Just checking in on you guys. Come on Misti!! Keep up the good work! We're waiting for you on the next thread! LOTS of gals in that one. Prolific posters too!
I'm glad that I found these threads. I had been just in 1 other one--not too much action (although I have gotten to be internet friends with those gals--they are great--and have all met their goals!). It's nice to be in the forums where people are going through the same struggles at the same time as I am! Easy to relate to them. To me a size 18 is a beautiful thing! To someone in a size 6 it's like a nightmare! I need to be able to relate!
Thanks 2times! I am going crazy wanting to graduate to the next thread... in fact I have gone over there and read it all LOL. I can't believe it took me 11 days to lose this pound!!
I'm back - yahoo! After massively overeating on vacation, I weighed in at 249.4 this morning.
I wish I could figure out why I use vacations and special occasions as excuses to overeat. I went to bed half-sick every night I was away, but still thought of all the great things I was going to eat the next day. It got to the point that I was dreaming about coming home so I could eat and feel better. Why didn't I just eat sensibly then? I wish I knew.
Hi Brandnewday. Sorry about your messing up, but don't beat yourself up too badly! It is so easy to overeat on vacations. We will successfully makie it out of this thread! Just have to keep going!
I weighed in at 242 again this morning so will be content with that -- glad at least it did not go up. I want out of here sooooooooooooo badly LOL
Thanks, going2b! Have to admit, right now I don't feel I am ever going to make it... but I know I will. Just have to keep going when I am seeing very little results!
I just came hope from a yoga retreat that was really wonderful to hurricane sandy. I'm in NYC, lucky to have power, but I will tell you last night, seeing all of the water flowing on the streets was pretty scary!!
I'm 244.6 this morning. I'm a little concerned about all the water weight I gained on vacation, and a lot concerned that the "easy" loss is going to stop soon and I will be deep in the grind.
Misti, you almost have it licked! Keep up the good work!
BethC, I'm glad you are safe. The pictures do look really scary, and what a relief to have power!
^^ thank you!! It's going to be a long time until things are back to "normal" here.
What's frustrating me is that I came home from the retreat all focused and calm and now I'm back to where I was before I went. I have to work on this, stress is not a reason to eat!!
Well, here I am still here! There is absolutely NO reason I should not be losing since I am most definitely not overeating. Oh well... I just have to stick it out.
Hope to see ALL of us in the 230s thread soon. Eventually we will get there
I weighed 243.8 today, which means I have officially lost 10% of my body weight! I hear that even losing 10% is so good for you, and I do feel lots better than I used to. How is everyone else doing?
Can't wait to see you in the other thread.
. I've got no worries about Halloween tomorrow, so it looks like smooth sailing for a while!
