Topic: OT - I got a tattoo!
My daughter took me to her tattoo artist today and bought me a tattoo. This is my first one. My husband is still in shock! How many of you guys have tattoos?
Topic: RE: Call me Negative Nellie!
The first time I ever lost weight on my own...haha that sounds funny...but you guys know what I mean, I lost about 70#s and got down to a size 16. The new body image sure did go to my head! I went out a lot to clubs with friends...I drank almost every weekend...I was just a mess really. Good thing was I was single and wasn't hurting anyone but myself. I look back and I just cannot believe the ass I made of myself. I know a couple of friends still talk about "those times", I hate that but oh well we live and we learn (I think that's how it goes?).
Now, it's completely out of my system. This time I feel different about myself. I know I'm looking better & better but funny thing is I don't feel it all that much.
I think if this is the first time you've ever lost a large amount of weight...the new body image & feelings might make you go wild, the second time you just know better.
Plus, I don't want to gain weight by drinking.
Thanks for sharing this Terri.

Since your exercising so much, you may need to have a body fat percentage done. BMI is not a good measuring tool for people who carry a lot of muscle. (hugs)

I'm just 8 lbs from my goal weight. And, the loss has really slowed down. I want to loose that last 8 lbs gy my one year surgerversary. I will push myself harder to get there!

I am so excited to be able to take on the challenge of eating healthier in this time of year! Today being Thanksgiving, I have several kinds of foods set aside for me that are healthy and I can't wait to eat them. So, that being said, my goal for one year surgiversary is to weigh in at my personal goal: 170. That would be another 18 pounds. I am very sure that I will make it! I'm just greatful for being where I am. Now I have to work on maintenance and toning & shrinking this extra skin!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, MY FEB '06 FRIENDS!!!

Hey great idea!
My goal is to loose 25 pounds more by my 1 year anniversary
I am currently at 189 so really only 24 pounds but shoot an extra pound couldn't hurt
Well alright I know I need to loose more than that but it's a start.

At this point i am at a loss of what my goal should be. I weigh 173 but my trainer says i look 145 150...and he also said it would be near impossible for me to loste the desired 28 pounds i had wanted to to hit my goal. He says i could probibly only lose another 10 maybe 15 pound. my dr says i am healthy just the way i am....BUT I REALLY WANTED TO HIT GOAL...Dont get nme wrong i am exstrememly happy with wear i am. But you know they say most lose then bounce up I DO NOT want to bounce up from here. Im VERY happy at where i am right now. So I guess lets say for me 10 more pounds just to be safe...???... i dunno I ma 173 now so 163 i guess....
Im a size 8 so i would really like to be a 6 lol
