140s Club!

Hello,
I thought I would start a 140s club. Although I have 2 lbs before I can officially join the club, I'm sure I can get there :) I started out weighing 210lbs and have never weighed this low in my adult life. The positivity, wonderful people and motivating stories on CC have been a true blessing. My goal is to get to 140lb and maintain that weight.
So, if you currently weigh in the 140s, are hoping to get there or want to make a short stop before reaching your goal weight, join me!
I'm sure we can all motivate and support each other so join!

Hi Calbert! 

I'm a couple pounds from the 140s, but I think starting a new group is a great idea. My goal is 145 so I have 7-8 more lbs. to go! My weight hasn't budged since December and need all the motivation/support I can get.

Go foxylady go! You can totally do it!
I hope people will join even if there is 130/140 club already.
There is 20 lb difference from 130-149.9......Let's see how it goes..

I hear ya.  I ate well today and ran.  Pretty happy with myself. 

Let's see if I can keep it up for the rest of the day.  I get weak in the evenings.

How's it going for you?

Go girl!!! You rock on...
Feb 1st was pretty successful, I ate 1700 calories and worked out for 60 minutes. I weighed myself and the scale said 151lb. I got up to 152 for a couple of days because of a binge.
Now, I'm back down to my pre-binge weight and I'm ready to see the 140s. I can't wait....
So far, I've eaten a smoothie and a little bit of oatmeal. I do plan on lifting some weights and working out later today.

How you doin' Calbert?

It was my husbands birthday yesterday and we went to dinner and I had more alcohol than I should've not to mention the food... and cake...

But atleast I ran in the AM.  I WILL DO THE SAME TODAY!  (That's my inner voice yelling at me.)

Even though I'm so close, the 140's seem so unattainable. My weigh in yesterday was 152. Humph.  I weigh in again on Friday.  Let's see if I can be 151.

*yeah right*

:)

Hey, I'm doing great! I weighed myself and guess what???? The scale said 149.8lbs....I know it's only .2 away from the 150s but I'll take it. My only option is to continue to go down. It still seems so unattainable but I know I can do it.

Is anybody else interested?

AHHHH I've been waiting to be in the 140s for sooooo long!! It feels soooooo good!! I had been at 150/152 for like a month, but I finally BUSTED through my plateau and now I've lost like 3 pounds in less than a week!! WHOOO!!

Hopefully though, I'll only be in the group for a few weeks, then I'll make my final destination the 130s club, and it will be my home sweet home :-)

Hey- I am 151/152- can I be a "junior" member until I reach the 140's? I think it would a motivator to belong to a group :)

I have started a running routine this week, so hopefully it helps... next week I will add back weights...

How do you all handle the weekends? That is when I have a hard time b/c friends want to go out not only to the bars, but dinner.... I know to choose healthier meals and not drink, but when you start to change your habits, people notice. Telling them I am on a "diet" is not an option because then I become that girl.....

 

Wow this is great. I am at 151/152 as well. I have been in the 150's for like 2 months. I am so close. And once i get to 148 I wont be obese anymore yay.

I hope I can be a member by the end of the week.

How is everyone? I weighed in at 150 today- my goal is that by next tuesday I lose .5 (I know weight fluctuates, but I haven't gotten a 149. anything reading yet)...  I get discouraged when I don't see a 5 lbs weight loss (my mini goals) so I figured why not really break it down?

Well, the weekend is almost here and I can't wait... I'm burned out from work :(

After a rough few months, I've gone up to 158
This is so disappointing because when I originally started this thread I was near the 140s by 2lbs. Haaaa
I promise that I will get it together and get to the 140s again

I want to join your club! I've been hanging out at 149 for the last few days (150 even this morning though).......but I think that tomorrow i'll be back in the 140's!!! Neferititi, I'm glad you posted that b/c i've ben STUCK at 149-150 for a week now and it's freaking me out! I'm 5'2 start weight 160.8.........and got here at 149 in about 2 1/2 months.

Can I join your group?  I started out at about 150.  I'm about 146 right now, but my scale sucks so who knows.  I just ordered a new scale online, so we'll see what that one says.
