The "I've already lost 100+ Pounds" Club
Hey Guys!
I'm creating this club for those of us who have already lost 100+ pounds and are continuing on our journey's. I know that for a lot of us, body image after losing over 100+ pounds is hard to deal with. Saggy skin, loss of breasts (as a female), and our whole life changing.
So share your stories, ask questions, gain support, and most of all be open!
Starting Weight: 294.4
Current Weight: 161.4
Lost: 133
Goal: 139
To go: 22.4
Yippee... I love clubs! and love seeing people who are successful!
Starting weight: 343 (maybe more... but that was the first time I'd been on a scale in years!
Current weight: 233.8
Lost : 109
Goal: 160... I think, maybe... who knows?
To go: 73.8 (That number doesn't look as big as it used to!)
Awesome! I love finding people I can share a common ground with.
Are you having body image problems? I've been spending all weekend thinking about if plastic surgery at the end of this road will be right for me or what I'm going to do about feeling good about myself. So much to consider! But I do get down a lot about the 'extras' that I see when looking in the mirror.
Congrats on the 109 lost!
Current weight: 256 lbs
Lost: 107 lbs
Goal: Original was 220 ( for a loss of 143 lbs) then after I lost 60 lbs I changed it to 175.... I guess Im not SO FOCUSED On that #.. Im really focused on Health... I was skinny ( size 9) and weighed 175 in high school as a cheerleader... so who knows if thats even possible after 2 kids c-section...
To Go: 37lbs to reach 220 ( mini goal) 82 lbs to reach 175........
Im glad you started this........ Although I hope many more can join as they lose their weight as well.!!!!!! Michele~~ See ya soon!
I Qualify !!!!!!
I started at 371 on Feb 28, 2007. I am now 265. That is 106 lbs down total. My ultimate goal weight is 140, so I have a very long road ahead of me. I am 5'2" by the way.
Star, I definitely worry about saggy skin. I am already noticing some looseness and it is early in this journey for me. I think a lot about surgery. I think it will depend on how I look. I have already started saving for it. It I don't get surgery then I will have a wonderful shopping/vacation fund 
. For now I am just trying to stay focused and motivated. I have never "dieted" this long before.
Good work and all the best for your ongoing journey.
Me too! I started my journey a little over a year ago and so far:
Starting Weight: 278
Current Weight: 173
Lost: 105 (!!)
Goal – well, I’ve been setting my goals small all along, so it doesn’t seem so overhwelming. My goal is the next 10 pounds. So today my goal is 170. Once I reach that, it will be the next 10.
The weight loss is getting slower now than it was in the beginning, but still steady – 8 pounds since a month ago. I just joined a gym about 6 weeks ago, so not only am I losing lbs, but inches also. Plus I feel really strong and healthy – I think I actually saw a bicep today!
Hooray for us!
Glad to see there are others like me! :)
Starting: AT LEAST 276, probably more- I avoided scales
Now: 169
Would like to be: I don't care about the weight- I want to be a size 6/8 US.
It certainly feels good not shopping plus anymore! I am almost in a 12, which I am excited about.
I totally have found myself into this new lifestyle- I don't think of it as a diet anymore. Can you believe I lost (at least) 107 pounds in 15 months and had a baby in that time? I got preggers in June 06 (which was when I was at 276, but I had lost a little before conception), he was born in Feb 07, early but healthy.
Anyone know when/if we get to get into normal bras? I am still a 34-F (breastfeeding makes them huge) and would love to be a B cup- anyone out there have experience with this?
Thanks!
