Girls in their 20's who want to lose about 100 pounds


Quote  |  Reply
Hi, my name is Suzanne and I am 23 years old. I weigh 258.3 pounds(yikes) and would really like to get down to between 140 and 150. I was wondering if there was anyone else out there in their 20's who has about that much they want to lose. We could work together and stay motivated to reach our goals!!! Also, if there is anyone in their 20's who has lost that much and wants to share their success story, I would love to hear it! Thanks!

dalma-No Way!  Is vodka and diet coke, really calorie free??

boots-nice place

akela-I'm jealous, I wanna see new moon too :)

akasha-WOW, no way I could skip the popcorn at the movies because of the smell alone.  That's why I skip the movies instead!

goal pants-I have this pair of capris pants that a friend gave me.  I took them to be polite but I knew there was no way I was gonna fit into them.  For some reason, I never got around to donating them and they have become my "goal pants" :)

doit, i'm wrong. vodka's not calorie-free; i just checked the cals on here. i thought it was b/c a friend of mine used to order that drink when she was tryna lose weight, and she told me vodka was cal-free. i should've known she was wrong, but i don't drink so i never thought to disbelieve her. sorry akela! 1 ounce has as many cals as a whole bottle of light beer.

btw, WW says one of the lower-cal drinks is a sex on the beach. still has about 150 cals per.

Hey girls!  Last week I totally estimated myself at 220 and was freaking out about getting on the scale today (side: Erik and I got the CUTEST red and pink striped glass scale from Target...it's mega cute!) because I was sure I was going to be like, 225 or 230 or 235....but I got on it.  And....

I am totally 215.2 lbs!  WOOHOOO!  I haven't been under 220 in 2 years at least.  I am officially the smallest I've been in years...it's so weird!  I am feeling really great though, and excited.  CC has put me as reaching my mini goal of 175 by April 26...I could totally be back in a 10/12 by my mom's birthday!  I feel so motivated these days to stay on track and I am finally so happy that stress isn't derailing me every three days.  Yay for good times!

Also I officially finished week 1 of the c25k last night!  My speed is slow....5 mph or 12 minutes a mile. But I really feel like I am ready to jump into week 2 tomorrow because I was totally able to run for 90 seconds on my last run segment instead of just 60 and I didn't feel very much different.  I reckon I will see tomorrow though!

I hope I can stick with the c25k.  Cardio is so hard for me...like I hate doing it beyond reason.  So if I can keep enjoying this and feeling good about myself everytime I finish a workout I really think it will do me a world of awesomeness.

LOVE YOU ALL hope you're all having great weekends!  I am going to Erik's sister's house tonight with a huge pulled pork that has been slow cooking all night (mmmmm) and some COLE SLAW!  YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMM /jizz.

dalma-oddly, I totally had a sex on the beach last night! Smile
