  1. Well today I officially hit goal weight. 135 pounds lost and it took me 9 months and 20 days. I thought I'd be more emotional than I am about it but I'm not. I'm not sure how I feel about it actually.

      Thanks! I really like the success stories...they give me hope as I start this journey!

      That's amazing, I understand not knowing how to feel. some days I feel like I'm saying goodbye to an old friend who treated me horribly in the end. My addiction and self sabotage kept me oddly safe. Now that I'm free I find my thinking about it has changed and ask myself why and how. I'm finally free of the addiction that kept me at bay. Be proud and celebrate you!

      Huge congrats, my friend! I know that it has been a journey, so I hope you take a moment to bask in your success a bit! :)

  2. Well according to some random BMI chart I am no longer morbidly obese, I'm just Overweight now. So, yay! Also, on day 23 of my Vegetarian journey and honestly, I'm not going back to eating meat again. I feel like I've redicovered food again.

      I could never see being a vegan, but congrats on your weight loss!

  3. Day 8 of my 30 Day Vegetarian Challenge. Seriously, I am loving this way of eating. Plus I've lost 5 pounds in a week and I'm eating all the time. High quality, protein rich veggie based food.

      what types of veggies are you eating for protein? i'm really thinking of doing the vegetarian road..

      all info would be greatly appreciated

  4. 12 more pounds till I hit my goal weight of 225. Inititally it was 230 but I still feel fatter than I should. Though I will say that this 30 day Vegetarian challenge has really been working out well for me. I'm getting plenty of protein and steadily losing weight.

      Congrats, keep your goal in sight. I changed my goal weight to 205 after reaching my doc's goal for me of 235. Now I'm 223.

  5. I know I haven't been posting much but I am 11 pounds from goal. What a journey this has been so far. I'm still technically "fat" but everything is different. I still love my sleeve 8 months out.

  7. The weight is coming off a little slower now because I have to be just a little more dilligent in what I eat. But I am doing it. Only 17 more pounds to goal. What a journey this has been.

  8. Whoa! Whooshed right past 250 last night. I had stalled for so long and now in the last couple of weeks I've lost over 10 pounds. My body is still very sore from working out but I am still going out on a long hike today through the North Georgia Mountains.

      Thanks everyone. Training for this 10k has really motivated me to finish this last stretch out strong. I have about 19 more pounds till I reach goal weight.

  9. Well it's official, I am training for a 10k. I love the energy around training for these things.

  10. The weather was nice enough to hike yesterday. It was amazing outside, hiking up the side if that mountain. I got to the top, made a renewed commitment to my health and hiked the whole thing again. I wasn't tired or worn out... I was healing and for that I am grateful.

      Awesome! I love hiking. And so do my dogs. I can't wait for some warmer weather. There are some good small hiking spots around the city, but the good ones require about a 30 minute travel.

      I am fortunate enough to have a ton of hiking places in Atlanta. It warmed up finally to about 65 degrees, perfect hiking weather.

      Congrats endless80...I am just down the road from you...and indeed it was beautiful weather Saturday...got outside myself...congrats on your hike!!!

  11. 6 months in and 105 pounds down. At 255 pounds I am now officially the smallest I have ever been in my entire adult life and I'm 34. I think maybe I was at 255 when I was 15 but only very briefly. That's pretty awesome.

  12. Struggling now. I gained 2 pounds so I am back up to 265. I can eat anything but that doens't mean I should.

      Two steps back isn't going to put u under...u can come out of the funk ur in right now. I found out also that I could eat anything too, rice nuts u name it but in the last few days,eating clean taste & feels a whole lot better. :)

      Eat protein first.. When I do..my tummy gets full in no time and I cannot take another bite. Move forward and don't let fears hold I back. .. What was done is dine. Now get back to basics.

  13. I am 4 pounds away from a 100 pound loss. I'll take 100 pounds in 5 months!

  14. So guess who now fits into a size 38 pair of jeans now for the FIRST TIME IN MY ADULT LIFE? Yup, this guy. I've never been less than a size 40. Increadible.

  15. Finally broke the 270's! Man that stall lasted a while and I do not know how I did it since yesterday. Being snowed in only afforded me to eat junk and processed garbage but I still managed to lose 2 pounds last night. My body is so weird sometimes.

  16. Went through the closet today and found 4 full trash bags of old clothes that are too large for me to wear anymore. It was a cathartic experience. Entering the next phase now. I'm ready to finish what I've started, for the first time in my entire life.

    1. Carlotta1

      Carlotta1

      Good for you....It must be a great feeling. I myself had clothes ranging from size 4 to size 16.. Back In my size 12 .. Won't have to worry about new wardrobe for sometime. Goal is size 8.

  17. I am still losing weight, which I should count me blessings for (even though it is slow) but I need to start making better food decisions.

  18. 280. I haven't been this small in over 14 years.

      you must be feeling great. congrat's you are doing fabulous

  23. I feel like my body is starting to get "squishy" (if that makes sense). I need to get my ass into the gym to minimize this as much as possible.

  24. The weirdest thing happened recently. In the last 2 days I've noticed a sudden ability to eat more food.

  25. I am finally under 300 pounds! In my entire adult life (15 years) this has happened three times, including now. I wil NEVER go back!!
