Looking for friends losing 50+ lbs!

I think we should at least let everyone know how each one of us is doing once a week. it's good to hear good news from people who are in the same place as you, definitely motivates you.

Hey how's everyone doing this weekend??

I weigh in on Sundays. Last Sunday I was down a pound, am hoping to see the same this Sunday. Seems so slow going... but as long as it keeps going, ya know?

I gave up my coffee sugar habit this week, which was a terrible addiction I've had forever. It was rough, but I figure it has to help.
I was very tired, so I went a little easier on myself with the exercise this week, I just didn't have the energy.

And I hope, that since I now have a little less than 50 to lose, I am still part of this great group? If so, I propose we weigh in together on Sundays if that works for everyone. Once we do, and get a little organization here we can do weekly challenges.

Some of you are really doing really fantastic, keep it up, and share your tips!

Hey Jane, I'm fine with weigh-ins on Sunday. (I weigh-in everyday anyway, and get a weekly average, since there are so many factors to weight gain and loss.)

Great job giving up coffee sugar!! Do you mean you gave up coffee altogether? I'm so glad I never started drinking coffee. I'm a morning person, and I really don't find the need for it. I hope you get your energy back (maybe it will ironically come from your workouts that you don't have energy for).

Yes steph, gave up the coffee totally. I have never been successful in just cutting back or weaning off, so I had to do it the cold turkey way. It was a very rough week. Still , now at week 2 I will still be struggling. The worst is over, but this is where I generally screw up, tell myself it is ok to have one, and before you know it I am back to the habit.

I am not a morning person, and I do my workouts in the evenings. I can barely get out of bed in time to make it to work on time. I am struggling now to get up a little earlier just so I can make a decent breakfast.

Hoping the scale shows a little movement today. Cutting all that sugar out of my diet has to have helped! Another pound down would be great.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday. I will be checking in later!

No, Jane, no! :noway: You can NOT fall back into the habit! Not this time! I'll be checking in.

Thanks for keepin' an eye on me Steph. I passed right by Starbucks at the grocery store today without stopping. That is a first!

I am nervous as I am about to do my weekly weigh in, and then a workout. I sure hope cutting all that sugar out of my diet has made a difference.

Ah, I am relieved, the scale again showed some downward motion. Almost two pounds this week! This all might actually be working. Awesome. thanks to everyone here for the support and motivation !

If you are still lookin for some more support add me!

wow, we kinda died out didnt we! maybe i can save it.. maybe not aha.

i had a bad wkd last wkd and gained a few lbs, but back on track and have almost lost it back. how is everyone else doing??

Can I join? I have 66 pounds to lose so I definitely need the comraderie!!

I have 60lbs to lose I would love to be added as a friend and would love to have the extra support and willing to give you all some extra support as well!

Would love to be added to your post. I have a long way to go, and I would love the motivation. It's a long journey, but it's worth the trip. Never giving up and never looking back.
