My Whoosh Happened!
 

Official weigh in today -- 219 on the DOT, 7lbs down from my weigh-in last week! I am so excited! Not only have I passed the 20lb mark, I am officially NO longer in the 220s! YAYAYAYAY.

Well, last week I weighed in at 226, which was actually a 2lb gain from the previous week. If I don't count that it's a 5lb whoosh, but I really don't care, I'm where I want to be! Thanks to you and everyone else, btw!

Congrats! That is a great woosh, you deserve it!

Congratulations! I know the scale has been drivin you nuts!

GAh thats an amazing whoosh. You must feel so good right now. Just remember it if you hit a point where you stall because it will happen again. Great job :)

I want one lol. Congrats.

That is excellent news, congratulations!

Please share your secret :) I think we all want a whoosh :)

Great job!

Congrats!!! Good job on hanging in there and believing in yourself even when the scale was not your friend.

Whoooosh! :woohoo:

YEAH!! :broc:
Congrats on the whoosh and saying goodbye to the 220's! :congrat:

I really just do basic watching what I eat/exercising. I set my limit to about 1600 and I eat mostly healthy things -- lean meats, nonfat/lowfat dairy products, fruits and vegetables, whole wheat and grains. I still pretty much eat what I want to, though; I just take the "bad" stuff in moderation. I don't drink anything with calories in it, and if I do it's nonfat milk, "diet" juices (like Trop50 OJ), or something like Crystal Light. I've always kind of felt like if I was going to consume calories, I'd much rather eat them than drink them! Another big thing I did was reduce the amount of alcohol I consumed -- I now only have a "wild night" like once a month, instead of having a drink every weekend and THEN having a "wild night".

Exercise -- I do cardio Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Tuesday and Thursday's for weight training, and Sunday's my rest day. Sometimes I might do Sunday as a cardio and Saturday as a rest day -- it depends on what's going on. I do the elliptical and/or treadmill or bike, and I do the machines for weight training because I'm not comfortable doing free weights yet.

So yeah, that's my secret. Nothing fancy, nothing stressful; just a pretty basic weight loss routine.

Awesome! great job :)

Nice job!

That's the biggest whoosh I've ever heard!! Congrats! I hope maybe that happens to me! Ahahaha. Totally unreal.

Wooohoooo!! Congrats girl!

Good work :)
