wow, can't believe this is really happening!!

well, you guys probably (some of you anyway) remember how horrible my weight loss was last month (3 pounds the first week, 1 pound the second week, GAINED 5 pounds the third week and then lost that same 5 pounds the fourth week). anywho, i'm extremely close to my goal and for some reason i've lost a pound a day for the last 8 days!!! wth??!? that's 8 pounds in 8 days which puts me 9 pounds away from my goal! i thought our weight loss was supposed to slow to a crawl the closer we got to goal? this is sooo weird! i haven't lost weight this quickly since my first month out when i was losing a little more than a pound a day. (33 pounds in 26 days that first month.) so yeah, i just wanted to post this somewhere because i'm so happy about it and so proud of myself. YAY ME!!!!

That is awesome! I am so happy for you to be so close to your goal and not even a year out! WooHoo! I too experience weird periods of loss. Back in June, after months of losing just 4 to 6 pounds per month, I suddenly lost 9 pounds in one week and then 4 more the next for a total of 13 pounds lost in like 11 days. WEIRD. Then, this month the same thing happened somewhat. From last Sunday (9/2) to Tuesday morning (9/4), I lost between 3 and 4 pounds. Then, from Tuesday (9/4) to Thursday (9/6), I lost 3 more pounds for a total of 7 or 8 pounds in like 4 or 5 days. Now I know I'll probably not lose anything for a couple of weeks, but it feels GREAT when it happens! LOL HUGS! Lea

i'm so proud of you lea!! to be so far out and still losing like you are is FANTASTIC!!! it's so wonderful to see how far you've come. you're such an inspiration to me and everybody else in this group i'm sure
