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....

Hello Lulu.... 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

Hello Lulu.... Walking is a good thing.... I was doing 10 miles a week and then hurt my ankle... and have been taking care of my parents place for 2 weeks now but I am starting back walking 2 1/2 miles 4 x's starting Sunday I cannot wait. I am just still alittle too heavy and out of shape to do power walking yet... but LS walkaway... I heard about that. Let me know Lulu what you think! and I wish your scale had moved again... but its still under 200 and that is just Marvelous!! Have a really nice day.

196 this morning!!

Wannaskipandlaugh Right back at ya!! I am proud of you!! 43 pounds down - can't wait until I can say the same thing!! I really think you will see your body let go and head downdowndown!!!

This man I work with has been maintaining a 66 pound loss for 4 weeks - he weighs 214 - like me he stuggles with overeating if he goes off plan - that's the part of the journey I am most concerned with - how to maintain......

Lulu you impress me sooo much. I am so very happy for you... About maintaining... yikes... I have at least a year to think about it.. but yeah... 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?
