Hello! I just moved here. I'm at 236 but don't really want to stay in this town too long. I lived here in 230ville once before and I'm happy to be back compared to where I just came from but I'm really ready to move on down the road.

Everyone, I never thought I would be back but this will be my 3rd time! I hope it will be my last. I am starting the fall challenge Oct 6th in two days and will weigh in on Sat. I know I am somewhere in the 230's. I hope once I leave here I won't return. I let my self go this summer & went completely off my diet eating ALL the wrong things! I went from 210ville to 230ville just that quick. I hope my stay will be short!

In 2009 I lost 73 lbs. but I stopped eating well, and working out and now I back where I never wanted to be the 230's again. But as of last Sunday August 19th I started to take my life back. I have been eating well and working out all week and I have dropped almost 6 lbs. So I am here until I am gone which will be by the end of this week. 3lbs. to go!!!!!!! love ya but can't wait to leave ya.

Hi everyone - I'm rededicating to weight loss after a couple of years. I just joined TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) and thought SparkPeople would be a good supplement to TOPS meetings. My goal is to be out of 230-ville by August 27. I'm excited to get back on the interstate.

Hey Team! I'm not officially a part of the team yet as I don't weigh in until Sunday, July 29th. I'm pretty confident that things will be official then. I'm excited to start this new journey but I really don't want to be here for more than a few weeks. I'm going to aggressively try to leave town by August 19th!! lol We shall see! :)

Hi everyone! My name is Jen and I just restarted sparkpeople a little over a week ago. I'm in 230ville right now and looking to move into 220ville soon! I'm starting out just watching what I eat, but very soon I plan to introduce exercise. I've been sick for a few weeks so as soon as my lungs recover enough I plan to start running. Hopefully my stay here isn't too long, but I hope to get to know you all while I am here!
Jen I can do this. I WILL do this. I have no one to blame but me and I WILL succeed. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, usually through an antibody response.

Just checking in here before I leave the team. I was curious to find out exactly when I joined this 'Ville'. It was 5/11. I officially hit '220-Ville' on the 22nd of June. So 5.5 weeks? Longer than I expected, but hopefully I've learned the lessons that will allow this to be my final journey through the land of 230-Ville. See you all in the new land!

I'm moving into my apartment in 230-ville later this week. My "official" weigh-in is on Thursday but I cheated and checked this morning and I'm at 239.8 lbs. I'm packing my things now and look forward to moving and meeting my neighbors on Thursday!

I'm so glad I found this team!! I am so ready to leave 230-ville because I've been back and forth here for a while now. Seeing 220-ville would be an extra boost for me because I haven't seen it in over a year and a half, maybe a little longer! I look forward to getting to know everyone while I'm here!

Hi,
I just weighed in at 239.6. it took me almost 6 months to lose this 10 pounds, so my aim is to lose the next in 3 months. I want to lose at SUSTAINABLE levels. and not over do it. i don't mind if i only lose 30 or 40 pounds in a year as long as its something i can maintain, y'know.
anywyas, i hope to make this a slow drive thru 230ville.
thanx.

Hi, My name is Linda and Iv'e been here before. Gained weight during the summer when most people are losing it! Summertime is the worst for me. Camping, hamburgers, hotdogs and more hotdogs! You get it! Itdidn't take long to get up to 238. It's sooo easy to pile the weight on but sooo hard to lose it! I guess everybody can relate to that. I hope my stay will be real short. Linda

HI, just made it to the interstate and hope there isn't any traffic jams along the way. I have teetered on the edge of 240 for so long, I just wanted to wait until I was at least good pound under. Felt really good to see that one pound. It can make all the difference in motivation. Looking forward to working my butt off and head south through the fall/winter.

Hi I'm Mary and I'm straddling between 230 ville and 220 ville. I tend to bounce back and forth the weights of 231 and 229. I am hoping that by joining this team I will some how get dedicated enough to no longer bounce around.
Anyways I look forward to seeing you around!

Hi everyone!
My name is Alisa and I have adopted 230-ville as your new Team Leader!
I love taking weight-loss 10 pounds at a time and I think we should all have that opportunity so I'm not going to let a beautiful place like 230-ville become a Ghost Town!
Welcome to all the new members and I hope you'll see that this town will be alive and kicking !!

I over did it yesterday but it sure paid off. I'm down 5.4 lbs for the past week and 10.8 lbs for the month. I made my first mini goal of 10 lbs!! I'm now 236.2. This is the most I've lost in over 8 months.

Hi I am just entering at 238 today. I'm trying to make smaller goals so I can actually feel like I am accomplishing something instead of being frustrated at having so far to go. I have been back on track for 3 and a half weeks and I finally have the full support of my husband for how I need to do things. He is of the mind that you should be able to eat whatever you want as long as you workout. But that doesn't work for me and it has taken almost 5 years for him to realize this. Finally! No more sabotage and it is working! Slowly, but it is working.

239! I just got here from 240 ville on Saturday. It took forever for me to get (back) out of 240 ville after some weight gain after being laid off/depressed/etc. One more lb and I'm officially back at down 50 lbs from my heaviest. About 11 more and I will say I've officially busted through my plateau! =)

I just came into 230-ville after leaving 240-ville. I don't really plan on unpacking everything yet though because I have a feeling I will be moving into 220-ville in a few weeks. Looks like this will be a nice place in the mean time though. Its been 2 years since I was last in 230-ville!

Finally found my way back after the holidays!! Missed 230ville. Haven't posted in a while because I was back up in 240ville and didn't feel like it was right for me to participate in this team until I was officially back. This morning - 239.6!! So, IM BACK!
"With healthy eating and exercising, as long as you are consistently out-stepping your steps back, you are ahead of the game. If you expect perfection (and many of us do), you are setting yourself up for disappointment and guilt. "
Dear God I am not even sure how I lost track so badly and ended up back in 230-ville but here I am. So lets all do our best to get the heck out of town!!!
Hi! I've been here before, but I plan for this to be the last time! I started a 12 week challenge at the beginning of the year (@ 243) and got into the 230's the first week, but it's been slow going since then. I am logging ALL my food every day and I am increasing my exercise every week. In the challenge we make weekly goals and I find that really helps me to push harder. I hope we all move through this town quickly!!

Hi! I'm Michele. I just weighed in at 239.2 on Wednesday and I'm hoping to get out of the 230's pretty quickly. I've been in the 230's twice before when losing. Last time I lost 120 pounds, then I got pregnant and gained back half of that. My baby just turned 6 months old and I was still close to what I weighed when he was born so I just really started losing again last week.

Hi all! Last year at this time I was at 238. I lost 18 pounds and gained back 15. So today I am at 235. I found the "leaving -villes" in my 220's last year so technically I guess I'm still new to this team. I have joined a gym this year and have actually been going and doing workouts (TRIUMPH!)
I am hoping this year I can gradually take off the weight without becoming obsessed with food (ie: whats for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, etc.....last year it seemed like that's all I could do is research recipes and try to figure out "well if I have this for breakfast and this for lunch I can only have this for dinner but if I have THIS for lunch instead then......and on and on and on.....) I want to live my life not let food obstruct that.....so any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
