...if my feet hadn't been on there a second before! Finally, it's moving in the right direction! I'd been waiting months, alllll summer!, for it to move out of the 210's...I was praying just to see the number 209. I know not many people pray to see 209 on their scale, but I was! And I got on this morning, and the scale felt like being nice and skipped 209 and went to 208. :drinker: Yay for small victories!

I swear it's from starting to run and concentrating on not eating late at night and being so diligent about it! I work at a restaurant and i bringmy own dinner...now that's diligence! :laugh:

    I agree! I was at 210 for like 5 weeks hoping for that 209 to pop up at some point and my scale skipped down just a lil further to 208.5
    I was super excited! Its a great feeling to start out the weekend with.

    Congrats to everyone else who had thoughtful scales this week as well :)

    :wink: I won't weigh in until next week but I sure hope my scales are listening to your scales.

    :flowerforyou: Congratulations to all of you for the losses, and for showing me that it is possible to persevere through the scales being stuck and there is VICTORY on the other side.

    Love and Blessings to you all.:drinker:

    Congrats! I'm working to the same goal of getting under 210 right now. I'm at 212.5 today (went up half a pound!). But today I'm going to watch my food and just do some light exercises at the house (today I decided would be my grace day aka lazy day), and God willing, by the end of next week...! Haha.

    Thanks!

    Well, something must have gone wrong in my body this weekend because I undid a lot of my hard work and ate everything in sight! I mean, I had cookies for breakfast on Saturday! :noway:

    But it's Monday and I'm back on the wagon! :laugh:
