Im still here and still stuck at 175, Ive been working out but havent been on plan with my eating whatsoever, so Id rather be stuck than gain. I went grocery shopping today and got nothing but good healthy food, so I have no other choice than to eat right.
Hello All! I am new to this thread I have weighed in at 177lbs for two days now so I am taking it! I am so happy to be in this category the last time I was in the 170s was about 7 years ago. My goal to be 160lbs by Halloween is definitely out of the question but I am happy that I have stuck to the new lifestyle and it is working. I have never since being a kid been less than 175lbs heres to a new way of life and a much happier me! I read through all of your posts and you are all amazing women thanks for the inspiration!!
Hey PurdueGirl! Good idea stocking up on the healthy stuff.. I think we all need a break now and then, maybe we should call it "practicing maintenance".
elinor1 ~ welcome and congrats!
I put on a pair of pants I bought about 5 years ago for a trip (and they were tight when I got them) today. They went on, they fit properly. I wish I had somewhere nice to wear them before I get too small to wear them.
Kristi78 ~ sorry to hear about your stall, but I'm glad you see things moving again. I looked at my earlier posts and thought... yikes! That was a long time ago I joined this thread. (Hey I just looked at your location... we're not that far from each other)
Thanks! That stall was really frustrating. Now that I don't weigh as much the scale moves VERY slow. That's okay though. This is not a race and I am making changes for the rest of my life. Slow and steady!
Can I hang with y'all? As you can see, I am just barely in the 170's but I want out and fast!! Of course, it would probably help if I wouldn't drink so much beer...
Hey there asparagus! Of course you can hang here, and yes, beer will do it to you, especially if you hang on to carbs. Congrats on the weight you have lost so far!
btw ~ you have great taste in tickers
I'm teetering on the edge... somebody push me so I fall into the 160's!
So close JayLei. By Monday you will be there I am sure!
I am happy to now be in the mid-170's. I never feel like I am officially out of a weight decade until no matter what time I weigh myself, I am not in it. So I think I can now officially count myself out of the 180's so that is good. Hopefully, the 170's will be gone soon too.

asparagus ~ at 175 you can definitely say you are out of the 180's.
I used to sit on my scale reading for a few days worried it might not stick. I had a change of thinking about two weeks ago. The weight I am is the weight. Grab it, embrace it, tell myself it's it and it's only going down and deal with tiny fluctuations up by examining my food intake and exercise outtake. It's really helped, I've lost more in the past two weeks than I have in the [previous month.
And with that.... drum roll.... I'm at 169.3 this morning!!!!! I am no longer obese according to my wii !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
time to celebrate with a pitcher of unsweetened iced tea (was going to have that anyway) and maybe a short run. See you all in the 160's thread!
