Hello everyone! I am back for a much needed kick in the rump to get my bootie back in gear and back in shape! Over the last ten years I have gone from a very fit, very active healthy 145150 to a not so fit and not as active unhealthy 185, then last year when I realized this I started moving a bunch more and watching what I ate. Got down to 165ish and plateaued for what seemed like forever. Then I went off of the birth control that I had been on for years, thought I should lose some lbs for that in itself and instead gained ten pounds in less than a month. So now I am hovering at 175-176 and have GOT to get rid of this! I want to be around the 150 mark again.
So....here I am!
Good morning. Well at 5 am I weighed 173..but at 7 I weighed 172. I'll take the 7 o'clock weight!
Does anyone have this problem? My dear husband who has been very supportive, made his famous asian flanks steak last night, I told him I was not going to have any as the marinade had sugar. He then proceeded to tell me that the sugar was dispersed and would not amount to anything.
The question is why do people feel the need for you to share their food? It must be some way of feeling closer if you eat the same thing? I have a good friend who also loves to order the same thing and then split it.
Any ideas? Anyway..it will always be there as people always seem to urge food on you.
Maile - everyone weighs in on whatever day they want - I happen to weigh in on Wednesday. You must have read my post. Since I only acknowledge what I weigh on Wednesday, I can't (in my mind) join in here until my weight is below 180 on an official weigh in day. That's just me. I'm stuck at 180.0 - 180.2 anyway!
Hi Ladies..I am excited. I weighed 170. I am on the edge. However, I have just started a 5 day trip to Seattle. I am hoping to keep the 170...Hope everyone has a good week.
love2b150....thank you so much for the words of encouragement. I am definitely serious about getting back down to the 160's and am determined to get to 150 again. Anything below that is a godsend.
Maile.....yes! I too have that same problem. Not only does my bf cook the tastiest food (half the reason my weight has been a problem) but he also has no worry for healthy food or ingredients. He is the one that cooks most of the time, and I have a real hard time eating right like this. We have gotten to the point where we will cook meals together but seperate things. It actually works ok. What drives me nuts is that then I make sure to have leftovers for me for lunches, etc the next day or two but come home and he has eaten them!

Peaches, I am with you all the way. I can't remember seeing 150 ever on the scale I just know I went past it . and yes my doctors ideal weight for me of 136 will definitely be a godsend.
envelope thanks for asking I'm doing. I don't think what I'm doing is gonna get me any where close to any kind of goal. I keep going back and forth between the same numbers. The only good thing is so far I haven't gone higher than 174.2 since 7/12
My husband won't eat anything that I don't put on his plate (he won't go back and look for leftovers). My cousin and her husband were over two weeks ago and they were shocked to find out that if I don't fix his plate he would never eat a vegetable (shaking my head) so he doesn't touch anything in the fridge other than his soda and jelly to make himself a pb&j, he's a snacky junk food person
Lin come on in the waters fine, glad you're here
today I am at 172.2 ... yesterday was 171.4 so the zero has gone into hiding
Have had my daughters over here visiting from NY (I'm in Asheville, NC) and have the feeling I will be a few lbs heavier...One daughter leaves Friday and the other Wednesday, so I am planning on starting my work outs and getting back on track right then.
In the meantime I am trying with not much success to keep from losing it completely, but it's hard...
I will keep on coming to visit so I don't lose all my grip!
I am so ready to get some serious downward motion. I am at my monthly mini stall, but I know that it will be followed by a woosh. Isn't is strange how are cycle effects us all differently. Each lb I lose makes jogging that much easier, and each week jogging brings the scale lower...this is one cycle I am LOVING.
Claudia please don't lose your grip totally. You can do it and just think when your daughters leave you can get back into the swing of things Check in often
envelope I'm still wanting to jog (I have tried a couple of times on the treadmill). I don't remember if you recall me talking about it last year or not, I'm still procrastinating Glad you've found what works for you ... I'll get there
Hey new ladies!
I'm still around here, in the 170s but hopefully out soon enough. I'm 171 still and trying to handle my emotional issues. Things are lookin up I think, even if my weight hasn't changed much.
I have been good with the gym but not so good with food. I've been stress baking (In the past two weeks, I've baked cookies twice, an apple pie this past sunday and will bake a cake this friday). Right now, this is the best I can offer without putting more stress on me so I'll be stuck on this weight for a while.
The treadmill is being wonderful, I weighed in today at 171.6 wanna talk about shocked ... oh my goodness what a beaut 
together we will definitely get through this
