[170starting]

I weighed in at 155.2 this morning. half-way through the 150's!!

[KurLEQ]

Congrats 170starting, Colleen, and InControl!! I think we are all about the same weight now! Quick losing to you all!

Amber, the scale was extremely nice to me this morning but I'm not jinxing it so we'll wait until tomorrow for official weigh in!

Hey girls! I know I have been MIA for a little while but life got kind of busy and online time got put on the back burner.

Just wanted to pop in to say that I have been on plan even while away from 3fc and hopefully will be seeing the 140's this week. I've been hovering around 150-151 for the past week. I officially weigh in on Mondays so I'm hoping to be able to join the 140's group next week. I don't ever recall weighing 140-anything in my adult life so it will be quite exciting to get there.

You girls are all doing so well. Hopefully we'll all be in the 140's soon!

Congrats, EsperanzaBella!

I finally broke my curse of 155!!! I weighed in tonight at 153.6! That's 1.6 pounds from 40 pounds! I'm excited because that seems like soooooo much! I'm doing my happy dance!!

It's my first time posting to this thread, but I came in at 159.5 this morning! Woohoo! Let's hope I'm under that by next weigh-in or I'm out of the club. Haha.

WAY TO GO KURRI!!!!!! Not only are you SO close to your 40lb mark, you're also getting REALLY close to the 140s!!!! CONGRATS!!!!

Welcome Sarahlynn!! Congrats on making it out of the 160s!! Good luck to you!!

[KurLEQ]

Hahaha Amber with my recent track record I'll be in the 140s in October!!! How do you think you are doing this week?

Congrats, Sarahlynn! How often do you weigh in?

[Amba Dawn]

LOL, Kurri! I dunno...I'm kind of scared to get on the scale!! I've been eating really well, but I've been extremely tired this week for some reason, so I haven't gotten in nearly as much exercise as normally try to do. So I dunno if I'll see much of a loss this week...I doubt I gained, but I'm not too confident for a loss. Maybe I'll get a nice surprise tho!! It sucks...in the beginning of this whole thing I could lose easily without any exercise at all...not now!! Takes a lot more work these days!

I've been thinking a lot about changing my goal weight. My goal weight now is what I weighed my senior year of high school. I've had 2 kids since then...and I really do believe your body changes and carries weight differently as you get a little older. At 155, I don't think I look that much bigger than I did at 130-135 back then. I'm going to lose a little bit more and work on toning upbefore I decide for sure. But if I do change it, I'll probably bump it up to 140-145ish.

[170starting]

I weighed-in at 154.2 this morning... I am officially closer to 150 than 160.

[InControl2Day]

I weighed in at 152 lbs this morning maybe I'll be out of this thread by next week.

Everyone is doing so well in this thread!

I think you look fabulous in your profile picture. I'm also just putting a goal weight on my ticker until I get there to assess where I want to go from there . It sounds like you are very in tune with what you want and not letting a number outweigh being healthy and happy !

Hey guys is it ok if I join? I've been stuck at 157 foreverrrr...

Thank you!! It's nice to finally have a plan and to be sticking to it. Usually weigh in once a week, but as of late it's been more often. I need to stop doing that, because I know it's not entirely accurate. But I'm just so curious.

[KurLEQ]

sarahlynn, I weigh myself all the time too! I think it's good to have a set day to weigh yourself and only "count" that weight. That's how I do it. I weigh myself every morning but as a family we have a weigh in every Wednesday at 5ish and that's the weight I use to control my ticker.

Amber, I had been thinking about it alot lately too. I picked 135 because I went to my aunt's wedding when I was 135 and I love the way I looked back then. (I'll post a picture from it) Between that wedding in July of 2003 and my cousin's wedding in May of 2004 I gained 15 pounds (Not that unhealthy of a gain because I was bedridden for the end of 2002/ beginning of 2003) and was at around 150. If I look at the pictures from the second wedding, I don't think I look like I weigh 3 pounds less than I do now... 3 pounds isn't that much different but I feel like I weigh so much more now.

I also look at pictures of my TWIN sister last year at 145 and although back then I thought she looked good, now I think that if I looked like that at 145, I would probably continue dieting. I know it's horrible to judge like that because we really have different shapes. Even though we are about the same weight she wears clothes 2 sizes smaller than me.

Lastly, sometimes I look at these women who are my height and are 110-120 and I think, if I stop at 135 how will I ever compare to them? I hate being a stupid fish in the sea

135: 7/12/03 (navy blue dress)


150: 5/15/04


And just to compare: Me at 155 a few weeks ago

[KurLEQ]

LMAO I just realized now that my brother wore the same suit, shirt and tie to both weddings!!!

[BeautyandtheBeast]

Today I weighed in at 152.2! Whoo-hoo! I am so so close! Oh, I really hope I get there soon!
