Countdown to 130!
 
Ok, we have worked so hard so far and already get incredible results...What seems to be imposible some time ago it is almost there and 130 is whisppering our names....
BUT some days it seems to be sooooo far away! The weight loss has slowed down and sometimes it takes the up and down pattern that demands ALL our patience and all the support that we can have from each other.
Would you like to join on this countdown to this magic number? It doesnt have to be your goal weight, just to know youŽll be there soon!...well, ;) sooner or later!

I'm shooting to get back to 134. I was previouly there for afew years, went carb crazy and now poof! 160's

Hey Michelle..you did it once! Those pounds will drop soon but what you have learned about yourself will stay with you.
In many ways you go way behind of us. You know the way to get there, you know you can mantain there and you are learning the way to get up and keep going...
I have been overweight since a child. I reached 130 for a couple of times using diet pills to kill the hunger of low fat diets. Of course, as soon I quit the pills my weight went up. It was really frustrating because I know the real me was not the one who reached the goal. I didn't know the way but YOU do!
So, cm'on girl, our oficial countdown has began!...struggles included! ;)

Thanks for such a motivational post! Darn pms , I almost got teary eyed!

Ok, Dora were on our way! Thanks!

140 this morning! I knew that my 2 pounds up MUST be water...
I saw a thinner me at the mirror this morning, especially at the upper body. So cool!
Keep up the good work! :thup:

Hi Dora and Michelle,

I'd like to join your challenge if that's okay. My ultimate goal is 127, but that's really close to 130! Plus if i make it in the 3's I'll be over the moon! I'm still
really far from my goal, but I plan on getting there this time!

Dora, way to go! You are only 10 lbs away!
I weigh on mondays and was 162 this morning. Happily after my cheating last week at lest it didn't go up.Yesterday was a great day LCing. I went clothes shopping, got a good look in the mirror and really realized how far I've let myself go in the last year. Made me darn mad!
Millie, Hi there! Thanks for joining us! You've done great with the 20lbs! You'll get there 4sure!
I think posting and the challenges sure help!

Hi future 130ps ladies!

You see, Michelle, we are 3 now! A very warm welcome Nilli!

When I began low-carb it really seems impossible to me to get to 130 (Lot of years of yo-yo dieting, my thyroid was removed, my binging was completely out of control AND i was a coached potato ...So, I just write 130 as I would write 140 or any other number.
And yes Michelle, I'm just 10 pounds from there! Thanks for make me remeber it!
Now, I know I'll get there. It will takes me time and many of my energies but I'll be there. (You'll see, I'm slow as a turtle :p )

Every little step counts.

Went the gym this morning. Cardio for 40 minutes and a very good upper body workout. :thup:

Happy low-carb week to both of you!

I'm still plugging away. Sortof disgusted though.. I have done perfectly since sunday. I am up 2 since monday. I hate pms!!!!!!
How are you both doing?

Isiar Wed, Jan-07-04 20:15

A very timid but always welcome new low this morning (0.5pds). But since I was in a urge to see something going down, I take it and updated my stats.:p

Well done Michelle! :thup:...All we need is patience and to stick to the plan so the whoosh may come after TOM. BTW TOM is here also.

Worked out today but I was kind of weak...probably due to TOM. Hope it will be better tomorrow so I can work out the lower body.

We can do this together!

Hi there!
Summer is here so I'm just about leaving to the beach. I'll be back next sunday.
I'm doing well. I prepared a lot of low carb week for the coming days so there's no way I can fall off the wagon...It would be a scale vacation too...I really need that. ;)

Have fun!
:wave:

rodmick Thu, Jan-08-04 15:55

Dora, Have a blast! Summer! It's 5 below zero here. Hopefully I have a loss to report when your back!

Have fun in the sun!
