I can join now! 149.8 this morning. I hope I am still here tomorrow! The scale is moving SLOW lately.

I timidly stepped in a couple of weeks ago. Just more determination to keep the scale in the 140's!

I am still here.... Hope to leave it by end of month

You're really close to leaving it! Congrats!!

Okay, I fell off the wagon. Plummeted off the wagon may be more appropriate. When I weighed myself this morning after a long haitus from diet, exercise, and logging in here, I was at 154. I am disappointed but ready to get back on track. I hope to be back in the 140s club soon.

Bunnabear, that was so me last week. I got too friendly with takeout food and some gelato I discovered at Publix over the past two weekends and crept back up to 152. Felt guilty then treated myself to a massage as my husband gave me a pep talk for getting this far. That worked, because I have managed to get back to 147.5. Just keep swimming.

Thanks for the encouragement Aunrio! Don't you hate when you find something new like that and you love it and almost can't get enough. I have become almost reluctant to try new foods that are not "healthy" items for fear I will love them Keep up the great work, you are headed in the right direction!

I was dilligent this week without being so restrictive that I set myself up for failure and I'm down 2 pounds. YAY! Today is my "cheat day" so I have to strive for moderation and not ruin my progress.

141 this morning. I'm creeping slowly closer to the 130's!

So happy I made it through the weekend with Dairy Queen and cookies and managed to maintain weight. Now to tackle a pound this week.

How are all of you doing that have been staring the 130s in the face, ErinT and PrincessSophia? I had a happy day because I stood on the balance scale at the gym in my clothing and only had to move the heavy weight to 100 and the light one to 48. Now my goal is not to have to move that big weight back to 150 again, unless I am wearing the heaviest winter coat ever.

I've been cheating here and there. I got a nice promotion at work and my husband brought home a single serving of sheet cake (my favorite!!) to celebrate! I have been trying not to overdo it terribly, but I haven't been as careful lately. Still today, I found myself down another 2 lbs. I'm really happy. I had a goal weight of 145 by my baby's first birthday and I have passed that. I think the next 14 lbs are going to be the hardest!!

ErinT, congrats on the promotion and meeting your postpartum goal weight early. I remember going to my primary care doctor on my son's first birthday last November and I was able to fit size 10 pants, which was the first time for that :-). I just hit a goal of being able to do unassisted pull ups within a year of joining the YMCA. I did it 2 months early but now I have to do something about these man muscles I have. J/k sort of.

Happy April 140s. Hope you all are doing well. Theoretically I am supposed to put in a lot of work this month to get down to the 137-140 range which is where I wanted to maintain. However I got into size four pants and think today's weight may be the max on my maintenance range though I want to a lower percent body fat.

Did Easter hit anyone else hard? My Monday weight check had me two pounds up. Working extra hard this week to compensate for indulgences and to shift the scale in the other direction

Oh well. I was resisting talking to myself which is the case after 3 posts in a row. I dropped a pound finally but have 5 to go. This is a lonely ten pounds. It does seem like goal weights are either set at 150 or somewhere in the 120-130 range so most members do their darnedest to not have anything to do with the 140s. Good luck to all venturing through this Spring. I have got 6 weeks to get my beach body.
