I'm at 141 and just realized that this is my last "get out of" thread. I won't ever want to be out of the 130s. Which is crazy to me.

Congrats on being normal, Eliana!

Niecey - Keep going, your body will just have to submit!

rachael - That is exciting! Me too - 140's will be the last decade I want to get out of, I'm pretty sure of that.

As for me, 146 this morning. It would be so great to start bouncing around somewhere in 145! I'm still in shock to see even 140's - sometimes I look down and reverse the numbers while I'm still sleepy - oh no, I must be 164 - wait a minute, no I'm not!! haha

I do this when I lose fast! LOL! I saw "148" the other evening as an evening weight and panicked thinking it was "158". Not really a reversal, but I can't get the "4" in my head for the "40"'s.

Yes, for some reason the 4 is really hard to wrap my mind around.

Anyways, I plummeted .8 today, so I'm at 145.2 and a normal weight! I just loved fitday telling me my weight was within a normal range. Tomorrow, I may be back at 146, but for today I'm enjoying it!

That's how I feel! LOL! Going from obese to overweight I fell smack into the category and stayed there. Now yesterday I was normal, today I'm overweight, back and forth. Once I see that number, I consider myself "normal" period. I go with my lows. Eventually it will skirt down low enough.

Yup, I'm overweight today!! 146.4. I won't be able to consider myself normal until I weigh in on Saturday, and only if it's in the normal range. Those are my only "official" weights. It's funny how we all have our little systems, huh??

angeluv - Hope you get to the 130's very soon!

I'm at 145.4 this morning. I think it will take a long time to get out of the 140's. Maybe by April? We'll see. I've lost 4.2 pounds this month so far, hoping to get to an even 5 but who knows.

Mmmm, see I went up another half pound today. It's time for me to retain some water, yet again. It will be a while before I get out of the 140's, that's certain. Still, I lost 8 pounds this month! I'm ok with a short stall for a few weeks.

mydearthing - YAY!! Sounds like a great goal to me!

Eliana - Congrats on 8 pounds!! I know you've been on a long plateau prior to losing again, but still 8 pounds in one month when you're so close to goal, is awesome!!

Thank, yes! I kicked that plateau to the curb! I was on it November 1 through February 1 so it was time to move on already. I worked hard for those 8 pounds though. I wouldn't call it a whoosh. Had I kept on keepin' on I'm sure I'd still be back where I was.

My current stall is annoying because I am putting in SO much work at the gym right now but I know it's entirely TOM related. And I ask myself if it would make a difference and honestly, what I'm doing at the gym is fun. I'm not doing it to get the last 10 pounds off. That's actually a side benefit. I'm doing it because there's a group of us competing against each other and it's fun. It's nice knowing my fitness goals have honestly and truly switched over from weight loss oriented to gosh-let's-see-what-****-my-body-can-tolerate-this-week.

Well, I am in the 130s officially, it has lasted a few days so I feel like it is here to stay. So this is my goodbye to goodbye threads. Weird.
