Hello from Argentina! Here we are in a very cold winter, so it will be a winter challenge for me
Very excited of this challenge, feeling pretty lonely on this journey...If I will not lose weight by my own, I am headed for a Gastric Bypass...sad. I have a lot of health problems. like INSULIN RESISTANCE, HASHIMOTO DISEASE (HYPOTHYROIDISM), very bad Arthrosis in my back, etc. It's very hard for me to lose weight but slowly I am doing it...so, I don't think I will lose 10 pounds in a month, but I will do my best!!!
I am 57 years old, 5'.2''

Wow! Great loss dward!! I know how difficult it can be when travelling, so you rocked it! I have a business trip coming up this Monday - Thursday to TX, so I have to will myself to do well, stay hydrated, eat properly, and get in some movement! I don't know about you, but I also swell like crazy when I fly.

Thrilled with a 7.6 pound loss this week - and only .9 away from my month goal. That .9, along with y'all, will help keep me motivated while on my business trip to have a good week!0 -
Go Pidge! And when you get that bike set up in front of the telly, you are going to MELT AWAY!
ALSO--next week, you are going to really benefit from an absence of crisps in your life. That is such a positive, long-term, step.
I am so happy for you. As you know, I too am a crispy critter. So I really know what it is you have done--and I know it isn't easy.
My favorite crisps were on sale this week; practically free--they were never that cheap when I ate them--but I thought of you and walked on by. So thanks for helping me stay off the crisps too!
And now I am off to get myself weighed...0 -
I'm SUPER happy to report that I lost 2.6 lbs this week, since my last weigh-in last week!!! :bigsmile: Only 2.6 lbs away to meet my GW for this month... There are 2 weigh-ins left, I'm SURE I can make it!
dward: GREAT JOB on losing 3.4 lbs!!! AWESOME accomplishment in just ONE week!!! Keep it up! Btw, it is INCREDIBLY hard to lose weight when traveling. Great job on correcting that when you got back! :happy:
Pidge: GREAT JOB on losing weight this week!!! Keep up that good work!
CC: WOW!!!! FABULOUS job!!!! 7.6 lbs is A LOT in a week! Good for you!!! I'm so happy that you are SOOOOOOO close to your GW for this month. I am more than positive that you will make it. Keep up the good work hun! :drinker:
m23: I'm so happy on avoiding your temptation, and excited to see your progress as well!!!0 -

Aug 15 322!--right on target!
Aug 28 goal...revised from 315 to 318.
PLUS--this week is the first drop of actual fat mass!
If there is sad part to all of this...since I started measuring with a fat mass scale--despite losing 30 pounds since June 20, my overall percentage of body fat has gone up because what has been lost has been primarily water. (It seems that Diet Coke is not a viable option for long term hydration. * sigh *)
However, my trousers can't tell the difference between water loss and fat loss, and I FEEL great.0 -

Woohoo, a new 100+ pal! Welcome Danielle. It looks like you're already off to an awesome start but you've definitely found the perfect group for that extra support that will help you stick with this
I've got a big chunk to loose too so feel free to friend me up and we can go through this together ^_^ Have a wee browse of our sexy 100+ message boards, lots of great stuff to have a read of and get to know us a little. Looking forwards to losing some bulk together! 0 -
Also I have used my best detective work to discover that M23 is named Mark! Who knows what I'll unearth next.0

Danielle welcome to the Let's Lose 100+ group!!! I am glad you stumbled across our group, and even more happy that you are deciding to stay with us. Like Mark and Pidge mentioned... Feel free to add all or some, or none. I'm sure you will like it here, we're a pretty great group, I actually think we're the BEST, but I may be just the tiniest bit biased.
Great job on your numbers, I'm sure you are going to continue to move the scale in the right direction. 0 -

Welcome Michael! Great job so far, keep up the good work!0

YamRector - Hooray for 1 Kilo gone. Hey 2 pounds a week is really a great loss, especially after your disappointment last week. They were both losses, so kudos to you.
Michael - welcome and great losses. I'm glad you found the group.0 -
YamRector--TWO POUNDS (or a kg) a week is FANTASTIC! You are right on target for safe and sustainable weight loss.
WAY TO GO!0 -
Yam: GREAT JOB!!! Awesome and fantastic!
Michael: WELCOME to our great group!!! I hope you like it here; you'll find a lot of motivation, support, and unity. Feel free to participate in as much, or as little, of our discussions/challenges/threads. 0
