Well, I've been under 160 pounds for a week, so I'm officially declaring myself below 160. :-) Who else has made it to this point in the journey? I'm just so glad to be past the halfway point after 4 months of hard work.

    I've been hovering around 155 pounds for the past week. These last 15 pounds are going to be a real battle I think.

    Still shifting between 155 and 157. It would be nice to get closer to 150 eventually...

    I am officially here! 159.8 this morning. Take that 160's!

    Now down to 157.6! These 150s are going much faster than the 160s did. I felt like I was there forever!

    Welcome aboard! :D I'm finally past the halfway point in the 150s myself.

    156.2! I think I was wrong about those 150s coming off quicker than the 160s, but at least I am moving in the right direction again. Those family BBQ's get me every time!

    155.6! It seems like the weight is coming of in chunks lately. No loss for a week and the. Boom. 1.6 lbs. I like it!

    Keep on going!! I'm currently pushing past 152. I finally had to buy new clothes this weekend since my old ones fit like tents!

    I am getting close to that myself. Almost all my pants I can take off without undoing, and my shirts are looking baggy. I'm not shopping until right before my vacation though.

    155.2 this morning...can't wait to reach my halfway point at 153.5!

    152.6! It looks like I can get below 150 before I go to Vegas in 3 weeks! It was my goal to have lost 30 by my 30th bday, but that is on Saturday so I don't think it's going to happen. But I am damn happy with where I am!

    Happy birthday! :D I've been hovering around 150 lately, soo close to staying below that.
  • kumamushi
    kumamushi Posts: 103 Member
    I was just barely below 150 for about a week, but then I fluctuated up today. Not sure what's up with that. Still, I'm pretty close to my goal weight, so I'm happy about that. :)

    I hit 152 on Friday, but went back up over the weekend. :( Hoping to be below 151 by this Friday!

    I think I may have hit my first plateau. I've been fluctuating between 152 and 153 for the last 3 weeks now.... :(

    Aw. :( I plateaued for a month at one point, it was a real pain. As long as you keep living a healthy lifestyle it'll go back down eventually.

    I sure hope so, because the scale has been making me VERY angry lately. :mad:

    I've been in the 150's for SO LONG now! Still 153...after weight workouts I go up 1 or 2lbs for a few days, then back down to 153. The other day I saw a whisper of 152.5, but then back to 153 - argh! Is there a specific group to join (and if so, how?), or do I just keep following this thread?

    Thanks so much - Kristina

    Just keep following this thread. I am in the exact same boat. I went down to 152, then back up to 153, then down to 152.5, then back to 153....


    I don't know what else to do! I've been fairly good at eating right, and I walk quite a bit each day. I guess I just have to wait it out!

    I'm currently stuck around 149 pounds, so I'm guessing I must be close to my ideal weight. I decided to just change my goals to "lose 1 pound per week" to maybe kickstart things for the final stretch. It's nice to have a bit more leeway again, 1200 calories a day is tough.

    Back down to 151.8! Finally! That Vegas weight came off easier than I thought it would. It was hard to get back down to 1200 calories a day, but now that I am, its not so bad anymore. Hopefully I will be out of the 150's soon, once and for all!

    kumamushi Posts: 103 Member
    Hooray! I'm glad you're making progress. :-) Since I've been losing weight a lot slower I'm just keeping track of my waistline more than anything... I'm down to 32.5" around my waist!

    Down to 150.8! Hopefully on Friday when I officially weigh in, I can be under 150. Keeping my toes crossed!

    148.2 this morning! Going to wait a few days to see if it stays that way. Might have to find me a 140's club!
