OK ... Time for honesty ... Since the birth of my son on October 11 to now, I have gained 10 pounds from my "preferred" weight. I have gone off plan, eatten cookies, cakes and all the treats around for the holidays. In my past life, I would have blown this off as "anyone would have gained weight with the holidays". But, the new me needs to be accountable and know that only I choose what I put in my mouth and what happens to my body. I need my Sleever Friends to support me. Keep me accountable. Each Monday I am going to weigh and report my progress. I feel my best around 127 with a bounce of down to 125 to 130. So, my goal is to get back to 127 as soon as I can in a safe and responsible manner. Are you up for supporting me & giving me a kick in the pants if I fall off plan? Thanks in advance guys!

Mini-me,

I am so the same 5'6" I feel good at 127, gonna try to get to 125. I saw 134 and freaked out. The only reason I weighed myself was because my biggest pair of jeans (still size 6) were getting tight. My old MO was to just buy bigger pants thank god I don't need to go there anymore. Not going to weigh myself till the first. The scale will just rule my life! Right now I know what I need to do. check-in also.. Love my sleeve!

Dee - Good for you! Those 130 numbers are terrifying, aren't they. When I first started this journey, I thought I would be happy with 145 and 135 was a dream goal. Now, I never want to see the 130's again.

Yes, I too will be a slave to the scale. I'm prefering to look at it as another tool. If I go past 129.9, time to get my head back in the game.

Best of luck & let me know how you are doing!!!

I am giggling a lil... how I would love to see 13? ...lol... you are doing soooo well to be anywhere near that... good work! =]

Well, I guess I got good Karma for "being accountable". 0.6 pounds down this morning. I'll take that!!!!! :wub:

Thanks ... Only 3.9 to go. I WILL DO THIS!

happy for you, I agree w/being accountable. I will weigh myself on Sunday the 1st. I have been logging my food for 7days now. I really did get off track. I feel better eating more protein!

You go girl..I am right behind you

Good job!

I think y'all are doing great!! Keep up all that good work! To me, any weight of mine starting with a 13___ is a pipe dream--at 6'2", I think I'd have to amputate a limb or two to get there. LOL But y'all GO!

Down 0.2. Today is going to be hard. Potluck central at work! Gotta find ham first then I will be too full for the rest of the "sliders" Candy is my nemisis repeat....

Have a blessed Easter, no matter what you believe, spring is upon us.....

LOL yep me too! When I had my body fat % checked, they mentioned my lean mass weighs nearly 120 Lbs. I'd like to see what 10 Lbs of body fat would look like on me, however - that just isn't too healthy for a woman of 5'7... Ha!

Isn't it weird how different we all are? If I got back down to my goal weight (-5 pounds) and had a tummy tuck, I would be in the 11X number and be completely normal for my body build. But alas, even with the 5 pounds gone, I still have the extra skin. Oh well - that may happen some day. But for now, I'll take the -5 pounds and be happy (with my shirt on and shorts to cover the thigh) LOL!

Mini... I am starting to think that a TT is the ONLY way I will ever get to goal... *sighs* x

ok ... forgot to update. Another 0.2 down. Not a lot, but it is in the right direction.

Will be hitting the gym tonight. Wasn't able to go last week due to major migraines.

I dream of a TT ... but I keep using the money for other things such as Baby Adoptions. Guess the baby was more important! LOL!
