What happened to our weight loss weekly check-in?

I don't think that we did it this week or last week, and I missed checking in for a few weeks before that because my scale was packed from the move. I am excited to say that I am down to 135lbs, only 5 from my goal. Considering I was 195 lbs at delivery, I am very proud to be down 60lbs in 5 months. Okay ... So it was mostly water weight, but it still feels good. How is everyone else doing? Unfortunately, now that I am almost completely done BF (not by choice), my boobs have shrunk smaller than pre-pregnancy. At least they aren't saggy like I expected. Weight about normal, but body will never be the same.

    I can't remember who was doing the check in! I'm still plugging along. I'm at my pre-pg weight (137) but want to lose another 3-5. My waist was so much tighter before, even at the same weight. I look in the mirror and think it looks pretty good, but then I saw some pics from a vacation not long before I got pregnant, and was like, uh....these are not the same abs. LOL 

    I am SUPER impressed that you're down 60 lbs!! Way to go! That is such an accomplishment.

    ETA: I'm so afraid to wean. My boobs are already so saggy. I can't even imagine what they're going to look like after. (I EBF.)

    . Sounds like you are doing great. My middle does not look the same either, and I am guessing it never will. Then again, even at my lowest (114), I never had tight abs. As far as weaning and boobs, I hate that I have almost completely weaned, but I guess I know what they will look like now. The don't look too bad, but they feel like empty bean bags. It is weird.

    I was just wondering the same for the weight check in! But I don't have a scale right now so no idea where I'm at.

    I breastfed for 6 weeks and my boobs are so not the same. They used to have this firmness ...and although they don't sag (can I sag at 23 yrs old lol?) They are.. squishy .. I even sometimes will "poke" at the top of my boobs because they feel so weird! --I just had to touch them again! lol

    I don't know..I think I need to go do that work out on the machine where you bring in your arms..or push ups..maybe that will help?

    And as for the abs..or non-existence of them..well they were never there to begin with..there was this "firmness" to the skin that is probably long gone. I think even with working out our (well MY skin) has a different texture, not soft or rough, if that makes sense.

    I think we need to do a picture post once we hit the one year mark though, hopefully my stretch marks are gone and I can at least be brave to post a pic =} we'll see!

    I am so embarrassed about my weight. I initially lost 25 of 45 lbs but have gained 10 back... I blame my increased appetite caused by BFing. In reality, I should blame drinking soda and eating everything. I'm ready to make a change.

    What is everyone doing?

    I want to participate in the weight check in. Did you all find out who was tracking?
