186....YEAH BAYBEE! (down one and a half)
Soozie

Way to go Soozie you goddess you! I guess all of your cleaning and redecorating has really paid off for you. Congratulations!
Virginia

Still holding at 175.

Congrats you losers! :D

Okay, what the heck... I weighed this morning. Sojo, we're right on track together. 192. You know, if I was even moderately careful I could lose 3 pounds this week. It would such a dubious thrill to be in the 180's.

Yay Ellis!
 

I agree.... lets get out of these 190's and down into the 80's! I can't wait for that scale to flash 189.5... its so close. Now we just need to stay on track this week and if we are really careful we could maybe do it. This morning my scale read 192.5... three pounds would be tough but possible. Well, I am going to go for it! Even if I don't hit 189.5 by Monday, any weight lost will get me that much closer and it can't be much longer. My goal is to be at 188 by the end of the month; this would be a five pound weight loss for the month and put me at 10 down!

Ok, I'm going to go do my new exercise video... T'ai Chi for Weight Loss... there is a kind of cute guy on the cover wearing no shirt. Hopefully his ripped abs will keep me entertained for the next 45 minutes! :p

Hi girls,
Just checking in to say I am back from TOPS tonight and I am down 1 lb, so now I am 249. Not a big loss but no gain so I am happy with that after the weekend I had.
Virginia

yip yip Virginia!!!
Keep it up!!
:dance: :cp: :clap:

oops! I meant :cb:

ok...I have been in denial long enough. I hope this is a liberating act, cuz it is damn near killing me to face the truth...
starting weight: 2 (gulp)74
today...after shaving my legs and removing all my nail polish...256


when is this liberating effect suppose to take effect?

ok...maybe it is a gradual thing..buliding...like an orgasim...we can only hope.

Ginya, you should try that trick of getting a bag and filling it with bricks or potatoes or rice or something. If you've lost 20 pounds or whatever, fill it with that amount in weight. Then lift it everytime you feel crappy, and you'll realize how much you've actually accomplished.

Ginya!
 

Be proud of yourself girl! You have lost 18 pounds... that is amazing! We all know how difficult it is to lose weight. I am estatic with every half pound off of my body and I just want to lose more. You are doing great my friend. Congratulations!

:cp:

Way to go Ginya
I was 270 when I decided to do something about it too, and now I am down to 249, I was so excited when I went below 250, I have not been down that low in about 7 or 8 years. So you see, we can do it!:jig: :cp: :cb:
Virginia

Yes, virginia...there IS a Santa Claus! we just don't want to weigh as much as he does!
Congrats on your loss!

I started *AGAIN* (for good) this time last week, at 264...today, I am thrilled to say, I'm 258!!

Onward and downward!

Ginya...by the way...that was a LOT of hair and nail polish!! :lol: Just kidding, hon... congrats to you too and to all the rest of us LOSERS!

Way to go Kat! You are cruisin girl. What are you doing to lose that much weight? Please tell me it is lots of sex! Then I can tell hubby and maybe I will lose some. Hahah!
Virginia

Congrats to Ginya and Virginia for your losses! :cp:

I am still at 155 and holding.

Hi everyone I'm new here and am so happy to see that there are heaps of others out there going through the same thing as me :D lol
I have just started a healthy eating and exercise plan and need all the motivation and support I can gather!
Anyway I am currently 178 lbs and would love to lose at least 5 pounds by the end of October and hopefully to continue the trend downwards till i reach 110 lbs :P but fist things first lol

umm...Virginia...a LOT of sex? There may have been some sex involved, but he's not getting credit for all the other exercise I did!!
Actually, I tried a novel approach this time around...get this...I stuck to my diet and exercised every day! :yikes:
Go figure...

Hey Hippy... welcome!!! Come and tell us all about yourself!

Hey Mauvais, where've you been hon?

Virginia,
how many times a day do you hear that lovely quote about Santa Clause...cuz I get the same ding-dong thing...my personal favorite is:
I knew a girl who's name was Virginia, we called her Virgin for short...but not for long...(usually followed by a snort and a chuckle, right)
I get Virg...Gin...V...and Ginny...ugh! But there are not many people who have an official abbreviation for their name, VA.

Thanks for all the support! I need it, got a long way to go, but I think I have my head on straight, as I only expect or want to loose 10 pounds a month...(don't want no neck wadle...ewwww the women who get the surgery look like deflated condoms)

So, with y'all as my support...as well as my confessors and mentors, I think I can do this thing!

New thread started for Sunday, October 13, but this one will be archived :)
