Yay US! I had a one pound loss too...(I think if I spell it out it looks bigger LOL)

It's so shocking to be qualified for this 'home stretch' group already!
I've only been on this for 5 weeks - down 20, 19 to go- It's unbelievable how fast this has been! This forum is amazing, there is so much support and encouragement, I'm grateful for all of you!!!

Congrats, getting closer!

Great job

Way to go, JODIO! Congrats on joining the 25 left club!

I had a great loss this week, which for me is unbelievable. It's TOM time, and I still lost 3.6 pounds. After last weeks 6 pound loss, I truly was not expecting anything this week. But my body just wanted to lose more.

I'm going to lower my goal weight I think, but for now, I'm enjoying having not much more to lose. I don't want to tack on another 10 pounds to lose right now. :)

I'm happy to be joining everyone here this week also! I went from 26 lbs to go last week to 22 lbs to go this week. I thought I would never get here. The last couple of months my losses had slowed to about half the rate.

All of a sudden, it's back to the rate I was at the first 4 months on IP.

Congrats Ragdoll, what an amazing loss.

Great Loss, ragdoll! Congrats! Hope the great losses keep coming! :)

WOW! What a transformation!!!! Congrats - great job!!!

Thanks sstw1!

I just did my week 21 weigh in - another 1.8lbs down, which puts me about 11lbs to goal! I'm kind of waiting for a big slowdown in losses but I haven't seen it yet. Part of me is wondering if I need to lower my goal again, I'm still pretty fluffy in a few areas and I don't feel burnt out on the diet yet. I've also started doing some super light exercise (I have a 20 minute yoga session set up on my wii fit, it's not enough to get my heart rate up but enough so that I can feel my muscles working) and may increase that as I get closer to goal too. I love that IP has me back in tune with my body and what it needs :)

Chug-a-chug-a, chug-a-chug-a, choo-choo!

The train has slowed but at least it's still moving in the right direction... another -1 for the week. Eleven more to go :)

Great work everyone...may your holidays be merry, bright and OP :)

I've been looking forward to joining this group for a long time! I feel like my losses are starting to slow, but not enough for me to re-think my goal (the next few weeks will be telling). I would really like to fit in my pre-children wardrobe, and I need to lose at least 15-20 more pounds to do that.

Good luck to all of you in the home stretch! :cheer3::cheer3:

I just realized that I've reached the 25# milestone! I'm a lurker here, as this is only my second post, and have been doing Alternative IP for almost one month. I can't believe that as of this morning I am 25 pounds away from my goal...

This really is the home stretch... congratulations to all of you!

Holidays have not only been survived, they have gotten a righteous butt whupping. Just did my weigh in, I am down 3.4 pounds and 3/4 of an inch!!! HELLOOOO 160's!!!

That means:
-one pound until I get another reward bracelet
-eight pounds to goal
-three pounds from the weight I last maintained for several years before having kids!

Great loss Scorbett1103!

I logged a 2.0lb loss this week and am pretty happy with that given the fact that I had a pretty nasty cold.

Bump! This thread was buried!

I have 22lbs to go after a nice 3.4lb loss this week!
