Hit my first goal!! 50 pounds down!

funkyspunky871

51 pounds actually!! Pay no attention to the goals in my signature. I just put those there to have something to work toward later. 50 pounds was my true first goal. My older brother was very skeptical about me actually losing weight. He told me that he'd believe in my efforts once I hit 50 pounds. Well.... TAKE THAT! Whoo!

Sorry, no pictures. You'll have to wait for those. I can't see a difference at all, so I don't want to post them...

Awesome! 50 pounds lost is an amazing milestone! I'm sure if you posted the pictures we would see a difference! I can't believe that you can lose 50 pounds and not be able to see a difference. Keep up the good work!

Let's see.... Checked my weigh-in list and I entered my starting weight on 2/22/10. So... 21 weeks? Is that right?

Fantastic!!! If you cant see a difference, get naked in front of a mirror..the mirror never lies and you will see it and be so impressed with yourself! I don't know you, but you are awesome! Just pick up a 50lb weight and you will not believe it! You will say to yourself..I can't believe I was carrying that around with me! You Go Girl!

The simplest way for you to see the 51 pounds lost is to put on clothing that was snug before or fit fine, and see how it is too loose now. Regarding how many weeks, that will be an average loss of ten pounds per month, as of July 22. Impressive! I have had an average loss of five pounds per month. You are doing fantastic, and I can't believe your brother would say something so hurtful to you. He must have insecurities himself to make him say something like that. Keep up the good work and be happy with yourself. :flowerforyou:

Keep up the good work! I am just getting started on this system. One of my Doctors recommended this website to help me track my food consumption. It seems to be a nice system. Prior to this I managed to lose 100 pounds on my own by watching what I ate and walking every day. Currently, I walk 4 to 5 miles per day, every day. This makes a tremendous difference in keeping your weight under control.

Aubrey2010

That's absolutely fantastic!!! Keep it up, girl! I can't understand why your brother would be so discouraging, but you obviously stuck it to him! Well done, here's to the next 50!

themommie

WOW, that is awesome. You should be so proud of yourself.Keep up the good work. If I took off 50 lbs I would be jumping up and down.......

Lilliesmom2010

WOW, this is a huge inspiration to me, I'm hoping to lose 45 lbs! I just started this on Thursday and I hope that you know how awesome you are doing!! That's no easy change of life and you're on an amazing path to a NEW life!!! Congrats!!

gillian_gail

Super proud of you :-) I think you're doing amazing. I can never see a difference in myself either, but that's cuz you see yourself everyday. I bet when school starts again, the people you haven't seen all summer will totally be able to tell. So happy for you, keep it up cuz you're doing great :happy: :happy: :happy: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Congratulations Emily! You are doing a fantastic job! I really wish I would have gotten started at your age. You are a true inspiration!!

Your brother is probably just jealous that you have the motivation to take care of yourself!
