i think this is a good idea. i want to be under 140 though. my goal is 134 & then i figure i can go up & down & still be under 140 :D i know my weight will fluctuate! i don't want to get up to 218 again!!! :( |

218 to 134 is terrific. I'm also trying for about 135 so I have a little cushion for "social eating". Seems like 1 day of eating "normally" and my weight bounces up much faster than it declines. So since this was a graduation weekend, I'm back to 140. Now with the kids home for the summer (or longer), there is so much more food around, this will be a challenge. |

| yeah, i was 218 on 9/4 when i started. that's gone forever now, though. i realize that it's ok to eat whatever you want, but you need to make up for it when you do, AND you don't want to do it too often either. :D i'm back down to 141 today, so we are almost even. hehe i think exercise will be a big part in maintaining. i still need to lose this belly anyway. | ||

139.5 this morning. I weigh myself everyday, but record it on my spreadsheet on Monday. This usually forces me to behave myself over the weekend. Been under 140 for 2 months now. Funny how 140 feels heavy coming from 135, but 140 felt so light on the way down. |

| Hey! I'd like to join this party! I started at 210 the end of June last year, and I hit my goal weight of 140 mid- April this year. I have gone all the way down to 136, but I fluctuate anywhere between 136 and 139 depending on what I eat for the day. I usually eat REALLY well during the week and give myself Saturday's off. | ||

Welcome Jamie!!! You have done great. 137 at my Monday morning weigh-in despite big Father's Day dinner. I don't miss a meal, but working out more in the summer. Everyone yelling at me for being underweight, but I still feel better with each pound lost. Not sure what is best for the extra calories to maintain. |

| Thanks! 138.8 at monday morning weigh in. Ugh. I had tons of crap this weekend though, so that's not terrible. I'm hoping to drop a couple of lbs over the next couple of weeks. Going on vacation the first week in July and I'd like to be comfortable enough to eat a few treats... | ||

hi jamie :D that's my daughter's name! the one who started losing weight with me. we were both 5'8" and weighed 218 on 9/4. meanwhile, she got pregnant & had to stop, but i'm 142 now. i should be lower, but i had to stop for awhile because of people telling me how skinny i was. i'm back now & i just don't care anymore. i know it's just a shock for them to see what i have accomplished... and maybe a little jealousy too. :D i've decided to get down to 134 before maintaining. that way, if i gain a few it won't bother me so much. man! i just got up to 147 the other day & that scared me!!! LOL i love treats! |

137.5 for my Monday morning weigh-in. No social eating this weekend. Did go out for ice cream once (1 scoop). Still feeling better the less I weigh, especially with summer here. |

| 135.6 this morning. Hoping to be 134-135 before I leave for vacation next Mon. Should be doable. I had ice cream last night, too. But just a little, and I didn't really eat dinner (late lunch)... so didn't affect my calorie "budget" much. | ||

morton, 137? i guess that's good if you keep feeling better. you don't want to lose much more anyway, right? jamie, thanks! congrats on the 135! :D the baby is a boy & he's due on 8/16. we're expecting him to pop out early though. anyway, i went from 147 down to 140, but i was back to 142 today. LOL too much misbehaving lately... i went to a chinese buffet today, but i walked about 10 miles to make up for it. i hope that works... i don't want to go up again!!! just down!!! 139 by 7/5 & then 134 by the end of july :D |
