Kgirl - good to see you. I hope that your midterms went well. I'm sorry that your knees have been a bit sore and hope that your new schedule is better for you.
I suspect it is a very lucky former big girl that doesnt have problems with her boobs. When I was in my late teens / early twenties I wore a 36B bra. Now I am in a 36J.
I get my bras from Bravissimo and they do bathing costumes too - so I suspect that my bathing costume this summer will have to come from there. I am hoping that we are going to get away to Greece for a couple of weeks. It isnt too many shops that cater for the girls with big boobs in England so I will be paying extra too.

I hate that change of scale making you go up. When i changed mine i went up by 2lb also, (on the doctors im 9ibs lighter than mine lol - keeps her off my back)
I think im the only one that loses more weight than normal at TOTM. In the last four weeks ive had constant TOTM except for 3 days out of all those weeks. When they go away i will probably put on two stone.
Demented - I think that you should see the doctor about that constant TOM thing. It sounds like something is not quite right. Also - that is quite a loss of blood and you may need iron tablets or something.
There are more important things than your weight involved in this (much as you will enjoy the bonus of additional weight loss). Speak to your doctor - you dont want to risk your fertility or general health.
Dont worry Omega i have. I go to the doctor every week. Tis all under control, stopped again now so hopefully ill get three weeks, sometimes i get three months without them then lol. Family curse i inherited.
Demented - I am pleased that you are looking after yourself there.
Congratulations on the new low weight. You will be celebrating like no tomorrow when you get that healthy BMI. Get ready to start the party any day now! At the rate you have been going you will be there tomorrow.
I should have started losing weight again after TOM but it seems to be sticking for a few extra days. I hate it when that happens as I only get two weeks out of the month where I lose weight before it all seizes up retaining water ready for the next TOM.
At this rate I will still be here for another month or so! If things had only got moving quicker I might have had a chance.
I am certainly pleased that you are so near to your ultimate goal.
I know what you mean Omega with the TOM, this month I didn't gain really anything before it, so I thought oh wonderful so I will lose at least 2 lbs when it is over, but unfortunately, I think the days where I skip a number and lose 2 lbs in one shot are behind me lol. At this rate it will be next month before I hit the 140's. I'm not sure I will hit my goal by June at this rate. I figure even if I can't wear a bikini this summer I can wear a one piece that hides my tummy but is still totally hot. I have a running joke with some friends that when I lose all the weight I am going to dress slutty all the time just cause I can lol. Although I don't think I'll have the guts for that.
Demented - you will probably be out of here tomorrow. I am sure that the rest of us are as jealous as jealous can be.
Kgirl - I think that my days of losing much in a week are behind me too. I have given up trying to work out how many weeks / months it is likely to be until I hit goal. I will definitely be in a one-piece suit this summer - but I will look a damn site better in it than I did the summer before last.
I think that it is a great idea to dress slutty when you get to goal if you want to. I am going to be the oddest version of mutton dressed as lamb ever! I am 48 years old and I have been very big since I had a sudden big gain in weight in my mid twenties. I still have a few clothes from my youth that I couldnt bare to part with for sentimental reasons. I am going to be the person wearing clothes suitable for a teenager in the 1970s. I probably wont have the guts to go out in public wearing them - but I shall certainly be playing dressing up at home when I get to goal.
