@MimiOfTheLusciousLawn OMG! I thought it was just me. I think it will get easier when you get to size 14. Which I think I now am. However, I just bought a couple of pants in size 16 and a couple in a size 14. I think I need to lose another 6 to 8lbs to truly call myself a 14. But I was definitely having the very same issue…

As you know not so great weeks happen every now and then. Hope you are feeling better. You are doing a great job on the challenge. I don't have any stats to add until Friday.

Congrats! As for the sodium you are so correct. Even though I am a diabetic the sodium is what I paid attention to the most because I was also taking BP medication. And that is still the main number that I look at and make sure I don't go over and all the other numbers actually seemed to fall into place. I am now off all…

@curves2j I know right? We need to think of other things to post besides our weekly weigh ins.

I don't remember when I was diagnosed but it was probably around 5 years or more ago. Bread is my weakness. you don't have to give up carbs or go on some low carb diet. Everything in moderation. April 2015 my A1C had gone up to 10 from 7 within in 4 months because I had started drinking soda again. So I cut out soda and…

This is awesome! Congrats! I know how you feel my doctor recently took me off of two medications and drastically reduced the last one with hopes of discontinuing by my next visit in April or sooner.

I have an Aria wifi scale that syncs with my fitbit and myfitnesspal. I step on and it sometimes gives me 3 different readings within seconds/minutes of each other. What I've started doing is stepping on until I get the same reading twice and take that as my official weigh in. I only step on that scale once a week on…

@istarith thank you Sarah! My cold and sore throat is much better but the Blizzard has kept me in the house this week so I have done some DVDs. Missing my morning runs though. I'm joining a gym after work today

Challenge Starting Weight 204.9 Week 1: 203.1 (-1.8) Week 2: 200.5 (-2.6) Week 3: 200.5 (-0) Total Loss 4.4 I didn't lose any weight this week. I've been nursing a cold and sore throat and it is TOM. I usually run nearly every morning. This week I only ran once and did a dvd workout twice. Gonna have to join a gym as we…

Yep that's the best way. I work out first thing in the morning so I have a 16 oz bottle after my workout and bring a couple of bottles to work with me. By the time I leave work I've already had my "8 glasses"

Just seeing this challenge. I'm 5'4 but I usually get in well over 54 ounces of water a day. I used to absolutely hate drinking water and would go months without drinking any water. So this time in order to really achieve my goals I knew I had to let everything else go and drink the water. I haven't had a soda in over 9…

@istarith Thank you!

Challenge Starting Weight 204.9 Week 1: 203.1 (-1.8) Week 2: 200.5 (-2.6) Total Loss 4.4 I weighed in 1 day early this week because I had a doctor's apt this morning. I'm so happy.

Hi Sara thanks for starting the group! Hi everyone my name is Angela. I started my weight loss journey in April of 2015 after seeing how horrible I looked in a photo at a bridal shower for a friend. Followed by a not so good blood work at a doctor's visit. I'm type 2 diabetic and my A1C level had increased and the doc…

Hi @istarith thanks for starting this group. I was in the 20lb by 2016 group. This will be a nice continuation. My name is Angela and so far I have lost over 80lbs. I saw a picture that disgusted me and my following check up with my doctor wasn't good. I originally set a goal of 110lbs by April my fitversary month. But I…

For me I knew this time was different because this time it was about my health and not about my looks. So it has been a lifestyle change not a diet. The fact that I look better is definitely an added bonus. It's been almost 9 months and I'm down over 80lbs. I still have at least 30lbs to go possibly 60lbs to reach my…

Wow that is awesome! That is my goal this year a 10 minute mile. I'm slow.

Thank you!

Me 3...lol. I've loss 6 dress sizes. When I look in the mirror I see myself smaller than I actually am...but when I look at a picture I feel like I'm still see a very large person. When I shop for clothes I just pull 2 sizes of everything to try on and usually both sizes fit and then I can't decide which size I want to…
