The old thread was locked, so I started the new one!

Kinda sad that I am still in the dang 180's though- up again to 180.8. Wish I could atleast get a tiny budge. I've been on the up for a few days now, and it is really irritating! Hope tomorrow brings a better number. I am doing everything right, thinking maybe it is water retention since I haven't worked out in ages and just got back to the gym routine these last 2 weeks.

Hope every one else is getting better numbers than me!

Congrats on the weight-loss thus far!! While you're surely heading out of the 180s in no time, I'm clawing to get into the 180s! Best of luck!

187.6! Been hovering around the 180s for too long now. Time to get back to business!!!!

The good news is im a good 178 & going down .

the really bad news is that ive bought a new scale & on there im 183 jeeez!!!!!! So i guess im sticking around abit longer. (which is fine i like you guys!)

I'm still stuck around 182-5 :S I have had to re-evaluate my lifestyle big time, because it didn't fit in with my new job. I've started eating more calories so I don't expect to see a loss for a while until my body gets used to it.

I'm hobbling around the 180-182 lbs mark. I think I might scream in victory when I see a 17_ number!

after getting to 167 in march i'm now a whopping 182 *sigh*

Hey ladies! Don't lose hope, as we are all super close!

Love and Shell- Thanks for the kind words....we will all be in the 170's soon, and we will not allow ourselves back out!! Shell, you will be here in no time, and Love, this time for good is for good! I can totally relate, I was 171 in January, and I let it go. Dang. But once I am out I am never coming back!! And you aren't either- 175 sounds mighty good right now!!

Mish- 178!!! To he L L with that new scale! If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Hopefully the new one is wrong. I totally would have returned the new one on the premise that it was 'off'. Kuddo's to you for going with it!!

Amandie- Stick to it girl, and the 180's will fly by! WE all need to exit these 180's and go to 170's so that thread is not so dull!

Super- What's the new life style? Maybe I missed it somewhere....but you have to take control, and not let these 180's become a plague! I have been 178-182 for 6 months, and I hate it. You will pull through and get to those 170's!!

Riestrella- AHHHH! I will be screaming from the top of the roof with you! My scale is playing some serious mind games with me lately and I am so ready to say goodbye to the 180's its sick! Lets get out of here, serioulsy!

Lexi- I so feel your pain, I was sooooo close to the 160's but I slipped up and gained back the whole 170's. Let's commit to this and get out of here once and for all!

As for me....179.6 today, but I will take it. I've been staring at 18__ for too long. I have 113 days to see the 155, and I am bound and determined. Let's do this ladies!!! I just want to be normal weight again!

Hey Jaimie I now work in a very big school and my activity levels have sky rocketed. As well as going to the gym after work.
My body laughs at 1200 and raises me excrutiating hunger pains. I raised my calories to 2000 hoping to maintain for a while until I get a handle on my hunger then slowly drop down until I reach a levels that allows me to lose (albeit slower) but doens't leave me starving.

I gained a little bit, which I expected then I was maintaining on 2000 but (don't wan't to speak too soon) I think I actually may be losing, I'll have to give it another week though!

Congrats on 170's!! I hope it sticks. What is in 113 days if you dont mind me asking? I have an end of year goal to reach 150 although I will be happy with whatever as long as I am still losing/trying and exercising.

Congrats Jaimie! I'm at 181 lbs this morning. Sometimes I think that the scale will never move, but then I remember when I was 193 so I must be getting somewhere!

New scale 182
Old scale 177/8

oh my days!!!!!!

I've been hanging out between 187-188 for about a week or so now. I had horrible yesterday but also was walking/on my feet all day and got a good workout in so I'm hoping it's just a wash and I can move on from there.

Then this morning I woke up so stiff I can barely move from sleeping in a funny position (thanks to my daughter getting scared last night and then literally sleeping on top of me for the last hour or so). Hopefully it eases up as the day goes by and I can at least go swimming or something... I really want to get to 185 soon (just overweight then!!).

185.4 lbs this morning! I'm getting near halfway~

Finally I have had a very small budge the last 2 days. 179.2 this morning. Although its not what I have been hoping for, I will take it. I'm going to need a miracle to get back on pace with my goal. Waiting till staying in 170's for 3/4 days before moving threads.
