Congrats EsperanzaBella for making it out of the 150s!!!! :carrot::carrot::carrot:

Congrats to 170starting for the big loss!! Some of it probably was water weight, but that counts too!! :D

Welcome Trish13! Good luck to you!!

Kurri, don't beat yourself up! We went dress shopping this past weekend. I initially picked out size 10s to try on...I wear size 8 jeans so I thought a 10 would be just fine. That didn't work out too well for me lol. I couldn't get any of them zipped all the way. So I ended up having to buy a 12. Dresses like that always run small. I bet you looked great in it...but your disappointment in the size probably warped the way you saw yourself in it. Don't get discouraged..you still have plenty of time to lose some more weight! And plenty of time to find a date....but really, I wouldn't even worry about a date--especially since you're IN the wedding. If you had a date..especially someone who didn't know anybody, he would probably feel out of place because you would be with the wedding party for a big part of the time. He would be sitting through the entire wedding by himself....and at the reception you would be sitting with the rest of the wedding party at least through dinner/toasts/etc....so he would be by himself through that. So IMO I don't even think you should bother getting a date! Just find a cute guy AT the wedding ;)

Sounds like everyone is doing well :)

I had a slow week last week...like .3lbs lost, lol. I buckled down on plan this week, but my best friend's bday dinner was at a pizza joint last night. I indulged a bit, but nothing out of control. I didn't feel guilty, but I was kind of worried about my weigh in this morning. Not too bad...lost 1.5lbs! I'll take it, haha, especially the morning after a pizza dinner!

I'm quite comfortable in the mid 150's, really. I'm ready to get out of 'em, but not in a huge hurry. I think I'm going to get down to 145, let my body settle, even if that means getting back to 150-ish and then just maintain for a few weeks or months. That will be the lightest I've been since before highschool, so I'll let my body readjust. Then I'll see about losing more or not.

AmbaDawn, thanks so much! I am still at 149 today---can't wait to see 148 finally! LOL. Hopefully you'll be joining me soon! :)

:D Glad to see everyone making such good progress.

I weighed in at 148.5 for 2 days straight now so I think it's time for me to move to a new decade. Hope to see everyone there with me soon!

Whoo-hoo, I'm so excited! I weighed in at 149.2 today!!!!! I've never yet had a gain since I started so I hope this is a done deal. See you gus in the 140s thread VERY soon!

:carrot:
:carrot:
:carrot: Wow, It seems like a lot of people are leaving to go to the 140's. Congratulations to ALL of you. :hug: Hopefully, I will see you there soon. I weighed in at 150.4 today. Keep up the good work everyone. SO PROUD OF ALL OF YOU. :dust:

Hi everyone I weighed in today at 158.2 so I'm super excited to be joining this thread. Of course I've already got my eyes set on 149.9 which means I'll be out of the overweight category for good!!

Congrats to everyone that just made it to the 140's! Hopefully I'll be joining you guys soon enough!

Well, after disappearing from semi-lurkdom over Christmas and gaining back a big chunk of the weight I had lost... I'm back down to 158--where I was before I left! So this time I'm really going for it, so that I can make my way down to the 140s. Farewell, fast food!

Congrats to all of those who made it!

It's been so long since I posted in this thread, I in fact posted in the previous thread (6/16/2009) but I have FINALLY broken out of the 150's! I flirted with 149 for a while but never really seriously but today I am confident that I am now 149.2

AND I am no longer considered overweight by the BMI (24.8)

AND it's my birthday!

OMG this is like such a great b-day gift. I started crying when I updated my ticker and saw the change in BMI

Thank you all for you constant energy and support!

Tarisaande, Happy Belated Birthday and congratulations!!! What a success and a special day to achieve it. Maybe I should aim to reach my goal by my birthday in June!

Everyone else is has been very quiet lately! What's going on, girlies?

Another week without a gain or loss. I long for the days it came easily. I've been in the 150s before and they quickly turned into the 180s. I'm not far enough away to be comfortable and I'm not happy yet.

Hey girlies...

after 7 days of weighing in at 150, I finally stepped on the scale this morning and saw148.8. I got on and off a couple times, and it said the same thing. I hope I can move to the 140's... I am going to wait a few days to make it official though. Thank you to all for your support through the 150's.:hug:

170starting: awesome!!! I'll see you in the 140's thread in a few weeks, haha

I weighed in at 154.8. I'm chugging through the 150's faster than I thought. A couple more weeks, I bet, and I'll be pretty close to goal!

I saw 153.6 this morning! That's what I weighed in November before I chucked my healthy eating habits out the window in favour of a month off at Christmas to which I gained about 3 pounds (I wasn't *that* bad but bad enough). It was about four hours earlier than I usually weigh so going to check tomorrow but won't update my ticker until next week probably.

Best of luck to you all this weekend!

Hi, I'm pretty new here :wave:

I hope it's not too late to join. I weighed in at 153.2 at my WW meeting last night. Since it was my day 2 of TOM I'm hopeful for a big loss at next week's weigh in.

Good luck everyone :carrot:

EDIT- how do I update my tracker?

TinasGoal, you should be able to do it by going into your user control panel (CP) on the boards and using the Update Signature (or Edit Signature?) section.

Okay, so I changed my ticker because I saw 153.6 again this morning... I'm not sure I can reach 151 in two weeks since I'm losing so slowly but I will give it a shot!
