Sunday Weigh In

Lisa and I are gonna move in with Inky soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't been on here for quite some time, as I haven't had many changes, still 10 pounds below goal at 130. total loss is 140 pounds. Have been maintaining this for about a month, do not want to lose anymore. At 50 years old and wearing a size 2-4, I don't want to look too thin. If anything, everyone is worried that I have lost too much weight. Also, has anyone heard about our bones weighing more than a normal persons'? Apparently, when we are MO for a long period, our bones get more dense because of the extra weight we carry. So when we lose a significant amount of weight, the bones still stay dense, so even though I weigh 130 pounds, most people think I weigh a lot less, and it's because of my extra dense bones that add weight to me. I am forever saying but I weigh this, and it isn't too thin on a BMI or weight chart. But I bet if my bones weren't as dense as they are I might weigh in the teens or 120's. that is another reason why we might be a size 4 at 130 but a normal person might be a size 8 at 130. They're bones aren't as dense as ours.... Just my thoughts and observations Jody

10 pounds below goal.........how fantastic is that!!!!!!!! never heard the dense bone theory but it sounds good to me.

Hi all, Great to hear how everyone is doing. I am at the same weight this week - between 123-123.8...pretty much same as last week but not as low as I was 1 month ago. I realized I have really increased my intake on some days...I can eat alot more than I used to and per my docs recommendations, I did increase my calories and carbs, so this is likely why my weight loss has stopped. I should be happy but I liked being a few # thinner! Oh well, I HAVE to be happy with my appearance and get over it. 3# lighter means NOTHING compared to the #121# I have lost this year. AND, I rode my bike for the first time in years with my kids for several miles and THEY tired out before I did! AWESOME! Take care all!
