Congrats to Angelica Fruitcake and hhm6! Way to go to get out of the 180s!! I was at 182.4 this morning. My TOM is all kinds of messing with my weight. Hoping I get a little whoosh afterwards that gets me at least closer to the 170s!

Good evening! My name is Sarah! I hit 189.7 last night! YES YES YES! I am pumped to reach 179 now! CAN'T WAIT! I hope to be at 180 around the middle of April!

You're so close!!! Yes TOM does mess things up but it's also a few days after that I usually see a drop!

Ahh thats awesome!! That's an amazing feeling!!!

I just hit 179 this morning and it feels unreal!! I haven't been this weight since high school, but I'm hoping it stays at 179 tom too. I tend to yo-yo in the 179-181 range.

Good luck to all you gals!! We are doing great!! :)


Oh and one more thing, at what weight do you guys actually see a difference in the way you look? 20lb?? I haven't seen a noticeable drop in my weight yet (physically), no one else has either. I mean I'm so happy the scale is going down, but it'd be nice to be down an inch or two as well!

Jennifer1966 03-22-2013 06:57 AM

Great job, Sara!

I was at 181.4 this morning, so I'm close. Come on 170s!!

Angelic Fruitcake 03-22-2013 08:25 AM

You're almost there Jennifer! :cheer2: :cheer3:

Looks like a number of you guys are getting to 180. I haven't checked in fr awhile. Yesterday was my first solid back on track day I've had for a few days now. No morning weigh ins for awhile. Ill weigh my official Monday. But I just hope to be at ticker weight with last weeks anti- progress. Glad to see so
Much success. Quite inspiring!

NorthernChick13 03-23-2013 04:23 PM

You guys are doing AMAZING! I saw 187.8 this morning! AHHH!!!! I can't believe it! Well, I guess I can. and I should! lol I am just so darn proud of myself!

Jennifer1966 03-23-2013 06:16 PM

NorthernChick: That's fantastic! You are really doing well!!

I was at 181.2 this morning! Maybe tomorrow it will be 180._?? Hopefully by my "official" weigh in day (Monday), I'll definitely be there!

Jennifer1966 03-26-2013 08:26 AM

Well, today was 180.8. The scale is moving so slowly! I really need to cut down on carbs and salt.

EliseVi 03-26-2013 11:59 AM

Jennifer, you are so close!!!

I guess I won't be getting to 180 by the end of this month. :-( I am 184 today. I'm amazed it's not worse. I had a friend in town for a looong weekend and I drank more than I have in ages. Plus, lots of late-night dinners. Well, all I can do is buckle down today and for the coming weeks.

Hey everyone! I am currently working on cutting out those little extras, like staff room treats and Easter chocolates at the receptionist's desk at school! I've had lots of little treats recently and I am working on staying on plan. I saw 188.8 this morning, so definitely a wee bit of water weight. STILL THRILLED TO BE IN THE 180'S! I saw a thread the other day about someone's weight loss slowing as they were around 183 or so. I was all "I wonder what will happen when i weigh that little". Then i was all OMG I ALMOST DO! hahaha I forgot I was in the 180's! Definitely a fun feeling!

You ladies are doing FANTASTIC! Keep it up!

wannaBfitnessbuff 03-26-2013 02:01 PM

NorthernChick- YOU ARE doing amazing girl. That's so fun to have this number that seems so small and realize you are in that decade and a mere few pounds away!

Saw 183.0 this morning. I expect it may jump back up because it was quite the whoosh. But it made me think I could be seeing the next decade with in the next few weeks. How exciting! In the last few years the 170's have been the place where I get stuck and stop losing. And they do feel so good when I'm in them compared to when I'm chillin in the 180's. At the top of the 180's I almost need a new biggest size (at 190 I did buy a pair of work pants in the biggest size I have ever had to purchase) then mid to low 180's the highest size in my closet fits and this is a reason I sometimes get stuck here. But the bulk of my clothing doesnt fit until I get into the mid 170's. I spent most of the last 5 years between 172 and 178. So most of my cloths are that size. Which in the last two years (since first popping into the 180's) is the lowest I have been able to mamage in the past. I get to the 170's and can wear most of the clothing in my closet and I get complacent. I know the 170's are not my goal. But it's a relatively comfortable weight. I cant believe I'm getting so close to back there. Back to my old normal. I cant even imagine seeing the 160's. It has been so long since I have. And that may be where I find my goal weight! Sorry long rant. The whole decade idea had me thinking. I cant believe I am getting close to moving into another one!

I so so want to be 180. I don't think I've been 180 since I was in high school!
I am leaving to go overseas for a 4 month internship in just over two months and while 18lb might be a tad unrealistic for 2 months, I'd love to try. But am ecstatic to be 198 and back in onderland!

Jennifer1966 03-28-2013 09:44 AM

I was at 180.6 this morning. My weight loss since 182 has been glacially slow! I have to stop eating so many carbs if I ever want this weight gone!

Jennifer1966 03-29-2013 08:42 AM

Finally! I was at 179.8 this morning! I think it's time for a getting to 170 thread!
