Start: 170 lb, Today: 148 lb, Goal: 125 lb - my original goal was 145 but i'm 148 and now that i'm nearing it i'm not seeing the body i want still. i've lost 22 pounds but it's not enough and i'm not where i want to be. so my other goal is 130 but now i'm thinking perhaps 125 to give myself some room to gain and lose a couple of pounds here and there. i really wish i had gone down some pants sizes but i haven't and i'm going shopping on friday and i think i'll buy some snug clothes and work my butt off trying to lose enough to fit into them. maybe one pair opf pants. but man- i really wish i had lost more inches- right now i don't care about weight- i care about INCHES and it's just not going away! grrrr. i'm working so hard for it not to be showing. other people claim to see a difference but i think they're just being nice- especially my boyfriend. he says he loves my body right now and that i don't need to lose weight but he loves it when i'm stretched out thinnly and i think that's what he wants. plus- i really really want to look great in a two piece next summer. thanks for letting me vent my frustations on this board. it helps clear my mind and think through and stick with what i'm doing. but my main worry is- i've lost over 20 lbs and haven't seen or measured much of a difference- what if the next 20 pounds i lose doesn't show anything either???
