weighed on my proper scale to get an accurate read started me at 180 pounds. today I'm 178 pounds. glad to toss 180 pounds out the window. thinking of changing my goal weight to reach a certain goal then when I hit that one put a new weight in etc. till I find my ultimate goal.

    That's amazing! Congrats :) Setting short-term goals is great, as it keeps you motivated.

    Congratulations! I changed mine from 150 to 145 to 140. I may go to 130 after that, but everyone is telling me to stop now based on how I look. I've got 5 more lbs, then I'll decide for sure.

    this gives me 16 pounds to my short term goal. I really don't know what goal I want to aim for yet. at 178 pounds I can wear a size medium / large shirt depending on the style only because of being bigger busted. and on the bottom depending on the make of the jeans between a size 14/16 due to my thighs ( that is where I carry most of my weight). I am not really sure what size my short term goal would put me. I am a 5"4 inches tall, large frame, broad shouldered, big boned girl. ( your atheletic type) so while someone who is dainty could pull of the 125-130 pounds at that height someone like me might not look realistic to aim that low in weight.

    Awesome! It wasn't that long ago that I was celebrating breaking out of 180lbs as well! It seems like every break into a new weight range (as in 190 to 180....or 180 to 170) is a bit of a struggle for me! Right now I am working on breaking from 160 to the 150s!

    You're doing awesome girl, keep it up!

    Congrats. I am trying to leave the 170s behind, 4 lbs more to go but it seems so far away.
