    I can so identify with you! I am at 19 pounds lost since a week before Thanksgiving and my first big goal is to get under 200... only 4 pounds to go. I have gotten frustrated and have "taken two -steps backward" at times, but I am finally doing this the healthy way. Keep it up, stay focused and keep up the good work! You can do it!!! ~Rae

    I know you're not supposed to care about the number but I sure do! breaking 200 was a huge milestone for me. I actually got there in 2009 but I think I allowed myself to feel like I had made it and therefore it was ok to indulge a little so I went back up to 221.5 (this summer). yuck. I am now at 195.9 and this time I'm not taking it for granted. I finally realize that this is the way I have to live from now on. Intellectually I already knew that but I don't think I really "got" it until I started to lose this time around. Having a goal helps quite a bit - even if it's a goal you reevaluate. I'm shooting for 185 and then I will see if that is where I want to be. I probably could go much lower than that but for now that's my focus.

    I KNOW the feeling! I have been over 200 lbs for 6 years! I am only 4'11"! I have been using myfitnesspal since Oct. 13th and made a lifestyle change! Last month I stepped on the scale and I had FINALLY got to 199 lbs! I literally screamed! My husband ran into the bathroom "what's wrong, honey?". All I could say was "LOOK!" and just started crying my eyes out! I started at 225 and today I am 194 lbs! Keep going! YOU can do it!

    I was at the edge of onederland seemingly forever even though it was maybe a couple of weeks. Feeling stuck I poured over threads looking for ideas. I found the one on eating to your Base Metabolic Rate and that's it, whatever gets burned working out simply goes into your deficit. This caused me to both increase my workouts and calories consumed compared to what I'd been at.

    I also had routinely been low on carbs so I increased that closer to my target. Now I'm melting! In seriousness, this is an experiment but reading that thread made me want to try it. I don't want to lose muscle so I'm going to consume more and try to eat back the calories from exercise while keeping it at a high level.

    Yes, it's just a number but keep the faith everybody, it's a great feeling and really worth all the effort. You'll feel great about yourselves. Good Luck!!!!!

    Hi everyone! congratulations on how far you have all come. I am in this lovely category as well. I have 15 pounds to go and i cannot wait to see a 199! Right now, I have no desire to give up or sabotage my progress at all, but I think when I get to see that number, it'll just push me that much harder. Good lucke everybody!
