Weighed this am at 141.8. Ugh it feels like I was at 142 forever so it was good to see a 141 even though it was a .8. It is taking me forever to lose weight now. I have no clue why as I still have 29 more pounds to go until my goal weight! I recently invested in a bodybugg though and I see that my metabolism is much slower than I would have imagined. Also my job is really sedentary so it has given me the motivation I need to get up and move around more! I hope I succeed with it!
When I first posted in this thread I was 140.6 or something, then I had a few bingey days and jumped back up to 143. Now I'm 140.2... SO CLOSE to getting out of the 140s!
I just got back into the 140s on Sunday - currently at 148. I'm praying I can stick with it!! Trying my best to stay away from anything that'll derail my progress.
CLEARLY we are at a tough weight. I feel that these 140ish to upper 120's/lower 130's is the HARDEST TO LOSE!!
It's nice to hear from people in the same boat. I can't pretend I'm extremely strict with myself, but I do want to lose weight in such a way that it is a lifestyle and not a diet. And, recently, it's just not working. And, I am fairly healthy (eating wise). I could exercise times a week but...that's another story.
So happy about this thread and looking very forward to more posts with some helpful hints.
Anybody try any supplements? I've been hearing a lot about Sensa and i've always been curious about healthy trim or quick trim. Any thoughts or opinions?
Down to 141.5 now. Hoping the numbers keep going down & that I will be in the 130s soon. I am about to start my TOM so I don't think I am going to weigh myself til its over.. lol
im back up to 144! i have no idea why i took such a big jump. i was 138 last week, then it went up to 142 after a night out. I thought it was prolly just water weight, that it would go away, but now im bouncing between 142 and 144. I just moved and my wedding is in 11 days so ive been pretty stressed and not eating well. I got back on track today and im going to work really hard the next 11 days to lose those 4 pounds (which im sure will come off quickly once i focus) and then try and stay there until after my honeymoon. after that ill tackle the rest of these stubborn pounds.
After a couple months of thinking i could do without it im back to calorie counting. when i lost weight last summer i started out with calorie counting and then abandoned it halfway through because i had adopted the healthy eating and didnt need to watch calories anymore. Time to get back into that mentality, but BOY is the cake in the fridge calling my name.
I hope you ladies are doing better than i am.
Do you ladies all hit the gym in the summer? i like working out outside (running and stuff) but i live in Arizona and its HOT
Ooo! I've been looking for this thread I'm around 147 right now (course my weight fluctuates daily. It's between 146 and 150 depending on the day)... Just getting started... not having a good start considering I had my birthday yesterday which was a big ol' exercise in eating. And then we go and make me a birthday cake and hubby tells me "The whole thing is for you, I don't eat that flavor of cake."
You've GOT to be kidding me.
I cannot say no to chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. I ate one all by myself in a day and a half in college once :/
I am ALMOST out. I was at 141 today, but not at my regular weigh in time this morning, only later in the day. So I don't make it count for real just yet, lol. I'm going on a trip this week - and it's gonna be only healthy foodchoices thankfully, and lots of time on my hands in beautiful France nature. So.. I hope when I get back I am out of the 140s - given that I started in my 150s about 5 weeks ago, that would just be the most awesomest thing ever :P
I keep looking on the bright side - when I have gained it's been less than one pound. It's been a fun summer with social events, tempting food, alcohol, and seeing old friends but now that those events are behind me I must get focused on getting into the 130s! I can't wait til my weigh in on Sunday!
Welp just got over my TOM and finally was back down into the 140s last night. Yeebs. I was 149 last night when I woke up this evening I was 146... Probably low since I had juts got up, but still makes me kinda want to sleep 14 hours more often if I wake up 3 pounds lighter. LOL
