May I please have your attention...
Ahem... As of today, I, Mary (name withheld), can wrap a bath towel around herself (not a bath sheet, a bath towel), and NOT flash all her naughty bits to everyone in the house. It's been a long time coming, but it sure feels good. I think I'll wear just a towel all day. Maybe even to the store. Thank you. :bigsmile:…

....and still losing!
Hi everyone! I have to say I am in aw and kind of floating at this moment. I am still on a high from this weekend and to top it all off I weighed myself this morning and lost another 2.6 pounds. Which brings me to a grand total of 20 pounds since I started on MFP in mid Jan. I went from a size 10-12 to a size 6-8 depending…

FINALY...!!!!!
I was getting down in the dumps about not losing. But I tend to expect miracles and as many on here want to start seeing results ASAP. I was dedicated to the diet this week. I didn't excercise, I'm trying to slowly work my way in as to not overwhelm myself. I LOST 4 LBS! So now I just pray I lose a pound a week as a…

Wow!...I'm kinda in shock.
I gotta say first that I love MFP. My husband is always bugging me because I can't eat without running to my computer to input my calories. It's so accessible and definitely has made me responsible about what I put in my mouth. I reached my first goal of losing 11 lbs and reaching my pre-pregnancy weight, about 5 weeks ago…

Pool open today
Today the city pools opened and I was ALL EXCITED!!! It broke me out of my blah blah blah sad slump(also you guys all helped). But round lunchtime it started POURING and STORMING!!!! I was saddened by that but it cleared up quickly leaving for intense humidity so I knew I needed to hit the pool. I also never have a gym day…

What a long, strange trip it's been...
My battle with the bulge has been on since I hit puberty :blushing: many, many, oh so many years ago. In the 1st grade, I was diagnosed with a duodenal (sp) ulcer and put on a restrictive diet...(no grease, spice, limited dairy)...the family doctor referred to me as the "string bean" during these years. Unfortunately, once…

My First Pound
OMG! I lost my first pound!! I am so excited. I guess its kind of dorky to be ranting over 1 measly pound, but whatever...it feels glorious - and I know my fellow MFPers can understand the sensation. :happy: :smooched: :drinker: :wink: :laugh: :smile: :glasses: :blushing: :flowerforyou: Today is a great day!!!

Day at the beach
Yesterday my boyfriend and I drove 2 hours to spend a day at the beach. It was wonderful and beautiful. The best part...I was wearing size 12 Old Navy shorts (which seem to be smaller than other stores size 12) and a strapless shirt! No fat was hanging out and I was totally comfortable. It's been a long time since I've…

To Infinity and Beyond! Well, almost!
At least to 30 miles! I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT! 30 mile ride--took me 2 hours and 40 minutes but the last 10 miles was into a head wind. :grumble: My legs felt great but my overall stamina needs some increasing--that's for sure.

I Did Not Cave!!!
When I REALLY wanted to!! I was out running erands all afternoon. I had an early lunch (11ish), and around 3:00 I was ravished. I almost pulled into the nearest gas station for some convience store junk food, but I just told myself "hello- your not going to starve to death in the 20 minutes it takes to get home and fix…

Someone finally noticed!!
After losing 35 pounds so far, someone finally noticed!!! I was in the grocery store and stopped to talk to a lady from church; I had on my new shorts (2 sizes smaller than my old ones!). She started to say hi, stopped, and said "you have lost weight--you're looking great!" I about danced right there in the store--finally,…

I survived the office birthday!
I turned down birthday pie (lemon icebox, too...yum)! I'm really proud of myself. I've been well-known in my office as a sugar addict. They were shocked to hear me say, "I pass." Some people can diet and eat the occasional sweet still. I can't. Like any other addiction, I have to steer clear or I lose control. I do give…

Sprained Ankle update: waistline not doing good
So, since last Monday, when I sprained my ankle, I’ve been really bad. I was good, up until the weekend, and I’ve gone to dinner parties Friday, Saturday and Monday night this week, which consist of me throwing all caution to the wind and eating like a crazy person… Everyone else is, so why not me right? Today: No excuses.…

Goal Achieved- Kind of- LOL
OK, so I started my new lifestyle in October & I finally reached my original goal of 185. I stopped my alchohol consumption, except for once in a while- special occasions, etc, really watching what I eat and exercising 6 days a week 1 to 2 hours a day. It has been a long and hard journey, but well worth it. I was…

Might be working
It's taken seven weeks, but I think (just think) it might be working. When and if I reach 165 lbs, I'll know. If it is working, here's hoping it keeps working. :)
