  • Still. Stuck.
  • You know I come on here almost daily and whine cuz the scale has gone up a bit or stayed the same. But REALLY ... come on ... I am in the 200-teens ... and I have stayed there. Yes maybe I went back up to 219 and I sit at 217 today... I really need to celebrate the 200-teens! Not in a celebrate way that says I can EAT unhealthy... but embrace the 200-teens! HOOT 4 me!
  • Cathy, exactly! We have to remember how when we were in the 220s (or above) how much we wanted to be HERE. Life is good in the 2-teens, whether we are here for weeks or months (but not years, lol).
  • I got here exactly 20 days ago and thought I would fly out, no such luck I bounced back up to 224 and have been fighting my way back here, and here I am!! I am proud to report that I can once again say "GET ME OUT OF THE 200-TEENS!!!" this time I will NOT go back to twotwentyland, I think I overstayed my welcome!
  • Finally down a smidge to 213.6 - I was SO glad to see the scale move, even a little bit!
  • Finished my TOM yesterday and down 0.5 today FINALLY. Agreed, calluna, I know how you feel!
  • Still 212 here. After that whoosh last week I will probably sit at 212 for a week I would guess. Which is a good place to be
  • so glad I lost the weight I gained from vacation...now down to 212.8...I'm soooo ready for onderland!
  • It is me...checking in...still here...still willing to be OP...which is oh so great! You know the stories of "rain dances" to make it rain? I wonder if I could do a "scale number go down" dance...and that would work? Hummmm I think it is called exercise!
  • I'll do a scale dance with you Cathy! I need to get back into my exercise routine!
  • I did a good scale dance last night! It was this really cool dance where I laid and/or sat down on a bench and waved heavy things around in the air over my head.

    It seems to be a positive contributing factor, because I was at 213.0 this morning. I was sort of surprised, actually. Last night I kept the weight moderate and increased reps; I'm a bit sore today and thought for sure I'd be up a bit with the soreness. You just can't predict ...
  • I'm down to 210.5 today! Almost on my way to the onderland express!!!
  • This morning the scale said.....


    210.0! So close!
  • waaaaaa.....after an op week since Thursday - I thought I would be out of the teens. Oh well....next week, I hope.
  • Beverly you're getting so close! Just keep it up and we will BOTH be there in no time!
