Weekly Weigh-In...

Good Morning!! Well, I had initially wanted to be in the 140's by this weekend, and sadly I didn't make it. The weight has definately been coming off ALOT slower... at the same time I haven't been increasing my excersize either. But it's still coming off, albiet slow, but still going down. I lost one pound this week. ***CURRENT: 153 Starting: 250 1/1/06: 188 Goal: 140 -CJ

CJ, I think I'm going to just cut & paste your post & change the numbers, lol. My loss is ssslllloooowww, too! I did finally hit 170. I'd like to be in the 160's before my breast lift in two weeks. Not that 1 or 2 lbs will make any difference physically, but it sure will mentally. Juli

The mental thing is more than half the battle... that's for sure!!

Hey CJ!!! Yes, I understand that whole weight coming off a LOT slower thing. It's driving me nuts. I never thought I'd get to the normal category for my height, which is like 157 or something equally delusional. But I had wanted to be at 200 by my year out. I have been hovering crazy like around 220 for like 3 freakin' months. Last week I posted that I had lost weight after my nut escapade. Well, I failed to mention I was dehydrated from not drinking anything the entire day it took for me to drive home from NC, which was 12 hours. LOL So even though I was down to a dehydrated weight of 211, it bounced back again after I put much needed water into my system. So tonight I weighed in at 215. So honestly, I have no idea what my last posted weight was, I think 218. So will this stick? God only knows. I know that I have lost almost 140 pounds and I'm good here, even though my BMI still shows obese. oh well. I was at a BMI of 57, now it's like 33. Anyhow, I am going forward with plastic surgery and I am getting my arms done and my breasts lifted next month!!!! It's happening so fast it's staggering. So anyhow, I'm hoping that with removal of that skin, and then the LBL in December, I will get closer to that 200 mark. We shall see. I also posted a new pic on my profile, I'm the one on the right, obviously. LOL I hope everyone had a great weekend! Donna

Congratulations on your one-pound loss. That's excellent progress! This week, I entered the 220s for the first time in 13 years -- I am approaching my weight from the ex-boyfriend era. I saw him last year -- after being on WW for just 2-1/2 weeks -- I weighed about 304 then and I clearly wasn't ready. I hope these WW losses (up to 78) won't bring him back from the dead! LOL
