    Fab!!

    I'm still taking it easy- doubt I'll be able to work out until the weekend at least. Living off what's left in the flat before my monthly shop too- so I may well gain for the next weigh in....

    Hey ladies. Thought I would join you all. Even though I'm very close to my goal weight I still have a lot of fat to lose. My bf% 31.9 and I want to get it in the lower 20's or teens. I might even change my goal weight from 180 to 170 once I reach it. Who knows. I'm just really focusing on changing my body composition now.

    Stats:

    6'0" (well 5'11".75)

    SW on MFP: 248 lbs.
    CW: 197.8 lbs.
    GW: 180 lbs.

    SBF%: 39%
    CBF%: 31. 9%
  • Glad that I saw this post. I am 5"11 and my ideal weight is around 165. Currently I am 199. Let's encourage each other. Feel free to friend me.

    No weigh in for me this week because I'm away from home. I'm a bit worried about what the result of that will be when I step on the scales next week, but I'll do my best in the meantime...

    Plateaud for 3 weeks :o(

    My plan of action- to change things up a little:

    1. do different workouts

    2. zig zag calories

    3. Eat 'cleaner' and less processed foods

    I'll let you know in 2 weeks if this has helped.

    Just take it easy. Better that you sit on that plateau and recover than push too hard and set yourself back. :flowerforyou:
  • You know what I love. I loveeeeee seeing progress, it's not always with weight loss, sometimes it's the way my clothes fit or that i can into something i have not worn in forever. Or like tonight I worked out longer than i have ever and i made it through the whole work out. Yay me!! LOL my goai is to get to a hour and I'm almost there!!

    Excellent stuff!!

    I don't weigh in until sunday- and have been on a plateau so I wonder if I can bump that this week. I'm starting 30 DS today.

    Maybe Gillian will get things moving again.....

    Hey Ladies!

    I would love to join!

    I'm 5'10.5"
    SW: 305
    CW: 260
    GW: 150, though I really can't imagine being under 200, so we'll see what happens when I hit that point.

    My SW is what I was when I went to the Dr. several months ago. I don't have a scale, so I hadn't been weighed since then. I've been watching what I eat and being more active since that point. I joined mfp a few weeks ago and I just weighed myself this weekend and, to my surprise, I was at 260.

    I have to say, I don't feel like I've lost anything. No one has commented on it, and I'm still in the same size clothing. I did notice that I feel totally comfy in pants today, and these same ones were tight enough to leave marks on my stomach not that long ago...

    I want to be able to buy patterns and make myself clothing without having to make adjustments for the width. I'm never going to be able to make a pattern without adjusting the length, but I would like to fit into a size they make patterns for as far as my actual size. (pattern sizes run a lot smaller than pre-made clothing sizes)
