I LOVE pillow fights! As long as my husband isn't involved, he knocks the wind out of me with a feather pillow.

I got obsessed with the numbers myself. It was highly discouraging.

I also have noticed that if I wait a couple of weeks, I'll see a change in the numbers in a positive way (or negative depending on when I do it/how my diet's been)

Thats a good idea. At my work we all walk and clime ladders all day, the manager decided it would be good idea for all of us to stretch each morning. Every little bit counts.

LAST order of business: What about some things to bring more people in? We have a promoter for the club and a writer who blogs for us now. What other things can we do to get people interested in healthy living and coming to the meetings?

I always end up weighing myself right before aunt flo, so it depresses me more

Right on! The MS 150 is a great event. My dad is one of the top 10 national fundraisers individually for the past few yrs & also gathers donations for things like medical supplies/first aid stuff/snacks/little gifts/etc for the riders for our local MS 150.

I just started a new job and I find myself purposefully taking extra trips back and forth across the office instead of loading up my arms for only one trip. I think of you guys every lap I make.

Thank you! That sounds awesome! I just suck at tracking stuff & am really focused on some other goals atm. ADD + processing disorder make tracking stuff a pain in the ass x 10000000000. LOL. Maybe I'll make that my personal goal next month though, b/c it's not as if I'm incapable by any means.

What if you start tracking successes within the group and advertising it. People might see that the club is helping and want to join?

That's a good idea. I have terrible traffic. I'm not much into blogging myself. It's why the Cafe works so well for me, when I have something to say, I just write a post. Otherwise, I don't blog.

That is really awesome! Thanks your dad personally from me! His support helps me and people like me directly every single day! It is one of the only organizations that raise money and it actually makes it back to the people who need it! My medication costs $12k/every 3 months. People like your dad help keep those costs down significantly for us!

probably because you are bloated and feel fat, so you weigh yourself to make sure you aren't gaining weight... but because you are all bloaty, you actually have gained weight. You should start weighing yourself afterwards too, so you can feel all proud that you lost the weight

Which reminds me, you should also weigh yourself at the same time every time. I get up, pee, and weigh myself every day.

I started doing basically the same thing.
