Super Strong!
So I'm usually pretty rushed in the AM. I get up, shower, iron my clothes, blow dry my hair, pack my lunch, get dressed for work and ride out. A normal morning for many a happy employee. I typically run about ten minutes late so I eat breakfast when I get to work. I get a cup of hot water and two little pats of butter from…

10 pounds shed
It took about five weeks of nothing through most of May, but then I dropped about four pounds of water weight (I now drink water like crazy, which has helped stop rampant water retention) and started losing in earnest in June. It's just a pound a week because the only exercise I'm able to do is fast walking for about an…

I'm actually LOSING
I'm excited to announce that I'm LOSING weight. After months of being on a plateau (and losing motivation by the day because the scale was up-down-up-down-up-down), for the past four weeks I have lost weight every week except one (the one week that every woman dreads and gains no matter what). As of today, I've lost 4.2…

10 lbs!

Talk about a motivating feeling :happy: Thanks again for all of the support here. 66lbs to go!

Someone else noticed!
Finally someone else noticed I've lost weight--I was just thinking yesterday that I've lost almost 20% of my original body weight! And yet only 1 person has noticed. But then this morning, we had a church breakfast and a couple people said "you looking really different-have you lost weight?" I was so happy! When I told how…

It has been one month since I started my diet and I have los
...Over twenty pounds! I started out a slight bit over 250lbs (I am a 5'9" male) and weighed 229.8 this morning. I have also lost nearly 4" off my waist and my face looks noticably thinner. My goal is to be 215 by the time I go back to school (August 18th) and under 200 by December. My goal weight is 160lbs.

shed a tear in spin class today.....for good reasons
Never in my life have I ever felt so powerful. I have put in 6 very strenuous workouts this week, eaten my calories (except for spluring last night by about 500), and done this thing to a tee. During spin class today (75 mins) I realized that never in my life have I ever felt a greater sense of accomplishment with…

Forced myself to go for a jog/ walk
I usually like to just jog, but this morning I wasn't feeling like it, my body seemed a little soar and swollen. I did a lot yesturday including a 4 mile jog. So at 5 AM this morning I told my daughter that I wasn't going, but then I turned back around and told her I would give it a try. We jogged a little, but in total we…

Good Morning everyone... I did it.. happy to say I hit the 5 pound mark.. !! Very excited but also will be finding the next 5 pound goal much more of a challenge. In the past when I have tried weight loss, those first 5 pounds always seem to come off ..except I must admit, it took me 6 weeks last time to lost 5 pounds, and…

For the first time I have 434 calories left over. I have no idea how... feel like I ate a lot, and I did my normal workot. I even double checked to make sure I logged everything. So, I must not be as hungry or something YEA!!!:smile:

My first personal victory
Every Friday we have group of friends over. Everybody brings something to the table. We eat, we talk, they talk- I eat... They leave, I still eat something... Today I've decided to be strong: about an hour before gests arrival, I ate a can of "progresso bean soup" (300 cal). I was so stuffed when everybody came, that I was…

Ever have one of the moments.....
....where you just look in the mirror and think, "damn I look good"! I just experienced that and it was quite a good feeling. I've only lost 12 pounds so far (though I am on track with a pound a week) but it has really made a difference. It also helps that I just got an airbrush tan, and I always think a tan makes you look…

what a nice feeling!
So, as of this morning I've lost 9lbs since 16 days ago when I began. Today we went for a picnic date with some friends and their kiddos and the two friends who were there when I showed up made me feel so great! I got off my bike and was getting my children out of the trailer and they started talking about how great I look…

Well, what do you know..
Hard work really does pay off! Hahaha. So after my 12 day vacation to Cali and gaining back 1 lb which put me at 124, I lost the lb! On my frame its really annoying because if I get to about 130 (my ugly number) and then lose say 5 lbs..no one really notices. But, if I lose 2 more lbs..it never ceases to fail..at 123…

Yay me!!
I've been on this site for one month now and I can say that over the past 15 years of trying to become the 'skinny me' that's inside, I have never found something that has helped me SO much!! I've lost 18 pounds and now a pair of pants that I bought but never wore because they were too small, are almost too big!! I really…

All this in 2 1/2 months!!! Yes, it's still in the obesity spectrum, but slowly but surely, it's coming out of it. I can't wait until I'm just…

10 pounds lighter!
I just had to let everyone know that I am officially 10 pounds lighter than I was a month ago! :noway: For me, I've wanted to focus more on my figure rather than the scale, but this is an achievement I can't deny! I also took measurements today, and I've lost 1 inch in my waist and 1 in in my hips. Not as much as I'd like,…

OH MY GRACIOUS!!!!!
Today on my way home, I figured I am gonna stop at the mall and walk around a lil. So I wonder into Steve and Barry's and they have that line from SJP(sarah jessica parker) called "Bitten". I was there not TOO long ago with my boyfriend basically whining about how those would "never fit" but I was curious. I grabbed up a…
