I have been really down about being this high again, and just upset that I let myself go. However, joining these threads again, getting back to my old (good) habits,

LebenAlles, your attitude towards your aunt's visit is amazing!! You are rocking it, and your excitement towards the 220's is really rubbing off on me!

SeeMyFeet- what are liquid donuts?

Daimere- you are rocking it- good luck, those 14 pounds will fly off! I am excited to watch you get to your lowest weight ever!
Thought I'd start a new thread since we're past the 500 mark. This was the last post so I thought I'd bring it over here

Welcome akelly728!

Thanks for starting a new thread, PreciousMissy!

IanG - you'll be out of here before you know it!

I'm in at 236.8 today - I'd really like to get to 236 by my 'official' weigh in on Sunday - that'll be 40 pounds lost!

I'll join this thread even though I'm almost out. I saw a 219.8 this morning but I don't know if it will stick. I have a 5k tonight and tomorrow I'll be cheering on the marathon runners, I'm hoping it doesn't become a carb fest.

I'm really enjoying eating low carb. I can't believe how fast I'm losing this time around...not that I'm complaining.

IanG, that's awesome! I saw in another thread you accomplished your mini-goal of 225, so congratulations on that, too!

merilung, 40lb is a great accomplishment! I'll cross my fingers for Sunday!

Welcome Dichi!

Hey everyone! I'm a newbie to this site and this seems like an appropriate place for me to be. I'm currently at 231 (237 last week when I started my journey) so I hope to be here for only a little while but I'd love to meet you all while I'm here!

Does everyone find it helpful to have mini-goals? I don't have any so I'm curious if they work.

Welcome, Dani86! I do mini-goals, sort of. I usually participate in one of the challenges that runs every 6-8 weeks and it does help me stay on task - thinking about the next 101 pounds I want to lose is way more daunting than thinking about the next 20!

Had a pretty good weekend- still in this 230/220 club which is amazing! (Figured I might bounce back to the 240 club since I'm on the border). Went out of town for a friend's graduation and ate a little extra than I wanted, but I ran 2 miles on Saturday morning and 1.5 miles today. So far, I am down a pound compared to Friday!

merilung- congrats on the 40 lb loss!! Fantastic! I know that's great
