Hi there. I've tried in the past to lose weight, and it works for awhile, but I always seem to find myself back in the 200 range and then give up again. This time I'm going to try it with this forum to keep me motivated. I weight 209 right now. I really want to get out of this range, so I'll try hard.

It can be done... I've tried and failed many times... Education is the key.

1lb down this week. I thought I'd be up, but I wasn't so that's good. Seems the 100's are so far away. Have to concentrate on getting to the 100lbs lost mark first and work from there.

Great job! You're one pound closer to that mark. It does seem like forever, but look at how far you've come. We can do this!

Thanks pastelroses. Just gotta keep thinking one step at a time. There's gotta be a reason that there's so many aphorisms like, just put one foot in front of the other, the longest journey starts with a first step etc.
Ok. I weighed in at 198.6, and I'm not weighing myself again until Tuesday (we'll see how that goes...)
So far so good!
I hope to stay under 200 and keep going down until I reach my goal. I never want to come back.You understand.
<3
Of course, Lily! I feel the same way, although I look lovingly back at others making the journey right behind me. I'm closer then the first time I introed in here. I think I was 217 or 215 when I first checked in here in early sept. I'm not at 203 as of today and I'm just now realizing I should in the 100's before Halloween!
I simply am overwhelmed at the thought since it's been so long. I think I'll probably cry the day I cross over as silly as that sounds. Thanks for letting me blab guys. I'm back into my classwork at school so I probably won't get a chance to check in again before I go below the 200 mark. Hello to all the noobs in this club! You can do it!

255 lb.....
Back when I was in High School I got up to weighing over 280 pounds... I was sick of it. Finaly I was able to make changes in my lifestyle.... and over time I got down to around 195......
Now I find myself all the way back up to 250 and it's very discouraging to say the least. I promised myself that I'd never allow myself to gain back the weight... talk about broken promises!! lol
Just thought I'd say hello to everyone.
The other thing is that I realize just how hard I had to work at it at first..... until different things just naturaly fell into being a part of my everyday life.... I so desperately want to be there again. I think that coming here will turn into a decent outlet..... for me getting back on track with things.

Well, fwiw, count me in the 'broken promise club' too. I said the same thing to myself when I got myself in probably the best shape of my life in the mid 90's. I still carry some weight since then, but I actually think I'm approaching my fitness level from then already and that has me really excited to know that!
Anyway, this to say that you've already beaten yourself up enough over it. Just hop back in and the months will fly by and you'll be back there, man!
Been doing it for 9 months now and have ditched about 75 lbs. I'm just used to living life like this now(habit like you said) and the way I eat is in a manner I can maintain this time. I also realize activity must be a constant. No matter what it is, the body has to stay moving.
I wish you well!
Well, looks like I'll be parking here for at least 8 more months....
I'm pregnant!
Congrats!!! and better you then me(pregnant)!
I'm down to 202 so I'm going to work my butt off this week now that TOM is over and hopefully I'll get my first reading in the 100 range in years! Exciting times!

Yes, congratulations. As angel above me said, better you than me. It would just be odd . . .

I was reading through a few of the posts on this thread and you all seem very supportive.. SO I thought I'd make a post and say hi and introduce myself.. Well my name is Amanda, I'm 21 years old and currently at my highest weight, which is 240lbs. I'm miserable and depressed... I have to do something about it now! I'm currently on weight watchers, I just started Monday and so far so good! My goal weight is 140 or 150 whatever puts me in a size 8... I still want curves I don't want to be a stick.. Anyways I thought I'd make a post but I have to be getting to bed.. Hope you talk to you all soon!
Hello to all the newbies in this thread. Try to keep in mind some of us on the 'nearly out' end were where you are sitting now. Things do change just hang in there. "I will" I'm at the same place goal wise as you! Size 8 is about perfect and I'm perfectly happy being 150 or 145. I've been 120 as an adult woman and it is just not a good weight for me.

Hi all,
Well even though my inital goal is 210lbs I do want to get into the 100's at some point, but for now I'd love to join this 'club' but without being rude, I am already looking forward to leaving it (like everyone else I'd imagine )
