    Good job everyone! I'm still slowly inching towards getting below 200. I haven't been really good on diet, but really trying to focus on staying within calorie goals this week. I want to be there already! Lol

    On the bright side, after losing 30 lbs and not really going down a size....it seems like while I have been maintaining the last few weeks I have magically gone from a 16 to 12. I kept thinking it was a fluke, but I've been to several stores and tried on bottoms and it's reality....I can fit a 12! Some are a tight fit....but progress!

    That's super exciting! I'm looking forward to 12s! I'm under 200 lbs now, but carry my weight in waist so I end up fitting that and then having huge pant legs. The struggles! Ugh.

    I'm looking to loose about 10 lbs a month I just started again :o I have done it many times and I should know how to start but I feel lost. What should I do as a beginner at the gym. I did some cardiovascular and strength today.

    I hopped on my old scale at home randomly one day, and it said 197. I was so excited lol, but my shiny new scale that I bought doesn't say that yet...about an 8 lb difference. So it was bitter sweet....I tried using some hand weights to try and measure a known weight to try and figure out which scale is correct, but don't have enough weights at home for it to register on either scale.

    So I'm waiting patiently for me to reach ONEderland on the new scale...ughh! Lol so close but it feels like I've been this close for awhile. Life happened so I've pretty much been maintaining (or gaining/losing the same 2-3 lbs over and over), but am determined to get there soon!

    This totally happened to me! I gain like 7lbs with the new scale. Then, months later I thought I was in onederland but really the batteries were dying! I feel you frustration. You can do this it will come. The 20 lbs to onederland took longer! Keep up posted!

    Every once in a while I think I've had an awesome four or five pound loss, but really it is just dog hair stuck under the feet of the scale.

    29 pounds to 199 for me. I haven't been under 200 in probably 30 years. There will be a big party and it may involve Ice cream, or rum, or both.

    126 pounds, I know it is a lot, but I can do it! Done it once 10 years ago, and I can do it again now.

    Five more lbs and I will be below 190. This is great! I am working so hard, and I know everyone else will make it also.

    42 pounds as of this morning. Haven't seen below 200 since I got pregnant with twins 7 years ago. Heading out now for a lunch walk as it finally got nice here in MN.

    I weighed in at 229.2 today. I've been losing about 8 pounds per month so far, so at that rate I will see 199 by the time my son starts middle school (MY BABY IS GROWING UP WAAAAAAH).

    I'm making a mini goal to be under 190 by my doc appointment on 4/26. I'm at 191.2 today!

    Depression is hard for that. It's contributed to my obesity since middle school. Take care and be kind to yourself on this journey.

    I've got 4.9 lbs to go! 125 days ago I had 73.5 lbs to onederland and I couldn't be more happy! It's been 6 years since I have been under 200.

    This is a great thread! Lots of great people working to or beyond the same common goal!
