Current weight: 299.6lbs
Obviously I am not in onderland, and unfortunately the only term I know for where I am is still morbidly obese. However, I am still very happy! Before January I resigned myself to being fat always, which made me sad, and in turn I ate too much as comfort, making myself heavier. On January 6th I was told to lose 50 lbs. But I didn't start then. I, instead, was angry and refused. On January 19th, I threw my hands up in the air and said fine I'll try. Luckily coming to groups like this has kept me so motivated. I am not at the 50 lbs yet, but I am in a much better place of mind, and want to thank all of you for that.9 -

Congrats on reaching TWOTER TOWN!
. I remember when I finally broke 300. It was this impossible number that I use to fluctuate between. Around 300-330, then finally, BAM! 299! It felt amazing. You probably feel the same. Keep on trucking, you’re doing TWO-RIFFIC! 3 -

Overall starting to feel better(no more chest pain!) Bowling was fun today! Go a new high score(for me) of 137, and another game had my first double in the last frame!

Results for March Week #3
Team The Butt Theory had a respectable week. We lost 18.8 pounds, which was good enough for a 0.35% loss, and third place (0.44% for first).
Individually, our very own @Tracie_Lord came in third overall with a loss of 2.37%!! Congratulations, Tracie!!!
The following are the top seven Big Butts for the week:
@Tracie_Lord - 2.37%
@brandi_84 - 2.16%
@eatingfoodles - 1.97%
@kidkees - 1.07%
@lozenger1984 - 1.03%
@Bradleys8299 - 0.91%
@prehistoricmoongoddess - 0.90%
Well done to these seven as well as to anyone else who lost weight during the third week of March!!
Currently, team The Big Theory is first overall!!! I know it changes moment by moment, but if we all kick it up a notch, we could come out as the Biggest Losers for the month!! Let's do it, team!!8 -

@Jl20alon2564, congratulations on losing almost six pounds this week and leaving the three's FOREVER!!! I love Mike's designation of TWOTER TOWN, so welcome to TWOTER TOWN!!! For the sake of your health, I am so glad that you decided to give it a try, as opposed to giving up!! Your first goal of 50 pounds lost is not that far off!! I would say that January 19th is now your lucky day and I feel honoured to be a part of your journey.3 -
The April thread is up and running. Please take a moment to pop over there and introduce yourselves to the new team mates that will be forthcoming. If you know you are not going to continue into April, please let me know!! I do not want to have to chase you down for the next two weeks, looking for a weigh-in!!
@drea2011, @aminor55, now's your chance to register for April if you would like to officially return to The Big Butt Theory.
@karrihowlett, @mickey10111, you will be automatically rolled over into April as I have been transferring your weight over. If you could pop back on here around the 29th or 30th of March and give me an updated weight that would be appreciated. Your starting weight for April should be accurate, and not the one from a few weeks ago.2 -

@brandi_84, considering you lost four pounds last week, holding steady this week is a win! Keep pushing forward and the number on the scales will drop again in no time!!2 -
File me into the category with everyone else who had been sick 😷
I’m also going to be away for half of this week so my goal is to just get rest in hopes of getting better (although I am very stubborn and had to talk myself out of going to the gym). So this will be a big ol ‘no week’ for me on the mini challenge.
I have been tracking and keeping my calories under goal so hopefully my week isnt a total loss.
Since I will be gone I am going to weigh in early this week, on Wednesday, instead of my regular Friday.2 -

@erikNJ, I hope you feel better by the end of the week so you can enjoy your time away.1 -
Week 4 – 3/25 – Mini Challenge
Logged Food: yes
Under Calories: yes
Exercise: yes – did 59 minutes of walking
NSV - I did not indulge in the cookies this week brought over by neighbor. I also had a check-up with doctor and new blood work, she said I did not have to get the cholesterol checked because was good last time (6 months ago). Lastly, I am finally seeing the doctor every 6 months with hopes of eventual once the year. She also answered some of my questions with eating healthy, and told me to not focus on the amounts (I will continue to stay within in my calories and continue to read labels but not worry about 1 gram or 2 of saturate fats, as this is in even healthy meats, etc.) so much, as long as eating healthy and making good choices, weight loss will happen.4 -

3/25/19 Mini Challenge
Logged: Yes
Under: Yes
Exercise: Yes, 45 minute walk.
I didn't go to the gym this morning before work. I wanted to judge how I felt working and everything. I felt pretty good, so I went to the boardwalk (about a 10-minute drive from work) and walked the whole thing to the end and back. I didn't have an extra layer, so I was quite chilly(windy and cloudy), but I felt good! Spoiler shows some of the pictures I took on my walk!
