Mine says 145 only 7 pounds from there now. Sad thing is, it said 145 when I was 185 and got it renewed. I never changed it from when I was 145. They never cared, I don't even remember if they asked if the weight changed.

I agree, I lost my weight very easily in about 4 months. Just eating right and exercising. People are amazed when I tell them that is how I did it. They expect some magic pill or something. It is all about the determination for me.

I have lost 33 pounds and nothing really changed in my bra size. My back fat went down though. :) so I am happy.

I found losing the majority of my weight very easy for me. These last pesky "vanity" pounds for me are the hardest. Since I am happy where I am, I am preparing for maintaining now. I know when I lost weight a long time ago before my two pregnancies...I was able to maintain in the 145 range for a couple years. It was when I…

I definitely feel better. I use to drink about 4-5 cans of coke zero or diet dr pepper a day. I always felted bloated from it, and I never drank water. So in order to get my water in, I quit sodas a few months ago and never looked back. I only drink water now..and just plain water. I personally think it helped me get past…

I am pretty much in maintanence now. I have a few more I want to lose, but I am happy where I am. So I am eating at maintanence some days and letting these last few pounds come off slowly. I am more focused on inches right now.

I am 5'8 and 152. I have it set to 1350. But with exercise, I average eating about 1500-1600 a day. I started at 1350 back at 185 pounds and lost the weight pretty quickly. (Started the middle of March)

More like a snack than breakfast..I eat the same thing every morning a 90 calorie fiber one bar. Usually the lemon one or cinnamon one. Then about 1 hour later I have something small as a mid morning snack like fruit or some fig newtons. It is fine for me, I am not a breakfast person. It is my least favorite meal.…

I use to drink about 4 or so cans of coke zero a day. So I just traded one at a time with a water..till I was down to no cokes. It has been months now without a soft drink. I didn't have any withdrawals..it was pretty easy.

Congrats! You look great and are those Miss me jeans? I love their jeans. :)

You look great! I love to see a progress pic like this. Where you didn't have much to lose..since it always seems harder to lose when you are already at a relatively healthy weight.

Not always true. It depends on how much you have to lose and where you need to lose it. Most of my weight was in my lower belly. I am down 33 pounds and down 2 sizes and almost into a size even smaller. I started in a 12 and I am now a loose 8 almost a 6. So in the next 5 pounds or so, I will be down a total of three sizes.

I wanted to also add that I changed my goal up 10 pounds. I had an initial goal of 135 which is closer to the lower end of healthy weight for my height. The healthy weight range for my height is 122-164, there is no way I would look good at 122. So now that I am 152, I changed it to 145 as my goal. Which is right in the…

I also recommend getting down to your initial goal of 150. Then maybe take a break from losing weight and eat at maintenance. Then if after that month, you are comfortable where you are..then stay there. If you think you may need to lose some more, you can restart your plan. And having the time off, may help restart…

I love tuna and would eat it everyday if I could. But I am pretty simple with it and always eat it the same way. Tuna mixed with a couple squeezes of light miracle whip and then mix in some pickle relish. And that is it, so good and not complicated. Sometimes I would add a crumbled hard boiled egg in there.

I am in, if I lose 5 pounds..I will finally be in the 140's and only a couple pounds from goal. Height: 5'8 SW: 185 CW: 152 GW: I would like to be 147 by September 1st. Since my final goal is 145. Weigh in Dates: 8/1 : 152 8/8 8/15 8/22 8/28 End of Month (or whatever weigh in days you use) Total weight lost: Just for fun:…

For myself and the others who simply put they didn't log it..weren't being rude. We were just giving a reason why you "may" not want to log it. But like I said, if you want to log it..then that is great and it is always good to get activity in. I think some were saying that it may not want to be logged, so you won't stall…

I am 5'8 and I started at 185. Now at that weight, I usually wore layers..so you really couldn't tell I had so much weight in my belly. It wasn't until I lost about 20 pounds and I was at 165 that someone noticed. Now that I am 33 pounds down and 152, I get comments all the time. Everyone notices and says something about…

I have mine set to sedentary. But I do not count shopping as exercise. But if someone wanted to, then why not. I see some power walkers at the mall :). I am a fast walker anyway, but like someone said...I shopped when I was heavier. So I just think it is a bonus and never count walking..unless it is exercising and I am…

You look fantastic! Congrats on reaching your goal

I am 5'8 and I started at 185 and a tight size 12 ...4 months ago. I am now 152 and a loose size 8. Here is a before and after..before was about 179 and after was the other week.

Both my digital ones measure my children correctly and they are only 31 and 40 pounds. So it must be under 10 pounds. Btw, I have three scales. An old analog scale which is always about 3-5 pounds less than the digitals. And then a health o meter, which is pretty accurate. And I just got the eatsmart one from amazon, it…

Update....Now only 7 away! Woohoo.

You look awesome! Congrats and I love your style.

Op I am sorry you have gotten some negative comments. I was a size 12 starting off too. I was anything but healthy. A 12 on some might be great, but not for me. I am now a loose size 8 and want to get back to at least a 6. I think you look great and still look healthy. Not everyone starts at the same place as others. One…

Speaking for me, I have had two kids and carried them both low. I have a long torso, so my lower belly was my biggest obstacle. I have never heavy lifted. Now I don't have a completely flat belly yet. Getting there, but I do cardio 4-5 times a week. Always on a treadmill. I do it on an incline for 45 mins. Sometimes I jog…

Female 5'8 Started at 185 in March of this year Current weight is 152 I want to lose another 7 pounds. I started with 1350 calorie goal, and I am still on it. I also eat about half of my exercise calories. Typically I exercise about 4-5 times a week for at least 45 mins.

Nutella is yummy! My favorite snack is spreading it on a graham cracker. It is good, if you make the snack and then out the container away...lol. Do not have it close to you with a spoon. ;)

Walking at a 4 incline for 45 mins at 3.8 mph is not a leisurely walk. My HRM is the Polar ft4 with the chest strap. It is pretty accurate and has helped me lose the 33 pounds that I have. :) So I am doing something right. ;) Btw, I am 5'8 and 152, so I am at a healthy weight. During my time on the treadmill, my heart rate…

200-300 is A pretty low estimate. I average about 450 walking at an incline for 3 miles and I am not overweight. I use a Polar ft4. So the person above may be running the whole time, I could see 600 calories burned then.
