    4 people dieting in this house now, bought a digital scale that will hold everyones data separately, which I love. Today I was really happy when it read 190. Forty more to go but I'm not setting a date to lose by as I would like to do it as healthily as I can. This site rocks especially in the motivation department. It's wonderful to know I'm not alone and can come here for a inspiration when I'm down. Thanks everyone, but especially Mike who made this site.

    Its Friday and its weigh in day.
    This last 2 weeks I haven't done much as far as excercise as I have been sick and not excercising other than my day to day walking.

    I would love to see more but am trying to stay positive with the successes I have had. But I am still in the same pants. I have lost all my weight in my face, chest and arms so far. I have only lost 2 inches in my hips. Darn it I want that the most.

    This is awesome - I LOVE hearing about how people are doing. I am inspired by everyone here....

    Me -
    Started three weeks ago: 158
    Today: 152
    Goal: 140 by 12/27 for my 10th Wedding Anniversary
    Eventually: back to 135 which is my target weight.

    My problem - salty , crunchy food, not sweets. I could eat a bag of chips in one sitting. So, I'm eating lots of pretzels which are really dry, but at least their salty!

    like this idea .

    september 10 i was 307 lbs
    stayed on the food plan and exercise religously for 2 weeks and lost a whopping 17 lbs.
    this week i ended up sick ( too much too fast) and missed 3 days at the gym but still ate well.
    lost only 1 lb, ( remember i didnt do anything before deciding to change)
    so now a 18 lb weight loss in about 3 weeks.
    starting a different work out routine which includes cardio ( which i have been doing) and weight training,

    i am waiting for the plateau to happen and i hope to have some suggestions on training changes to put that spark back into my loss...'michael

    Ok, so I'm fairly new & like this site a lot.

    started:
    9/24 @ 217 lbs.
    10/8 @ 211 lbs.

    I haven't found time to exercise yet, bc I'm a single mom to a busy 13 yr old who is in soccer, volleyball and band. Plus a three year old. Add two jobs to that mix and I barely find time to sleep.

    That said, I'm going to try and start walking over my lunch hour (30 minutes) or go to the weight room (I work at the local high school).

    Hi

    These numbers are not all that accurate because don't have a scale as of yet but i started a week ago at what i guessed to be 157 which is mostly post baby as my newest addition is 2months old my goal 120. But hear is the thing as a teenager I made myself very sick worrying about a number on the scale so i try not to focus on that number so much anymore. To me it is inches that matter and those numbers are:
    Chest -39
    hips-39
    waist-34

    This is a little scary, but maybe it will help me get off of this plateau.

    When I joined in the middle of Sept., I was 227.

    As of today 10/10, I was 226.2 :(

    Sugarlove: i too have a 10 month old. My other 2 are 3 3/4 and 2 3/4. It was way easier to lose weight the first time. Not sure what's going on this time arounf, but I don't ever remember it being this hard before to lose.

    It isn't Friday yet but I am going to do this now.

    8/20 280
    8/27 270
    9/6 265
    9/16 260
    10/05 258
    10/11 255

    I have been feeling pretty good about things. The one thing I am struggling with is that I want to eat. I have a particular craving for french bread that is irrisistable. So I am going to try and get past that and get down to business. I have a loooonnnnngggg way to go. But as long as there is improvement I am thrilled.

    Eve
