    I've been fluctuating between 141-142 lbs on the scale for the past 4 days, so I will stick with the highest weight just to be safe this time and hopefully avoid a "gain" in future weigh-ins.

    I really think that Lent is going to get me to this goal. I can stay on track only for so long but the "goodies" left at work always throw a wrench in my eating plans. My goal is to give up indulging in food for Lent. Not giving up anything entirely but not over-doing it I think is what will help.

    Hello everyone! Sorry I have been a little absent... most unlike me!
    So we already have some great losses. I'll be highlighting the biggest loser each week and progressively.

    I am still stuck on my silly plateau of the mid 140s but I am mostly ok about it. I lost 47 pounds in 5 months and I think my head needs to catch up with what my body knows is the new me. I really believe that I am in this permanently so I'm not going to stress about it.

    Here are the fats (facts!) and figures:

    Goal for March 31st: 139 (I want to see the 130s by the end of the month)

    Challenge this week: 100 abs exercises every day - that can include sit ups, side sit ups, bicycle sit ups etc. I haven't checked but I reckon youtube will be able to give you some ideas. Feel the burn!

    I'd like to join as this is an attainable goal for me. The other threads that are 10+ pound goals are just NOT something I can do. If I'm to late, please disregard my post.

    Feeling a little frustrated about this. I know it is a loss, but I had (mistakenly) weighed myself half way through the week and weighed in at 152.6. At my first weigh in it was my TOM, so I guess I'm feeling like my weight loss was more water weight than anything. The weight I'm at is more of a common number for me to see on the scale than my starting weight which just adds to my frustration. Lesson learned: just do one weigh in a week to help with the emotionally battle that always accompanies weight loss! On to next week!

    Weight loss 2.5 pounds

    Much better than I expected. I had a terrible week and wish I could say that that weight loss was from eating healthy and exercise which is normally how I have been loosing it but its not. My boyfriend of two years broke up with me this week cause he didn't want to be tied down, wanted to party and etc. AND its midterm week for me plus my TOM. So honestly I haven't been eating a whole lot. but thats changing tomorrow, getting back up to 1200 calorie minimum and staying there. Hope everyone had a better week than me!

    Oh sweetie I really feel your pain. I broke up with my boyfriend a little while ago and it hurts. I know people will be giving you advice right now but all I can say is each day gets a little easier. Also read a book called The Secret. It's about positive thinking - sounds a little "out there" but it really pulled me out of a dark hole. Time for you to look after the most important person in the world... you!
