[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've lost over 75 pounds in the last year or so and have another 25 to go.  Hoping to get there by January or February.

I care about my weight on a scale, how my clothes fit, and how I feel.  I'm at 178 right now (I'm 5 ft 7), so on this last year I've gone on a journey from morbidly obese to just obese to just overweight now, and I'm trying to get down into that "normal" range still.  Trying to lose about a pound a week, slow but steady.

Good luck, everyone![/quote]

I've had a great week -- down to 175.8 today from 178 just over a week ago.  I came back from vacation a week ago and I think the vacation weight has dropped off because a lot it was just retained water from salty foods.  Two pounds is lot of weight for me in one week and even with this I haven't lost 5 pounds from my weight at the beginning of the month, only 4 (because I gained over vacation).  But it wasn't hard to get back on track after vacation, just decide to do it.  I also just crossed my 80 pounds of weight loss mark -- I started last summer at 256.

What do folks do when they hit plateaus?  Usually I just wait it out and stay strong.  I also noticed that sometimes a plateau will break right after my cheat day -- I'll go up a little and then down quite a bit more.  Maybe the body needs to be tricked sometimes, heh.  Good luck, everyone![/quote]

I agree, I don't have a cheat day, per say, but sometimes I just eat more. And sometimes the day after that I have a drop! But I have to have been being good for a while. I'm stuck at my current weight (+/- 2 pounds) for about 2 weeks, thought, so grrrr. [/quote]
