thanks for replying :) I'm certain you will reach your goal- whatever that number ends up being! I guess its good to have a general goal and as you get close- adjust based upon how you are looking / feeling? That seems a bit hard to do since when I look in the mirror- I still see 340 lbs. The brain will catch up sooner or later.
Good luck!

hey all .. glad to see this thread.. ive been debating this issue myself.. ive lost 220 lbs so far.. weighing in at 190. really never saw myself this small before.. i mean i weighed over 200lbs at age 9 .. so this is the smallest ive ever been .. my doc is really talking about me getting 160 or less.. frankly.. im content if i could have my skin removal surgery.. thats the only thing that makes me unhappy.. but part of me is still fighting to get to 160 before i have the surgery.. im 5ft7 and very muscular.. i guess part of me figures.. ive lost 220 already .. why not another 30.... how do u know what size is right for u.. if youve never been there?

Every pound counts right? I am at the point now, where if I don't exercise, no matter how little I eat, I do not lose.
So I am at the gym and/or walking with my buddy every single day this week. I can do this.
HOW IS EVERYONE ELSE DOING?

I have been saying from time to time that deep inside, I don't believe I will ever get to my goal of 175. This morning, I got a little butterfly in my stomach that believed that I would. And soon.
As I count down, I am becoming a believer. This just thrills me to no end. Life with the band is beautiful.:faint:

Just had to say something.
I FEEL SO FRIGGEN AWESOME!
I love getting dressed in bright colours, form fitting clothes and I love feeling beautiful. Yesterday I got some new make-up, bought a bright PINK sweatshirt and put on my skinny jeans, now too big. I am on my way out the door and I feel so alive.
Hope you are feeling awesome too!
The banded life is great!

My new pink sweatshirt and these were my goal jeans. I still have a teense of a muffin top, but I feel really great in this outfit. Haven't worn pink since I was 10.
But wanted to share. I am 11 pounds from goal.

Tonks, it's when some, uhh... flesh... spills over the edges of your pants, much like a muffin does over the edge of the paper cup! hehe
