Maddie&EthansMom replied: I lost ONE

coasterqueen replied: I lost 2.6 
So that's 6.6 total! 
ammommy replied: Well, I gained, so I won't play this week. Count me in next week, though 
kit_kats_mom replied: -2.0
So 8.0 overall for the group this week. 
TANNER'S MOM replied: 8.0 plus 2.5

11.1 total so far (cary forgot the .6  )
coasterqueen replied:
I was going to say that 0.6 is worthy of counting!  I take any tiny bit I can get these days.
Kaitlin'smom replied:
I agree, I take what I get theses days as long as it down down down
so anyone else
we are doing great!
11.1 and counting 
kit_kats_mom replied: I always did stink at math but dang, I seriously thought I had the addition down pretty well. Sorry 
Kaitlin'smom replied:
thats okay we all make mistakes
My3LilMonkeys replied: Well I am down .5 (I have been dieting for 3 weeks and this is the 1st I've lost!! I think I'm doing smtg wrong...)
So the new total....11.6
Maddie&EthansMom replied:
What diet are you doing? Low carb, low calorie? Are you getting enough calories? Are you working out?
Sorry if I missed a post. I'm a little concerned that you wouldn't be a loser after 3 weeks, though b/c that is when you lose the most weight...your first 3 weeks.  
My3LilMonkeys replied: Thanks for the concern. I am doing low fat, low calorie. I know that I am not drinking enough water and not exercising enough. I don't have time to go to the gym or anything and can't walk b/c it is too cold to take the girls out so I have been doing a yoga DVD but I can't do a lot of the poses yet. Plus I know I should be doing at least some cardio but I don't know what to do. But maybe I either cut my calories too much or not enough?
Though I should probably start a new post for this instead of hijacking this one....
Maddie&EthansMom replied: I bet you are cutting too many calories. How many calories are you eating per day? How many were you getting (roughly) before you started your diet? You need to make sure you are getting at least 1200 calories per day and eat small meals. Exercise should make a difference, but not that much of one. I actually didn't see as much of a loss when I was working out more.
Try to get some info on WW and go that route. It is a well balanced plan and I bet you will notivce a difference
My3LilMonkeys replied: I am trying for 1500 a day but some days if I eat lots of veggies and stuff it is more like 1300-1400. Before I don't know exactly how much but probably over 2000 - I ate a LOT of junk.
Is there somewhere to get info on WW without buying all the stuff and attending meetings? We are on a tight budget and I don't think I could afford it but I'd like to do something to get the weight off.
Maddie&EthansMom replied: Yep, just check the archives here. There are a lot of people here on WW and I know several people have posted some things. If you have any specific questions feel free to start a new post and ask. I'm sure anyone would be willing to help you out.
