I haven't been able to post in a while. My husband got really sick, then we wrecked our car ... sad, overwhelming times. However, I am proud to say I didn't fall off the wagon! I am currently 150.2! WOOHOO! I only have a hop skip and a jump to go before the 140's. It's super exciting.
Hey girls!
After a few very long months in the 160s, I weighed in at 157.2 this evening! Super excited to be joining you! I consider 150 my mini goal because that's how much I weighed at high school graduation! It's also super exciting to be 20 pounds away from my goal weight! I'm in heaven tonight
Echo, thanks for always being so supportive. You were right, I made it this week
Congrats, everyone! I'm still 155ish. The closer I get to goal, the slower I lose (though that's to be expected, right? )
But yesterday.. ugh. I KNOW better but.. I didn't eat very well yesterday. I was in a bad mood and for lunch I had a cheeseburger and cream of brocolli soup, and for dinner all I had was dessert food! 2 malasadas and a brownie and a piece of pie and lemon cake... O_O It was awful. There was no excuse for me eating that way, even if I was in a bad mood, so I'm very ashamed of myself. It flashed me back to the old days of being overweight and eating like that almost every day, and I almost wanted to cry.
So today I did better. I wanted a pumpkin smoothie this morning but I got a banana instead. I wanted nachos at lunch but I got yogurt, plain noodles with tofu, and vegetable soup instead. I wanted Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but I got corn flakes instead. And it actually tasted pretty good. Sometimes you just have to give your inner child a timeout.
I can't keep eating like that or I'll NEVER make it out of the 150's! I'm really hoping to make it to the 140's by the beginning of next semester... though it won't be easy.
Yeah, I hear that, Megwini... it seems like the closer you are to goal, the more damage that food indiscretions do to the scale. I'm also finding it's taking a LOT of willpower these days! Stuff I used to do without now seem harder to resist... wonder if it's like an inner saboteur, you know? I don't want to get 14 lbs away from goal and give up!
Kurri, your avator pictures just get CUTER and CUTER!!

woweeee skinnypants! you are rockin and rollin!! awesome!!
today i'm at 154.6lbs. i keep going up and down the 154s hehe need to break out of the 154 and into the 153s!
Thanks! The 154s did that to me, too... and if I remember correctly, so did the 164s! What is it about getting close to a new decade that the scale doesn't seem to like?
