Betty's progress...she's on fire!

From Betty Langager:

"RICK STAYED THE SAME WEIGHT, SAYS HE MADE THE MISTAKE ABOUT GOING BACK TO DRINKING SODA. (BAD BAD BAD)

HELEN DOES NOT WEIGHT UNTIL THURSDAY. SHE IS OFF ON WEDNESDAYS.

I AM VERY VERY PROUD OF MYSELF, I LOST 2.8 POUNDS SINCE LAST TUESDAY. I HAVE JOINED WEIGHT WATCHERS, i walk everyday at the mall for about a hour, also exercising in the physical therapy swimming pool at the hospital (can't swim) but do different exercises, and walk across the pool. I have tried 3 times to take beginners swimming lessons, but fail.

is it worth it??? are they????


Heather and I had a good talk yesterday. This is posted on my frig. One thing we discussed was how we feel about ourselves. How low is our self-esteem? Do we not feel like we deserve to be thin, healthy and pretty? So the question goes to this.....what about those who love us? Do they deserve to go through our heart attacks or even the pain of losing us because we're too lazy to get healthy? What do they deserve from us? Don't they deserve better? If we can't do it for ourselves.....can't we do it for the people who mean more to us than life itself? Think of someone you love. Would you die for them? Now, will you live for them?

EVALUATION TIME!

Time to evaluate!
  1. Why am I in this group?
  2. Am I trying my best?
  3. Do I want to continue?

Thursday, April 10, 2008

boooo....

Can't even sugar coat this week. As a total group we GAINED 11 POUNDS!!!! WE lost 2. What is going on? I can only speak for myself. My drive left. We are half way through and it seems like I am not the only one. Every day I say it will be different and I will exercise, etc... but I don't. I don't know what to do now. Am I the only one with the defeatist attitude? Your help is needed for me and this group. Please.....comment or encourage us all! I can't seem to do it because i am so discouraged. Are any of you ready to give us the push we need?

THIS WEEK:
No winner for week total % loss....there was none.

TOTAL:
Hotties are still leading with 5.26%
Pounders have 4.55%
Langager Girls have 2.71 %
Haven't got totals from others yet.
