The last 10 pounds

[tikistitch]

So, it's been about 5 months.

tiki is down about 40 lbs or so on the diet. Which is good, we guess. It's a lot. Most of our clothes fit ok now. We don't wheeze when we walk upstairs. We don't wheeze when we run upstairs.

But this wasn't our goal weight. Our goal was to lose another 10 lbs. Which, ya know, hasn't really come off.

We're just a little bored right now. Hamburgers are starting to look really good. And, there's always chocolate.

Maybe we need some motivation?

Enter Yahoo Japan....

I'm in the same boat. I've lost 30, my goal was 40, I've been at the same weight for about a month now and I have found myself slowly giving into temptations again:(

If they had that in Ponies, I might be motivated right along with you:)

I've lost 30

Woo-hoo!!

I dunno, that last 10? I wonder if I should tell my body I actually want to lose another 20 and totally fool it!

Seriously, for me to appear in public in a bikini, I'd have to take off another 20 lbs, PLUS at least 10 years, hahahaha...

Cool! Just make sure you go slowly, ok? Not more than 1-2 lbs a week.

Maybe I'm not qualified to pass this along, inasmuch as I've never particularly tried to lose any weight (although I'm sure I should), but I've always heard that "the last 10 pounds is the hardest." And I think you'd look smashing in that bikini! Smashing, baby! (Aw, now I'm kind of regretting taking my copy of AUSTIN POWERS and selling it into slavery at Half-Price Books earlier today...)

One of the horrifying things about food politics is that even people who really don't need to lose weight (like you) get it in the back of their minds that maybe they should be on a diet, meanwhile, I have to jump to keep from getting run down by 400 lb guys on their Rascal scooters at WalMart.
