Lets see I weighed myself yesterday and weighed in at 309lbs. I guess wedsnesdays are my new days to weigh-in. I am going nuts though waiting till the 21st so that I can take my measurements..............I lost 2inches in my stomach last month and an 1inch in each arm. I just cant take the suspense...........lol

CONGRATULATIONS! Isn't it funny that you start to feel so skinny. I weigh 302 right now and I swear I feel like a goddess compared to where I started (329.)

I'm proud! Good job and keep it up!

Isn't it funny how that works......At 368lbs I wanted no one to see me not even my DH. I always walked with my head to the ground and never looked up when someone was talking to me. I was even that way when I joined the gym. Now lookout I talk to anyone and everyone!!! When I see some guy doing an exercise at the gym and its not one I was aware of I march right up to him and ask what he's doing and what muscles it works.....I even had one guy stop his work out and ask me what I was doing for my stomach to help melt the inches...I said well I am doing the ab machine. He said well walk me thru your workout!! So he gave me a few idea and even pointed out ways that other exercises may benefit me!!!!
I was blown away!!! He even commented on my weightloss and said he'd noticed some changes but didn't want to offend me by offering advice since I was working so hard!!! I said offer away I am in here for my health!!!! Now when I go in he's my workout buddy!!!!!!!!!

Angie,
Some of my best support has come from the people at my gym - I think its easy to think that the fit people at the gym were always that way but a lot of them worked their way into great shape and they know how hard it is and they admire people who work hard.

And I've found that most people love to teach/share information.

I'm so glad you are enjoying your gym time.

you're right .... and alot of people think that all the "young skinny girls" especially at college have like nooooo problems, but oddly enough, being a loner in high school i've become buddies with all the popular kids at college (i guess that makes me one of them?

You seem a little disappointed that your "still at 322lbs".....I to can go for periods of time where I don't loose anything on the scale. I get mighty mad at myself let me tell you!!! As hard as we all work at loosing the weight it either comes off way to slow or not at all in my opionion!! I wonder if you have tried taking your measurements or have noticed any changes at all in how your clothes are begining to fit you. I measure myself once a month and that way even if the scale has not moved or if it has moved just the tinsiest bit I can see larger goals in my measurements.

Thanks by the way for your post!!!!

Good Luck and my the scale go down for you this time!!!
