Thanks for the advice I think I will keep track but give myself a range. I actually didn't do so bad yesterday! And I seem to have the hunger under better control today.
 
I love spark for keeping track of calories. It keeps me honest.

Lost 2 pds, STILL haven't taken my before pic.
 
Okay, i have been cheating so bad, but somehow the scale said 275 on friday, but now it says like between that and 280, it has me totally bummed so today i am gonna try to buckle down again, i have got to get down to at least 265 before Christmas!! Sheesh~!! I am so upset with myself!! More like frustrated! It has just been so cold down here, ugh, well, ttyl, bye~
 
Thanks dari, i think the reason i got upset is some things that were said on another thread and i took it personally when it may not have even been directed to me....and it really got me down....but im pretty sure it was meant towards me....but anyways, i hope everyone is doing great!!! Good Luck~
 
hey emily gal....dun get so stressed up. i just got a nasy pte msg this week but it's not gonna make me give up! so hang on there and we're all here together to support one another ya!:)
 
People are nasty on here? Thats really not cool. Keep your chin up Emily you are doing fantastic, this is a long hard road but you really can do it. You know I haven't ever said this any where on here but I started losing weight a couple years ago at that time I was, I know 230 (about a size 22-24) but I stopped weighing myself so who really knows. Its been a tough but very rewarding road to get to this point. And if I can do it ANYONE can do it.

LOL Dari Oh I got one for when I started the halloween challenge but i'm not willing to look at it just yet. Its to depressing (I back slid from what I said to Emily up there to where I'm at now). I lose a little tiny bit more weight and i'll be able to face that picture. I guess I can use that one as my before! I honestly forgot about the evil vile thing until your comment, so thanks! Oh wait that sounds sarcastic, I actually really mean thanks! LOL Yeesh the internet, so hard sometimes when you can't see someone's face, but i'm smiling for REAL!:)
 
I'm definately in on Christmas challenge too! I have no idea how much I can lose between now and then, but I am doing really good so far. I need to lose no more than 35 pounds total. My initial goal was to lose that by Valentine's Day, but I think I can do at least 20 by Christmas.
 
Is it just me or does weighing 105 pounds just sound too skinny? I guess in my minds eye I always thought that anyone under 120 was just skin and bones.... I don't know.
 
it depends on how tall they are, but i have a friend who is 4'11 and weighs 98 but shes awfully short and even she looks way skinny!!!

Depends on the height. If you look at any chart on the web, 105 is perfectly fine for my height at not quite 5'1". ;)
 
Hello Katie and congrats on that ticker getting past that 179.5!!
My opion that sounds tiny/sinnnnny!! How tar are ya though? If
you are 5"0" and below might not look too bad on ya? I am 5"4
and even when I do lose the flab I still think I will be bulky cuz
my frame is big so anything below 150 might make me look sick.
My aunt said she got to 180 and looked healthy and was comfortable
when she dipped into the 160's she said her face started to look sunken
in and she just wasn't carrying as well as when she was at 180?

I think you look gr8 now but do what makes you feel happy but of course
a "SAFE" happy! Tammy:)
 
Depends on bone size too...I'm not quite 5'2", but have larger bones, so my medium is a few pounds higher than someone with small bones.:)
 
How do you know what you body frame size is? I just thought, short person=small frame. But dari I'm 5'2" as well...how did you determine you were a medium frame?
 
i have always heard that if u can fit ur fingers entirely around (overlapping) ur wrist u are small framed, if ur fingers just touch u are medium, and if u cant touch, ur large framed, but thats just what i have heard, hope it helps :)
 
I may be a dork, but the best way I've understood frame size is from Lord of the Rings. Hobbits: Short and small frame. Dwarves: Short and large frame.
 
Hey all, just though I'd let you know I lost 3.5pounds last week!!!!!!! On my way to looking sexy under that christmas tree!!!!! Hope you guys are all doing well too, now off to update my signiture!!!
