You go Diva! I'm right there with you, I hope we aren't in the 300's for very much longer!!

Hey girls still here with you I know I hang out in the other thread, I'm a slow loser and I started to feel like I kept making friends here and then they kept moving on. :) So I just hopped threads only because this one was quiet otherwise I'd keep up with both. Not sure if anyone is still left here with me. :) I'm slowly struggling to get rid of the last 10 lbs to get into two-town. I can feel it almost there. Within reach but yet so far. :) I know that after I get there there is a whole nother journey to one-derland and then on to goal weight (healthy BMI) so as tempting as it is to crash diet away the last 10lbs I won't do it.

I haven't been posting on this thread, just because I forgot about it.

I am officially out of the 300's as of today! Yay!

silent - You have lost 41 pounds, that is amazing. Please don't try to 'hurry' those last 10 pounds. We all face such a large amount to lose, it's hard to remember that persistance is better for our long term success.

Yes, I would like to be magically down 100 pounds. But, I know that's not going to happen. *sigh*

So proud of you Rachael!

Well I reached a Milestone this week and entered a new Century, I am OUT OF the 300's after being there for 20+ years. As of Wednesday I am at 297lbs, I have loss 92lbs in 26 weeks. I feel great, starting to notice things I am doing now that I would not even think about before. I still have 100 left to go but I am taking it one lb at a time and one day at a time until I get there. No stopping me now :)

wuv2bluved that is amazing! congrats on your successes :)

rachael congrats on you too!

303 this AM I think I am dehydrated though I had afew too many drinks last night.

That's not a bad thing , I remember when 318 was my "low" Now (i hope) I wouldn't see that even on a "high weight" day. I just qualify it to myself because tomorrow after I've had some coffee today, and rehydrated my poor body I don't want to be upset that I see a "gain".

I think I will do some housework today not exactly cardio but it needs to be done if I convince myself it will help me burn calories i'm more likely to do it.

Still in the 303 zone which is good I haven't bee the strictest and this weekend is a whole lotta halloween celebrations nad the weekend after that I'm going on a mini-vacation. So we'll see I'll be happy to stay in the 303's but I might get out of the 300's by the end of november ... I surely hopeso far away from my "summer" goal but ah well at least I'll make it there eventually. 4lbs in 4 weeks even with a mini vacay... I can do it!

Still in the 303 zone I guess as long as I don't go up thats okay. I really would love to start seeing some #'s closer to 300 closest so far is 302.8....

And I am just REALLY hungry the past few days so I am eating to maintenance calories. Trying to stick to healthy foods avoid the junk. monday is going to be hard though.

I'm kind of worried about how I stay on plan for the weekend too. My son's birthday party is tomorrow. Then football Sunday. Then Halloween Monday. EEK! It will be a challenge, but then this whole plan is different, change is hard. We can do this.
:D

Wondering if you've tried "My Plate". I'm having real success with it. It is an online calorie counter that is so easy to use! It is through Livestrong.com.
It's free, so it's totally worth the try.

Ahhhh, I've been definitely working to begin my weight with a 2 for awhile now, and I'm soooo close.

Only ONE... yes ONE lb to go!!! I'm so excited for that 2XX number I could scream!

Silent I am still here veen though I am under 300 now.... I come to root everyone else on.... So here is what I hae to say you can do it girl and when it does come off you will feel so accomplished.

Ah! today I was at 300.0! I think my scale is teasing me! lol

Where is everyone? Lol
Well, this past week was TTOM- so I didn't do the daily weighing I usually do because it frustrates me.
So I weighed today, and I was at 296.0! Wow, what a whoosh! I hope that's a permanent change!

Congratulations, Amber! That is so amazing :D
