Today was a good day. So far my cravings have been SEVERE, but I'm empowered by the willpower I have and I've been able to continue on. Every time a craving gets intense, I just down some water. I will get to my goal, I will make sure of it! I'm leaving 200 pounds in the dust! Hello 190s, hope we aren't acquainted for long!

Raining- Thanks! Feels good to no longer say 200! and woo, you dropped 2 pounds, that's great!


PurpleJ- Hope you feel better. Good job staying motivated at a time like this- I don't know if my willpower could make it through a medical emergency or not!

Trayteam- Ooh seafood sounds amazing! congrats on the 3.4 lbs off so far, you are almost there!

iDream- that really sucks, hope you get it all straightened out at the GYN. I love your commentary with your results, they made me chuckle.

PrairieQueen- good job on the 2 drops!

HereIstand: When did you start? I'm on my first week and I'm wondering when the larger drops start to slow?
Also, you are still dropping, which is what's important- Keep up the good work!

GettigFit: wishing you luck!

Gardenerjoy- Thanks it feel nice! and good job for posting in the morning like you planned!

Unwanted37: Keep up the good work, I sense another whoosh soon

kymb92: It's going down! Keep it up!

leopardspots: WOO to low while ON TOM is amazing!

Berryblondeboys: hang tight, keep it up and you'll get that whoosh

Lovelyleah: I know what you mean, that's what would happen to me on any normal diet, that's why I went low/no carbs, you see progress so much faster, but it's really hard. Hang in there just think, you are still 2 pounds lighter than when you started

Lovemylife001: Thanks and good luck with your weigh in! Keep us posted!

I'm happy!

Mydarlingqueen, look at you go! on hitting Onederland! You are on fire!

Trayteam, that little jump up will fall back off! Hang in there!

Purple, bless your heart! I am so glad that you went to the hospital and got that properly taken care of! Wow! Now, don't you worry about that little bit of water weight gain. You just take care of yourself and get well!

Lovemylife, on your weigh-in!

HereIStand, it's hard to predict what we really might lose in a month, but it's always fun to shoot for a goal on this challenge! You're doing great!

Leah, unexpected water weight is always a bit frustrating, but the good news is that it IS just water weight, and I'm sure you'll get another whoosh soon!

BerryBB, yay! Onward and Downward!

Raining, woohoo on losing another lb!

Leopardspots, congrats on your continued loss!

PrairieQueen, looking good! Way to go!

Kymb92, yay on another drop!

Unwanted37lbs, you just keep going down, down, down!

Joy, good job on the drop and I look forward to your post in the morning!

GettinFit, hoping you get your whoosh soon!

Sandye, oh my, 11 days of a lingering TOM? Ugh! I'm glad you are getting in to see the doc so quickly!

MsTibbles, woohoo sticking to plan! Good job! The new avatar is too much, lol!

Econ_nerd, wow! On the edge! How exciting!

Delphi, I hope you get that whoosh!

[pigeon]

Whoa, Jacqui, congrats for the whole pound drop! Reason to be happy indeed!

I'm happy too. TOM weight coming off, and even if I really screwed up on one night last week, the damage wasn't that much.

Good Morning Everyone

My official weight today is 144.0 A 3 pound loss for the week. I'm so excited. Really close to overall goal.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

[CountMyFreckles]

Hey! I'm late to the group, but better late than never!

Starting so late, my goal loss for August is 4 lbs (2lbs a week). I'm hoping to be down a pant size and maybe even a shirt size (large chested... never seemed to go down when I lost weight before) by my birthday (Oct. 4).

I just got my first haircut in YEARS, yesterday and it actually made me feel beautiful (until I saw the full length mirror). I decided right then that I'm turning 30 soon and I refuse to go up another pant size (averaging my age every year in pant sizes). This year, I WILL go down!

Here we go!



I find it hilarious that you can't see my freckles in this picture. They cover my nose and cheeks. lol

Even though I eat well on Fridays, for some reason my scale likes to go up on Saturday mornings. I'm up half a lb. Hopefully I'll break into the 180's next week though! And yay, today is my Carb Day!

MyDarlingQueen I'm already mostly low-carb. I'm not on a specific low-carb diet and I also don't really pay attention to carbs (I'm a calorie counter) but I've noticed that when I eat OP my daily carbs are almost always around 100g.

So I'm fairly certain TOM is coming soon. Not only do I feel puffy and bloated but I want to eat an ENTIRE BOX of stale oreos. Yep, that's definitely a hormone thing.
