yep, I'm now officially in the 150s group already - it's only tuesday.
I am in at 158 today, and I know it's all fat because I've been working at a very high calorie deficit over the last few days, and I've done over 7000 calorie just through diet and exercise (I didn't count exercise like cleaning the bathroom or mopping floors) and I've kept my calorie intake up over 1400 so my metabolism hasn't slowed down.
I'd like to be 156 by the end of the week before I go back to uni.
lol poor thing! You are the only one You are doing great! What have you been doing to lose 5 lbs in a week? I joined a 150's club but that was pre-summer.. maybe that is where everyone is Congrats on your success! I have found it very hard to go down. My weight has been the same for so long! (4 months) I have faith I will get on the ball! Hope you have a great week!
hi mishi, glad someone else has joined me! For the week that I lost 4kg I worked REALLY hard. I ate over 1400cal/day but exercised lots, and I did swimming - which burns off LOTs of calories. I couldn't have done it for more than a week - my body was exhausted by the sunday. I've gone back to 1hr/day exercise and I think i'll lose another kg this week.
It must be so discouraging being stuck on a plateau for so long. I need to see results to be motivated. Are you very close to your goal weight?
I fitted into one of my dresses today that I couldn't fit into even before I got pregnant. I'm very happy about that.
Well this forum seems to be joined by people who can't wait to leave it, but that's understandable. I'm about 160Lbs - I'm going to officially weigh myself tomorrow (October 1st) and by the end of the month I'd like to be 150Lbs... so I'll be here for awhile.
I was 150Lbs at the beginning of this year but just let myself go throughout the summer - too much partying. I'd really like to get back into my "skinny" clothes. I'm a total yo-yo-er and I really need to stop that. So hopefully this wont be a diet but a change in the way I eat.
Anyways a quick bit about me, I'm 19, 5'9, and roughly 160Lbs. I am in university so a big problem for me is finding time to exercise. This Tuesday I have 2 midterms and a lab exam (yikes!). Anyways I fall off the bandwagon quite easily, one cheat day turns into a couple days and then a couple weeks. I'm notoriously telling myself I can just start tomorrow. I don't want to do that anymore, I'm much more confident and happy when I'm thinner.
I lose weight just by cutting back calories and exercising... nothing fancy.
Good luck everyone!!!
Hi freshman, glad to hear your weight loss is going well.
I'm sure you can find time to exercise, I study medicine, so I'm at uni from 8am-4.30pm, I have a 1 year old daughter, I have to keep house and study, but I still manage to do at least 1hr exercise a day. If you want it, you'll do it! I must admit, it is difficult around exam time - usually I just let it all slip and pick it up after exams. Good luck!
I am short(5'3") so being in the 150's is not healthy for me. I was teetering the border between the 150s and 160s at the beginning of my journey and I vowed to never let that scale have a 6 in the second digit. Now I want to banish the 5 from ever being there!!
hi, i am also 5"3 and i weigh 153. i was down to 144 after having my baby, but my scale broke, i acted ignorant, and regained. the last 2 weeks i have been stuck at this weight and i'm getting really discouraged! my goal weight is 130, but i wanted to lose 8 pounds a month so that i could be cute in spring, and wear cute clothes. i feel like all the work i've been doing has gotten me nowhere. i could really use a buddy if any of you are interested.
You are doing great! What have you been doing to lose 5 lbs in a week? I joined a 150's club but that was pre-summer.. maybe that is where everyone is
