Hi,

Long time no talk. Well, I finally did it. I broke thru my blasted plateau of 223#s I was stuck at for 2 whole months and weigh a steady 209 for the last week. I was hesitant to post the new weight for fear I would bounce back up to 223. But I have been here for a whole week so I am confident that the scale will not betray me and shoot back up. Grrr, I hate that #! I can’t believe I am finally so close to breaking the dreaded 200# curse! Possibly this month! I now know that I lose weight much slower than most because of all the blasted meds I am on, so I don’t really expect to lose these next 10 #s in 2 weeks, but it’s a nice thought. At least right now it seems attainable. But I do know I will be under 200#s by the end of summer. I can’t imagine not.

Well, gotta go,

Best of luck…

OK, this is weird. I weighed Saturday morning and had lost only 1#. Just for the heck of it, I weighed this am and had a 3# loss! Whatever, but I’ll take it J I now weigh 220#s.

I can’t believe next week I will be in the teens! Then soon I will break the 200 # curse and be under 200. It seems so close but so far.

My clothes don't fit any looser, but I had only gone up 2 pants sizes from weighing 200 to 250 #s. At 200 I was a 20-22 and at 250 I was a 24. I can now get into my 22s but not my 20s. I am so looking forward to getting in a size 18! That really seems far off.

I can’t believe it! I had cortisone shots in my back this week and was warned that most people experience a weight gain. They said it would be small but not too hard to get rid of. So I braced myself and really controlled what I put in my mouth this week. I felt like I did pretty good, too. Well this morning I weighed in at 223#s! Yep, that’s a 4 # loss!!!

Well, last week I weighed in at 231. Yup, that's a 1 # gain. This week I am 227!!! That's a 4# loss for this week!

i talked to my dr. about all my mini platues and she said that this is how my body loses weight. I get stuck at a certain weight for a few weeks then have a good loss break thru. She says this is my body and metabolism adjusting to the weighty loss. Since hearing that I haven't been depressed on my few weeks of not losing. It's not a steady 2#s a week, but it evens out to the same.

I finally broke through a mini plateau I was at for 3 weeks! I was stuck at 234 and just weighed in at 230! Yea, me!

Hey all, Ever wonder where all the people are who have been useing SF 100 lbs to go site longer than we have? Is anyone out there who has lost 50, 75, 100 lbs? We would LOVE to hear from you!!! :) :) :)

I plateaued there for 2 weeks til I finally broke through with help from you all. I Now I have lost 7, making my total loss 15 lbs! I was in dis belief when the scale said 235. I kept waiting for it to go up. I haven't seen it that low in months.
