GOod luck! I'm sure you'll suceed!
My goal is also around 130 lbs. I'm at 148... I've got a ways to go.
Congrats keep up the good work :D
I was over 180p in March & I'm now about 150p (guessing as I don't have a scale, but I'm much thinner then my friend & shes 160p). When people start to notice, you'll feel AWESOME inside!! I find that pop makes the tummy stick WAY out.. when I stop drinking pop for 2 weeks, I swear my tummy deflates & when I start up again, it inflates again.. I do need to go on a pop diet again, as I stopped loosing weight (I'm at a stand still, not bad, but not what I want either)..
Keep working hard & You'll be in your swim suit soon enough :)
You are really a strong person Jackie.
sorry, I am a skinny person, but, not in the Bikini crowd any more.
My sister (my best friend) is the opposite. She is over weight, eats junk food, chocolate and cola. I wish her husband would help her out and buy fresh fruit and vegetables instead of catering to her with fast food.
I applaud your determination because knee surgery is worse than hip surgery., so much harder to recover from. You are well on your way to reaching the goal you want to achieve. I wish I had more of your inner drive.
Bravo Jackie!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you acomplish your goals eating home made food is also ALOT more healthy thats what I need to do stop going out to Burger king or wendeys :o I just love there salades lol.
I feel exactly the same, I need to lose weight because its the biggest I've ever been and I really dont like it, I used to go to the gym but with someone and now no one wants to go I feel like I haven't got the confidence to go to the gym on my own, I'm quite a shy person and wouldnt do anything without someone with me I guess I find comfort in it..
I am tryig to lose weight to I had Zoey in Dec and got up to 170 or more when preggo... I was stuck at 135 for awile which was my pre-preggo weight and I weighed myself yesterday and was 130!! yahooo I'm so proud of myself my goal is 120lbs...
Way to go Jackie!! Keep up the good work! What kind of knee surgery did you have?
I tore my meniscus in the gym last May, and my knee was locked for 2 weeks. After the operation, I could never fully extend my leg, and had a really small range of movement.
In all honesty, I think they messed up the first operation. It hurt constantly, my kneecap would slide to the right/make horrible clicking noises, and I had a BAD limp.
Then in August, I was swimming and my knee clicked and locked again. The next operation was to repair the meniscus and the cruciante ligament. After the second operation I felt a million times better, and my limp is gone! :D
Oh, and for anyone that has joint pain, I really recomend glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate supplements!
That's sounds like it has to be very very painful. I had knee surgery in January and I'm thinking now that I've re-injured it. I hope you get better and pain free soon :)
I'm also attempting to get into shape and having pretty good success at it so far. I can't seem to tear myself away from Cherry Coke, though. But, haven't been eating chocolate a lot like I used to. After surgery last year, I got really out of shape. Also, if you get the Oprah magazine, check out June's article with Eve Ensler. It's about accepting our bodies and not letting society dictate how we feel about ourselves. Good luck, everyone!
