Soooooo Close!

I'm at 49 lbs lost! 1 little pound away from my first big goal! Does anyone else feel teased when they're teetering on the edge like that lol

My husband and I joined the YMCA today. That'll show that pound ;)

    Yes, It seems as I approach a goal, I teeter. up 2 lbs, down a pound for about a week or 2!

    I don't weigh myself. I go by the way I feel and my pants.

    Great work on that 49lbs. I have had the same thing happen in the past but mine was at a certain weight. It seemed like it took forever to hit 185. I would get to 186 and then shoot back to 188. I finally changed my routine and showed that 185 who was boss. Now I am around 175-177 and not really "concerned" with the weight as I am looking for muscle gain. Once you get that 50 mark you will feel like a burden has been lifted! You can do this!

    Yep - I've been stuck so close to 40 pounds for what feels like weeks and weeks now - so frustrating! I'm trying to remind myself of this while feeling hungry and tempted to snack on everything in sight.

    You have lost 49, so you will do one more....keep doing what your doing...obviously you are something very right!
  • Absolutely - in fact If I'm super duper close I skip weighing myself for a couple of days so I don't drive myself bonkers :) Congratulations, you're almost there! :)

    Every time I'm close to a mini-goal, I get teased by loosing extra slow for about two weeks. So frustrating sometimes!
    You'll get there!
