    Hi Cheryl,
    I just started about 2-3 weeks ago - weighing in at 168.8
    I'm averaging about 1 pound per week
    Down 3.3 pounds since my last weigh-in
    My darn scale seems stuck at 160. No matter what my weight change is my scale always says that I'm 160, so I have to weigh myself at work and I never seem to remember to weigh myself until the end of the day - which would just totally depress me. I like to weigh myself in the early morning, before I chow down any foods.

    I am really enjoying this site and I am very encouraged that I will reach my goal at 120.

    Thanks for the post Cheryl, Good luck to you and everyone else on the site.

    Hi There!
    I started last Monday, Oct 15th: 165

    October 22: 163
    October 24: 158.5

    I can't believe it... I'm pretty excited. Haven't been below 160 since I HAD to go on a practically fat free diet when I had gallstones 5 years ago.

    It feels pretty good...

    Yeah, I haven't moved the scale much in the past two weeks. That's not very rewarding. Finally today I went down about 1/2 a pound. So I hope I am off the slump. Hang in there Healthier - you'll make it!

    Not coming off as fast as I want, and my clothes don't feel any looser, but I know this HAS GOT to be working!

    Oct. 26 I am at 254.

    I gained a pound this week but I did lose between a half and inch on all measurements. So I am plenty happy with that.

    Julie, it sounds like we are in about the same situation weight and goal wise. . .

    I'm 5'9'' and started on this site last week at 161 pounds. Would like to get down to my previous weight of 137, which I got to with a LOT of determination a few years ago, then got cocky like jovifan and thought that because I was skinny I could eat whatever I wanted and it wouldn't do anything!

    I don't have a scale so have to make special trips to friends houses to weigh myself, so I don't have my current weight yet! But I will get it soon . . . hopefully there is a difference after this first week of hard work!

    Everyone, you have inspired me and encouraged me so much- keep up the amazing amazing work!

    erinkoop -

    Welcome. I moved for the boy and the boy and I broke up too. Water under bridge, though, that was 20 years ago. Boy gone for 17 years. But I love where I live and as they say "You can't go home again." Home is where I am. I also have no (blood) relatives - but a few good - no - GREAT friends.

    What is jovifan ???

    Stay with us. Did you move from the States to Down Under?

    HI - Erinkoop, there's a couple of Julies here, were you referring to me having the same situation and goal? You are 4 inches taller than me! But I look funny if I get lower than about 135. I have curves and just look weird - out of proportion - if I am 'skinny, skinny'.

    Today is my 42nd Birthday! Yeah, my big birthday present was losing another pound today. I do have a scale and I weigh myself everyday in the morning - nekkid. I never had a scale before and now with that and this daily log I feel like i am doing this the right way. The scale helps because I can catch myself before I notice it in my clothes and how they fit - which is what I used to do.

    December 27th is my 10th anniversary and my goal is to get back down to my 135 weight that I was on my wedding day, but my anniversary. Only 12 more to go!!!!

    Thank you! So far, it's a great day in central Minnesota. Sunny and cool. Picking the last of our apples and cleaning up the yard for winter. A perfect day for me. My husband bought crab legs for dinner and I can't wait to enjoy them - without the butter of course!
