Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Hi there friends, Well, it is official... I am under 300 pounds now. I weighed in today (my official weigh in day) at 296.3. I am sooooo excited!!!!!!!!!!! Not sure how all I am going to celebrate, but my mother says she wants to help me celebrate (of course in a non-food way). I think my next goal will be to get to 275 pounds. It will take some work, but eventually I will get there. Well, it's time for lunch so I better go. Just wanted to share that I have lost another 3.8 pounds since last Saturday and now am officially under 300 pounds. 340/296.3/275 Wow feels good to be able to right 296.3.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 , I'm so happy for you! Hey, your mother wants to help you celebrate. Suggest she take you to Wal-mart and let you choose (within her price range of course) some kind of niffy diet or exercise product that you might enjoy using to keep yourself on track. Maybe something you can use indoors when the weather is bad.But since it is a celebration of course it would have to be a FUN product.Just a suggestion. ~:~The Personal Touch~:~Tags, Stats, or anything else personalized with your name.Everything here is personalized!http://free.hostdepartment.com/t/thepersonaltouchMy Personal Web Site Official Weigh In Hi there friends, Well, it is official...

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Congrats . Setting goals will keep you focused. make sure you journal how good it feels to be under 300 and look back at it if the scale starts going the other way. NH...

I am shooting for my 20 pound loss...my 1st real goal is 250 and I am about 4 pounds away from that...than that 225 mark.....being under 200 will be a HUGE deal for me!!! Haven't seen 'that' number in probably close to 15 years!!! It will be a sweet day.....I just have to get the negative tape player out of my head....the failure one....you know...the one that says: you have done this before....you have never made it....what is different this time???

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hey Ann, I didn't think of that. Wow 50 pounds gone will be great. I'll make that my mini mini goal. Oh as far as eating goes I try to eat the way my diabetic clinic told me to eat, and that is 45 to 60 carbs (Try to stay as close to 45 as poss.) per meal. Eat three meals a day. Then can have a night snack of up to 15 carbs. That is what they told me to do. I am trying to find things that aren't so high in fat too. They didn't tell me to do that, but I'm doing that on my own. Of course I have big mess ups like ding dongs and donuts. I'm trying though. 340/296.3/275Awesome! but you're missing the next obvious goal..... 50 pounds gone! Only 6.3 pounds to go!What eating plan are you following? I looked back through messages and all I saw was the fasting and donut binge plan. I assume you have something else in mind though.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I have a hard time keeping journals. I start a journal and then I think I could use that note book for such and such and I rip out the journal pages and throw them away. I might try doing a journal on my computer though. Then I wouldn't have to worry about ripping it out to use the paper for something else. 340/296.3/275 Re: Official Weigh InCongrats .

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Thanks, ...I am feeling like I am ready to defeat myself the last couple days....Like I don't deserve this....anybody ever felt that way? And how do you tell yourself you ARE worth it??? It is so hard putting myself 1st to do this for ME.....I have always been taking care of others and putting myself last.....it is really hard when I have a husband who doesn't 'adore' me....ÜÜ Blessings!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Kathey, >>my 1st real goal is 250 Mine, too, but I have 29.5 to go to reach it. I last saw it in 2001 for about a week or 2. >being under 200 will be a HUGE deal for me!!! Haven't seen 'that' number in probably close to 15 years!!! It'll be 29 years this November since I was last under 200. Good luck, and keep up the good work! Sue in NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Kathey, You really do need to put yourself 1st. If you don't take care of yourself how will you be able to take care of others? You need to do this for you though, not for other people. I have felt that way by the way "Like I don't deserve it", I have to fight that feeling all the time. Just keep fighting it and letting yourself know that yes you do deserve things and you do deserve to take care of yourself. You are a worthy person. You are unique and God created you to be you and you deserve good things. 340/296.3/275 Re: Official Weigh InWhat a HUGE ego booster!!! You GO Girl!!! I am so proud of you!!!
