Ok, I sort of got fed up with the whole weight-loss thing and ditched my scale for almsot a week. Ditched exercise too, and had some indulgent moments. Luckily my basic diet seems to be working ok. At 151.8 today, damn I want to say goodbye for the 150's but I'm afraid I'll have my TOM before I get there lol.
LionessWhispers, thank you! And oh dear, it sucks so much to get stuck. I think some of us lose so consistently all the time, little by little, and some of us need to wait these little plateaus out to see a bigger drop later.
I'm at 148.8 today. If I manage to stay under 150 until friday, I pronounce myself "graduated". Of course, I'm expecting my TOM on Sunday so I might easily just be totally bloated on friday :P
Ugh this week hasn't been going my way. Why oh why can't I get focused? Ugh.. My TOM appeared today though so maybe that has a little to do with it. I hope so anyway lol
Great job pigeon! You sound well into the 40s!! You're doing great!

Well my weight gets WAY up towards the first day of TOM, on which it still leaps about 2lbs up. So I wouldn't worry too much LionessWhispers, you might just be in for a mighty swoooooosh!
So I'm doing the 30DS, just did my first day of level two, and still stuck in the mid-150s. Crossing my fingers for a decent whoosh when TOM leaves me in a few days. Anyone else out there trying to get out of the 150s? I'd be happy for some company haha
Hi Lioness. I'll join you!!! You are doing great. Keep it up!!!
After gaining and losing the same 10 pounds for the last year I kicked my butt into gear this summer and am back on track and heading towards my goal once and for all. I weighed 154.7 this morning which is 1 pound more than my lowest weight ever as an adult, which is awesome, but because these pounds have been with me for so long I feel like I'm losing super slow. I'm doing my best not to get frustrated with it, as I am really starting to see the changes in my body. I fit into a size 8 jeans yesterday when I was out shopping. 8! I've never worn a single digit size pants....ever. So, heck yeah. I'm finishing this thing once and for all (even if it takes me 4 months to lose the last 15 pounds).
I'm new here, long time lurker though. Been trying to lose since 3/3. Today i finally hit the 40# mark, weighing in at 158.6... Can't wait to see 140ish. Been gaining and losing the same few pounds for well over a month so was happy to see something other that 161 lol.
Hi Veloria
Congrats on fitting into a size 8!! That's amazing! It's nice to meet someone on this journey and I feel you on the slow losing. Way to go on your NSV though! I personally like those even better than the scale because no one sees the scale except me haha
I once told myself I'd never see the 150s again. Imagine my surprise when last month I started to NEAR see the 160s! With that said, I never really ventured outside the 20 somethings threads upon my return until today, and this seems like the perfect spot to make home.
I weighed in at 151.4 this morning, which is much better than the 158.8 I was at last month, haha! Hopefully this number sticks though. I'm ready to move onto the next "decade" alreadyyy!
