I am counting down to my first 10% which will put me at 189 (WOW I can't wait smile.gif ). I have been OP since March but just got serious about it this week. I have promised myself that this time I will stay focused and reach this goal, then the next one.

Sheila--
graemlins/wave.gif It sounds to me like you have a mission and you will meet it... The 1st 10% makes such an incredible difference in seeing your success... It is an excellent motivator to "get to the finish line"!! graemlins/thumbup.gif

I will join you in losing 10%. That would put me at 167. A weight i never thought I would see again. I am a very slow loser so it will probably take me awhile. I just started getting serious with ww again. So for me it is like starting all over again.

Yeah, I'm in, too. I'm 11 pounds to my first 10%, which will put me at 176. It'd be nice to have support in what I consider my first big milestone.

Count me in, I have 6lbs to go but they're hanging tough! That'll put me at 171. My further goal will be to beat that and get in to the 160"s. Good luck everyone. Rhonda graemlins/bcbsalute.gif

I'm in! I'm glad someone started a first 10% countdown!
My first 10% is 23. I'm down 13. Wow, only 10 to go! I haven't even thought of that! I've been getting depressed because it seems so far....that's no so far after all!

Congratulations ges79 & fluffyam graemlins/thumbup.gif on getting closer to your 10% goal. This is so exciting :D . My weigh in is on Friday morning and I hope I am one step closer to 10% too.

05-15-2003, 03:11 PM
Put me down too, I ma having a really hard time doing it this time around. I need something to help me along, and this might do it. I have lost 4 lbs to date, at about 1 lb a week. My 10% is 182lbs, so that leaves me 16lbs to go. One step at a time, I know I can do it!!
Ga_girl
05-16-2003, 08:10 AM
Hello 10% Buddies, graemlins/wave.gif I had my weigh in today and I'm happy to say I'm 2.2 steps closer to my 10% goal. :D They also adjusted my start weight to reflect my original start weight from last year so my new 10% target is 189. (11.8 to go) I can, I can, I can do it!

Another 1.2 pounds lost this week! I now have 8.6 pounds before I reach my first 10% goal.

I'm happy to say that I am 1.8 pounds closer to my 10% goal of 189 :D Ten more pounds to go. I also made onederland graemlins/crazy.gif We are all doing so good. Let's keep it up graemlins/thumbup.gif

05-22-2003, 04:30 PM
Sheila, congrats on reaching onederland, I know that thrills you as it does all of us. I'm 1 pound closer, I have 4 lbs to go (I think), I'm really tired right now, so I'll double check it! Schools almost out, no more getting up at 4:45 yipee!!! odear.gif

05-23-2003, 01:39 AM
I'm in but I have more to lose for my first 10% 23 pounds all together. I'm down 5.5 in the first 2 weeks, so 17.5 to go! How do you attach all of the statistics to your name? Good luck everyone, happy eating!
bluebird
05-23-2003, 03:44 AM
I am in on the goal, my goal is 24 lbs, but I am reducing it to 10# at a time, because 23 overwhelms me, and 10 is more easy for me to see down the road, I've already lost 4.5 so I have 5.5
to go to my first goal. If we work the program, the program works for us. bluebird. tongue.gif

Congrats, Ga_girl! You should be very proud of yourself for working so hard and doing so well.

This web site is so motivating for me. Thanks to everyone who participates. I read a post in the training manual yesterday that has stuck with me all day. A woman on that board stated that she keeps track of days op rather than pounds. I am going to try that. I am in the process of listing possible rewards ie massage, make up, clothes, a movie, etc. I think I will mark the days op on my calendar by the fridge. double incentive! If I stay focused on the program and my commitment to it rather than the scale, maybe I'll be less of a yo yo. Also, I feel better - more energy, proud when I am op. Thanks again to everyone!

I'm also trying to hit that 1st 10% - I truly agree that breaking things down into very very small steps is the only way to go.
Here's my goal:
Cur: 153/137(10%)/128WW/123PG
10%: 137 (by Sept 1)
10%: 123 (by Thanksgiving)

Hello Everyone. graemlins/wave.gif I'm new here and to weight watchers. I'm going to join you in this 10% goal. I just started WW on Monday. My SW was 230. So that makes my 10% 23lbs. I can't wait! I'm so glad i found this site. I've been browsing through different posts and everyone seems so nice and supportive! I look forward to getting to know you better. ~Cherry

Oh My Word! I went UP this week instead of down! 4 pounds! I was really bummed, but I've been paying closer attention...........more protein, more water, etc. and I'm headed back down! (Yes I DID step on the metal monster!)
My 10% is only a couple of pounds away and it just dangles in front of me...........teasing me by being so close!
CherryF
07-15-2003, 09:06 AM
Well....I weighed in Monday morning and I'm happy to say I am 9 pounds closer to my 1st 10%. yay! It was my fist week so I know alot of it was water weight but thats ok. I'm going to do my best to stay OP and get the best results possible each week. I want this weight off YESTERDAY. Right now I'm trying to get my mind set on starting an exercise routine. I lost 56 pounds years ago on another plan but I excersized, too so I know it helps. It's just getting myself motivated. Hope everyone else is having a good week too! WE CAN DO IT! smile.gif
CherryF
07-21-2003, 07:56 AM
:confused: Did I scare everyone away? No-one has posted here since I made my first post to this topic.
So anyway...I'm 2 pounds closer to my first 10%. 12 pounds to go. I'm getting excited. :D Actually the scale made me happy today just to see myself under 220 for the first time in years. How is everyone else doing? Hopefully good! graemlins/thumbup.gif

Hi
Ok--time for me to join you all. I rejoined in May with a starting weight of 207.8, so my 10% is 20#s. Currently, I am at 206.8 (after sporadic attendance which I now plan to make weekly attendance). So I'm 1# closer to my 1st 10% which will put me at 187.8 (does that sound heavenly!!)
