I finally made it! WOW!

Postby doglover » June 15th, 2005, 5:35 am

Well, this is it folks...I finally got there. Hopped on the ol' hunk of metal this morning and there it went...the 140's gone forever! 139.5!!! Wow, these last 10 lbs sure took it's sweet time but I can't blame it on anything but me and some minor cheating, a week hiatus for Jamaica, and stress, and probably slow metabolism!

Anyway, I have decided that I like the look of the 130's so much on the scale that I am going to give myself some breathing room and head toward 135. So I'll be haunting this board a little longer I guess!

Anyone want to take bets on how long 4.5 lbs will take to come off ;)

Congratulations Donna!! :cheerleader: :cheerleader: That is Fantatstic! YOU DID IT!

Now on the bet..............I'll say you will have that weight off in 3 weeks. I was going to say 2 weeks but I know that as you get close to goal it seems to take longer to lose the weight so I am going with 3. OOOOHHHHHH I hope I win. :devious:

130's!!!!!! I haven't seen that weight since college, (and even then I only saw it for a few months! Too much of a social life back then I guess!! ;) )

Congratulations!!!!!! I can't even imagine how excited you must be!!!!

Donna that is soooooo fantastic!!!!! You are an inspiration to me to keep going and lower my goal too! As far as the bet.....well......we all know how stubborn those pesky little numbers are especially when you are already ms skinny........but I'm going on the positive end and say 2 weeks. If I'm wrong no matter you are already a mere shadow of your former physical self. I will make sure I mentally shoot all turtles out of a cannon into space for you! :lol:

WOO HOO!! Great job D! I am proud of you.

If you want to melt the rest of those pounds off more quickly, try walking when you first get up in the morning. I know this works and gets your metabolism rate up for the remainder of the day.

DONNA - Congratulations! I'm having an exciting morning :lol: , first for me and now for you. I say, just keep the good news coming! I'm gonna be floating all day. I saw 130's on my digital scale once (when it needed calibration); can't even imagine what that must be like :shock: I believe that is very close to my birth weight :? . Enjoy your day, I'm sure everytime you think about that moment on the scale this morning, you'll smile :D .

Ah comeon
You can't stop "haunting" the forum when you're down to where you want to be -- the rest of us still need help.

That's right! Even when you reach goal ya gotta come here! I think if I'd have kept logging when I stopped in the Fall I would probably got my act together much sooner! I plan on logging in to keep myself accountable!
