OK, I am here for support in counting down the last 20 - 25 pounds. I have been at a standstill since June.

I have lost 85 pounds, I now weigh about 195. At 5'11" I need to get down below 180 to get into the healthy BMI range. so I am aiming at 172-175....So about 20 to go.

Part of me doesn't believe I will ever get there. Never been there for more than about 5 minutes...lol! So I need to work on a positive attitude.

I am at a fill of 3.0 in a 4.0. I could get a small fill, but should be able to do it on this fill. It varies so much from week to week. Some days I am able to eat anything and others I am tight, so that is a bit confusing.

I have taken the summer off the band rules, been imbibing in too much ice cream, chips and booze. So there is my confession. I also took a break from the gym, so I am vowing to go back TOMORROW. My 13 year old updated my IPOD, so I am R.E.A.D.Y.

Please join me in a count down to goal. All support and advice is appreciated....

Thanks Losingjusme!

Thanks Chickie!

Argon, you won't drag me down. I hear ya on the last few. That last pound took a huge effort. I am having to kick it up a notch with the exercise. I am currently working out with a cop. Ha, she is one tough cookie. I wouldn't want to be a criminal with her after me. :paranoid

Vegaswildflower, my current goal is at the top of my BMI for a healthy weight. When I get there, I am declaring goal. But more than likely, I will want to lose a few more, but at least I will be in the healthy range and won't obsess on the numbers. Then any extra pounds will be a total gift.

Updated photo.

You look great. Almost to goal! Way to go.

Ok, I spoke too soon. I seem to work in weight loss spurts. I was stuck with 6lbs to go for almost a month, and now this morning I wake up and I'm down a couple pounds!

3.6lbs left!

Just about in tears over here. I broke into the 70's this morning. 178-179. Honestly, I don't remember being in the 70s SINCE THE 70s. The 70s is where I want to stay. (goal 175- BMI 24.4) So wow! I am amazed with myself. I have been stepping it up at the gym and focusing on clean eating.

GROOOOOOVVEY MAAAAN!!!!

So roughly 4 pounds to goal
