    Under 100 to go!

    Hi all,

    Posting to say Woo Hoo! I now have under 100lbs to go to reach goal. I saw 259.5 on the scale this morning (with TOM passing I seem to be wooshing like nuts - lost 6lbs this week). This is a huge psychological break for me - to be in the 250's instead of the 270's makes me feel so motivated! And I know this isn't all about the scale, but I need to have a moment of scale euphoria. And I'm down inches too - 2 on my waist in only the past week!

    Funny, but I'm also worried I'm losing too fast. But mostly, I'm doing a happy dance :icondance

    Edited to add: In my excitment of wanting to be under 260 I wrote down 259.5 (where I wanted to be) but it was actually 258.5!! So, 7 pounds in the past week. That's 1 lb more than I lost in the first two weeks!

                  Yeah for you! I'm in a similar weight loss pattern to yours. Yesterday I weighed at 252.5 (and was thrilled) today was 253.5, I know that my weight does a little rollercoaster before going down again, so I'm waiting (and sweating it out :icondance )

                  Keep up the good work!!!! :joy
