  • i tell you what i am tired of....my pants fitting lose in the waist and legs, but if i try to go down a size, they are tight enough, that my upper waist billows over and pokes out. i actually had a go buy a belt this weekend to keep my mid-rise jeans up. but looking at the legs of them, they look baggy. it is hard to be sexy in baggy jeans. lol. but on a good note, i did get a date with a guy i work with who texted me and told me i looked hot!!!

  • Lumifan- I hear ya about the pants. My butt on my jeans are saggy and I can pull them down without unbuttoning them, YET, I cant fit in the next size down?!?!? I just dont understand that lol.Oh well. Im sure I will be in the next size down soon enough! WTG on getting a date with a hot guy!! Let us know how it goes lol
  • ahhhhh thank you la3y_un1c0rn and purple crush. thanks for the support. it does mean so much to me. I can't beleive i have this date with this guy. i think i am going to blow it because i have been texting him all the time. but he keeps the conversation going even when i am trying to end it. i'm afraid he's going to think i am needy. i am just excited. this is the first date since my husband and i split 2 years ago. i'm trying to play it cool the rest of the week, although my car broke down last night and he said he'd give me a ride home tomorrow after his air shift if i needed him to. he's so sweet but im so afraid i'm going to blow this before sunday even gets here.

    (and we thought the only thing we had to worry about was our weight?!?!?)

    oh, and today i weighed in at 171.8. almost officially 25 pounds down and still fitting into my 16's bummer
  • You have to give us all the news after the date...for us who no longer get to go out and have fun....lol
    I have had two weekends at home. I and ready for my trip to the mountians..
  • Well...I weighed in today and im DOWN 4.2 lbs!! I cant belive it. 4 lbs in one week! I havent seen that much gone since I first started LOL. Its nice to see after all these 1lb loss weeks!!

    Have a great day!
  • I'm down 1.6 lbs. I wish the tickers put in decimal increments. Only 18.4 lbs to go. I am really excited about this. This past week has been my first official week and I didn't stick to it as planned so hopefully this next week will be an even greater loss.

    Good luck on your date. I am sure it will be fun and you will make such a great impression.

    Good luck to all you ladies and gents on reaching your goals. I know we can do this!!!
  • Good job ladies!!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!
  • Hi everyone--I'm new here--this is my very first post! I'd like to get in on this challenge too! My goal is to lose 10 lbs. by July 4. I'm finally ready to get serious about losing weight and getting healthier. I know I can do the 10 lbs.--I recently lost about that much when I went on vacation with my family last June, but then I gained all of it back again (being around all that tasty food on the cruise we went on didn't help).

    I'm so glad I found this place!
  • I have 14 lbs. left to lose, so count me in. I am having difficulty getting this last weight off, but I will try my best. I will be having a hernia repair this month and hope it doesn't negatively affect me too much. I appreciate the opportunity to try to lose this weight with everyone else. Good luck to All
  • Lumi- No worries... You will not blow the date just be yourself... You don't seem to be neaty just cause ya'll text eachother alot.. You figure if you don't keep the conversation going then he'll think you don't wanna talk to him... He like you for you and keep it that way As for the jeans, I have the same promblem... My thighs and butt are small And my tummy is big. So I never really have a good fit with jeans,especailly after having to kids and tons of strech marks and to top it off weighing 205 at birth, So all that extra fat just haggin there...

    Purple crush, what are you doing to loose that wieght, I;m so jealous
    well ,ladies just wanna say good night and ya'll doing such a fantasic job!!! Keep it up and drink your water
  • LILLY-Girl you and I are exactly the same weight. I weigh 159 and I wanna get to 145 Yo can do this and stay positive
  • Jelly- All im doing is Pilates, my stepper thing and some workouts on the On Demand channel. They have a Miracle mile walk(or something like that) and you walk a mile in 16 mins!! Its fast pace and I LOVE IT!!! I also do weights and stuff on my body ball. But thats all..I dont go to a gym...I do it all at home. If I can do it.. ANYone can lol
  • I am closing this thread, ladies, since there has been another started.
