Monday Morning Weigh In

Yay, Lori!! 4 pounds is fantastic!! And, I second the "7 months" thought! It has been pretty darn great.

Hi everyone! I decided to try to increase my calories starting last Thurs. and I lost 1-1/2 lbs. after my stall (I had lost 2-1/2 lbs. but one showed back up this morning). That's OK though--down is good. HW: 265 lbs. SW: 252 lbs. LW: 179.5 lbs. CW: 178 lbs. Have a good week everone!! Jen

Hey Jen...I agree that having the scale move down any amount is good!!

Good job!!! How much did you increase your calories to? I'm scared to, but may need to.

Hi Janie! I increased my calories to about 1200/day (really more like 1230 or so). I was eating around 900-1000 but decided to just see what would happen since I do exercise 6 days a week. It's kind of tough getting in all those calories, but I'm never, ever hungry anymore. I can't believe you're only 10 lbs. from goal. You've done fantastic--and running too! It's seems that the closer I get, the more anxious I am to be "done." Although I know we'll never be done, but you know what I mean. Jen

thanks Jen - I'm going to try increasing my calories by adding a protein shake. You're doing great by the way!!!!!!

Jen, Glad to hear you found something that worked for you and that you are on the downward spin again. Good luck this week! Lindy

Well- after a month at 147- during which I went up 6 pounds- I am happy to say I went down!!! HW- 250 SW- 241 LW- 147 TW- 144 That's 97 pounds and my BMI is 23.2. I posted 2 new pics- although I'm not sure I see a difference since the last one- but that's okay cuz I feel great!!! I'd really like to lose the last 3 to put me at 100- and then I'll be so close to the 130's- 2 more pounds- so maybe 5 more would be a good goal. Hope everyone has a great week- thanks for all the support!!! Holly

How awesome Holly!! I am sure you will have no problem getting those 5 lbs off!! Lookin good!!

Thanks Steph- you had another great week!!! Holly
