Weighed in at 179.5 today so I decided to move to this thread
Hopefully I will be staying down in the 170s for the next couple days till my official weigh in!
Just wanted to add something else hah...I'm starting to feel really good about my food decisions. For the longest time I would be scared to eat anything just for the fear it might make me gain weight--now I feel pretty confident that I'm on the right track to weight loss...I can't believe it took me 22 pounds to realize this lol. Congrats on all your hard work guys!
Hi guys! I've been missing from the boards for a while, and last time I was here, I was in the 160s, but I got a bit lost for a few months, and I've gained back about 6 pounds, putting me right around 171 (not sure exactly because I've been living in France - - eating too many croissants - - and the scale is in Kilos). Since I've kind of plateaued at this weight, I thought I'd join this thread for some motivation to get back to the 160s before summer!
Happy to be here with you girls!

Jessica88- yay jessica I'm so glad you're here!!! We were in the 180s together, now we're in the 170s together, let's get to the 160s together!!!
Katieee - ahhh WOOOO!! you go girl!! we'll miss you & see you soon!
okay. you've got to be freaking kidding me. 179.0 this morning... again.
175! Just Sunday I was 183 and I'm already halfway through the 70's. I do know that easy go, easy come so I have to be very careful not to cheat even the least bit, which is going to be hard seeing as I'll be going out of town for a funeral this weekend. And visiting my bf who always LOVES to feed me crap.
why am I struggling so much...i'm going to be back in the 180's if I'm not careful. anyone got any tips? - its mainly at work when I go wrong- colleagues bringing biscuits and cakes it etc :-(

Pure and simple, be a big girl and tell yourself no. Those aren't going to be the last treats in the world. You decide to wake up every morning, shower, put your clothes on, and go to work. You decide to actually do your work when you get there. Not eating junk is just another decision you've proven that you're capable to make. I posted this quote on my fridge "Cheat today, cheat tomorrow and this time next year you'll be the same size"
You could even bring in alternatives that you pull out specifically for those times at work. These are all tasty low calorie alternatives.
Well Ladies-
I wish you the best over the weekend. I am heading out of town. On my scale, my weight is 175.8. Hopefully it will be around there when I get back. I just ate a piece of pizza-and I am ok of that and maybe a bit proud-I ate 1 piece of pizza not 3 or 4, but 1. Also, it has been awhile since I have had any and there isn't much food in the house-so it was quick and easy and delicious. I timed it so I am going to work out now. The pizza was my "bad" and for my "good" thing today...I got a referral and made an appoitment with a dietician for Tuesday. Anyone seen a dietician-any comments/feedback? Have a great weekend everyone!
CarbsAreEvil and Chipmunk Cheeks - thank you so much for you words. Guess what? today at work ------i was completely in control! and feel so proud of myself. when everyone was tucking into the chocolate biscuits, I had my weight watchers ones; which are pre packed in 2's (so handy) and are 101 cals for both.
thankyou again
