17 more lbs.....



Recommended Posts

I've got 17 lbs to a healthy weight and I need to get my act together!!! I've lost 55lbs so far. 17 to healthy, 27 to goal

Here's what I've been doing -

  • Spinning 3x a week
  • Walking 2-4 miles every day
  • Sticking to high Protein, veggies, fruits

Here's what's TOUGH

  • Cravingsssss - especially for sugar, or salty!!!

These last few pounds are tough but I can do it!!! Anyone else in the same position?

Yeah, I was there September of last year and I've pretty much stalled at 25 lbs from my personal goal weight. I've just been maintaining for the last year and I'm OK with that. Looking forward to after the Holidays to take another shot at >160.

Unfortuantly yes, I m

down from 225 to 162 with a goal of 140. Ive been stuck in

the 160s for a loooong time, I finally got to 158 2 weeks ago, then ate poorly and I m stuck at 162 , again! this last 20 lbs is not easy as my body is fighting the weight loss end, all normal per my Dr.

That is me, exactly!!!

I started doing a lot of toning .. Mat work and pilates .. And my shape is changing so drastically (smaller), that I'm not so dead-art on reaching the 140 anymore. It would be nice, I think, but I'm looking really healthy at 160 and getting firmer every day.

Wow! It's so great to know there are other people with very similar starting and current weights!

My body finally started shedding lbs this week and I'm down to 161! It's funny that it coincides with a taking a break from super intense cardio.

11lbs to healthy weight - I'm sure it will be tough but feels more feasible than ever.

Thanks for the tips on toning - such a great idea!!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
