joining the thread - celebrating a small loss
 

Hello all,

CJZee - thanks for starting the thread! Glad to join you as a companion in moving out of the 230s.

I'm new to 3FC. Recently turned 39 and my goal is to be fit by 40. Also, in June I was told I am prediabetic by my doc which is a real motivator.

I am celebrating today my first loss and first time changing my ticker :carrot:

Only .4 down but progress is progress! Hoping I can be out of the 230s in September at some point - only 3.4 pounds to go. I'm low carbing it (not super duper low carb like keto, just moderate - little to no bread, pasta, sugar, potatoes, limiting wine to 2 glasses a week, etc) and have joined the YMCA. Last night was my first YMCA workout (45 minutes on the elliptical and stair climber while jamming to my favorite upbeat music) and I remembered how working out helps me to feel more energetic, focused, alive, etc.

Hi Cecilia_Joy!
I actually just started a new "Getting Out of the 220's" thread this morning as my scale showed me just slightly below the 230 mark! I take what I can get on that scale. I will try to keep an eye on your here in this thread, and hope to see you soon in the 220's thread. I'm going on a long trip this month so do not know what that will do with my weight loss.

Welcome! CJ

Hello, today I just hit 239 woohoo! I hope everyone is getting closer to their goals, we got this!! I have a tendency to lose fast at first, and I have only been at it for less than a week. Hopefully I can hit the 220s in a about 2 weeks. I’ve done this before and I will do it again:)

Hey CJZee, i am so happy you can do it, i hope i can hit it as soon as possible with it. Thanks for sharing!
