The Final Countdown! And a poll.

Good morning! As of this morning, I am officially 3 lbs from my goal weight (which is the ideal body weight for my size). I honestly never thought I would get here! When I look back at my profile and see the amount of b*tching I did about not losing weight, etc., , I cannot believe it! Thank all of you so much for your support this past year and a half (almost!). In my heart, I truly believe that I would not have been successful without you guys! I may not make goal this weekend...or even next week. But that is okay because I have done a hell of a job. And so have you ALL! Now here is a poll for you... What is your goal weight...and how close to it are you? All my love, Jersey Mom

I was making a ticker this morning, and I don't realize how far I've come until I see where I am and where I want to go. My goal is 160. I was probably 160 at the age of 14... so I really don't remember seeing that number. I am 49 pounds from that goal... I feel stuck, even though I see my routine flucuations trending a little lower, which is a delight for me. Protien is a daily struggle. Exercise is a struggle, too, because even though I want to, I still talk myself out of it. How silly is that? I feel like I'm close, but when you aren't moving, it feels like it gets further and further away. Much love, Angela

I do the same thing with exercise! When house sitting I am 2 miles from my school's gym with the clothes on and everything and nothing! What the heck!?

Hey, I just posted pictures on the preggo board - I cannot update my profile for some reason. Take a look - toooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!! I am a long way from my goal weight ~ with good reason. My lowest weight was 189 and my goal was 175. I was 14 pounds from my goal weight. Although according to the charts I should weight about 150 ~ 175 was my personal goal. I felt great at 190 and if I stay under 200, I would be completely happy. I just hope to get under 200 before I get pregnant again. Ideally, I would like to be back to 190 and then get preggo again. We'll see. God Bless! Jen

Good news Jersey, congrats on reaching goal. My doctors goal was 150, mine was 140 so I'm 8 pounds under my goal at 132.

Jersey, you really have done wonderfully! Reading your success has really helped me these past few days. Thanks! I feel like I can drop these lbs. if I really put some effort into it! My doc's goal was 160, but at the last appointment he changed his mind. I have quite a bit of muscle, so my weight really isn't reflection of how I look. So he said I was fine. I'm about 163 on a good day, but I would like to lose about 10 lbs. by vacation. We'll see.... April

My original goal was 140 (which I reached in December).... I now weigh 125 pounds, and after my doctor gets my bloodwork back from the lab, she will then make a determination as to whether or not she thinks I am "underweight". This has been really strange for me... having people tell me I am TOO thin... I FEEL healthy and I like how I "look" (in clothes... without I look like a 90 year old wrinkly woman!) ~Teri~ 311/279/125

Good for you. You'll be there in no time at all. As of yesterday, I am 3 pounds below my doctors goal and only have 12 pounds to my own personal goal.

My goal weight is 175 lbs. As of this morning, I am 187 lbs. I have 12 more stinking lbs. to loose. Kay

Hey Jersey, I am about 7 pounds away from my Ultimate goal. I had set my original goal at 165 pounds. I said if I ever reach that I will have an ultimate goal just to keep on going. Well I met my personal goal and am on my way(very slowly) to my ultimate!!!Hope I make it there soon!! Take Car, Shannon
