Default FINALLY hit my 140s!!!!

Lost 50lbs last year, then took a break at 150LBS last September. Then gained 10lbs, then started up again March 17th 2012.

I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN IN A 7 MONTH STALL. AHHHHHH!!!!

I HATE THE 150s

congrats! I totally understand you about the stall, but if you look at it in terms of an entire lifetime instead of just one year or a few months or 2 years, then little slip ups and the time it takes is so worth it! congrats to you and great job!

Just got here myself--the 150s are harsh! And I hear you on the feeling of a stall. I lost 60 lbs before I got pregnant with my youngest, gained 50+ lbs back, and had to relose that plus all the rest. Good for you for sticking through it, almost there!

Wow rainy days! We're going neck and neck here. I too am 146lbs, 5'6, and originally from the Midwest.

We should "hang"

Mine is all baby weight from my last baby. I should NEVER have waited this long to take it off (15 years) as my skin is ruined. A lot of women look good at my weight and height, but I've got chunky and loose skin everywhere. The loose skin could be worse but the chunky cellulite under it is totally disgusting. So I'm going to have to get my BMI as low as I can within a healthy rage to hide it.

Had I known I was going to ruin my body like this I would have taken this off right after giving birth like I did with my first two.

No more bathing suits or short sleeves for me, oh well. Although I do intend to dress like a slut for a while once I get down to my normal weight. Ha!
