Congrats Bloomin! All weight loss counts.I was 159 this morning and 158 at my doctor's appt this afternoon.I am usually about 2 pounds more there.Hmmmm.I don't weigh everyday,but if I am 158 again next time,I will officially call it as I will have been in the 150s a week.So exciting because my goal is 145. Lots of kids sports this weekend and no celebrations planned around meals.That will be the first time in a few weeks.Weekends are tough for me.Happy Friday all! It is hitting 80 degrees where I am Friday.I have no excuse for not taking a long walk.

Well guys I" m calling it.I was 157.4 this morning.So moving on- 150s thread.See all( ok the very few) of you there. Goal weight here I come!

Miracle we will miss you but YAY on getting out of here!

So TOM has passed and as usual I have lost no weight. Luckily the bump I experience monthly as gone away but I had a rough week in terms of moderating my intake. Lol. I'm a garbage disposal when I'm on my period and I went back to work this week after the holiday for Chinese New Year so making sure I have all my healthy noms has been a challenge. 161.8 today. Im getting married (legally, no pomp) on March 14 and I'd like to be solidly in the 150s by then.

Congrats on your marriage Tinneranne! That's wonderful.I'm sure you'll be in the 150s on the big day.

:):) thanks.

I've been weighing in at 161.8 for....what seems like ever now. lol. Still following the 1400 calorie diet (more or less). I feel like I eat pretty clean...not much processed food, no soda, no alcohol, no caffeine, no animal products at home (I do eat dairy when I'm at a restaurant). Now that I write it out it sounds hella restrictive, but I don't really care for alcohol or soda and caffeine gives me anxiety... I would eat doritos for every meal of the day if I let myself though. Processed foods are delicious. lolol

Basically what I'm saying is that I'm pretty pleased with my eating habits, though I need to focus on more veg/protein and less carb.

In a typical work day I'm out of the house from 6am-6pm and I eat
- an apple with 2tbsp of peanut butter
- instant oatmeal
- a baked sweet potato
- baked broccoli with pasta/tofu/beans and brown rice
....and then whatever for dinner. hummus with cucumber, veg stir fry, refried beans and rice with avocado. depends on the night.

My weight loss is slooooooooooooowwwwww but I don't really feel like I'm giving anything up so I'm really hoping that this is just going to be the way I eat from now on. Maintenance is where I've failed in the past. It took three years for me to gain the weight I lost back, I can certainly spend a few months losing it. :):)

Hello ladies I did not reach my usual 0.4 lb drop this week. I only got 0.2 :/. I had TOM and had a lot of water retention issues, I usually weigh in on Wednesday, but I noticed I kept losing water like everyday so I decided to wait. I think I lost a 1.5 of water over the weekdays even though my TOM was basically over by Wednesday. :(

Anyway not impressed with myself, but I will be working super hard this week to 0.6 lbs by next week to catch up to where I should be! :carrot:

:hat: Wow congrats on you upcoming wedding tinneranne! Sounds like you have a great weight loss plan, I'm sure you'll make the 50's before the big day!

Thanks bloomin! Sorry to hear your week was less loss than normal. Maybe that means you're in for a satisfying whoosh next week!

I've been weighing between 161.8 -163 since February 19th and it is annoying me. Today was a 163 day. I'm still eating 1400 calories a day but ever since going back to work I haven't lost any weight. I am totally sedentary when not at work, at my job I spend half my time at a desk and the other half prowling the classroom...so more active but hardly burning loads of calories. For the moment I'm sticking with the plan, but if I don't see any movement in March I'm going to regroup and try something new. When I've lost weight in the past I've used a 1200 calorie diet and it worked but felt very restrictive. I should start encorporating exercise...I'm just being lazy. Looks like I'm not going to be making my goal of under 160 by the 14th. :(

Thankyou tinneranne, you were right I did have a whoosh. Monday morning and I'm already 166.4 which was my goal for this week. :D What a relief, I get insecure if I can't make my tiny drops. I figure I should be able to do this much.

Hope you whoosh soon too tinneranne!

Checking in way early again this week, already made my goal and passed it a little...at 165.8! Hooray :D

Sending you warm wishes for your big day Tuesday, tinneranne!
