Diana,nothing like being at peace with this whole weight lost thing have a good visit with your Doctor.Glad you slept well.Everyone's given you great advise and like them,just meditate on it,analyze where you are and Do what makes you happy
As for me..i don't care what a chart says I'm suppose to weigh, my BMI or what people think..when i can look in a mirror and like what i see,feel comfortable where i am then I'll know..Job well done..,and stop pushing so hard. Mentally I'm getting to that point(changing my thinking a little) but I'll know when.

208.4 today. Down some of the water weight. I was super productive and got lots done in my house but came in a little low on calories. Back at things today. Making sure that I get enough calories! Planning on going to the gym tonite.
Really proud of everyone for sticking with it!!! We're all doing great!!
Twinmommaplusone - Hope you are feeling better Nicole - Congrats on the .4 loss! Fitkristi - Awesome drop! Matilda - Don’t worry you will get that woosh from too much salt in a day or two. Time2loseit - That’s hardly a bump on the scale, hang in there. Onami - Excellent job on the .6 loss Vixsin - Congrats on the loss! Asherdoodles - Sorry for your loss. Prayers be with you. Starbrite - 1.3 sweet keep rocking it! xXLosingitXx - Awesome 1.0 loss! Willowgirl - Small up, don’t let it stop you, keep going! Diana - Keep on with the positive attitude, you are doing awesome!
Well after weight training yesterday following 2 days off, too much sodium, and not enough sleep, I am up .6 to 186.8. It's ok though, just water. I can deal. I did 50 minutes on an elliptical yesterday. While, I have been exercising, I hadn't been on an elliptical in months. I had an elliptical craving. Who knew one could even have exercise cravings Might go do some more today instead of extra time on the treadmill after my C25K.
Paradise - Sorry for the hungry making. I bet you will be surprised by what a difference it makes once you start exercising.
Diana - I really think it is up to you at this point. You aren't far above 155, the difference will almost certainly not make you look too thin in the face or anything. You are also close enough that if you feel like you've made it you could call it goal. You're already within what you have chosen as your maintenance zone, so if you want to be done, I think that's ok, but if it will bother you forever that you didn't get to 155 then I think it is ok to keep reaching for it too.
Kukkie - Congrats on the elliptical and on having your new kitchen all sorted out. Yay healthy meals!
Willow - Is better to know.
Twinmomma - Sorry you've been ill, glad you are recovering.
fitkristi - WooHoo. Yay whooshes!
Vixsin - Congrats on getting rid of water weight and getting house chores done. Yay gym!
Coco - Yay, a down arrow! I love your little arrows!
I just got back from the Endo. My BP was great, it's 107/70. I think I've lost 12 pounds since I was there last. The Dr. is absolutely thrilled with my weight loss. My medicine is a little high, but it's not as much as the last time. She's dropping it to the next dose down. I asked her about my weight range. She said that I am just within the normal BMI range. If I want to stop there that I can and she would support me. (do you hear what's coming? can you sense it? ) But she would encourage me to just continue with my current lifestyle (eating and exercising) and see if my weight will naturally settle around 145. It seemed like she didn't want me to try any harder, just to continue what I've been doing. I expressed my concern with the comments I've been getting from other people. She asked me what does my DH say about it. (this is actually funny, because he is also a patient there. I have a feeling if I had said he was NOT supportive, she would give him an attitude adjustment on his next visit. ) Anyways I told her that he is 100% supportive and says for me to do what makes me happy. She said he is a very smart man. On to her response about the comments I've been getting. She said for me not to listen to them. She said that our society is so used to everyone being overweight, obese, and morbidly obese, that they get uncomfortable when someone is in a normal weight range.
The other thing she wanted me to do is to start taking an additional Vitamin D supplement. She said that hypothyroidism and Vitamin D deficiency go hand and hand.
She has also referred me to an allergist so I can get tested for my food allergies. I have it narrowed down, but I want to see what type of seafood, if any, I can eat.
YIKES! I almost didn't post because I'm kind of ashamed of myself, but here I am being accountable. I knew I had probably gained a bit during the move, what with the constant takeout and well intentioned but very unhealthy meals people kept bringing over. I just didn't realize how much. This morning I weighed in at 199.1 and it really shocked me into realizing how easy it is to gain all the weight back if you're not careful. It took me a few hours to post this (I had to wallow in my own pity a bit first) but the fact of the matter is, this is entirely in my own hands and I have the power to change this. So I will. It's as simple as that.

So incredibly true! I'm glad things went well overall with the doctor. It's interesting what you said about the Vitamin D and hypothyroidism. I've never been told that and I don't think I've been tested for it in the last 10 years that I've been on Synthroid either! However, I was told to start taking B12 supplements at my physical last week, apparently it was the contributing factor to my constant fatigue.
Hello folks! I went to visit my folks over the long weekend and was away from my scale. It was probably a good thing. Anyway I'll be back with some personal greetings over over my lunch hour but for now I just wanted drop in quick to say (clearing my throat) ...
