Well....I didn't start this journey as a featherweight, that's for sure. But nearly 80 pounds down, I tiptoed into the 130s yesterday and stayed there this morning. Getting out of the 140s has been an 8 week battle - the slowest yet of this journey. My initial goal weight was 135, so I'm hoping to reach that and then reassess for a lower goal weight of 125. I have a large frame, despite being 5'0 tall, so I'm not quite sure what my ideal weight should be.

welcome dogdaysofdiets - and congrats on the awesome loss! i hope you are enjoying your body!

My body drops the weight in weird intervals or so. I was stuck at the 138-139 for 2/3 weeks, and then within a matter of 2 days went to 132-133. And now I am sitting here for a week already. While my deficit would warrant atleast some loss. I know in a week or more, I'll probably drop down to 128 just like that. Weirdness.

I have a similar experience, I inch along for a week or 2, go up one week a smidge and then blammo, down again significantly so usually.

Philana, we're like weight loss twins XDD

I tried weighing myself on my digital scale and my parents old dial scale...I'm 133 on their scale and 132.2 on my scale, so I'm calling it 133.

My mom made granola last night, and she must have put in less brown sugar than she normally does, because it barely tastes sweet and is AMAZING! My dad doesn't like it so...more for me! One more food to be careful around, but I figure a few spoonfuls a day won't kill me >__>;

Haha, I saw your other post too, we must be! We have about the same stats also. It's cool! I am pretty sure I am at 133 right now too, maybe even 134 after my crazy carnival party day today.

I have to say gals, the low 130s is the nicest place I've been in YEARS. I feel really like my old self again. I don't shy away from pictures anymore. I dare to dress in tight clothes. I jump around and make jokes. Basically I am just me again. It will only get better the lower I go, but obviously this is the weight where I will have to never go above anymore. I know now the difference between being 140 and 132. And it's major for me. So, there's my max for once I go into maintenance or find myself slipping ever again. 132-135. Not an ounce more.

JoJoP 02-19-2012 07:33 PM

My scale said 131.2 this evening....

WTF? I started my diet on Jan 16th and I've lost 14 pounds since then??

I'll see what I weigh tomorrow morning, and keep working on my weights...I hope that none of the weight I've lost has been muscle =l

lulubellebc 02-19-2012 08:33 PM

135.5 today, half way through the 130's :)

krampus 02-20-2012 10:18 AM

130.5 this morning after a big drinking weekend. I WILL see 129.something this week, this is my vow!

philana 02-20-2012 10:28 AM

135 here, after a big drinking fest yesterday, LOL. And even I am sure I will see 129.5 this week. I am just gonna go nuts the rest of the week. It must happen.

moviegrl1737 02-21-2012 09:55 AM

Everyone cross your fingers. If I hit 137 today it will be 30 lbs lost since joining WW and 55 since I started this journey, and exactly 10 lbs from goal.

BAAAAAAAAAM, 129.5 this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

philana 02-21-2012 12:33 PM

CONGRATS Krampus. I am right behind you. As is JoJoP!
Haha, it motivates me to think of us all leaving the 130s behind.

lulubellebc 02-21-2012 01:30 PM

Goodluck moveigrl!
Congrats Krampus!
Looks like there are a few of you moving or soon to be moving on to that 120's thread :)

JoJoP 02-21-2012 01:32 PM

I weighed in at 130.8 this morning o_o Despite my mini-binge yesterday.

I really am thinking that I need to up my calorie intake, especially re: protein.

krampus 02-21-2012 02:44 PM

Look at us go! :D I decided to move my goal. I've always been pretty happy at or below 128 but since I'm less muscular than I have been in the past, I'm thinking I could push a little more. With my body type I wouldn't look too skinny unless I got significantly under 110. Let's just see how this goes - today is one of those "anything seems possible" days!

I have this same attitude! =D

philana 02-21-2012 03:11 PM

Arh. I know I'll catch up with you girls by the end of the week or so, but I just hate having to be patient. lol. I wanna be under 130 by monday. Just because. I know I can do it!

Manatee Muffin 02-22-2012 03:36 PM

Hi! Newbie to this thread and I'm soooo frustrated! I'm at 139 and can't seem to move any lower, despite all my efforts.

I feel your pain, welcome aboard!

JoJoP 02-23-2012 07:54 AM

Booo up to 132 this morning! Wonder why, huh *shrug* didn't binge or anything yesterday.

Ah well, onward I go!

krampus 02-23-2012 10:29 AM

Up to 131.0 this morning. Leaving soon I hope!

lulubellebc 02-26-2012 10:17 AM

135 today, slowing making my ways through the 130's :)

krampus 02-26-2012 10:53 AM

132.5 this morning, went way overboard on carbs yesterday. Feel rotten sugar hangover today.

dogdaysofdiets 02-26-2012 06:44 PM

A new low of 138 yesterday morning, but bounced back up to 138.4 this morning. I would LOVE a big whoosh soon...these last few pounds are slow moving!

dogdaysofdiets 02-28-2012 10:52 AM

Enjoying a bit of a whoosh. Saw a new low of 136.7 this morning. Hoping I get to hold onto it.

krampus 02-28-2012 12:31 PM

131.0. Going in the right direction.

ShrinkingAmy 02-28-2012 09:08 PM

Well I just made it to the 130s but I'm wanting down to the 120s, so here I am! Staying somewhere around 1500 cals/day and running 3x week. I often eat back some of my exercise calories too :0

moviegrl1737 02-29-2012 04:38 AM

I have been weighing in daily at 135.4 since last Friday but my official weight watchers weigh in which is in the evening was 136.6 good enough for a 2 lb loss and hitting 30 lbs since rejoining ww.

lulubellebc 02-29-2012 08:41 AM

134.5 today

dogdaysofdiets 03-02-2012 06:48 AM

Still enjoying a whoosh week. Weighed in at 135.4 this morning. Resetting my goal to 125.

lulubellebc 03-04-2012 11:06 AM

133.5 :) Hope everyone is having a good week.

philana 03-04-2012 11:15 AM

I bumped up to 136 after 2 weeks off plan, finally back down to 134 -- but before I am out of these 130s.. gosh. I hope this month, but who knows!

Keep it up girls!

dogdaysofdiets 03-04-2012 11:32 AM

134.9 for me today - same as yesterday.

d130 03-04-2012 01:13 PM

131.25 this morning, so hoping I see the 120s at some point in March!

lulubellebc 03-07-2012 09:51 AM

133 today :) Hoping to see the 120's before my vacation to Cancun mid April.

Just noticed I have now lost 70 lbs, I have been so focused on getting into the 120's I wasn't paying attention to this number!

moviegrl1737 03-07-2012 10:04 AM

Congratulations that's amazing!

lulubellebc 03-07-2012 10:24 AM

Thanks moviegrl :)

d130 03-07-2012 10:30 AM

Made it to 130 even today, so here's hoping the 120s are just around the corner. :)

krampus 03-07-2012 11:44 AM

Congrats lulubelle and d130!

130.0 today. I don't understand how, I've been eating cake and chocolate like a beast lately.

Oleander 03-07-2012 08:45 PM

LOL when I tried to "get out of the 120s" I did NOT mean "and into the 130s!".
Time to get UNDER the 130s and 120s for good. =) I'm so serious.
