At one point I lost 52 pounds and got comfortable and before I knew it I regained a lot of the weight. I've lost a total of about 20 pounds now. It's not where I want to be but it's not where I once was. Just moving forward!

19.5 pounds that is another 1.5 pounds since last I checked in 3 weeks. A half a pound a week may not seem like much but I am still going in the right direction.

Hello all, wow it's been a while since I last posted. I got sick and that reeeally threw me off track. But I'm back on it again! I just got a new cardio DVD set and tried it today. I think I'm gonna like it. I lost 25lbs before I got sick in January and was sick most of February- recouped in March and now I'm one of the faithful again. I gained back about 7 lbs through my lazy "recoup" period and I am working on taking that back off.
My DH is now sparking as well, He's watching what he's eating which makes my life a little easier as well.
Keep up the good work everyone!
Reaching my goals through dedication to drinking my H20, workin it with my The Firm video's (love em!), and biking every sunday with my family at least 6 miles!

Haven't lost anything in April. But hitting a plateau is ok...I'm not gaining!!! I know it is just temporary right now and a monthly issue. Hugs, Helen

16.5 pounds. Someone I haven't seen in awhile, asked if I was losing weight. I was ecstatic. I am losing so slowly no one seems to notice but it sure is a motivator when they do.

10 pounds now!! I bought myself a major award - an (envelope) sealing wax stamp with my initials. Now when I write letters by hand it will be that much more personal, sealed by a wax stamp, and it will signify my new identity and new start.

I lost 8 pounds. My work places special demands on me which make it a challenge to keep an exercise routine. Also I backslid over the holidays, but now I'm losing weight again.

I lost another 15 pounds when I was very ill two weeks ago. Total of 74 pounds. Hopefully I don't gain back what I lost the week I was sick, was not able to eat or drink anything that week. Starting to feel a little better though. Helen

I haven't really lost any weight since joining. I've lost and gained a few pounds back and forth, but have struggled with getting into a good routine and making new habits. I blame it on trying to lose the weight quickly. I told myself I was just jumpstarting my weight loss by trying to lose a bunch in a short amount of time, that I wasn't setting myself up for the same failure that so many people do when they try to lose weight quickly. Plus, I've come to the realization that short term goals don't really work very well for me, so I'm focusing on the long term goal now. I can't help but be dissappointed with myself seeing how much weight you all have lost since joining, thinking that could have been me!
You gotta' give some to get some.

I never seem to lose my weight although I am told I look thinner. I will continue to exercise every day and eat well and know that I am doing something good for my body! A few years ago I lost nearly 40 lbs (that was 2 lbs a month!) and gained back 15 lbs. Since then I have stayed the same - even over Christmas!

I had lost 10, but now I'm back to where I started...as always. It's like 160 lbs. is a big rubber wall - I always get here, but as I soon as I do I bounce back.

I have lost only 10 lbs. I track and exercise. I back slid over the holidays but I am back at it. I don't mind so much that it is going slow because this time it is going to stay off. Congratulations to all of you!

I have lost 18 pounds. It has been extremely slow-going. But, as long as the weight is coming off, I am hoping it will stay off. After all, I'm not having any more babies!
Good luck!
