  • By some miracle, I was still 228 this morning. Even after gorging on CARAMEL FILLED COOKIES, SUSHI, YAKISOBA, A RIDICULOUSLY HUGE SLICE OF CAKE, and CHICKEN PARM this past weekend.

    I'm back on track today with a delicious turkey sandwich for lunch stuffed with veggies! Also last night I completed W1D3 of c25k, and I'm looking forward to moving on to week 2!
  • I've been in the 220s for forever! It's only been very recently that I've even seen a number lower than 220. These 20 pounds are going to be the hardest to lose. Once I get over the hump, any extra poundage I need/want to lose will be cake. Unfortunately, it's my ToM, so I can't get an accurate scale reading until I'm sure it's over.

    I think I'll still be able to make my 4/30/10 goal of 199lbs. I just have to really push myself the rest of this month and all of next month.
  • Quote: QTest (I forgot your nameee, sorry) - See! Six pounds gain was a lie! It's ok to indulge in a few drinks every once in awhile. You need it. And, you're almost there!

    I want to see this 2 gone by the end of the month. That would be GREAT. I think my TOM is this week. Since I've been working out, my TOM is late by like a week Wah.
    I know!! I was very excited to not see 212 on the scale when I weighed in yesterday. Ugh! I'm staying very OP this week in hopes of at least getting back down to 206!!

    I'm glad everyone else is getting so close!
  • i feel like ive been mia lately, even though i've been gone for only a day. this cold is kicking my butt and makes the days seem a lot longer. lol i am down to 206.8 this morning, so only 7 more pounds to go!! it's good to see that everyone is doing good on getting out of the 200's and welcome to the new faces!! this morning i was able to fit into my "skinny" jeans without having to fight! granted they are size 38 (in mens, i don't like womens cut for jeans), i literally haven't worn them for at least 9 months or more.
  • reporting in w/great news..i am out of the 200's for GOOD!
  • I'm at 203 and while I'm going out tomorrow AND Saturday for drinks, I will keep it to red wine and water and no munchie-food! Wish me luck, guys! lol.

    Grats to all of you!
  • congrats brit for getting out of the 200's!! i weighed in at 205 today, so only 6 more pounds to go and i'm out of the 200's as well!!
  • i am finally close enough to feel right about joining this thread. i got over a little plateau a few days ago and feel on track with my dedication to the gym and fitting in to 16s comfortably (that was big motivation). so i think i can be back to onederland by mid june, conservatively. 7 years ago i was in the 190s, but i think with all the exercise, my body will look even better in the 190s this time around.

    like a week and a half ago i got out of the 220s for the first time in YEARS!!! i feel like a whole new woman. seriously, it was a huge boost of confidence and motivator for me.
    i hope the last 20 are not as challenging for you as you predicted.
  • i'm hovering in the 200s and i want out. this is the highest i've ever been (except for when i was pg with either of my kids i got as high as 222)
    i put 10 pounds on in the past few months and i want to get it off and back into the 190s so i can see the 180s
  • WOHOOOOOO. I'm down to 203.4 so 3.5 pounds away from Onederland! So close! Victory shall be mine!

    I sound like a Spartan. 200!

    Lissa - You can do it! You're so close!
  • 201.4 this morning! I can TASTE 199, lol. I weighed in at 199 once over the weekend but I was stark naked and hadn't eaten in like 6 hours so I don't count it until I can maintain it for a day, hahaha. Come on, 199! I CAN SEE IT!

    Lets go, guys! Woo!
  • I am almost in singe digits... its been taking so long.
  • I finally got over the hump....198 this am!
  • Homehealth!


    I'm half of the way to my first major goal of weighing 214 lbs. 35.1 lbs to get to Onderland and working hard at it,
