Well it seems there are several of us who are currently trying to get to twoterville. So if you are one of us trying for it please tell us your goals and we can support each other as we try to get our tricksy scales to be nice and cooperative.

NOTE: So many of the people who participate in this thread have made it in to twoterville that we have really morphed to include passing thru twoterville as well as into it. This has happened over time, we keep growing, lol, but in a good way :eek:

Speaking of which, I was getting dressed this morning and decided to wear my favorite black skirt that I haven't had the opportunity to wear for a while. Well, it was so big it sat on my hips, widest part and with a little tug would come right off. It is a size 30, I guess my 30's are just way too big, it is now on my ever growing pile of clothes to be given away. I am gonna need some new clothes soon

thanks for your kind words everyone...and..

YAY MOLLY!!!!! I'm so proud of you. You're doing great!!!!

Ok the before and after pics are posted on my big news thread. Didn't want to go thruogh all the cutting and pasting twice, lol.

But I'll give ya'll the link, and no I did not brush my hair this morning, and no I do not go to school with my hair like that, lol. Please excuse my grooming and lack of makeup but one was the morning of surgery and the other... well today is my day off from looking all fancy, hehe.

And thanks for all the encouragement

Molly, you are too cool! You look fabulous! You can really tell a difference in your overall shape! You lucky dog! I wish my bod was changing as fast!

PS-I like the blonde hair better!

THanks LapBandit, I like the blonde better too I have naturally blonde for half of my life and as I've gotten older my hair has darkened to light brown, yuck on me. I let it go natural (heaven only knows why) and changed it back to blonde when I started school. Blonde is definitely more me :eek:

Congrats on making this milestone, Molly!! You're looking Good!!!

You look great Molly. A few weeks ago I also colored my hair the same shade of blonde that yours is. I look so much happier. hahaha

We need a term, akin to "Reaching Twoterville" but for getting under 250. Any ideas? Twoterville and Onederland are just too darned far apart not to celebrate the midpoint.

How 'bout "at the crossroads" between twoterville and onederland?

How 'bout MidTown!

I like "at the crossroads" but "midtown" has a certain ring to it. I like it!

I like midtown too!!!:biggrin1:

OK, MidTown it is! I love it! Thanks, guys.

So, now that I'm officially under 275 (the "crossroads" between entering Twoterville and reaching MidTown, wink), I'm starting to really think ahead. I guess somewhere along the way I've started to trust the band. That's so weird. I actually believe I'll make it to MidTown and to Onederland. It's put a whole new spin on my life.

I've got a job interview tomorrow that I wouldn't have gone on 3 months ago (mostly because I really do love my current job, but now I just want to keep a few irons in the fire as well and know what's out there).

The boldest move I've made is taking steps toward a relationship with someone I've been interested in for a long time, but have always kept it totally platonic because I felt the time wasn't right. Well, the time may be right soon enough and I've started planting the seeds.

I guess that's it for tonight. Hope all is well with you guys.

That's Exciting! Taking Steps Toward A Relationship Is Big!

I Am Almost At Twoterville Only 4 Lbs Away. I Probably Won't Make Any Steps Intil I Get To Onederland. I Should Feel Comfortable By Then.

Julie you're my hero! You sound so confident and secure and I'm very happy for you. I wish you luck w/ the new guy! You'll get him...what's not to love?!
