Congrats on being out of the 220's and having such a great weight loss this week! Have you hit the 20 pound mark too? It's always so much fun when you hit several milestones at once.

I'm really close to the 20 pound mark, I need to lose 1.8 pounds lol. So next week should be the week! I just can't believe I'm losing so fast, it's kind of scary, because in the back of my mind I know that plateau is gonna come when I'm least expecting it.
 
Can't wait till I can update my ticker!!! I'm so tempted to update it today but I wont! I think I am meeting my 30lb lost goal by June 1st. I just can't believe it. On June 1st I'll have been on this journey for 10 weeks. 30 pounds in 10 weeks?!?! I hope I can do it!!!!

Sadly, people cannot tell a difference in my appearance. Hopefully once I get to the 30 pound mark it will be more noticeable. I'll have lost 10% of my weight.

Pre-grats! Keep hard at it and it's definatly possible. I'm hoping to reach 30 pounds lost by next Wednesday, but I'm not sure if I'll make it. That would be 4 pounds in 9 days. Possible, but it'll be a little tough.

I hear you on people not noticing. I've lost around 26 pounds now, but no one has noticed other then the people who know that I'm trying to lose weight. And while they might actually see a differance, they are also looking for it, you know? Ok, I guess my mother in law did ask if I'd lost weight, but I'm not counting her because she's asked me that nearly every time I've seen her for years. (She's very passive aggressive, so I think she was just hinting that I needed to) It was nice to tell her that yes, I had lost weight though. I keep waiting for my mom to notice, but she hasn't yet.
 
I've lost nearly 2 stone and people don't notice (apart from the boy and parents but only cause they know I've done it!) You're doing it for you though and you're doing so well :D
 
217.4! Despite the pizza and icecream at the boardwalk!!! YES!!!! Job interview today guys, wish me luck. My life kinda depends on getting a job at this point.
 
I got the job! Doesn't pay much but i'm so desperate for a job right now I took it. The good part is, it's at Macys! So when I lose more weight and am ready to buy some new clothes, i'll have an employee discount!
 
w00h00!

Double congrats - the weight loss so far and the job! Just think of all the clothes!!
 
Thanks everyone. I'm super excited to start next week!


I'm not expecting a big loss this week. I haven't lost ANY weight in the past 3 days :( But I'm not gonna let small weight loss upset me. I gotta keep reminding myself I do have a thyroid disease so sometimes it'll be harder. Speaking of thyroid... I ran out of my thyroid medicine for 3 days and it really took a toll on me. So low on energy, all I could manage was 30 minutes on the elliptical on my workout days. I usually walk 4 miles too. I took my pill this morning, already starting to feel better. I plan on walking after I post this in fact!

Also, I tried on a dress yesterday and for the first time in a long time I felt ok trying clothes on. Trying the dress on, I could see the difference minus 20 pounds has made. It really made my day! I didn't buy the dress since i'm broke, but with this new job i'm starting next week, that will change!

How is everyone doing this week?
 
Trying on clothes is so much more fun once you're dropping pounds! It's lovely to be able to try things on without the impending sense of doom!! And to be able to leave the shop not on the verge of tears for a change ;) Hopefully you can buy the dress when you can paid!!!
 
I am so freaking mad right now. I went to my sisters for the weekend. I made bad food choices. I gained 5.5 pounds.... the problem with this is that I didn't even eat five pounds worth of food. my calories for saturday and today were about a pound and a half worth...
Yesterday I was really bad, today not so much. I'm just really mad at myself. How the hell could i gain 5.5 pounds in not even 2 days? I hope its water weight, but I doubt it is because my body sucks and the second I eat like a normal person should, I fudging gain weight...
 
I'm nearly 100% sure it's water weight. In order to gain 5.5 pounds of fat, you would have had to eat 19,250 calories over your maintanence amount! Now, you said you were bad this weekend, but come on, you'd be sick if you ate that much!

Drink a LOT of water and don't weigh yourself for a few days to give it time to flush out. I bet that drops right off.
 
Mizzie I weighed myself this morning, hahaha I'm lame. I drank 3 liters of water last night. Now I'm .9 pounds heavier. Hopefully I'm back to normal in another day. Just sucks because this definitely is going to make me miss my mini goal of 30 pounds by june 1st. I have 4 weeks now to reach 208.4 and I'm currently 217.4 Bleh! I'm gonna have to push myself extra hard this week I guess.

This will might be good though, I start my job tomorrow so I wont be tempted to eat anything for 7 hours (except on break)
