Who's ready to kiss the 140's goodbye?

I have been struggling. I bounced from 135 to way over 150 pounds, and now working to get that weight off...

149.2 this morning.

You are not alone! I was down to ~135 pounds a few months ago then binge-ate my way up to over 153 pounds, which of course stuck to my body like glue

I think I finally have things under control but man, it was hard.

Haven't weighed in a while but today was 147.4. Glad to be kissing the 140s goodbye.... AGAIN ... it is one long-a$$ kiss that is for sure

Binged yesterday, up 1.8 to 148. I can't wait to see 144, my 2014 and five year low.

Good Morning Ladies!

I am up at 3 am, done sleeping. My sleep has not been that great in days, just a few hours per night. I have not napped either. Wonder what is going on...

Scale was being kind to me, even at this early hour. 147.6

My first mini goal is 145; at first I wanted to reach it for Valentine's Day, but I think I can get there by the 6th of Feb, the latest.

Hey folks!

I can relate Sum 38 - my sleep habits are dreadful. I was up at about 3:00 and then made the mistake of trying to catch a few zzz's at 5:30 and had nightmares. I think it's just better to stay awake. Sometimes I use time release melatonin but it doesn't always work. I use a low dose. I heard we shouldn't take a lot.

Well my scale has been all over the place - down, up, down, up. So disappointing. I haven't even weighed in a while. My last post I was down to 142 then I ballooned back up to 151. I've been ill and taking a lot of cough medicine which is all sugar and lots of cough drops which is basically candy. I don't usually eat sugar and I don't take stuff with fake sugars. I'll hit the scale tomorrow to see where I am. Hopefully I'll be back in the 140s. I'll change my stats then.

Feel better, Lizzie.

Sorry about the sleep, Sum. That is rotten. At least the scale gave you good news.

Good news here too. 146.4 my Feb 1 goal was 144, my 2014 low, but i may not make that. It won't be too far away though.

Fluffypuppy:
Thank you fluffypuppy! I have a few more pounds to go to get back to goal, but I know I can do this.
Nice job on weighing in at 146! February 1st is still a few days away, you might get closer to your month's goal this week

Sum38:
3am is sooooo early! I sometimes am still awake at that hour! Hope you are able to go back to regular sleep hours soon. Are you going to sleep earlier?

Crimzon:
Same thing used to happen to me in college. If I had interrupted sleep (ie waking up in middle of night to finish homework and then going back to sleep), I'd get nightmares that were almost night terrors. Not fun. Good look on your weigh in tomorrow!

Sum--that kind of weight will go down fast.

I reluctantly got on the scale and I'm at 150 I'm not going to let it get me down today - just take a look at what I'm eating and logging it. May do Atkins Induction or Westman or something. Started this morning.

Thanks Fluffy - Today I feel a little better. Sure is hanging on. That great your near goal.

KissKiss - thanks. Glad I'm not the only one. You've come a long way on your journey and are doing great!!

See you guys later...
