I was down to 141 in July then the crap hit the fan and I let stress get the better of me. Now back to 147.4. This is how i got to 212 in the first place and I recognize the signs. I know I don't want to be that person again so I need to get my act together. I CAN do this! We can all do this!!
Hi ladies. I am Sarah married sahm of 4 kiddos. I got down to 133 in August but have fallen off the wagon and am all the way back up to 142.4. It is time to get back on that wagon and I am hoping to make this a short visit back in the 40's thread.
Have been stuck in a rut between 141-143 for the past few months and am ready to get back in the 130's! so excited for some inspiration from all of you guys!! you all rock
SW: 151
CW: 142.8
GW: 130
Here's to hard work! Hopefully I can be out of this thread soon!
I made it to 138 but then hurricane sandy hit and i had no time to exercise/eat healthy (I ate out every day). Up to 141/142 (depends on the day). Between work and school it's difficult to eat healthy or exercise but I copied and pasted some recipes from 3fc and my mom makes them for me I want to make them too once I have time but at least I know I am eating healthily! I am working on the exercise bit, it's just that I am in work and school nearly all day. It's only a 20 minute workout but I just keep making excuses... trying to get my butt in gear now wanna be in the 120s by new years.
148 who thought I could be so happy saying that !
hopefully by December it will be in my rear knew mirror.
For now it is so good to say. It's all about prospective.
I love my Coach and IP!!
Just noticed this thread! I think this *may* be the last "get me out of the ..." thread I will ever participate it (I wanna say so anyway).
I've seen as low as 145.8 2 days ago, then had an indulgence meal and today was 147. It's funny, it seems I don't see the full ramifications of bad eating until 2 days later. Hoping I can get back down into the 145s tomorrow! I'd LOVE to be 142 or below by the end of the month!
I'm brand new to this site and joined because I really like the idea of the "get me out of the...." posts and because everyone looks so supportive! *waves*
While I maybe not be technically a featherweight yet, I am thinking in terms of featherweight goals, so my first goal is simply to get out of the 140s and so that's what I'm focusing on.
I am 42 years old and getting a little panicky about my weight and how hard it's gotten to get it back down to where I want it. I am petite (5'2") with a small-medium frame so being around 143 right now makes me look chunky.
My adult weight I've ranged between 123 or so and 185 (a brief high) with MOSTLY being between 135-145.
I got divorced this past summer (VERY amicable divorce but still very stressful and sad) and weight went up to the upper 140s and would not go down for a few months.
I've gotten myself down to 143 through careful eating during the week and some treats on the weekends as well as running. This morning I weighed in at 145, though, because I had some treats yesterday (planned), so I know it's mostly water weight and am not alarmed.
My initial first goal is just to get into the 130s, so yes, I want to say goodbye the 140s!!!
Oh, and my stats:
Age: 42
Height: 5'2"
Starting weight: 151.2
Current weight: 143
Goal weight range: 110-120 (120 being the very highest range like if I have my period AND have been on vacation for days stuffing my face).
I weighed in at a crappy 146.6 (almost 4 pounds UP from my Friday weigh-in of 142.8). That's how my body rolls, though, I'm used to seeing huge jumps and falls, depending on what I eat. I honestly didn't eat that much yesterday and yet I put on an entire pound, so I know my body is very sensitive to water retention. Oh well! I am HOPING by Thursday morning to be back down to the lower 140s. Then it's Thanksgiving.
Those of you who live in the US, how are you going to survive the holidays? I am going to eat normal on Thanksgiving (I believe in enjoying life and holidays), but it's going to be a struggle the rest of the weekend. We'll have relatives around and special eating things, I'm sure, and it will be challenging! I have a tendency to drink too much wine around my family which of course leads to more eating!
We can all do this!!
