Welcome Elizabeth!!Congrats on 259!! Isn't it wonderful to see a number you haven't seen in a long time!! Wish I had stuck to Atkins 10 years ago - lesson learned!! Probably not drinking enough water but I am true to the plan.
Fatklr Burrito bowl sounds great!! WannaskipandlaughThanks for the support - Plateau is a 4 letter word!! Still at 203 and when I look at my calendar I see I was stuck at 208 for quite awhile too!!! True confession: I am on daily prednisone so I am happy that I have been able to lose 22 pounds so far - not going off of it any time soon so it will continue to be a slow slow slow process for me. |

Hi Everyone!!! Celebrating 202 today!!!! Yeah - really, really, really happy the scale moved!! I think I need a t-shirt that says "I survived a plateau!!"
I spent some time with Dr. Atkins this weekend and was considering a fat fast if the scale was still at 203 this morning. Very thankful for my book and the support on this forum!!! |

MAY you breeze into the 190's with no stoppover!! |
Happy Friday!! - 199 today!! Yahoo!! Started this challenge at 203 and I am down 4 pounds - maybe I will make goal of 6 pounds by Memorial Day....pretty sure the scale will stay the same for awhile after this week - can't imagine my body will let go of much more for the next few days/week - May has been very kind to me!!!
I have to change my tracker at some point but I'm not ready to do it yet - my final goal is 153-160 but it seems so far away that I need mini goals. The lowest weight I've had is 178 as an adult and even that seems difficult. Going to aim for 188 - 11 pounds and then revisit my tracker..... Wannaskipandlaugh 6 pounds down already this challenge is so great!! You are totally o track to make your goal - so happy for you!!! Thanks soooo much for your support - it helps me to stay on plan. |

Do you feel thinner? are you doing any strength exercises to tone up the muscle for the skin? I am trying.. but being 55 eh... the skin is NOT elastic anymore LOL but it helps alittle..... Have a WONDERFUL day too! |
Reporting 199 today - I guess I know where this is going......probably going to be at 199 for a little bit.
Wannaskipandlaugh I do feel thinner - lots of clothes don't fit anymore - I feel the loss most on my backside and least at my waist - I'm an apple - so my pants get real loose before I can actually change a size because of my waist. I need to work on strength training especially for my arms! |

But wearing clothes that start to fall off is nice. Your Waist and my hips... we will just start telling them to slim down and mean it lol or else lol Have a really nice Sunday and (I wasn't sure) Happy Mothers day to you and your mom....

Good Morning Wannaskipandlaugh I spent some time with the slim fast calculator (I don't do slim fast) and a BMI calculator in the past few days so I added a new ticker but didn't change my old one yet. I realized that I need to lose about 50 more pounds so I am 1/3 of the way to ultimate goal - I don't know why it is such a struggle for me to accept this and just keep moving on but it is. It was easier for me to accept adding up the pound lost moving forward than looking at an ultimate goal weight - I know this sounds crazy....Still committed to updating my first tracker when I get to 188. Still can't believe I got to 199 that seemed like a lofty goal!!! Oh and the slim fast calculator estimated about December and by my own calculations it will take 1 year since I started to get to where I ultimately want to be....

I also did a calculator and put in my altimate final weight and it told me that if I ate 1800 calories a day (really?!) that I would make it there by Oct 2014... lol It seems so far away but I am also only eating about 1200-1400 calories a day so should be faster I hope. So no you are NOT crazy... I understand!! It is strange for me too to look ahead.... It kinda makes me feel like its forever.. I kinda like these challenges with a short term time frame More Comfy :) I can't wait to see what your weight is when you finally get to your scale... I am guessing 196.8 just a guess :) |
Happy Thursday 199 - spent one week in Onederland!!! Getting excited to move on and lose a few more pounds before the end of this challenge!! Wannaskipandlaugh did you notice Jerseygyrl mentioned Walking Off the Pounds on one of the threads...I looked up online and found the videos - think I am going to make an investment!!!Bugs are in full force up here!!

I know that I would like to ease my mind up a bit and not be as strict.... but maybe I do?! I know that when I am alittle less and more mobile so to speak (can sit on the ground and get up without Humpfing out loud lol) I will be exercising more. I know that muscle (even tho it weighs more) does burn calories alot more just to maintain itself... so that is just 1 thing I know I will be doing for the rest of my life... Walking (for sure) Zumba? Eliptical? swimming etc Lulu are there things that you are thinking of doing for yourself when you get to your desired weight? |
196 again today!!! Went to the doctor yesterday - he is so happy I am down 29 pounds - actually impressed - he said if someone can lose 10 pounds that is awesome!! and I am well past 10 pounds like so many of us on this forum!!!
WannaskipandlaughYou ask a really good question and I have no idea what I will do for myself when I get to my desired weight - I've always done everything I want to although the bigger I am the more difficult it is - like climbing a mountain!! My family has always stuck by me even when I am the straggler!! Do you want to do another challenge after this? What date sounds good to you? Hope you have great news today!!! |
Oh Lulu.... I am so happy for you... To have your doctor be impressed HA that is like the "cherry on the top of the sundae" as my grandmother used to say :) I bet that put alittle more bounce in your step (sorry about all the cliche's lol)
Your family sounds wonderful and caring and sounds like they never even considered leaving you out of the trips and adventures.. :) That is nice... gosh.. these last few years I would ask and ask and ask my parents to please sit at a table in a restaurant as I would wedge myself into a booth and it got to the point where I would be seeing them sitting in a booth and then walk in and tell them that I had other plans but wanted to say hi.... so after I lost enough weight to fit (Feb)... now my parents want to sit at a table and I'm like... no NOW I can sit in a booth (They are 78 & 82 so I am giving them a break based on memory but lord how things happen lol) I am thinking that this lifetime lesson for me is to learn patience (with myself and others) and learn to love myself... Tough lessons... :) I am still so happy for you... after doing that 4 letter word "plateau" in your post.. look what has happened to you :) YOUR patience has paid off big time:) Okay time to post weight... I did lose 1/2 whoppie... but at least it did not go up... I was BAD BAD BAD last night (kinda gave up alittle) and ate 6 small Reeses eggs that I bought at Easter, that were sitting in the WAY back of my fridge to have when I was down 50,,,,, well 9 lbs too early lol I got over that desire now.. whew... BACK IN THE FREEZER now.. OH Shoot I told myself where I put them.. argh... lololololol |

Wannaskipandlaugh No worries about the candy but get it out of your house.....Yahoo of the down!! and Ouch!! Sorry about the lack of support from your parents - my mom has sabotaged "diets" before (not this time)!! but one of my sisters is super super supportive and that really helps alot!! and my husband and kids are too!! and this forum too!! Ever watch the movie "Shallow Hal" where Jack Black's character sees the person within? I wish some people could have that vision too - we are all people - not wanting to be judged!! |
