I'm in. My goal is 20 by Christmas. Joining a bit late though.

Looks great, how long did it take?

My weight seems to drop off from top to bottom. starts in the face, then next, chest. It skips the stomach area and then starts comng off my legs. My waist is seeming to be the last to go, which looks strange in pants because the legs will become loose on me but the stomach area is still big enough to hold them up. :(

I'm also hypoglycemic. I found i would always leave it too late, and then get jittery, dizzy and not be able to function. As a result I would over eat. I'd eat one thing expecting it to kick in right away, then when it wouldn't I'd just eat more and more and just keep going for like 20 minutes eating non-stop. I thought…

What's up with people just sitting on the machines at the gym, having extended conversations with each other while others would surely like to use them.

I'm the same way. I prefer room temperature water.

I dip pita bread in it or flavoured tortillas

Great job! i can only imagine. I try and go running with my daughter sometimes who runs marathons, and I can barely make it to the next lampost without wanting to stop. :happy:

I also am interested in the answers. I got a gym membership and joined here when I noticed my tummy was hanging over my pants when I WASN'T sitting down.

I doubt you gained any weight back. Just try and carry on today as if you didn't binge last night. Stick to your diet and exersize. I know sometimes when I binge I feel very discouraged and want to just stop all together. But just stick to it, dont feel bad and you'll be on your way to losing more in no time :)

Yes I get it as well. Even if I work out one day I notice if I get home and go up the stairs then sit down I get it. Not sure what it is but I hope it is the fat meltingaway

I'm around 5'9" and ultimately would like to get to 130. For now I'll settle for 150, since I have a ways to go.

YES!!! I have absolutely noticed the same thing, and actually just logged in here right now to post a similar question, then I saw yours. But yes. My fat feels "looser" in the stomach area, and I am noticeing cellulite in places where I have never had it before (ie: front of the legs and on my arms. I didn't know if it was…

That's a huge difference!

Big tranformation! Very motivating. Congratulations, you look wonderful!

Great job!!!

Wow! Good job! Very inspiring!

Just go! Once you get there I'm sure you will be fine and be glad that you went!

I'm going to follow this post because I did the exact same thing yesterday, and felt like I had undone all the hard work I've put in the last month since I joined here. I almost didn't go to the gym today because I felt as though I'd wrecked it all anyway and the amount of extra calories I ate would take days to burn off.…

I also don't really like to work out in public. I do go to the gym, but prefer to go when it's not crowded. I haven't gotten the hang of all the machines yet, and when I'm fumbling with them I feel like everyone notices. I tried running outside in the dark for a bit a while back, but can't bring myself to do it again.

Maybe you have gained some muscle which weighs more than fat?

If you are talking cardio machines, then I know what you mean. I often get on one, feel like I've been on it forever, then look at the timer and only 2 minutes have passed. I usually walk to and from my gym to get the cardio in that way, and mainly work on the weight machines.

I have this problem too. Especially late at night. i can go all day and stick to the diet and go to the gym etc, but once I get that 'binge eating' feeling at night I CANNOT control it. :(

I actually wanted to post this question myself, so I'll follow this post. I often feel like i could at least look 'average' sized if I didn't have this tummy problem.

I agree. i go fine all day until it's the end of the day... Work is done, I have been to the gym, I come home to relax and I need a drink.... At which point I come on here log in my food, exersize and I go completely over them with the beer!!!
