160's club

I didn't see a 160's club so I decided to start one. I'm in need of some motivation to keep the weight loss going!

I lost 30 pounds last fall but I've been completely slacking the past few months and ended up gaining a few pounds back.

I NEED to keep losing!

I weighed in at 168 this morning. My first goal is to get to 150. I'm 5'4" and I'd like to ultimately get to 130-135lbs.

 

Anyone else want to join me in the 160's club? (hopefully not for too long!) :)

Congrats on 170!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for why I'm sparce.. Work work and more work... I'm so busy I can't let myself relax, but I'm so stressed out that I find myself procrastinating and doing other things...

Anyway, 172.8 this morning.

Good morning!  I'm glad you popped in aeao!  I didn't want to lose you!  :)

I know you're working alot, but you have to think of you once in a while.  As the saying goes, "Stop and smell the roses". 

Good job on the 172.8.  Keep on keeping on!  

I wish more people would join us!

I weigh 169 today.  So I'm losing slowly but surely!

How is everyone???

I'm brand new...I literally just joined about fifteen minutes ago, and I'm here for now but will hopefully be leaving soon.  Nothing against, you, you all seem very nice. :)  I'm at 161 right now but just trying to start losing weight so we'll see how long I stay here.  Just saying hi in general. :)

azr1234 ~ Even when you get below 160 you can still stay.  We just give eachother support on our way to our goal.  It doesn't matter what you weigh. Really.  I still belong to the 180 group and I weigh 169! 

Now, about ME!  I'm still hanging in there.  Trying my best to stay below 170!  I don't want to see that 7 again. 

I'm really stressed right now with family issues and when stressed......eat! So trying to eat apples and bananas when I want to put something in my mouth besides chips and cookies! lol

How is everyone?

Thank you very much for welcoming me into this group.  I hope to get back on track and finally kick my bad eating habits.  Just polished of a Special K 90 calorie bar and am resisting eating another. :-p  Wish me luck!

I went above 170 for a minute, but now I'm back to 169.  YAY!

Sprained my knee this am at WalMart in the parking lot.  I slid for like 5 feet!  I thought for sure I was gonna fall.  A big no-no with my back! Yikes! I'd still be laying there if I woulda fallen. lol

We got an ice storm here last night.  It got pretty bad.  My son had a 2 hr delay for school, then he missed the bus! So I had to take him.

Well, have a good day & sure hope someone comes on soon!

 

I went to the dr for my knee. I have a torn meniscus!  So I have to go get an xray done, then MRI after that, then surgery to take the torn stuff out.  Just great.  Now I'm gonna have arthritis in there.  Just what I need.

Weighing 172.2 today.  I've decided not to weigh in every single day and not obsess over it.  I'm not losing weight for some reason, so I'm just going to relax alittle and regroup.  I want to lose more, if I don't who cares!  Maybe my body is trying to tell me this is where I'm suppose to be.  We all have this miracle number we think we should weigh and then torture ourselves to get there.  What the heck!  I'm tired of doing that.

I hope everybody is ok and just busy with xmas coming up.  Talk to ya'all later!

Hey there!

I'm back! I disappeared for a bit due to work craziness. I have been working international and my project ends in January (yaaay...no more Asia meetings at 1am!).

Then, I was in a car accident. I was hit by a drunk driver who was driving a large Ford pickup truck. They're out there...be careful! My car was totaled and I now have whiplash and lower back issues. Nice.  The driver is your typical loser - lots of priors, no drivers license, insurance, etc --- oh and the truck was stolen. He's still in jail....btw.

Due to going to all the doctors' appointments, I now know EXACTLY how much I weigh and it is NOT GOOD.

So, here I am. I'm ready to get back at it.

My challenges are: pain from accident, exhaution from accident and pain meds, meal skipping and working 60-70 hrs/week.

I'm a BIG meal skipper. It's not unusual for me to eat my first meal around 2pm. But, I don't eat crazy at night. I usually eat dinner late, but not a full meal for example, just A STEAK or JUST fish or JUST a salad.

It's a bad habit. I am scared if I eat more food, I'll gain even more weight.

 

 

 

 

 

Hey all, I just weighed in today and I am into the 160's...just barely 169.8lbs, but still it's not the 170's! :cP Anywho, my story is that I started gaining weight in  college, was in a comfortable relationship and packed on 30 pounds. Well that comfortable relationship is now over and I am motivated to lose the weight so I will be more confident :) 10.2 pounds down, only 19.8 more to go til I hit the goal of 150 pounds. The from there I will see if I want to try for 145. I am really looking for a weight loss buddy as well to check in to and keep me accountable, and I can do the same for someone else. :)

Weighing 171 now, so I'm ok there. My knee is a pain I can do without!  Went for my MRI today and definitely have a tear.

Welcome alincoln8187!  I've been trying to get out of the 170's for months!  One day I'll get there.  My lowest was 169 lbs and I see it once in a while, just can't stick it! lol

Nice to see kimber back!  So sorry about the accident.  What a loser.... that guy!  Just what you need, let alone right before xmas!

You should really try to eat more.  Yeah, you'll gain at first bc your metabolism has to get revved up again.  But it works, I had to do the same.  And when I don't eat as much as I should now, I gain!

well, I probably won't be back til after xmas.  So, have a nice holiday!

After xmas my weight shot way up to 178!  Now it's 174.2, so it's coming down.  Ttom is visiting too!  Not bad, losing when he's hanging around! LOL

I went for a couple walks.  One a couple days ago (burned 650 calories) and a short one today.  It's so cold out!  That sun was misleading.  :(

Hope you all are well!

 

Happy New Year everyone!  If anyone comes back.....

Where is everyone at?  I want ya'all to come back. 

I haven't made it back into the 160's again but I'm still trying!  I'll get there, I know I will.....

Hi Everyone!

I'm checking back in  here. I'm feeling much better. I was in a lot of pain for a while from the accident and on lots of pain meds. I'm ready to get back on the weight loss path.

Tomorrow, I start walking again. I am back on 'the diet wagon', too.  I'm taking this weight off this year. I'm determined, although, I know it will not be easy.

Now that the holidays are over and our lives are getting back to normal, anyone with me?

Hello there

Im joining the group - I am 166lbs.   :)
