    I started at 177, and have made it down to 173.2. I am so excited to hit 169, it is my new goal. I can't wait till I see the 170's disappear on my scale! I also weigh everyday, but if it fluctuates within one pound I don't sweat it. I know as long as I am working hard, and making healthy choices, I know I will reach my goals.


    Great job!!!! You are so close!!!

    Wow That's great


    - Update Right now my 1 mile averages to around 16-17 minutes I am signing up for a 2 mile walk/run on April 9th I'm nervous 1 mile is hard enough for me and I gotta do TWO?! I am excited though! I hope to also be in the 160's by then but I doubt that happening It's 3 weeks and 6 days away... do you think that's possible? I haven't weighed lately but last time I weighed I was at 176 :/

    If you can lose 2lbs a weeks you should be able to be at least 170 if not less by then. And don't worry, you can do two miles. Just keep telling yourself you can, and you will. When I work out, I like to listen to music and measure how much time I have left in songs. It makes it mush easier to think I only have 3 songs left instead of 12 minutes. So instead of thinking you have two miles, tell yourself you ONLY have so much left. Good luck!

    Still at 171...but I'm fairly sure I have lost a bit around the tummy and building muscle in my legs, so I'm not complaining too much.:wink:
