The scale is showing I'm down to 122.4 kg or 269.28 pounds, for a loss this week of 1.1 pounds! :yay:

I'm so happy, it's like a dream after spending over a decade in the high 280's to 300 range, forever seesawing back and forth. I don't know if I'll make the remaining 4.28 pounds to my July challenge goal of 265 but I'll be darn close! So when I add up my other weekly losses it's a total of 29.82 pounds in 12 weeks. I'm like the incredible shrinking woman and I love it!

They had a farewell party for one of the staff yesterday and served a chocolate cake with cherry pie filling in the middle and I wasn't even tempted! :nono: I said "No thanks, I don't eat that stuff anymore" and one of the nurses asked which plan I was on so I told her, and she goes on to tell me the AMA just gave it the thumbs up...no shit sherlock...LOL! :lol: Then she went on to say, it's high protein isn't it...and my response was "I don't sit down and eat a turkey for breakfast" :lol: LMAO

I'm happy and satisfied with my WOL and continue to strive to make these healthy lifestyle choices for my well being. Now if I could just convince DH to quit smoking life would be perfect (ya right..LOL)

Wishing you all a lovely Saturday full of sunshine and weight loss!

I am so proud of you and also so jealous. I started induction two weeks ago at 273 and as of today the scale says 280. I have followed it to the letter, have been drinking over a gallon of water a day and have exercised more (No, I'm not gaining because of muscle). I know it has to be water, but I so want to be in the 260s. :cry:

I'm not going to rain on your parade. You deserve a lot of props. :dazzle:

Keep up the good work. I am very impressed.

Great job Nicole. It is so wonderful to hit or get very close to a mini goal. (I should set one for myself.) I hope it keeps coming off. Maybe both of us will be posting that we are in the 250s soon. I keep tetering between 258 and 260. Maybe we can both keep going and experience a Whoosh.

Congratulations! :Party: :Party: :Party:

Weekly weigh-in results are here....I'm an official 121.4 kg or 267 pounds which is a loss of 2.2 pounds for week #13 (must be lucky for me)!

I'm sooooo happy with this news, the only thing I can think that I did differently was not eat a Ross bar almost daily (I was pmsing in weeks past) so I know they likely do slow me down and I can moderate my intake. WOW - 2.2 pounds....I'm in heaven! I might even make my mini goal of 265 for the July Challenge!

Spreading some joy and love around!

Weekly weigh-in results are here....I'm an official 120.9 kg or 265.98 pounds which is a loss of 1.1 pounds for week #14, so I came SOOO close to my goal of 265 for July. :yay:

I wasn't perfect, I skipped a meal here and there :nono: and didn't get as much water or fiber into me as I think I should have (should is such a dirty word :rolleyes: ) but I did well considering I was under an enormous amount of stress! Progress, not perfection. I've also noticed that my jeans are too loose so I've dug out an old belt I haven't work in years and it's on the 3rd of 6 holes already...WOOHOO! :yay:

Wishing you all to be a big bunch of losers like me! :p
