How is everyone's February?

Since many of us had a hard time last month, I was wondering how this month was going. I am doing much better this month, but I think the biggest change was me. I am trying to remember the guidelines that were helpful initially and trying to avoid the candy that got me slacking in the first place. Last month I only lost 4 lbs, but so far this month, I've lost 8. My doctor has said it will only get slower, so we just gotta press forward. Good luck and God bless to everyone.

well i didnt loose for 2 weeks then this past week dropped 2 lbs so i hope im back to looseing 2 per week what ever happens happens ... i am doing the best i can! lisa

Hey, we all have our ups and downs. The point is we continue to try. Congrats on the 2 lbs. I only lost 4 lbs in Jan, but am up to 10 in Feb. Funny how that happens.

I always go the 23rd to the 23rd. So... a couple more days to go. Thus far I've lost 11 lbs. this month. 9 of them were right in a row about 3 weeks ago, then almost 3 weeks of nothing. I do know, however, that I am losing inches. I played about 2.5 hours of racquetball yesterday, something that I would have never been able to do before. I think I've lost another 2 inches off of my hips this month- YAY!!! But, I am still waaaaay heavier than most of the other Junebugs. It doesn't surprise me that for others it has slowed down more because they are much closer to their goal weight. I still have about 67 lbs. to go to reach my personal goal. Right now, I just can't wait to hit Onederland!! Hopefully by spring break. We'll see... I am happy because I've lost 115 lbs. since surgery, 140 lbs. since my highest. I'm going to stay the course and not get too discouraged. It'll happen when it happens! Hope you all are having a great day! Hugs, Kerri

Wow , I think you've done great. I find my loss come in spurts too.

i go from the 1st of the month til the end of the month. i have lost 4 lbs so far for february. i would like to lose 1 more lb this month, but won't complain if i don't. what am i going to look forward to once i reach goal??? i am 5 lbs away from the century club! i am 6 lbs away from goal! so, i thought if i could lose 1 more lb before the end of the month and then maybe lose 5 lbs in march...i would be at goal by my 10 month anniversary! only time will tell... hugs~mary jo 221/126/120???

Hey girl! You will get that other pound. I am so happy for you.

well dang it kelli. i gained 2 lbs back this week! GRRR but not going to let it keep me down! on day at a time, one lb at a time! hugsssssssss

Mary Jo What will your BMI be at 120? I am still trying to figure out what a realistic goal is for me. I am 5'6 1/2. Right now I weigh 150 pounds. I am shooting for 138. My BMI right now is 24.2---which is a normal BMI. Most people keep telling me that I look good right now. So what BMI are you striving for? Maybe this can help me figure out if I should be setting a lower goal. Let me know---You look great girl---love those tone arms! I have the loose skin action going on with my arms! Send some luck my way---perhaps they will tighten up overnight! Di

hey di! ok, at 120, my BMI would be 21.9. that's kinda right in the middle of normal. i try not to focus too much on that damn number on the scale, but i set my goal at 120 and i just want to reach it! i also have been giving plastics a lot of thought. my tummy is horrible! i want to see a PS and if the price is right, i might try to do a TT or mini tt when i get my taxes in 2007. i didn't want to spend the money, but i will never be happy with myself looking like this. so we shall see! ok, well if you get your arms to tighten up overnight, then i want my tummy done overnight too! LOL hugsssssssss
