Hi everyone
l'll kick off March 1st.
Unfortunately I have made very little progress, I have only lost 4 lbs. in February and am no closer to getting into my slacks now than I was on February 1st.
The last month has been a bit of a problem healthwise, but I am getting better now, so I can start getting some exercize which will help improve things.
Sorry to start things on a not so good note, but I'll plug away at things in March and hope to have better news on April 1st.
Meanwhile I am looking forwards to seeing how you all are doing!!!
:cheer:YOU GO, GIRLS:cheer:

Happy March 1st. It's our first (and likely our last) snowfall of the year here in Atlanta. It is so beautiful.

Well, unfortunately my pants still don't fit but I am very close. WaaH! It's my own fault. I had been steadily losing weight since November but in the last two weeks I got really lazy about what I was eating. I do this everytime I hit a certain weight. Anyway, I just have to get tough with myself. I swear by April 1st I will be able to wear those jeans!!!!

way2fluffy 03-01-2009 02:03 PM

Well, I have to look at the big picture. From Jan. until now the 'bagel top' has diminished to a 'muffin top' and I can wear the stretch jeans <---even out in public!:carrot:
Feb. has been a slow losing month, but weight that comes off slowly stays off right? I'm still committed to this WOE, no choice cause the weight is going down not up.
I sure would like to report 'onederland' by April for sure! A non-muffin top for spring will be great as well.
Bravo! So far nobody has to buy a bigger pants size!!!
How's everybody else doing?

Hi Everyone,

I lost about 5 lbs in February. The pants definitely snap/zip up. However, still too tight to wear comfortably. I'm guessing (if I can lose another 5 lbs in March), that they will fit by my birthday in April.

Well, Lynn it's progress! I can't zip the 'non-stretch" pair or even pull them all the way up.
I have to say when I started this I thought I would have lost more weight by now....it just seems to hover around the same 5 pounds for weeks! Today I was up 2 pounds:?::?:
Thank goodness for the measurements.....down another inch in my waist, hips the same.
Progress!

way2fluffy 03-23-2009 11:20 AM

Well, my gloria stretch pants are fitting better these days....I need to stick with my WOE and keep good thoughts for "April Fools Day"!!!!!:carrot:

hi
 
what a lot of time i've wasted! If I had really been diligent I would be wearing my jeans by now. Instead they are still a bit too tight. But I am renewing my pledge and I have made progress. These last 2 weeks have been Op and i expect to see some results soon. i don't count on anything untill I see it. My body doesn't always do what it's supposed to do. But i do know that if i continue I will lose, I just have to be patient.

way2fluffy 03-26-2009 01:46 PM

spring pants checking in coming soon to a forum near you......:)

ladyinweighting 03-28-2009 09:49 AM

OK - it's official - I lost 5 lbs since I began this challenge and now fit into the pants. I took them today to get shortened & plan to wear them to my birthday camping get-together in early April.

Hopefully, someone will take some photos & I will post.

Now, how about a "Summer Dress Challenge?"

Lynn

way2fluffy 03-30-2009 05:09 PM

LYNN Bravo!!! Please share pics.....
you are such a LOSER...
I went skiing today and I can tell my pants aren't as tight ... but I've still got miles to go......

Count me in!
 
I am just starting 3FC today - but I know just the pants! They're my favorite, and I'm trying them on Wednesday morning :o fit or no fit.

Well, even though I have lost almost no weight, I seem to be losing inches: the slacks finally close.:carrot:
That having been said, there is definitely serious muffin-top going on, so I won't be wearing them in public any time soon.
As for a dress challenge, I don't do dresses so I won't be doing that one.
I'll check in again May 1st to let you know how the muffin-top is doing.
Keep it up girls!

way2fluffy 04-01-2009 04:17 PM

I've lost some inches....I can see some abs now! But the muffin top is still there .,,, but no longer a bagel top!
I have a beautiful velvet black sheath type classic dress that I've been trying to fit into for years......now that would be a challange!
