KISS Day 6 :)

The scales are the same this morning - but you won't find me complaining - 7lbs in almost a week will do me just fine :D (though a couple more would also be fine too :lol: ).


Have a great day everybody :daizy:

Hi Girls!!

Yea Cori- I needed something a little different to drink...was not the same without a packet of splenda in it, but it was still good. Thinking about making some iced herbal tea too.

Wooo Hooo another pound down this morning...I can't believe it! But I will take it :) That makes 11.5# in 5 days....it is just unbelievable. I will take every bit I can get...yes!

OK...off to decide on breakfast, I am hungry this morning. Have a great Saurday...don't let the weekend sidetrack you!!

Hi guys!!!

Day 6 for me has started well ... had a late brunch of chicken breasts with garlic and chilli ... yum, yum!!!

I was in London yesterday with a friend and didnt get back until late so didnt manage to check in ... stuck to food KISS-wise, although - confession time - I did have one glass of champagne that my friend bought me before I arrived at the restuarant ... but it did taste good!!! Hopefully it wont effect me too much, although am now 100% back on the straight and narrow!!!!

Anyways ... it is a glorious day today, will take the papers out in the sunshine later and catch a few rays ... did a spot of gardening this morning and watched the Formula 1 qualifying which was good ...

Catch up with everyone later - Lindyx

I think the .5lb loss from yesterday stuck with me. It's a start. Honestly my scale is so inacurate I should get a new one. If I stand on my scale just the right way it reads about 3lb lighter, LOL. I'm just not sure where to get a reliable one. People have such varied opinions about the Tanita scales.

I have to get to the farmer's market this morning, though morning is almost over. I do enjoy sleeping in a bit on the weekends! And theres gardening to be done. Yesterday I noticed that my zinnias are about to bloom, and that it's time to weed again. Also a trip to the health store... time to get moving!

Y'all have a wonderful day!

=)

Can I join?
 

I know I am a bit late but I'd like to join for the rest of the month..:) I am going to start on Monday..I have to use up the unauthorized foods first like cream cheese and whipped cream....yummy...lol

Welcome Tammi!!

Monday is our weigh in day, so instead of giving us your 1st week's weight, you can just give us the starting weight :)

KISS Day 7 :)

The scales are the same this morning - still holding at 7lbs down for the week :) Hopefully will be the same tomorrow (or perhaps even down a little bit more :D) for official weigh day and stats change :thup:

Because we had friends for dinner last night, I didn't get to post my day's menus, so here they are:

Breakfast: 2 beef patties (small homemade burgers, made with horseradish and steakhouse pepper) with a 2-egg mushroom omelette
Lunch: Tuna Salsa Salad
Dinner: Nigella's Aromatic Pork, with asparagus spears and baby sweetcorn



Hope everyone has a great day :sunny:

Still wishing I had a better scale. those tiny little lines are so hard to read from up here! I suppose that's why I've always set goals at 5lb increments. Anyway, I think the scale may be reading 199 now... down another .5lb... I hope. Tomorrow is the big day, hoping to stick to 199 or drop to 198.

=)

Cori, I've got my fingers crossed for you, because if it is 199 or 198, then that means you'll be officially in ONEDERLAND :yay:

Hi Guys-

Late night last night, very slow start today. Scales were up .5# today. I am not letting myself get upset though - that is still an 11# loss for the week. I also don't thing it is anything to worry about, my eating was on a very wierd schedule yesterday...

I went to a class that was about a 2 1/2 hour ride away, it started at 7, ended at 11, and I didn't get home until 2:00 or so. Because of that I had eaten breakfast lunch and dinner all before 4:30 inthe afternoon, hoping it would hold me. Well as I am driving home about 12:30 I was STARVING so I had leftovers from the veggie platter I brought so I had some cucumbers, celery, 1 piece of pepper, and grape tomatoes, at that late hour. I figured the scales wouldnt show a huge difference. I was 100% KISS so I am not worried (yet ;) )

Here is my menu (for yesterday):

B: Scrambled eggs with scallions and eggplant sauce
L: Cut up chicken, tomato, scallion, with 1 T mayo :yum:
D: Pork chops cooked in olive oil with eggplant sauce (do you sense a pattern LOL)
S: Raw veggies

Exercised 30 minutes.

Remember...tomorrow is out 1st official weigh in day. Please remember to give me your loss and weight...if you havent given me your starting weight I need that too!

Have a great day 7!!

End of KISSing day 7 (and first week) for me :)


Today's menus:
Breakfast: 3-egg mushroom omelette
Lunch: Char grilled chicken with romaine and cherry tomatoes
Dinner: Roast beef with cauliflower and green beans


Looking forward to official weigh-in and stats change tomorrow :)

I'm confused why give up butter? Its pretty natural isn't it? Or does the food have to have not work done to it?

Quickie...its bedtime!!

Here is my menu for the day....week 1 is officially over...3 to go!

B: 3 hard boiled eggs
L: tuna, tomato, scallion, garlic and onion salt (forgot i ran out of mayo...was NOT happy lol)
S: 10 grape tomatoes and a hamburger patty
D: 2 pieces chicked breast cut up with mushrooms and eggplant sauce (whatever will I do when that is gone!? LOL)

Day off from exercise

Remember...weigh in tomorrow...we can do it gals!!!

~Michelle

End of KISSing Week 1 and I have lost 7lbs :yay:, which takes me down to 189 :)


Lessara: Butter is a dairy product, and dairy can cause problems for many people, so that is why it's a no-no on KISS. However, if you read through the KISS rules, one dairy product we don't have to give up is butter, mainly because of it's high fat content ~ in other words, there shouldn't be any lactose left in it, and lactose is the main culprit in causing allergies, weight stalls etc.



OK, Day 8 KISSing ~ onward and downward :D


Hope everyone has a great day and records good losses here today :thup:

Hi ladies!

Down another .5#today fro a total of 11.5# for week 1 :cheer:

Things are definitely slowing down though, so I have to keep reminding myself I wont lose 11.5 pounds every week so I dont get frustrated, and that doesnt mean I am doing bad.

OK...once I get everyone's weight, I will make a chart.

Have a great start to week 2 :)
