  • Rockin' it, fitwayoflife!
  • Just thought I'd peak in and say hi... I weighed in at 250.0 so I look forward to joining you officially next week!

    The 240's is an especially meaningful decade for me because during my last weight loss journey, I only made it to the 230's. So when I get through the 240's I know I'll feel like I'm back to where I was that last time and ready to make it all the way this time!
  • Broke through to 249 today! Nice to meet you all Hope I don't stay around too long though [no offense ]!
  • Hi chicks! Good to see you! Hopefully we'll all be in the 230s soon!
  • Hi everyone! I'm back again. In August 2011 I got down to 238.8, and from there I gained. I was 257 at the beginning of the year and as of this morning 245.4. I'm ready to put the 240s behind me for good! Keep up the good work ladies
  • Hi all. Glad to see the thread is still going. I gained some over the holidays and then lost some. I'm sitting at 246.6. I really hate this decade. I am forging ahead though. Since it was nice outside I got to take a walk.
  • im in here too.. bleh been in the 240s for longg time, can`t wait to finally be out..
  • Im having a bad a week...
    Im back up to 247. But not for long!!!!!
  • Hello :wave I would like to join in (not for too long I hope) As of this morning I am 245.2. I am preparing for that to go up because I nearing TTOM. This will be pretty important to get past as 242 was the lowest I have been in about 5 years. I weighed that at the beginning of 2011, while I was nursing my daughter. So, here is to us getting out of the 240's
  • The 240s have taken a long time for me too. Ah well, we'll get through it.

    smashley - Good job on getting down to 245! TOM gain is annoying. It's a good thing it's predictable and temporary!
  • Down 2lbs this week! 247. TOM is here. Oh boy!
  • Hi All,

    I made it this week! 247.6 today!

    Last week was a good one, but I still lost less than I have since I started. I guess this is when the "real" weight loss starts? The week before I did a similar eating plan and lost 4 lbs. This was my 5th week of losing weight.

    When I get to 240, husband and I are going skeet shooting and I'd LOVE to be 235 for a cruise next month with my family. We are leaving on March 16th, so it's little less than 7 weeks away. If I can lose 2 lbs a week, I can do it
  • Starting for the second time again today, and I'm at 244.4.... you guys are wonderful and inspirational, and I hope to see you in the 230's soon!!!
  • Finally broke through the plateau. I kept going up and down but as of this morning I am 245.6. I hope it keeps going DOWN, DOWN DOWN. I am so ready for it.
  • So I weigh myself daily, not to be obsessive, just to track the general trend of my weightloss, Holy TOM Batman!!! Yesterday morning I weighed 244.3, Today I weigh 246.8. TOM has officially arrived, so I will blame her My official weigh in day is Wednesday, so maybe I will have better news tomorrow.
