Congrats ERHR!

141.0!! im ALMOST THERE!!

Congrats on losing 30lbs!! Thats a life-changing accomplishment!! You should feel attractive! You ARE!! And you deserve to love the way you look right now. So happy for you!

Good morning ladies. Had yesterday off from work so I took advantage of it! Went to the gym to do a 50 min zumba-type class... then did my week 2 day 3 of the C25K which took me another 40 minutes... THEN came home to take the dog on a 2mile walk since the weather was decent. I wore my heartrate monitor and it said I burned 1023 calories!! I was hoping for a big drop today... got .4. I'll take it! I never really understand how my body works lol. I'm at 148.4 today.

I'm down to 151!!!!!

151!
 

Miz---

Congrats on getting to 151!!! :carrot:

Would any of you other shorties like to share your measurements? I read through the thread on that in the feathers forum but I am not quite a feather and nowhere near in weight to the ones who shared so they are all a lot tinier than I am.

I took my first measurements 6 weeks ago and I have seen some of them move since then so that is very exciting! But I think my waist-to-hip ratio is always going to be pretty high. I'm rather busty but not really curvy in any other way.

Today's measurements and the change from 6 weeks ago (corresponding to 8 lbs lost):
neck: 12" (-0.25")
bust: 39" (no change)
chest: 32" (no change)
natural waist: 30.5" (-0.5")
waist, 0.5" above navel: 34.75 (-2") <- yay, this is the one corresponding to visceral fat which is REALLY what I want to reduce!
hips: 38.5" (-2.5")
upper arm: 11.25" (-1")
thigh, widest: 23.5" (-1.5")
calf, widest: 14.25" (-0.75")

I'm glad to see that I'm losing inches now that my weight loss has slowed some. Especially because the inches are coming off in places I really want them to - arms, waist, hips, thigh.

Finally weighed in at 159.8 this morning! After being in the 160s for too long (since the last week of January) I'm so happy to be in a new decade! Can't wait to lose with you girls :)

Welcome BarristerGirl and Happy Easter!

Ugh, Okay! I've been in the 150's since the end of February! I dunno if it's just me enjoying my new body so much or the nicer weather, or the move (we just moved) but I can't seem to get back on track! I still go to the gym 5-6x a week religiously, I can't miss it, I love it, but I just need to do somethign about my eating! I lose about 0.5 a week now! ITS RIDICULOUS!!!! Someone slap me!

ive been hanging at 141 for the past couple days and its driving me crazy! ive seen a 139 and a 140 each in the past 2 weeks but im still stuck at 141.
easter was kinda a killer with 2 easter dinners to attend but i think i did okay. I've fallen behind on my goals but my goal this week is to get out of the 140's once and for all!
anyway, this is just my little update. i hope everyone has had an amazing Easter. I'm going at this weight loss hard core tomorrow. 12 weeks til i get married :)

Morning ladies- I'm at 149.2 today and super excited. Hope everyone is doing well!

Great job sweetchicagogal...

I'll share my measurements ERHR... I really gotta re-check them... I measured them myself this last time and it was really tough! Here is what I think they are:

neck: 12" (-0.25")
bust: 37.5" (-1.5")
chest: 34"
waist (At my belly button - I never know where to meature my waist): 36' (no change)
hips: 40.5" (-.25")
upper arm: 12" (-1")
thigh, widest: 23.5" (-.5")

This last measurement time I really only lost big time inches in my chest. I lost about 5 lbs.

I weighed in at 149.2 today. Because of Easter. At work late tonight but still planning to do c25k week 3 day one tonight even if its super late! Going to NYC tomorrow for work and won't be home until Wed night really late.

Hmm so today i went to get a pair of jeans. Just one pair tho bcuz i dont want to waste to much $$ on clothes until i hit goal. I was kinda shocked how im still a size 9. I was pushing an 11 when i started and back a couple yrs ago when i was 132, which is only 9lbs away i was a size 3! i doubt i'm gunna jump 3 sizes in 11lbs when i only went down 1 size in 30lbs. I dont get it. Im hoping once i wear them for a lil they might loosen up and be to big but jeeez

hey ladies!
I've been MIA for a bit..but I'm back!!! Exams were stressing me out big time and I was just away with the family all weekend for Easter. so a Happy belated Easter to everyone!

I had some MAJOR NSVs this weekend: didn't eat any chocolate/candy or consume any alcohol all weekend long! The holidays are always a tough time for all, including me, and this was a big victory over here! I stayed completely on plan and my family was good enough to offer a variety of choices that adhere to my vegan diet; I ate great!!

I didn't have access to my scale for my regular WI on sunday, so I'm going to post tomorrow morning what my results are. I'm expecting a big whoosh, so here's to hoping for that!

Hope you all are doing well!
