Amandie! I recognize your cats from my Victoria's Secret thread! Welcome! We are both 167!

Way to go, Amandie and Underwater! Underwater, I'm so glad it was that sodium beast after all! Remember that next time! Good for you for staying strong even when the scale made you want to go batty!!!!

What kind of ring are you thinking, Underwater?? Can't wait for pics!

ughhhhh I feel wierd on workout days! I know I get 400 extra calories and I just use them on junk! Tonight, I had staff meeting treats at school, plus a grilled cheese AND buttered toast! I was really feelin the bread!

I stayed in calorie range perfectly, but I need to just...I don't know. Maybe I don't need to do anything!? I find I judge my food choices so harshly but hey, if the lbs are coming off, maybe I need to ease up on myself!

I'm gonna join you guys! I was at 165.4, I think, up until a few days ago and then I ate a bunch of crap over a couple of days. This morning I was 169.2. But I'm newly committed!

NC, I think some comfort food is fine if you're sticking to your limits.

Underwater, It must be so cool to be so close to goal!!! I can't wait to see you do it!

Thanks for the welcome, Underwater! So close to goal! That is awesome. Can't wait to see pics of your 100lb lost reward ring!

Aw, Northernchick- I don't really deserve the WTG because last week I was 164.4 and after indulging myself last weekend and over the couple days, I got back up to 167. for it being mostly water weight! I definitely think you need to ease up on yourself! If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Rubidoux- Gah, I did the same thing! I drank and ate a bunch of crap over the weekend plus the last few nights (TOM is coming up) and now I am 167-168 from last week's 164. Let's get back there and beyond! We can do this.

168 today! I feel the 150's calling my name! Congrats to all, it feels so good crossing over

I can't wait to be in this thread!!! Please visit me whoosh fairy!!!

Btw NorthernChick saw this and thought of you!

^hahahahahhaah thats a great video. Hopefully I'll soon be back to the weight I was when I rocked out to BSB on the discman.

Yay look at all these people joining us Commmmmon 150's, haha.

I know I lost another solid 1oz yesterday since I cut a couple more dreads off and now officially have a dread-hawk. Its been 8 years with this hair and this is the first time I've been comfortable enough with myself not to feel I need them to hide behind. Also - found an old t-shirt from high school andddd it fits

Finally starting to drop some weight! This has taken forever. I was at 161.4 this morning after weeks of being around 162.8-164.4. This is taking me forever

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH hhm6, BEST WAY TO START MY DAY!

I love those boys! THANK YOU!!!!! A new song came out this week, just in time for summer! Check it out!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BruEqHpQRgY

dehtripper, you're really rock in' it! 164!!!

I'm starting to recover from my slip up, was at 167.4 this morning. I am also insanely sore from my first Zumba class that I did wed night. I thought my legs were really getting strong from all the hills that I was walking, but that has never made me hurt like this. Anyway I'm hoping that the sore muscles are holding onto a bit of water. Anyone know how long that effect lasts?

hahaha no prob!! And that song is going on my workout playlist!! I'm getting so tired of my music!!

I was 169.5 today, so does that count to be in this thread?!!! I'm so scared to be on this cusp!! I hope I don't start flopping around the 170s again!! Any advice on how to eat on a road trip? I'm road tripping to SF and won't get any solid exercise in and my fam is packing all kinds of junk!! Pack my own lunches maybe?

169.5 totally counts!!! As for the road trip - I would definitely pack my own lunch and snacks. It saves for those momentary lapses in judgement fuelled by hungry-hot-stuffy-car-ride-head.

Oh, and I'm definitely pumping some self-titled Backstreet in my office to get through the 3:00pm slump. Woooohoooo.

I'm rostered in a derby bout tomorrow...which means on one hand that I will be sweating it out on the track for longer than a normal weekend, but on the other hand we have season-opening after party. Hopefully the two will balance each other out.

Totally counts!!!

Have fun in SF! I live in Silicon Valley about 45 min south. I would pack lots of high protein and fiber snacks and make a commitment to stick to your plan. Come back and let us know how it's going. And I hope you're not a LA Kings fan. It's a rough weekend to up here as a Kings fan

Oh man, it seems like those two could def cancel each other out! NorthernChick has managed to get me hooked on BSB again!! lol I've been listening to them on youtube all morning!



Thanks Underwater! hahahaha not a Kings Fan so no worries :-) My sister goes to state so we're moving her out, maybe I can count that as lifting? lol

I'm just praying it sticks around! 170s have not been good to me so I need to be really careful! I'm going to pack right now so I don't have any excuses on the road!
