    Hello everyone. I’m excited. Today I weigh 305.8. Looking forward to entering the 200’s very soon. 😀
    Is anyone else within 5 or 10 pounds of leaving the 300’s? 😎

    Congrats!! I too can hardly wait to reach the 200's as well. I have a little farther to go than yourself. Still 9.8 lbs away but looking forward to two-topia.

    Hello Debbie. Thanks. Unfortunately, I’ve gained about 5 pounds, and now I too am 10 pounds from “two-topia.” I weigh exactly 310 today.

    So far today I’ve eaten an entire large cantaloupe, 1 banana, and 1 small .65 oz bag of skinny pop popcorn. Hope it hasn’t caused me to gain more weight. I’ll try to have a light dinner. But I’m craving spaghetti and “meatless” meatballs. 😋

    I started in February at 320. I am currently 287. I am fighting for every lb. My bp is much better but my cholesterol and triglycerides went up. I have adjusted some macros to see if that will help.

    Hello Lily Pearl. You’re doing well with your weight loss. You’re in the 200’s now.. 👏 I’m jealous.

    I've been waiting a couple of days to report. Alas, the scales went up some 2-3 lbs.

    On the upside, watching the Olympics, especially women's gymnastics, has motivated me to stretch/do ballet stretches again, in addition to my under-desk bike exercise. Gymnastics and track and field remind me of my childhood sports achievements as I am bridging the 50-year gap (mostly mentally :)).

    Struggling to enter the 200’s before September 1. Today I ate:

    1 large bowl of Malt-O-meal hot cereal with some sugar on top. 1 banana, 1 cup fresh blueberries, 1 entire can of Goya Garbonzo beans, 1 can of Campbells vegetarian vegetable soup, and 2 premium saltine crackers. Hope I didn’t overdo it again.

    We’ll see what the scale says tomorrow.

    Good morning All....

    @7freshflowers ... that's exciting! Reaching intermittent goals is so exciting! You got this!

    The "thought" of having to lose over 100 pounds (150 for me!) is very intimidating. Every time I would start a new diet plan I always felt defeated before I even started due to the number of pounds I need to lose. Patience has never been a strong attribute of mine! LOL! I am trying really hard to just focus on the intermittent goals this time.... whether it be a number on scale, a new size in clothing, or walking further on my walking pad each day. And, its helping me stay focused. I am down 56 pounds since Feb 24th and still feeling motivated. Only 94lbs to go!!!! :)

    Stay Positive!!

    I'm 11lbs away from that 300 lb finish line. Well, maybe not a finish line, more like a pit stop. Lol.

    You’re awesome! I really like your attitude and plan of action. You’ve lost about 10 pounds every month since Feb 24th. 👏

    Yes Lisa. 300 is just a “pit stop” but It will be a thrilling one. That’s for sure. 😀 👍

    How are you doing everyone? As of today, I’m only 6.4 lbs away from 300. My short-term goal is to reach 300 by SEPTEMBER 1st.

    Thanks for the chart. While I drink plain filtered water at work, at home I modify. I use sugar-free drink mix (5-10 cal per stick, preferably with Vit C) and dilute with Britta-filtered water for re-fill. I love color, so when a mix is super light in color, I add food coloring, think "Hawaiian Punch."

    I've been maintaining +/- 3 lbs, working 1-2 hours of underdesk-bike on the days that I don't go out. Also been tracking my daily protein.
