ladyfat: Congrats making it to the 170s!

Woke up this morning and to my surprise I was 172.8!! This seems to be how it works for all my decades...the first 5 pounds DRAG and the last 5 lbs I fly through! So let's hope that I lose this next 3.0 lbs as fast as I did the past 2! 163 puts me in the overweight category for my BMI...I can't wait to be OVERWEIGHT! :)

169 guys!!! :carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot:

Yeah!

gonna miss you guys... hurry up and get to the next thread "getting out of 160's"

I have been on just about every 170's thread we have had over the past few years. I wish I could say good-bye forever ... I was in the 160's a couple of days ago and today bam 172.2

Omg!!! Congratulations cheesecakebrownie!! A graduate! So happy for you!! :D

Nicholsfamily-wow. You're flying through. Do you work out a lot or have a crazy active job!?

Aww Rennie. We're in this together to get out for good!

171.6 today.

thanks Hiheart... stilll loitering here, you know, just in case... I had a cupcake last night.. okay 2, but they were small.

Yum. Last night I had peanut m&ms. I always make sure I save calories for some sweets once or twice a week, just as long as there's only 1 or 2 servings!

HIheart, thank you you're so close to being out of here. I keep flip flopping, smh.

LOL CheeseCake and HIheart, that's why I can't get out of here because I'll have a cupcake, a few cookies, some crackers ... when will I learn :nono:

After ten days of being at 170, I have dropped that pound. Off to the 160s ......no offense, but I hope I don't see this thread again :)

PQ, see you over "there"

hope to see everyone else there soon!

Hey Everyone!

HIheart: I count calories and exercise 3-4x per week! 1200-1550 in calories. I am a extremely big EATER..i love my food! And I have lost before 80 lbs only to gain them back. My thing is I get a majority of my calories from cokes (probably close to 500-600 calories per day!) so once I drop them my weight usually comes off pretty fast. It's not hard for me to lose weight..it's hard for me to KEEP it off! :( So once I get it off this time I'm going to go to an nutritionist and see if I can get some extra help this time.

This morning 172.8 still. I'm fine with that because I have hit my gw for the month and probably won't hit the 160's until the 2nd week of august! We will see though! Hope everyone has a great night!

Ooh, don't you hate that? I bounced back up into the 180s temporarily, and now my body seems to have decided "well, you wanted to get into the 170s so bad, why don't you just hang out at 179 point something for awhile?" Good luck! Hopefully it's just water weight and will drop back off soon!

I seem to be starting to see a pattern with my weigh ins… I stay stuck at a certain weight (really within a range of +/- 1 pound either side) for ages (7-10 days!!) and then have a day or two of drops and then perhaps tiny bounce up then stay at the same number again… it's frustrating and a bit anxiety inducing that I won't make it to the "drop" period!

I'll be away for a week and hope to come back with a lower 170s number - and hope to see most of you on the low end gone! Congratulations to everyone who got out of the 170s recently! Hope to see you in the 160s threads soon :)

ladyfat, yes I do ... that's what I'm doing now. I'm up to 174 now. Hoping to kick start myself this month by doing my own shakes in the mornings and for dinner. I will eat a sensible lunch when I get home from work but I will take a prepared shake with me just in case I get super hungry before I get back here. There are a ton of places that I pass on the way home, so it's not good to be hungry ;) Wish me luck. I'm gonna start Wednesday probably. I'll keep you posted :)

I struggle with 3-4 good days and then blow it by eating,or should I say gobbling up an extra 1000 to 2000 calories at on sitting,ugh. Staying right at 169 now for 2wks. Glad you are all honest ,it makes me feel more normal in my struggle.
