    Thank you all for the support - that's why I love this site. I definitely need the encouragement these days. I did do my exercises yesterday and today, plus logged in my food diary. One step at a time!

    How is the challenge going for everyone? I got rid of some of my old, baggy clothing but haven't bought anything new yet. I have a pair of size 8 jeans in my closet that I have never worn, and I am just fitting into the 10's. I am waiting to wear those 8's comfortably to shop til I drop!

    I tried something on today--- a tight pencil skirt I bought last year and have never worn. I was surprised when it zipped up easily and was more than happy to model it for my bf. It is something I could actually wear in public!

    Great challenge... I have actually been doing this little by little... As soon as something gets too big... it's outta here!! I want it gone!!
    There is actually a lady who goes to our church that I have been giving my "big" clothes to... It makes us both happy :smile:
    I am going to do my best to remember to weigh in this weekend.... I have been bad about forgetting lately... I will weigh in but I will forget to post here in BB... I'm hoping to do it tomorrow...

    Great job to everyone who lost this week! I lost some, but still not under 195, so I'm not even gonna bother putting it down. I'm confident that I should have a good loss next week, I've been working hard this past week and I plan on keeping it up!

    Awesome job, Kandy! I know exactly how it feels to be right there at the 100s. You can do it!!!

    Great job, everyone! I am at 157 this week. I am frustrated at how slowly the weight is coming off but happy that it is. I am going to rev up my exercise a lot this week and hope to see big results next weekend.

    Hi!

    I've been reading this thread and I can't believe the incredible amount of support everyone has for eachother. I've just recently signed up for MFP, and I would really love to be a part of this group. I know you have all been working hard since October, but I hope you'll understand my visions of looking good in my bikini are (almost) the same as anyone elses - my scenario is that last summer I didn't look half bad in it, I was running almost everyday and eating well, but over the winter I've been lazy and developed bad eating habits. I have steadily gained weight to the point I was too ashamed to get bikini clad and jump in the hot-tub with my friends last week. I didn't want everyone to see how much weight I'd packed on. Unfortunatly whenever I mention losing weight, my friends being the nice people they are want to make me feel better and will say things like "You don't need to worry, your not fat." So of course I'll be like "yah! I'm not fat!" and then I get even lazier and eat even more. Motivation anhilated.... anybody else share my problem?

    Somebody told me a story, I've never looked up its truth, but I'm hoping to use it for inspiration. Apparently when arnold schwarzenegger first came to the states, he was a typical gym rat with a huge upper body and skinny little chicken legs. To motivate himself to work on his legs, he would wear shorts to expose how skinny they were. People would taunt him constantly about his thin legs, and he used there mockery to stay motivated at the gym. With this in mind I figure the best way to motivate myself to look good in my bikini, is to come face to face with how much I don't like how I look now. So I posted in my profile a pic of me in my bikini last summer, and pics of me now...

    After doing that I came across this thread and couldnt believe how perfectly it fit with my motivation plan! I know I haven't as much to lose as some, but support would be wonderful just the same :)
