  • Hey, guys. I'm Penny. I NEED to get down out of the 170s and into the 160s. I'm so tired of the 180s and 170s. It has been way, way too long!

    178.8 today, but TOM arrived so...probably up tomorrow.

    Quote: I often have a stall at the end of a "decade" as well. Shoot, I thought I was going to scream every time I hopped on the scale one day to "179" and the next "180" and back and forth for a couple of weeks.
    I totally get this too. When I approach only a couple pounds left in a decade, it skips around there forEVER. Not fun. I don't know why it does that.

    I noticed, via my ticker, I have officially passed the halfway mark.

    Congrats MauiKai! At your height you must look amazing.

    Awesome Penny105! You're on your way!

    No, at my height I still look fat. I don't start looking better until between 150-160.
  • Welcome Penny! I so know how you feel.

    Third week in a row at 177.4. GRR!
  • 178 today. Surprising since I'm in my TOM.

    MauiKai, congrats on being over halfway there!

    Thanks, Chubabub! I hope I'm on my way! You're almost out of here - hopefully I'll be at the end of the 70s soon, too.

    Thanks for the welcome, NNS! Yep, that bounce up and down and end up at the same weight for like two months is always fun. Here's hoping we both break out of the 170s soon!
  • 172. Apparently the 'almost out of the 170's bouncing' starts now...
  • The 170s have been the absolute worst 10 lbs I have had to get out of, literally everytime I get around 171, I lose it and start gaining.

    Weighed myself today at 174.5 and so depressed about it.

    I have started cooking myself and have stopped eating out but of course still gaining, not sure what else I'm supposed to do. blah
  • Just popping in to say hi! Hoping to be joining you guys this week!!
  • I was 170 when I weighed this morning! I was nude and hadn't eaten yet though (so I'm a little hesitant to believe that's exactly where I'm at). I still did a little happy dance when I saw it though .

    slowly but surely I will get into the 160s again
    key for me is exercise. I feel better already.
    Good luck everyone
