193.6 this morning but I haven't seen that low yet so afraid it's going to pop back up... I really can't imagine being 180 something! Too crazy! Have upped my exercise and am focused on that it's the last 1/4 of the way for me - hard when everyone comments on what I've lost so far and all I'm focused on is that last 44 lbs!!

Congratulations! I'm at 193.4 right now & know what you mean - I haven't seen the 180s in a long time & it seems impossible that I actually might fairly soon. But seriously, good for you for getting to this point! You'll be in the 180s in absolutely no time. Keep me updated on how it's going! :)

Keep going everyone!! I just weighed in at 189.6!! AND that's after eating breakfast and lunch today! Whoop whoop!! Hope it sticks...this is probably the first time I've been in the 180's since before I gained all of my Hurricane Katrina weight. Wooo!

OMG yay!! That's incredibly exciting, and like you said, you probably weigh even less than that considering it was after you ate. So proud of you! You'll have to leave this thread soon. ;)

On my scale at home this morning I weighed 192.2 & was super excited. However, I then had to go to the doctor & weighed 198.0 on their scale. However, I had JUST eaten a fairly large breakfast, I was wearing a heavy sweatshirt, jeans, and new workout sneakers, and my hair was wet from showering. Any chance that can make up the 5.8lb difference, or do you think my scale at home is just off? Really discouraged me to think I'm actually not as low as I thought I was, but I just keep telling myself that as long as the scale I have is going DOWN I am losing weight.

Good luck to everyone! :D

I've been bouncing between 190.5 and 188 on the gym scale..so thats with clothes on! I'm hoping when I weigh in tomorrow it settles on 189! :)

ak812 - I know! Today might be my last day in this thread... what to do! Well, I'll still come to check up on all of you ;) Also, I PERSONALLY think that all of those circumstances could lead to the extra 5+ pounds. I'd hate to weigh myself with any clothes on now! The one day I stepped on the scale with my bulky sweatshirt I thought I was going to die (until I realized, that is!) Regardless, though, it's not really about the number as much as it's about what you've lost and what you've gained out of that loss...so even in the off-chance that your scale is off at home, that won't take away everything you've done!!

I weighed in at 188.8 today! I think I might officially be out (or at least here's to hoping!) Thank you all for the support and I hope you make it out of this dastardly decade soon :D

Official weigh in : 194.2. I am very happy that I won't be here for much longer. So many restarts, but I am finally where I want to be.:carrot:

chel3fsea - YAY! Good for you, I'm so happy for you. :) Sad you won't be hanging out at this thread anymore, but I will hopefully see you in another 180s thread very soon. Weighed in this morning at 191.6 but it's TOM so hopefully by the end of this week I will be officially out of the 190s!! Thanks for the advice/support about the weight discrepancy I saw at doctor vs. home. You're totally right, it's not about the #, it's about the fact that it's going down and I am getting healthier. :) Again, a BIG congrats to you, dear.

GymRat18 - Keep going, you're almost there! You will be seeing the tail end of the 190s before you know it.

penguin - Did you get settled at 189? Let me know! Wishing you lots of luck, you are SO close! :D

hey people, i've started back up again pretty seriously. it is time to see 18- on scale.

Weighed in at 190.5 today!!!!! Can't wait until I see 189!!!:)

It is nice to see lots of people having success. Ever since TOM started I've been way up (198 on Monday! I nearly cried.) But it's slowly going down again, and I'm hoping tomorrow morning I'll be back to 193. There's still a week of April left, so I will get as close as I can to my goal of seeing the 180s by May.

aka8941 - Good for you! Keep that positive and you will see the '18-' on the scale in NO TIME. Hope you're doing well!

hhm6 - You are SO close! Congratulations - I bet by the time you read this you will have already left the 190s. :)

thistoo - Don't you just hate how TOM screws with the scale so much? I'm right there with you - I was down to 191.2 and have been just STUCK at 192 for several days even though TOM is nearing an end. How long does it usually take after yours is over before you see a down swing on the scale? I'm trying to get to the 180s before May, too ... I know we both can make it there! :D

Thistoo--I know exactly what you mean!! I'm back at 193 today because of it! GAH!!

aK812--Thanks!! Unfortunately I might have to wait a few more days! :(

hhm6 - Hope you're doing well & have made it out of these darn 190s.

I'm down to 191.0 today & hoping against hope to at least see 190.something on the scale tomorrow morning - have not seen that low yet and am immensely looking forward to it.

How's everyone else doing??

Generally my weight starts inching down toward the last couple days of TOM, then a day or two after it's finally over I see a drop of a pound or two. So far that has not happened this month! In fact, I'm up a pound this morning. 'Frustrated' doesn't really begin to describe it. There's not much I can do about it, though, other than sticking with my plan and carrying on.

We'll get to the 180s eventually! You're for sure going to beat me. :D Congratulations on the 191!
