NSV: 109 days and counting...
...til I say "I do" to the love of my life! Went out to my parents' house (they wouldn't let me keep the dress at my house because they knew I would try it on every day lol) and tried on my beautiful white wedding dress I will wear on August 6th. I can REALLY tell a difference in how it fits through my waist and chest and…

NSV: I cant believe it!
I haven't lost any pounds in over two weeks so I have been feeling kinda down. I exercise everyday usually burning between 2000-2500 calories a week. This past week I joined a challenge to burn 3500. I burned almost 4,000 with a day off! This morning I was cleaning up my room and when I opened my closet I saw my…

Lost 1 foot of flab!!
I gave up my scale and measuring tape for Lent, and today was the end of it. So onto the scale I went... down 8.8 pounds! A disappointment at first after 40 days, but after calculating it out, it's a totally healthy weight loss of just under 1.5 lbs/week (1.47 or something like that). So I'm much happier knowing that! Onto…

I walked past the pizza!
They were offering pizza at my work and I thought, do I want to be wearing that on my body tomorrow? I decided, no, it wasn't worth it and came home and had a healthy lunch. I am proud of myself and just had to share it! It's rare that I've walked past free hot food after working hard at work, but I did it!

NSV? Dinner = Mini Binge
my son was sick yesterday. and i was super-hormonal (adjusting to a new birth control). and i got to thinking about my mother, my relationship with her, and a lot of things that i normally just ignore about how she brought me up and how she was never there for me, physically or emotionally, when i needed her. so i laid…

A Nice Surprise
I didn't know what to expect when I stepped on the scale this morning. I expected to see some weight loss, but I just felt that it'd be less than the 2lbs I'd hope for. I had made it up in my mind that I would be more than happy with a 1-1.5lbs loss, even though I'd worked for more. I don't know how I did it to be quiet…

Happy is an understatment. 8 weeks to go until I go away on my holiday. So I have reset my target to edge toward healthy BMI and then start toppiing up my wardrobe with clothes I feel comforable…

half way to goal...... finally put pictures up.....
I'm not very computer savvy but put some pics up. Not sure how to crop my friends out of them. The original is at my heaviest and the other is about 1/2 way to goal. I'm the one in the Jets sweatshirt (size 3X I might add), and the one one the left with the black shirt and vest. Thanks for all of your support.

People Are REally Noticing!
I have lost 15 lbs since November 2010 and I guess I don't get out enough because people are finally saying how much smaller I look! The parents at my work said you can really see it in my face, and my friend called me a skinny ***** in a photo taken of me haha. Also, wore a crop top showing my mid drift Friday night and a…

Haven't fit in it in 12 years!
I have to share this with all of you who have had wonderful successes. I'm so excited, I have a little black dress that's been hanging in my closet for, I'm guessing, at least 12 years. I wore it maybe once or twice when I was in my mid twenties, which by the way, was the last time I was this thin. :frown: I tried it on…

I cant be THAT small!!!
For some reason I have been on a horrible plateau with poundage, but today I was thrift store fashion hunting and came across a skirt I thought wa super cute. It was in the medium section, which is where I am. I held it up looked at the waist and thought Im sure it will fit. I didnt bother to check the tag though. So I…

NSV
Okay, so this week I am only down1/2 lb. And for the previous 2 weeks didn't lose a thing! However on previous attempts to lose the weight at this stage is where I give up and talk myself into thinking I was just meant to be fat, so I in turn gain the weight back. However, this time with mfp I feel totally different. I…

Little sucesses which feel like BIG ones to me!
I am sooooo proud. I had this brown blazer in my closet that I bought several years ago when I first tried to lose weight and even though it fit it didnt fit right. At the time I thought well if I lose several more lbs it will fit well that day never happened until NOW. I am so proud of how far I have come. I know I still…

I ran a half marathon in the snow today .... :)
Today was my second ever half marathon. My first was sunny Miami Florida... Wisconsin is nothing like that. I have had this race on my calendar for a loooong time. This morning it was 15-20mph winds... raining/sleeting/snowing... and only about 36 degrees! Yet with all of that, I finished. I started out running for 30…

Officially Overweight!!!
Yes, I made it. I fought and fought this week and lost over 4 lbs, which dropped me out of the obese category. I am so excited! The best thing about it is that I stayed strong while stuck on the plateaus. In the past, I would have just felt defeated, but reading the posts from many of you here on MFP kept me motivated to…
