    This thread is so good! So amazing to see how far people have come.

    I hit 199.2 about a month ago! I was so happy I cried. I never thought I'd see those numbers dip under 200 again. Now that they have I've gained more motivation to keep going.
    We can do this✌

    Love it!

    16lbs!! I've been stuck in a bad pattern. Been on here since end of December last year and only lost 4 lbs!! I'm a failure!

    You are not a failure! This journey takes time you can do this!

    All of a sudden I am not losing weight anymore, adding like .02 instead of going down. I am SO close to onderland, must figure out where I am going wrong before I get so frustrated that I chow down on chocolate and Dr. Pepper (my addiction)!

    Take a deep breath! Maybe tighten up your logging or get some more movement in?

    I'm at 211.8. So close. I was loosing too fast and had to up my calories. That was hard because I just want to get under 200 so bad. But 5lbs a week at this stage isn't healthy. I'll get there!

    116 pounds to get to Onederland. 15 pounds down from my starting weight so far, so it's not going to bad! 299 is my first big goal :D

    Still 13 away...ughh! But no one to blame but myself for not being closer, I wasn't too good this weekend. On top of that I'm still bloated pending arrival of aunt flow. I'm hoping for a great week this week, so hopefully i can be single digits away from ONEderland by next weigh in.

    14lbs to onederland. I've been on and off the MFP wagon several times in the past 2 years. Current streak is 50 days, and have lost 8lbs in the past 7 weeks. I need to step it up, I have a family wedding to attend in 3 weeks and want to firm up some before then!

    You've got this! TOM always messes me up too, don't let it get in your way! Drink lots of water to help flush out that bloat.

    Friday is my mfp weigh in day, but I weigh every day and track in a separate app for trends. Well today I was 209.6. I hit 90lbs lost! We shall see if it sticks tomorrow. I'll be over the moon!

    Only 29 pounds between me and 199. That's amazing. I lost about 30 pounds since the new year (dropped a couple on my own and then got serious on 1/14, the first day of logging everything). I've been using MFP daily for 56 days and it added up fast. That's because I took it one day at a time. I am not dieting. I am just waking up each day and doing my best to do my best.

    If the weight comes off this week, yay. And if it comes off in another week, yay. I've plateaued before - what a let down after a month of strict dieting - but one thing is for sure: nothing stays the same. Eventually the scale moves.

    Once I reach my goal (which is not the one MFP selected, btw) I'll likely go to a nutritionist for guidance about sane eating that'll help maintain my weight. I feel calm. I don't feel deprived. I feel happy and comfy in my skin. I'm enjoying the experience back to me.

    Only 3 more lbs to go! Paleo is much easier than I thought it would be. Can't wait to hit onderland again, and for the last time.
