Happy Sunday, everyone! Hoping to see ONEderland soon. Maybe this month, maybe not, but I am getting closer. Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999. Lowest since 1999: 195. Original starting weight: 243 in 2015. MFP Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233 Goal: 180 in however long it takes. Weekly averages: June 24th to…

Congratulations!!!! That is so inspiring! Jenn

Happy Saturday, everyone! Checking in a day early, to end the month. Saw another new daily low of 202.8 this week, and haven't gone over 203.4. I am happy with that. For me, anything over a pound lost in a month is a good month, so I am pleased with my progress. Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999. Lowest since 1999:…

I hate it when that happens. It will go away again... for good! You're doing great! Jenn

I am 51. I don't want things going south either!

Don't you hate it when that happens? I've kept most of my, uh, cup filling, this time around but yeah last time I lost a bunch of it. Wish I could lose some of the junk in my trunk. However my face is thinner, I can feel bones in my shoulders that vanished a long time ago, and I found a sternum and some ribs I'd forgotten…

You're here. That's a success. Losing weight isn't always linear. My progress graph looks like a saw blade :) Hang in there, and keep going. Most of us fall off the wagon at times, the key is to get right back on again. We aren't perfect. Big hug... no judgments here. Just support. Today's another day to try again. Jenn

Happy Sunday, everyone! I saw 2 new daily lows this week. 203 even, which marks 30 MFP pounds lost, 40 total pounds gone. The next day I saw 202.9, then I popped back up like I always do. That fits my pattern, so I am good with that. It will probably be a few weeks before I see averages in the 202s. Highest weight ever:…

You made it to ONEderland! Woohoo! Jenn

Happy Tuesday everyone! It's not weigh day but I hit a new daily low and a milestone so I thought I'd share. 203 even today. 30 MFP pounds gone as of today in the daily weight. 40 since starting my journey in mid 2015. I hope to see that in the averages soon... although I've been bouncing up and down a bit - the Georgia…

Me too. I have wooed plenty of posts, I though it was like a, "Woooohoooo!!!" Jenn

Happy Sunday, everyone! I totally jinxed myself last week and popped back into 204 territory. Oh well, that is how I roll. Keeping busy at work, going fishing on weekends, I love summertime! Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999. Lowest since 1999: 195. Original starting weight: 243 in 2015. MFP Starting weight December…

I appreciate your encouragement, Tramaine :) I'm your cheerleader too. Sometimes I feel like taking a vacation from the scale too, but I am afraid of the not knowing. Of course yesterday I jinxed myself, I was 204.1 this morning. My body telling me not to get too comfortable in thinking I am losing again. Muscles are still…

Happy Sunday, everyone! Home from a half-day of Carp fishing, I caught an 11-pounder, and my husband landed a 16-pounder on my rod. We love fishing, catch and release, we fish almost every weekend, either from the bank, from our kayaks or our little bass-buggy boat. I love being on, in or around the water. Good week this…

Happy Sunday, everyone! Another new month, my loss is going at a snail's pace. But I'm still losing, however minuscule the amount. I wore a blouse this week that I haven't worn in years, because I couldn't button it up. Now there's room to spare. I'll take those little victories when I can. Not gonna lie, being 'stuck'…

AWESOME!!!! Congratulations! Jenn

Water pills scare me too. I suppose if they are prescribed by a doctor to manage a condition, thatbis one thing, but the OTC ones can easily be misused. My weight is up again today. Sore muscles from overdoing some power cleaning :) I am sure it's water too. I always get puffy after over-exertion. Jenn

Try reloading the thread. Sounds like something got truncated. Basically you can post as often or as seldom as you wish, post your progress and we are all here to support each other. :) Jenn

I'm in again for June! Thanks for keeping us motivated!

Holy moley! I grumble about my 2-3 lb. bipolar weight swings. Sauna sweat suit? It's a real thing? Glad you're back on the right side of Onderland, but please be careful. Swings like that can't be good for you. I have been battling puffiness too. Warm weather brings it for sure. Jenn

Happy Memorial Day to all who celebrate it! Lost 0.1 in the average this week, at this rate I might reach goal by the time I retire, 20 years from now :) Daily weight today is 203.3. I was up and down all week. Haven't seen a new low yet. Still better than a gain. I am sticking with it. Highest weight ever: 254 in October…

Hang in there! It isn't always linear :)

Happy Sunday, everyone! Well I survived Mother's Day, wedding anniversary, my husband's birthday and my birthday this past week, along with a company lunch for a coworker's belated birthday. I'm still pretty much stuck, but getting through all that without a gain is a win in my book! Spending more time outside and loving…

Lady, you have an uncanny way of keeping me motivated. Thanks for that! This week is a tough one to stay on track and I know I will be off track a couple of days this week. I didn't overdo Mother's Day or today, but tomorrow is our wedding anniversary, the next day is my husband's birthday and the day after that is my…

Happy Mother's Day! I'm still here. Still stuck. Though I was un-stuck, but popped back up again. Hot weather came suddenly, I can tell it took my body a minute to acclimate. Hopefully things start moving again soon. I was retaining water forva few days, then let it go. Hoping my body finds its equilibrium again. Highest…

Never too late! Jump on in!

Happy Sunday, everyone! I may have spoken too soon about my plateau being over. :neutral: After a few days in the 203s I popped back up again as high as 205.9 midweek. The week's average only dropped by 1/10 of a pound. I'll take it - it beats a gain. For some reason my ticker isn't updating. Is anyone else having that…

I'm in!
