  1. Updated goal to 145--the highest "normal" for my height. I am 10 pounds away from that, and I am finding my body settling into 155,. I'd like to get off this plateau and see the other side, understanding my maintenance weight may fluctuate between 145-150. Here's hoping this week brings another pound loss! :)

      Good luck Angie! We will get there. I just would like to see a "normal" BMI--under 25!

      I updated my goal wt a couple months ago, thinking it would motivate me more, seeing as I would be 10 lbs closer. It went from 130 to 140. At the time, I was 155. Now, 2 mths later, I've lost a whopping 2 lbs. I've been bouncing between 150 and 155 forever. I'm 2 lbs from a normal bmi (24.90) and while I'm pretty comfy in my size 8 jeans (down from a 22), I really feel the need to make my goal eventually. My primary care thinks I should try to maintain for a while and then tackle the last few lbs. I've just never in my life NOT wanted to lose weight so I don't know what it feels like to want to stay the same.

       

      Good luck to u!

      Good luck Marfar! My dietitian and PCP are tickled pink with me where I am, but I know what you mean. I lost 1 pound over the course of the last 3 weeks, and it's a little taxing. I'm not quite a size 8 yet, which is where I'd like to be. (Between a 6 & 8, rather than a 10-12) I guess I'll keep up the fight!
