NSV- Fitting in to a pair of jeans I inherited from my mom (she's cool, there good jeans) after she lost a bunch of weight. I inherited the jeans ooooooh.... 5 years ago? Have held on to them because I was always annoyed I couldn't fit into my mom's FAT JEANS! So I said I would keep them until I could fit in them, and now I can

Bump for next month0

April 1: 146
April 6: 145 (-1 pound)
April 12: 143 (-2 pounds)
Ok, I'm back to where I was in mid-March, now the next pounds I lose will be for the first time for an all-time post-baby low, instead of losing the same pounds for the second or third time...
I booked a trip to visit my sister in June (8 weeks away), and she has challenged me to lose 5 more pounds before then. I adjusted the goal to 6 pounds, since that would bring me to 136, which is the top of the "healthy" BMI range. (I'm 5'2".)0 -
NSV- Lost close to10 lbs in a week, just by getting back into the workout routine, but now I'm stuck at 189....

I'm in a little shock here. I realized why I gained almost two lbs last week. Poor food choices and TOM certainly were the top two. But now to have this! OMG. Plateau...stay away!
@usborne, thanks much for your tip about eating half of your exercise calories. Such a good physical and psychological mind set!
Ok, the plateau prayer was effective! New Goal: 8.5 lbs for April!0 -
Hi folks, New here but really want to get this 5 pounds off in April.
