On my way to be 169 ;) by 8/1.:carrot:

I'm not sure what happened but I weighed and the scales reads 177 lbs. I don't guess it was THAT much water weight?


I will weigh again in the morning to make sure.

The scale says that I have lost 9 lbs. 1 more lb to go.

I'm very sad that it doesn't seem I will make it this month. I don't understand my body. It's very frustrating to hit a stall/slow down like this.

Stephanie- Don't beat yourself up! You have done great so far! You may not get there this month but you'll be closer and closer then ta-da, you'll be there before you know it! At 175 and 5'6, you must look smoking hot so any more lower is just a bonus. ;) (This is what I tell myself whenever there's a stall or whatever, haha jeez me and my mind games.)

:carrot: 175.3 this am!!! :carrot: I'm very happy because I have not been close to 175 since 2003! Oddly enough, I also feel a bit disappointed on how I got to 175.3 because even though I was within calories/points this week, it was mostly beer/booze and fried food (with a lot of water too, of course), I feel like I shouldn't have been able to lose that much. I really didn't expect to lose at all, just maintain. I'm sure this feeling will pass. Anyway, have a great weekend, all!

It's going to be ok. Don't beat yourself up about it. This is my 3rd or 4th "Lose 10lbs by __________thread". I didn't give up. I kept trying and everyone here on 3FC encouraged me. You can do it. Don't give up. :hug:

I'm so excited for you that you got down!!! And thank you! You know, I don't look too bad actually lol. Just got to keep going.

I definitely won't give up! Thanks for the support!

well the scale finally moved after my 3 and a half week stall....only a pound but i'll take it

Well, Miss Stephanie, I want you to know that you are one of the chicks whose consistent weight loss I follow and am impressed with. I second what Amandie said, and from how you describe your eating plan and work outs, I sense you are strong and fit and getting stronger and fitter All.The.Time. These could be factors. I know from personal experience that the lower your weight the more difficult (at least for me) it is to shed. When I look back to when I first started at 220, all it took was adjusting my diet somewhat and adding consistent exercise and I'd see a 2-4 lb. weight loss each week...for months! Even during TOM. Now, not so much. I've been active in several challenges since the end of May and have only dropped 6 lbs total. And ya' know what, if it's 6 lbs. I won't see again, then I'll take it. I just have to realize that my weight loss is different this time.

Someone on the boards wisely says that we're all an experiment of one and she is so right. In so many ways are bodies are a mystery. Control, adjust, and do the things you can. Be patient and trust your process. Wise words for me too! ;) You're doing great!

I really needed commiseration and a little pep talk right at this very moment. Thank you so much for that!!! It's hard to constantly be questioning if you are doing everything right, it's so nice to know (from so many on here) that I'm not alone, and in fact I'm very normal!

Finally broke my stall...aiming for only 5 pounds this month, don't know if i'll make it..

The scale says that I am 0.8 lbs away from my 10 lbs.

The Boston Baked Beans and Lemon heads did not help me with losing the 0.8lbs. Oh well.

Congratulations!

Start weight, current weight, would be happy with weight, goal for 8/1 weight.

I think I've encountered every possible thing that could make me hold onto water, LOL. I started doing an arm-toning program so my arms are sore EVERY DAY, I helped cut down a tree and carried logs for three days straight, I helped clean up after a hail storm here at my Dads house.. eating is totally OP, I'm just slow. Sad face, lol.

Oh well. I might still make it to my 'would be happy with' goal, which is fine by me. WI this morning was 178.2, so 177 could very well be tomorrow. And its only the 24th!! :D

Keep going everyone!!

I'm seeing the scale sitting rather close to the 160 mark this week, hopefully I can record something close to it for my official weigh in on Monday.

To everyone who met their goal, congrats! 10 lbs in one month is awesome.

Nope, ain't getting there.

Nearly 5lbs gone! I made my first 5% (from 190) and reached my "would-be-happy-with" weight for the challenge so now anything lower is just a bonus! :carrot:

This weekend is gonna be uber-busy, I have only packed two boxes so far but my mom and I do better under pressure anyway. We get the keys to the house on the 31st BUT we won't be moving in until the 4th because we need to have the hardwood floors done due to wear & tear, scratches, and some discolorations. Oh yea, some painting too. Easier to do when there's no stuff to move around or anything, y'know? Very, very excited!

PS- Keep going, everyone! You all are doing great even if you are not losing YET! Keep on plan and it will and HAS to come off!

So glad to be out of the 270s. Not sure I can make it to 266 by the end of the month but I am hoping to be at 268.

:crossed: Maybe I'll it to 175, that'd be sweet. It was my former-goal-weight, and seemed so small and far away at 27whatever... :lol:

Never know, I guess... I think I like setting crazy goals for myself, even though I know that I'm the slowest loser ever. LOL. Sigh. Must keep going.. :)

Looks like I"m back up to 177lbs. So, I have 2 lbs to go. I guess the Boston Baked Beans, Lemon Heads and Red Wine did it for me this week. *sigh*

Keep going, LA. WE got this!! We have the same stats right now! Lets get to 160 for me and 159 for you TOGETHER! :D Of course, my goal for that weight is pushed out to 'before thanksgiving' LOL, because I'm a slow loser, but I'll totally cheer you on. LETS GO!

:carrot:

Ok Kate. That's what I needed to hear. Thanks for the motivation. I am pushing forward. WE can do this!!! :carrot:

LOL @ before Thanksgiving. We will do this!!!!

Goooo Kate and LA! You guys can do this!

TexasYankee- You've done great! I bet you CAN make it to 268.X because you are at 269.2- so close!

Can't believe it is Friday already?! My "sis" (bro's gf) has convinced me to go out with her and a couple other friends to a... DANCE club! Normally I do not dance and I have never gone to a dance club before so I am a bit anxious but also excited. I will post a picture of what I'm wearing etc when I get a chance. >_<

Been taking a break from the internet in general, but wanted to come check in.

My goal was to loose 5 lbs. I have lost 8. I got a new scale in the middle of the month, so my stats don't quite fit with my ticker which I have altered to match the new balance beam scale which weighs me 3 lbs heavier than the old one did. I am so paranoid...like any of you are going to go check up on me. LOL.

Keep on truckin' ladies, and gentlemen!

Ok so I am down 5.4lbs and over the top happy!! I will keep pushing and see if I can get any more off in 3 days :))

So I am happy although I have no real updates.
I am still at 195 and I have not gained any weight. Which is a surprise because I have not been working out lately, but I have been eating really great. I can only imagine how much I would loose if I actually worked out.

I don't have another weigh-in this month (CW was taken on the 25th), so I'm not going to make my 5 pound goal. But I'm not complaining either, 243.5 ties me in with the lowest weight I hit last year. I'm only a pound and a quarter off, although if I hit my goal on the first I might count it anyway. ;)

I'll see how I can do next month! :carrot:
