Back up to 178. I know some of it's water weight, but also some of it is irresponsible binging. I'll have to work and pay attention to get it dropping again.

My original goal at the beginning of September was to drop 10 LBS by October 1st so I hope that I am posting in this thread in a week and a half that I am OUT of the 170s, but not sure I can lose 4-5 more lbs in that time!!!

I weighed in at 174.8 today so I am getting very close! I can almost see those 160s!!!! It's going to feel so good to post that mini-goal in here!

Good luck to everyone else! We can do this!!

I'm also aiming to be out of the 170's by the end of the month. I'm at 171.8 right now.

The 170's are truly breaking my fricking heart. I have bounced between 175.4 and 176.6 for 2 weeks now. I'm pretty sick of it and can't wait to be rid of this damn decade!

:wave:

I weighed-in at 179lbs yesterday. I'm really excited because I just have 4lbs to lose to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight and my lowest adult weight so the 170's are something I've looked forward to a lot!

You just described my last week and half - exactly the same. Hang in there, you WILL pass this hump. I finally weighed in at 174.8 this morning - I'm hoping after the TONS of water I chugged today I'll have secured a spot in at least a low 174. God willing.

Definitely hang in there - that scale will move soon! :hug:

Wooohooo, down from 174.8 to 174.4 today! Maybe I WILL get out of the 170s before September ends?? Might be crazy wishful thinking with a week left but I'm going to try my hardest!

Happy Friday to everyone! Lets keep going!

178lbs today! Down another pounds! :D

My hope is to get to 80kg (176lbs) by the end of Sept. I'm hoping it's not just wishful thinking too. ;)

Back up to 176.2 today, how fantastic .... not :( .... 174.4 has been my low so far in this journey - maybe it was only because I drank a gallon of water that day?? Plan on drinking a ton more water today to flush out the sodium from this weekend. I guess I won't be hitting my goal of 10 lbs lost by Oct 1st and getting OUT of the 170's .... I'm still really proud of my success so far, I might be losing inches and not lbs (I never took measurements though, maybe I should?) ... but I HATE 176 and I don't want to see it AGAIN.

AHHH ..... How is everyone else doing?? :dizzy:

I weighed in this weekend at 174.5 and am 174.0 this morning. I am cutting down my calories but I'm also working out every day and that includes 4 days per week running 3 miles and walking an additional 3.5, so I'm not sure that's the right approach. If only my body came with a "how-to" manual!!

Down to 175.2 today - wish it was 174.4 like I was last week, but I'll get there - just might not get out before October 1st. Oh well, at least I'm at the half way point of the 170s, just NEED to push past the 175 threshold.

Congrats Cherrypie - about the same height & weight as me right now - we WILL get out of the 170s soon!!!

The 170's are sticking around here, too. I was at 171.8 for 3 days, skipped one weigh-in day, then up to 173 for the past 3 days. I will be at normal weight at 169, and at 162 I'll be at a 100lb lost since recommitting in March. I want those 2 goals so bad! I'm hoping that my body is just holding water as it usually does mid-cycle, ovulation time, and that I see a loss in the coming days.

Stay strong, everyone!

You will reach your goal soon Beck!! Hang in there! Just keep fighting - the pay off will be SO sweet!!!

I'm back to 174.4 today! Yay! Now hopefully it goes DOWN tomorrow so I don't relive last week and watch it go up into the 176's. NEED TO SEE 173!!!

Woooo! Down to 173 today! Never thought I'd see that number. I realize the scale could still fluctuate up a little but I pray I am down seeing 176/175!

Hope everyone else is seeing progress towards those 160s!

Holy crap, down from 173 yesterday to 172.2 today. SO CLOSE! Gotta keep pushing and being healthy like never before, I am going to make it the 160s so soon!
