I don't usually post in the 20-somethings forum but chronologically I fit here and I love the idea of a thread to get out of the 180's. I have been stuck in the low 180's for about a month now (9 months ago I was 25 lbs. lighter )and I would like to see the 170's soon. Hopefully this will give me a little extra push.

Good luck everybody!

So it's the end of my first week of working out/eating right and I'm terrified to weigh myself. I go to the gym today and the scale will be right there...but I'm so...freaking...scared... I feel like I've lost. I feel smaller, but... what if I'm wrong? Maybe I should weigh once a month? What do I do?

Don't be afraid to get on the scale. You will most likely be pleasantly surprised at the number! It sounds like you did a good job this week; the number on the scale is bound to have gone down.

Go ahead and get on the scale!! Normally the first week brings good news on the scale. Well I finally made it to the gym. My husband decided he wanted to start working out so its going to be a lot easier for me to go now. Hope everyone is doing well and congrats to all the losses!

I did it.

I got on the scale.

And

I

Lost

3 pounds!!!

184, Baby!

Finally graduated to this thread. 186.4lbs this morning and I am pumped to keep going. 185lbs is my first mini goal and I am treating my self to my first session of microdermabrasion . But I won't probably get it done until I am officially 185 or lower.

Welcome! I myself am hoping I graduate FROM this thread tomorrow, so perhaps this will be a brief meeting.

Yes! I was right! I just weighed in at 177.5, which means I finally get to leave this thread... hopefully FOREVER!

Oh my gosh, so jealous of your super short time in this thread. Congratulations though!

down to 187 this morning, shaaaaazam

182.8!!!

I'm so excited!

Wow! positive news from just about everyone!

And me too! I weighed in at 183 this morning!!! woot not long until the 170s now.

Keep it up everyone.

Howdy everyone! Excited that my weigh-in this morning put me in the 180s...and can't wait to leave! I'm down 2 pounds to 188, so you'll have me with you for a few weeks. Stay on track!

Welcome sharongracepjs! I don't see many updates here!

181.4!

I can't believe I'm almost out of here! I really didn't think it'd happen. And it seems like the time has gone by so quickly.

Ya know, I'm getting really excited about going hiking next Spring. I don't know why. I've never done it before, but I feel like it could be my "thing." Sorry, just a side note.

i feel terrible being back in the 180s! i lost 10 lbs and got out of there a few months ago right before summer. i went from 183 to 173 but over summer gained it right back and it was because i wasnt really serious, i got too cocky about my loss and figured i didnt need to work as hard anymore, but im ready to get back into my workout routine and hopefully i'll see the rest of you in the 170s soon
