Hi Special Kay,
You are just the person I have been looking for... How did you get back on track
My heightest weight was 473
I got down to 181
but now I am back up to 224
I have been so depressed about it. What did you do to get your motivation back?
I could really use your advice.

I am glad I found your post today, it lets me know that I am not alone.

Oh by the way my personal goal is 175 also
Thanks,
Lynn

OK, I'll join you guys. Ugh. Kay, you helped encourage me to do this-thank you! I also am intimidated by all of you skinny grads!

I'm 5'2" and started with a 53.6 BMI-I was about as wide as I was tall, LOL! I was in a 26-28 pant, and a 28-30 top. Today my BMI is 33.7 and I'm in a size 8-10 pant and a 14 top. I love that.
Highest pre-surgery: 293
Lowest post-surgery: 183. Then, I started back into old habits and gained up to 191 in August.
Today: 184. Woo hoo!
Goal: 154 (that was my lowest high school weight)
Crazy dream goal, probably after plastics: 135

Hey! I think the average size for women in this country is size 12 now so you're a skinny minny too! Besides, losing a hundred pounds aint HAY!

You've lost 7 pounds since August too. I love it too...

Keep up the good work. Congrats!

Bad food choices and the stress of quitting smoking led me to gain - and go up to 150# last week. This week, after pushing my exercise regimine and cutting back on the crap I shouldn't have been eating in the first place (chocolate, too much chocolate) I'm back at 147.  Next weeks goal will be to see if I can get back below 147.  I'm 5'5 I SHOULD be able to get smaller and not look unhealthy... right?

Well, you ARE more healthy cuz you quit smoking even if you do dip alittle low on the weight...Doesn't really matter if you look unhealthy if you are healthy...

Great big applause for quitting smoking. My husband still smokes (he has for nearly 50 years) and it's NOT easy to quit...

Have a great weekend.!

I'm reminded that for me, 9th grade was a very long time ago(birthday this weekend. #50) ...I got out some old high school pictures and I weigh less than I did then for sure..

Awesome work. Keep it up.

Have a great weekend.
