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:

Woo Hoo! Great job guys!

Unfortunately I am still at 12 lbs to go...but I'm physically changing, so I must be at a plateau...I've still got time

Physically changing...that reminds me. I've noticed that since I'm working out 5 days a week, my legs are really taking shape...FINALLY!!! However, I've noticed that my legs will be smooth and muscular then all of a sudden a bulging blob of fat sticks out!!! Seriously, my legs look freaky. They used to be all fat and jiggly, but know there is muscle with actual bulges of fat in random places!! Does anyone else have that...and more importantly, will it go away?

You guys are too funny! But, it's true. I swear some mornings I wake up and my belly is in a different shape from when I went to sleep! Our bodies adjust in leaps and bounds some weeks and I, too, end up with lumps and bumps out of the blue. So far...things seem to even themselves out after awhile. I'd say it's probably a good sign and means your body is readjusting to the new you!

Phew!! Thanks LapBandit!! I was worrying that I'd be lumpy forever!! LOL!! Update time!!!! 8 pounds to go!!!

I'm sorry everyone, I was trying to keep up and make sure the list was updated but I've gotten behind. So, I went back through the last 5 updates and tried to make sure the totals are accurate. Please take a look and make sure your's doesn't need adjusted. Sorry!!

Do you all realize how close we're getting to those goals?!! It's incredible! We're unstoppable!

As far as our next goal...I'm wondering who would be up for a Valentine's goal once our Christmas challenge ends? Anyone interested or have another idea?

Valentine's goal sounds good. Much better than Presidents Day or something like that!!! LOL!!

I just got another CC in my band on Friday, so I hope to be dropping my lbs to go very soon!

OK no news to report :grouphug:

I am struggling with eating the wrong things and drinking too soon after meals. Only been waiting about 30 min instead of an hour. But seriously my body is still changing. My belly is shaped diffreent from week to week and it feels like it is getting denser as it gets smaller. I figure this is partially a plateau in combination with needing a fill. I can eat way too much again and can eat fairly fast. I haven't pb'd in months, only had 3 total ever. While this is a good thing, it is for lack of restriction not for being good about choices and bite sizes and all that. I hate to say it but I need a fill bad. The only time I can't gulp Water is first thing in the morning. When I eat I feel restriction initially but then it goes away really fast. Time to make an appointment :huggie: If I don't I will never get through the holidays and meet my goal. I have a little more than 4 weeks to reach it

Well, two interesting things happened this weekend. One is good, one is not good.

First the good...I volunteered to run an errand for a friend at the mall and the parking space I found meant I had to park at Macy's and walk through. Well...I was walking past all the pretty cocktail dresses and started thinking about my office holiday party so I figured I'd check out the selection. Mainly to see what size I was into, not because Macy's is where I can afford to shop!! Anyway, can you believe I found a simple, but pretty, black cocktail dress and decided what the heck, I'll try it on. It fit and I actually decided that I might fit into the next size down so I tried and it fit!!! I actually bought a size 18 "normal looking" dress plus it was massively on sale so I got a $90 dress for $30!! I actually had to hold back tears as I walked out of the store because I couldn't believe I just bought a cute little black dress in a size I don't think I've ever bought before. I can't believe it!

Now today, I had to be a dork and try eating a Granny Smith Apple normally, skin and all. WOW...be careful with apples folks! I slimed and slimed then PB'ed til I worried about slipping my band. YIKES. Dumb move.
