Jmko - Kids involved or is it just you and him? Maybe try a romantic surprise dinner? I don't know I don't know how marriage works I can't even keep a functional normal relationship going if my life depended on it. haha
Lupo - Keep positive and things will start changing all around you.
Ishisnow - Congrats on pushing to 5 mins! Next time try for 6!

I can finally say I'm down to the last 15 pounds! I've hit the 155 mark that I wanted to hit for V-day last month, this morning! I'm excited! I'm not changing my ticker tho until I can keep 155 for a good solid week! Seems like forever I've been stuck at only losing 20 pounds, now I'm down to 25 pounds! YAY ME!
So it finally "moved" thank goodness. Weighed in at 204.0 yesterday, and I still haven't eaten anything today. After I drop my friend's boyfriend off at work I'm going to go home and weigh and hopefully eat something. Then I think I will go to my local goodwill and see if I can find some jeans in a size 16 that aren't too terrible. My 18s are getting too big on me, I'm getting the saggy *** thing going on, and I hope I can find some khaki pants there. Mostly I just want goal jeans, since I gave my last pair away to a friend.
Laney: YAY for the break with your weight! Good luck with pants shopping!
MiZ: Congrats hitting 155 & being down to your last 15 pounds!
Lupo: Good luck with the test and congrats on finding an internship!
Hey everyone! How's Thursday going for everyone? Mine is good right now. I got a job interview and I'm pretty excited about it! I'm ready to bring some more money into the house, plus I need some money to get me some new clothes! All mine is getting big! Tomorrow I have ANOTHERRR test ..one that i have been prepping for the past 3 weeks. So I hope I do well.
As for my weight this morning it was down 133.8! I was happy about that all considering yesterday it was 135.6 but I' know its kind of a fluke considering I ate dinner about an hour early than I usually do. But hopefully Ill see it again tomorrow. Who knows!
Laneyy Congrats on being able to fit into 16s. I bet you'll be out of them in no time.
MiZ YAY you met one of your mini goals!!! I can't wait until I'm 155.
jmko Have you guys been married long? I'm sorry things aren't going well. Maybe try to talk to him again and really emphasize how unhappy you are?
Well I did alright on my test. I got an 85% At least I didn't fail. But I have an interview for an internship on Tuesday!!! I'm so relieved because I've been searching for a while and not finding anything. The woman I talked to on the phone who would be my supervisor seemed really nice too. Gah! I'm very happy about this.
Ah... I'm back to 3FC... posting here now because I just guess I need some encouragement. I was an active member here and doing great for a long while, and still continuing to slowly lose the weight until about 3 months ago. Then I got pregnant, have been sick, have had no energy, etc.
I'm obviously not trying to lose weight at the moment, but I'm also trying to keep from gaining too much during my pregnancy. The first 3 months were pretty bad as far as feeling absolutely wretched, but I think it's getting better. I can now eat more properly, and get through the day without feeling like I need a nap every other hour. I need some kicks and motivation to be eating healthy and getting my daily exercise in. So maybe coming back here will keep me motivated if it doesn't depress me that I can't continue my weightloss for the moment!
Everlasting Congrats and welcome back! It's totally possible to exercise all throughout pregnancy if you are safe about it. I know a woman who kept exercising through her entire pregnancy, even on the day she gave birth! She bounced back to her post pregnancy body really fast too.
Just a quick "I'm not dead" - I am gaining and eating and definitely terrified to weigh. Shame on me for getting so thrown off by a simple glitch in my routine! The voice in my head that is screaming "I DON'T CARE I DON'T CARE" needs to be silenced. But my mom and I are having a nice time. Tonight we are going to another town to see my boyfriend's band play a show, and then I have to go to work during the day next week which means more routine and maybe getting rid of some of this horrible gain.
lupo - I don't fit in them yet, I was going to buy a pair as "goal pants" since I gave my last pair away. Actually, I could just ask my friend when she gets off the phone to find the pants and let me see if I can fit in them.
krampy - yay for not being dead! Also, it's only a minor setback, it's not going to derail you completely.

So we are all still sharing 1 car. Which is awesome 'cause I get to stay over at my friend's house for the time being. It's like a mini vacation. I also washed my car today, which was nice. Not that it matters 'cause I'm living on a dirt road for the time being. Not much else to update on... other than next week is my last week at my car dealership, and I'm also working 28 hours at the other job since the manager of my department is leaving for Manhattan at the end of this week. It's definitely going to be interesting working 50 hours, still sharing my car, and going to school.
Hi ladies, I read but not really up for personal's right now. I just stopped by to say hi and give a quick up date. I'm still at 155! Yes! I'm happy about that.
Have a good weekend ladies i'll see you all monday!
miz No kids, thank god. Not thank god, no kids, but thank god like, if I had kids this would just be way more complicated. Or maybe not. If I had kids I think I'd try harder to make it work. I'm totally not the romantic mushy type. *sigh* Congrats on being 155!
laneyy I just bought all new pants and they already have saggy a**. I even got my old ones taken in and already they have it too. Don't you hate that? It makes you look like you don't have a butt.
JL Congrats on the interview and the weight loss!!
lupos we've been married since may. I hate to say it but whenever I talk to him I feel like he doesn't listen. Or remember. He's not the brightest crayon in the box. Whenever I bring stuff like this up, he just shuts down. That's why we went to therapy. Which also didn't help. I'm feeling kind of stuck.
Ever Congrats on your baby!
krampus Just remember to eat healthy later!
Okay I'm feeling really stuck. DH and I got into a minor fight last night - I was working really late and he said he was going out with friends and would be home before 9. I called at 10 to let him know I'd be done soon and he said he was still out. It's not like I have a problem with him going out, it's more that I'm the type of person that if you tell you're going to do something, I expect you to follow through and do it! He always does this. Somehow it turned into him getting upset that I wasn't letting him go out with his friends. Which is stupid, because that's not even why I was upset. Anyway, long story short I came home and his phone, keys, and wedding ring were sitting on the table and he was gone. I'm not sure if he's just being a drama-queen and trying to make some sort of point or if he's really gone. Then again, all his stuff is still in our apartment. Ugh, this is just exhausting me.
This is like the 400th time I've introduced myself in this general area! I keep popping into threads
Just wanted to stop by here too so I can come in and chat with you all!
The simple: Jamie, 26 (27 on 4/17... 27 seems scary! lol), in Virginia... great boyfriend, three cute kids (two his, one mine... but together they're ours ... have PCOS and insulin resistance. On 2/21 was at my highest of 211, now at 202 (YAY!)... no real goal in mind. I put 140 on my ticker but really, I'll stop when I feel good! I'm a stay at home mom, finding myself pretty bored during the day when the baby is sleeping so don't mind if I post a lot during those hours lol
jmko- I am so sorry to hear about what happened with you and your DH. I was married to someone to did that to me... almost daily, actually. It's such a bad feeling, and I'm sorry he's doing that to you. Even if he's just being a drama queen, it's not right. My ex used to take his ring off or threaten to divorce me over the smallest arguments-- finally I told him enough was enough, and we did split up. I hope you guys are able to straighten things out!! Good luck!
Checking in, still 140.0 I am learning that I can maintain at this weight, which is good, but can't stem the hunger enough to stay on plan. I think I may have to re-consider my daily calories and commit to the gym. I can't eat more and lose without getting the exercise, and I miss the exercise too. Good news is only five more weeks on graveyard shift and I should be moving to day shift.
I am sorry to be out of the loop on personals, I've been so bad about not logging in on my weekend, which is mid week for y'all but at least am having fun.
EDIT: MiZ congrats on 155!

I have a second interview at the same place I interviewed for on Friday...it's on Wednesday. I am nervous as I've never experienced a second interview before and I'm scared it's going to be even more intense than the first! I have no idea what it could even entail - I already met and spoke to the owner/general manager of the business and it's a small business...so yeah, I'm freaked.
I also just found out that as well as my 5 hour shift on Sundays, I'm having another 2 hours taken off me on a Monday morning here at my current job. That's a cut from 30 hours a week to 23 - not ideal at all. So I just have my fingers crossed that something works out for me soon.
I finally saw 62kg / 136.6 pounds this morning. FINALLY. Whether or not it sticks is a whole other story...
Hey everyone just checking in. Test went well today. I go back Monday for my 3rd interview..for some reason I have to be interviewed by every manager in the store I guess..Oh well! 133 this morning...hoping the 120s is in my future soon. Worked out for about 30 minutes today...ready for shower & bed! Night ladies!
Hello all! I'm sitting at 120 and I am hoping to see 119 on the scale on Monday morning. I've been eating healthy but I'm still not exercising. I really need to get on it if I want to make any progress.
I can't wait until I'm 155.
