    So, I weighed in this morning to see that I gained one pound. Normally I would freak out about his but I am fortunate enough to have read numerous posts about this in the past. I know that I m doing everything right. I have been eating at or under my calorie goal and I have been getting cardio and core training in multiple times a week. I am attributing the 1 lb gain to muscle gain or water weight. My water weight ratio is 52% which is high for me. So I could also attribute the 1 lb gain to that time of the month. Part of me wants to freak out but I am not going to. The fact is, my clothes fit looser and I feel more fit and lighter on my feet......suck that bathroom scale. :) so right now I'm at 11 lbs lost and my current weight is 139.8.

    Had gained a couple of pounds over the last 2 weeks (had a major meltdown and went on a mini-binge) but have been back on the wagon this week, working out and eating right. I feel better and lighter, but Dear Lord, I am NOT ready to hop back on that scale. So I'm just gonna go with a NSV this week of feeling more like more old (pre-meltdown) self. :bigsmile:

    128.5 this morning on my old scale (the one I've used so far for my weigh-ins) so that's a 1.5 loss, yay! I have a new scale that puts me at 129.2 this morning, so I'll use that one from here on in.

    NSV - yesterday I was clothes shopping and my size is now 6 in dresses and the tops I was fitting were S or one was even XS!!! I'm loving this!

    Ok I'll kick off this week.

    Last sat I had a minor put on so went back to 96.5, over this week that has gone and I am back down to 95.1 so that makes it a 1.5kg loss. Am yet to measure

    Wooohooo! That's fantastic! Way to go!!!!

    197!!! I have lost 20 lbs and am officially out of the 200s!! I am so happy I could cry. Today is feeling like a good day - I think I want more days like this. It gives me the motivation to keep going. After years of putting on the weight this is the most I've ever lost. Everyone keep up the good work. The number on the scale is only a small part, feeling good about what you can accomplish is huge!

    As of yesterday, i was 184. As of this morning, I was 183.8. I'll take it!

    As of yesterday (11/17), I am weighing in at 175.6. I am now only 25 LBS to goal and only 5 LBS away from my mini-goal of losing 15 LBS by Christmas. It feels good. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    I apologize for being late, we've been soo busy packing up and moving that I've just been OBE.

    I am 145lbs - up one lb from last week. Lol, definitely stressing - gained a lbs back and it is NOT water - I have not been drinking no where near enough.

    Great achievement! 23lbs left and imagine how happy you're going to feel!

    Ok, I have been really lax on the weighing over the last 2 weeks so I am not posting scales readings. I have been ill with tonsillitis that has turned into a lower lung infection and is hindering my working out.... please feel free to tell me to get off my fat a%$e!!! Am I insane to consider getting back into the pool tomorrow when I know I am still wheezing and coughing junk?

    Anyway NSV - went out for staff Christmas party on Friday night in a skirt I bought mid year that was (shall we say tight) and spent the night pulling it back up!!! My dress I bought during spring break, it no longer needs the granny tummy tuckers from the thighs to the boobs, it looks good without them and my work mate told me that it is now LOSE - no wonder I am constantly tugging at it, cos it is riding up when I walk as it will hopefully be in the post to my girlfriend who is doing this journey with me soon. I tried on a AU 16 shirt that I know is a small 16 yesterday, and I can ALMOST fit the flabby arms in it.

    So while the scales and I might be fighting, the clothes and I are winning. Now just to get the body to expel the rest of the ****ty weekend food and alcohol and I'll be feeling like I really am doing well rather than feeling all bound up and URGH!! I think I now know why you shouldn't go on drinking binges (even if the boss pays for it) - it constipates you!!!!!!!

    My scale says I'm either the same as last Saturday or up .2 lbs (it changes as I get off and on it several times!) Either way, I'm totally pleased with where I'm at, I actually feel amazing! My husband mentioned a few times yesterday "You really are getting thin" (in a good way, not in the "too" thin way ;) ).

    Anyway, yesterday we went clothes shopping and depending on the manufacturer, I am wearing a size 4, 6, or even a 2 in one pair of pants! Feeling slim, fit, healthy and I'm loving it!

    Cheers and best wishes to everyone here! Thanks so much for the support and camaraderie everyone, love and hugs to all of you!
