a day early for my weekly weigh-in. I'm back up to 2 ..."

"Arghhhhhhhhh! Diet going ok. In fact, I'm finding it hard to cram in my RDI, but as long as I make at least 1500 calories ..."

"Welllllll...I went 107% on my RDI today. However, I'm still within my carbs and my overall for the month is still 95% of ..."

"I measured myself this morning and I've lost another inch off of waist and hips, for a total of 3 off of each. That's very ..."
