Thank you.
In analyzing BMI, I am officially in the 'overweight' category. Not by too much but still in there.
Healthier eating and more exercise is the main goal. |

Tue 8/8/2006 4:28p | Nice to know that my beer belly (or should that be an "ice cream belly"?) isn't as noticeable as it used to be. I weigh in around 215, which is down from my high of 250 a few years back, but still higher than the 195-200 that I should be carrying. |

Tue 8/8/2006 4:29p | I'm with you there.
I will probably officially join this thread after my first post-Bonneville Disney trip in about 2 weeks. Starting a food and excersise plan at Speed Week is not practical with only one food vendor for miles around. |

Tue 8/8/2006 4:52p | I have to confess, I've put on 8 pounds of the 22 I had lost during the last 6 weeks. No excuse except I was stressing out about my summer school secretary assignment. It was the first time I was in charge of the office staff and I wanted to do a good job of it. The assignment was a success if I don't look at the scale, LOL!
I know what to do, I just need to get to it!
Good luck, everyone! |

Tue 8/8/2006 4:53p | And I agree with Deb, you three don't look like you need to lose any weight! |

Tue 8/8/2006 7:21p | Well I haven't been my very best, but I have managed to lose. I was hoping to lose 5 more pounds before my DL trip on Friday, but it just won't come off! Arg, I've been to the gym nearly every day even in the heat. Oh well, I'm not going to stress over it, but I am planning on enjoying myself while on holidays, and then it's back to the grindstone. |

Tue 8/8/2006 9:44p | I have been waiting for this to come up now that I have met people on this thread f2f. I have stated that I do not have a lot to lose but it is still very hard as I am a obsessed with food. There was even a post sometime back by someone who needed to gain weight. My opion is it is all the same if one is a food addict.
The truth is I have gone up 2 sizes in 3 years. I have lost 10 lbs and have stayed there for awhile. Truth is I still cannot fit into my pre-weight-gain clothes and I want to.
I need to lose 10 more lbs and I have been fighting that same 10 lbs since I first started gaining and could not stop the out of control eating. Every time I would lose 2 or 3 lbs I would gain back 5. It is a vicious and dangerous cycle.
So, I am off to Seattle with a goal of coming back at the same wieght I am now. I went to the gym today for the first time in weeks. I hope I can stay on track. And even if I do lose the 10 lbs I will check in here because it helps me stay honest about my relationship to food and I will not want to gain it back. |

Tue 8/8/2006 10:08p | My post was only meant as a compliment and observation, RAM1984, nothing more. I understand only too well an obsession with food. |

Tue 8/8/2006 10:13p | I was not upset. I just wanted to tell my story so to speak. My sister could never get over 100 lbs. Now she is tipping the scales at around 160. I am working hard to keep from doing the same. We were both extremely skinny kids and teens.
I am glad people think I look good but my grandson thought I was pregnant a few months ago. |
