I DID IT! I DID IT! I LOST 100 POUNDS!!! I got on the scale this morning thinking there would be bad news and I lost 2 pounds! I'm so excited!!!!!:clap2:

Thanks Elisabeth...21 pounds away but getting closer. I have my brother's wedding this week so I know I'm not concentrating on what I'm eating. I'll be ready to go, full force, next week! I want to be close to my goal by my anniversary. I won't be around so good luck to everyone!

I'm afraid to make a commitment to anything this month! I have my brother's wedding on the 8th and we're moving into our new house the end of the month! I'm a bit overwhelmed, so I'll be thrilled with any losses this month! Actually, breaking the 100 mark this month would do it for me! Good luck everyone!

Finally a pound. Hope it picks up for us all soon. Hang in there.

We just sold our house and are moving in a month so I spend the weekend doing a lot of cleanup and packing! At least I didn't have too much time to eat. My only "bad" was on Sunday, when we went for Hibachi for my step-son's birthday. I did okay on the meal but HAD to have a piece of ice cream cake! I've been pretty stalled for a while but surprisingly I somehow managed to start fitting into 14's which didn't fit a few weeks ago!

I'm having the worst time logging in here. It's driving me crazy! Hope all of our losses pick up next week!!!

I wasn't restricted after my third either. It takes time. As hard as it sounds, you really need to have patience with this.

I'm in the middle of a plateau right now. I'm trying like crazy to not get frusterated. I know that as long as I can maintain through it, I'll be fine.

I've never used an eliptical. I don't think I'm coordinated enough to do it. LOL!!! I use the treadmill 6 days a week...I put on the TV, play a DVD of one of my favorite bands and I don't even realize I'm working out.

I don't know what it is....I'm just totally stalled! I guess I really need to watch my intake more closely. I just don't seem to have the head for it right now.

Me too. Sometimes I can get in, sometimes I can't. I pm'd Alex about it. Maybe everyone should so he can see how big the problem is. It's really annoying, isn't it?

Steph, glad to know you're doing better. Don't worry about the weight gain, as Pelo said, that'll be off in no time.

I've been having login problems so I'd better post now that I'm able to log in. I'm getting frusterated...this fill didn't give me any restriction at all. I'm going to wait until after my brother's wedding on June 8th and get another. I think I'm stress eating. We just sold our house and are moving in a month so I'm freaking about all that I have to do. Plus we're dealing with some family issues. My mother says I can't complain because even with all of that going on, I'm not gaining. I'm still losing a pound here and there. But I'm greedy....I want more! More! MORE!!! LOL!!! Elisabeth, that sounds like a good snack but I can't eat raw carrots, darnit!

Pelo, good to stay on mushies for a day. You're probably irritated now. Good of you to get to the gym too. I know I wouldn't have lost nearly as much without it.

Welcome back Marcy! And don't disappear again! We're here for support and we alll seem to suffer setbacks!

The "edit" in this new board is messed up. It has smilies between every letter! I gave up. You all are just gonna have to deal with my typos...LOL! BTW, this fill had done nothing! I don't feel any restriction and I haven't lost either. I think I need to change up my routine...

Josette, I felt the same way...I had no idea that I looked that bad! No one can accuse us of having a poor self image. LOL!

Katie, it may take a couple of fills before you really start feeling some restriction, so don't worry if you don't feel it right now.

Congrats Serendipity! I'm wearing a 16 dress for my brother's wedding in June too! Woo Hoo!!

I always get really tight right before my TOM. I was told it was due to some swelling during that time. I would recommend you wait and see what happens. I'm pretty sure that after your TOM, you'll feel much better. I also noticed that I'm not as tight in the evening as opposed to morning. Maybe work your meals around when you feel a little looser.

My husband and parents apparently had difficulty keeping it quiet! I was angry at first but now, I really don't mind. Although it is strange when everyone watches me eat. LOL!

Well, there may not be a solution but at least we know what's happening.
