It's official! I'm in! Weighed in at 188.2 lbs last night

I am super excited!!! I was in a big slump there for the last month and a half so my health coach recommend I try a "kick start" program.

I knew I was about half-way through my weight loss journey, so I am treating this as my fresh start to get to the finish line!! I really want to wear a bikini during our winter vacation to somewhere warm!!

The Kick Start worked -- it was only two days (Monday and Tuesday) and consisted of special juice, two servings protein, two servings fat, 5 servings of vegetables. Basically this made my cheese and crackers on Wednesday feel like a real treat!! This resulted in the weight loss, so now I feel back on track and determined to stay on program.

I've got a fitness exam next Tuesday -- so now I need to focus on passing that. Its crazy to think that only 3 months ago I could barely run for 30 seconds and now I can run 5 km in 35 min. (I know that is not the fastest time, but I am so happy that I can do it).

I'll try posting more now that I am back on track!!

Welcome looking4potogold!

I'm at 185 today which is progress and I'm pleased.
How is everyone else doing?

Hi Mozzy, Congrats Lookingforpotofgold.

I'm still hanging in at 185. Never in a million years thought I would have come this far so still finding it hard to believe it will continue. I live with the constant dread that 1 day its all just going to stop moving downwards. Until then... even if its at a snails pace and going downwards I shall continue

Yay! Weighed in at 187.6 (down 0.6) - every bit counts!

I made some amazing turkey meatballs last night!
I stuff my meatballs with 1/4 packet of the light laughing cow cheese (a soft white cheese) and bake it in the oven and ate them plain - I don't think I'll ever go back to beef meatballs again - the turkey keeps the cheese inside, unlike beef meatballs. Anyways ... I like to cook if you haven't noticed ... I like this diet because it is forcing me to try new recipes or modify old favorites.

Anyways, plan today is to go for a run in the a.m. And maybe some golf this afternoon! Oh - and I made my favorite protein shake to date : 200 ml milk, 4 ice cubes, I scoop vanilla protein powder, 1/2 banana , 1/2 c blueberries!! Going to make one right now

Hope everyone has a good weekend!!

[love2b150]

Where did everyone go????

I've been in and out of the 180's hoping with my new eating plan I can get to 185 and then out of the 180's I have yet to get lower than 187

Wishing you all well

Morning all. Feeling extremely discouraged today I was back up to 188 earlier in the week.
Its just one of those Bllaaahh days. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

[Mozzy]

I'm up to 188 today... I'm pouting!

[nlauah]

Hey.... I am new here and I am currently at 188.9... Just moved to the 180s from the 190s... But all geared to move out of the 180 as well may be 4 weeks from now.....

[nlauah]

Hey Mozzy... Happened to me sometimes where at certain weights I keep oscillating up and down.. One clean day can make things move downward in my experience... Hope it does for you as well!

P.S : Just saw that we are pretty much the same height, weigh around the same and currently and have similar goal weights as well.... yaaay!!!!

Hi all!

I don't update my ticker until I'm at a weight about 3 days.

Having said that, I was 180 even this morning!!!

That's exactly 50 lbs. That's halfway. I'm so impressed with myself. (I know that's pretty narcissistic but I am!

[Mozzy]

Yay Beth!!!! You go Girl!

Nlauah-- welcome and good luck on your journey!!

[love2b150]

Mozzy I have lost and gained the same 3-4lbs over and over. Today's weigh in was 187. I've taken on a new eating plan hoping to kick myself into the correct gear. You keep on keeping on

niauah to 3FC, the new decade and the thread . I'd love to be out of here in 4 weeks also What plan are you following?

Beth, You ... you'll be in the new decade soon

Hello

My last post here was in July and guess what? I am still in the 180s. I gained some in August (holidays), lost it and here I am again to lose these stubborn 6 pounds to see 179 for the first time since 2002.
