The weight just isn't coming off as fast anymore, and that's ok really. While I'm not at a "normal" weight yet, I can honestly look in the mirror and not see a fat person anymore, and that is a huge victory for me!

    Thank you!

    ...I'm going to try again...

    It's okay if you didn't make goal as long as you keep TRYING! Better than giving up altogether because you would eventually get there. At least that's what I tell myself.

    That is truly awesome! I think I am slowly getting there to that mindset. I hope to see the 160s in August as well!

    I am SO sore from painting at the house today. Painting ceilings are a pain in the butt especially if you have to do about 3 coats! Haha. At least I get a break tomorrow since the floors are going to be done. Whew. Excited the boyfriend is coming on Friday to move in.

    I aimed for a 5lb loss this month. I knew 10 lbs wasn't going to happen, I started seriously training to run 5k and some circuit workouts, so I knew my muscle soreness was going to be adding on lots of numbers on the scale.

    But I'm happy I went down 7lbs. Hopefully I'll see the 150s over the next few weeks.

    Congrats to everyone who lost anything this month. Losing at all is an achievement. heck maintaining a weight is actually doing well.

    I think I've nailed this maintenance business! I'd be appalled at my lack of progress this month (especially given how successful all the previous months were) but I peed on a stick and got a big fat positive on the 5th, so actively losing is not allowed at the moment. It's due late February or early March, so count me in for the "lose ten pounds in April 2013" challenge!
  • August 1st and it didn't happen...but I am still down 5 lbs.
