[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m going to check in again, though I think I’m talking to myself at this point! Mid 40s 5’6” woman. Back on track this week and I’m down to 139 lbs, for a total of 40 lost. Feels harder and harder to get these pounds off the more I lose. But I feel great, I love the new clothes I’ve gotten, I can run! Me! Run! A lot. I no longer gasp for breath during a fitness class, my chronic asthma is easier to deal with, my BMI is into the normal range. I’m going to keep trying to get down to 135, but I’m not going to beat myself up if I can’t get there. [/quote]

Congrats, you!!!  That's so fantastic, and not just reaching your number goal but all the extras you're getting with it!  Great job sticking with it even through the literal ups and downs, ha.  I'm PP above who had 16 pounds left to lose to get to 155, and I'm down to 14 pounds left there, and maybe I will get there in January (but then again there's Thanksgiving and Christmas so...maybe a little later).  But my goal is getting closer!  I'm also wondering whether I should aim a little lower, but I also don't want to fall into the trap of ultimately getting disgusted with resetting the bar trying to go lower and lower.  That said, I know I won't be able to just put the diet away and go back to eating the way I ate two years ago, which was unhealthy.

Congratulations again for getting to that 40 lbs goal and for taking fitness classes and running and all of that!  Go you, you rock![/quote]
