Follow up with my Oncologist

He was sooooo proud of me, loosing weight - exercising - He said that I could not be helping myself remain cancer free in any better way than eating right and exercising. Plus, it was a total hoot to see myself weigh less then 200 pounds on…

I DID IT!!!!!!! First goal reached!!!
I had a small goal to lose 10 pounds, and I have done it! Well, I'm 0.6 lbs away from it, but I'm celebrating NOW!!! lol It was so terrible the first two months, I wasn't losing ANY weight. I was hovering around 160 for two months, despite all my physical effort. I didn't know why, then I took a look at all the…

B& in process. 50lb gone. Tell me what you think.
Some of these pictures are embarrassing, but I wanted to share them with the MFP community. Hopefully some of your feed back will help further my motivation for weight loss and healthy living. I also hope that this may help motivate some of you too! I've lost around 50lb and I'm about 25lb from where i really want to be.…

50 pounds!
I can't believe it. I stepped on the scale today and I am down 50.6 pounds since 8/17/2010. I am so happy I can barely sit here and write this. I have finally stepped up my exercise and really seeing great results! I find it so hard to keep up exercising. I have a highly stressful job, and am usually so mentally beat up at…

NSV - Size Medium Shirt (also P90X question)
As said above, I'm experiencing a NSV! I pulled a long sleeved shirt out that I was saying to myself "this won't fit or be flattering because I need to lose more weight for this" and put it on because I needed an extra layer and turns out it actually fit and doesn't look the best, but doesn't look terrible either!!! :)…

NSV- Sub Size 30 Jeans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have alway been told growing up that I was "big boned" so I have always had this stigma that I was always going to be at the upper end of sizes. For example, clothes at forever 21 NEVER fit my bottom half...EVER... UNTIL last night...not only did I get into size 31's (i didn't even know they sold these in the store…

NSV- Long johns!
I'm heading out to do some outlet mall shopping on my day off but it is bitterly cold outside. I decided I would try to get some long johns underneath my jeans and see if I could button up my pants and be comfortable enough to wear them. The jeans fit! I actually have extra room too and these are jeans that did not fit me…

I have my body back :) (pics included)
Last year I put on 40 pounds over the winter. It was a culmination of so many different things. Ever since my senior year of high school, I'd had a pretty fast metabolism (it finally kicked in after years of being pretty chubby—plus I was finally growing in height, as well), especially when I ate regularly, took care of…

Ive lost 72lbs so far and here are some before and afters! Before: After:

Before and Current
So, it's only been 12 lbs, but I looked at these today, and holy cow! The weird part is that m clothes dont seem to fit any better or worse. But my pants have always either been too big or too tight. I keep trying to see what it is in these pictures that's making the difference. hard to believe that it's just cause I lost…
-
FINALLY!!!!!!!!
YES!!! I finally hit the 50lb lost mark!!!! WOOOHOOO only 43lbs to go!!!

My first 10 pounds!
I have lost 11 pounds since I began this diet. I've never, ever succeeded on a diet well enough to break the ten-pound-loss mark before!! I've got a long way to go -- another 54 pounds to my target weight -- but this has really made me believe that if I keep it going, slow and steady, I can DO it!

My Before & After
So I've put on about 10 lbs since summer, and am working up the motivation to "get it done" again. I was looking through some facebook pics and found a picture of me at my heaviest - two summer ago. Then I found my favorite "skinny" pic! What a difference. I need to start kicking my bootay again! - Cate

My Journey So Far
Well I am 5 days in and so far so good, I am 9 lbs lower on scales. Eating healthier than I have in years. I am waiting to see how long I have these large losses daily, I know it won't last forever and the real work will start then. All I know is this coming summer I don't want to be the person small kids point at and say…

Mid week weigh in
Not the official weigh in, it's on Sunday,but down 2 more pounds, I'm so very proud of me. It feels good saying good things aboout myself. I always put myself down so part of this process is to speak to myself and encourage myself like I do others. Going to treat the little girl in me with love and kindness:flowerforyou:

WOOTASTIC!!!
Today I did my weigh-in and fort the first time in years I've creeped back into the "healthy" range for my BMI. I can't tell you how happy this has made me! The best part is I am now only 13 lbs away from my final weight goal! The last year has been so great. I've discovered that I actually enjoy being active. I hike, play…

Anybody feel weird with success?
Okay, nevermind. I don't think weird is necessarily the right word here. Today I reached my 20 lbs lost mark. (only 10 more to my goal!) That's been over about a 3 month span. It just feels, too easy. I haven't felt deprived of anything. I haven't necessarily been on a health food kick. I haven't cut out the occasional…

My fave picture from our party
We had such a fantastic time at the party last night - I would never have worn an outfit like this if I didn't feel so good about losing this weight, so thanks MFP'ers - you guys have changed my life and I love you all xxxx

BMI in the normal category!
I had my weekly weight in today and it came in at 178.8 pounds. For a 5' 11' guy like myself, that puts my BMI at 24.9, which is officially in the normal range! I know it's just in the normal range by a hair, but it feels like I've made a serious step forward. I'm down 7.2 pounds now, with another 14 to go. That will put…

80 pounds lost on a long journey...
My twin sister just found our 'Fat Years' photographs and I was completely shocked to see what I used to look like. Long story short, I was an inactive teenager who sat and watched TV all day and ate WAY too much. By the time I was 13 I was almost 200 pounds at only 5' tall. I was wearing 36 men's pants and size large…
