Where is everyone???? I KNOW I'm not the ONLY 300+lb person that would like the support of someone that has a CLUE about what I'm going through! I just saw a picture posted in the before section of a girl who was ashamed to show her before picture because she was "too fat"...I think she weighed PROBABLY 120lbs...AT THE MOST! LOL.
COME ON PEOPLE!!!! LET'S TAKE OFF OUR SPANX in here!!!! LOL...let's get REAL and show each other some REAL support so that we can make a REAL change in our lives!!!
WHO'S WITH ME!!!!!????? RAAAWWWWRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

I hear you. When you have such a long way to go, this is a very long term experience and support is all the more important for success. I find that it's hard to relate with or feel excited for those that only have to lose 10-15 pounds. (just my problem, they deserve as much support as anyone) Each group has their own challenges so we all need to be here for one another. I haven't been doing so well with my efforts the last week and a half, but I'm hanging in there. I am hoping to be under 300 by December 1st.0

The last time I work Spanx was on my wedding day (so 5 ish years ago). Those things are evil torture devices. LMAO0 -

Me too - it's not that I don't feel great for them, but when I would love to lose 10 lbs in 5 weeks.. it's frustrating and hard to relate. Nothing should take away from anyone's celebration, so I just do my best to be supportive.
I would love to kick these few lbs I've been yo-yoing with for the last few months and get these 20+ lbs to be under 300 lbs in the first quarter of 20140 -
I'll bet things will be hopping when January 1st rolls around. Just think how ahead of the game we will be by then, even if we do fall into a plate or two of Christmas cookies. :laugh:0

@Wowgirl: Absolutely, I'm totally with you! And you are right, it's not that they don't deserve support it's just that they have waaayyy different challenges than we do and it's nice to go through this with people who can speak to the challenges that we can relate to. About being off track...one thing that I've learned along the way is that I had to stop looking at it as "being off track"...and more like I ate something...now I just need to continue eating my normal (healthy) way. I don't know if that comes across how I mean it...but just don't let little slip ups break your stride. Try to move on from it as quickly as you can. We're here for you though!

@Vondelynn: HAHAHAH!!! YES! the only thing though is BOTH times that I have purchased spanx...I got the LARGEST SIZE and they RIPPED as I tried to put the dang things on! I guess it just wasn't meant to be!
Yeah, I hear you...but like Wowgirl said...this is a SLOOWWW and looongg terrrmmm process. don't let the amount of time it's taking you discourage you. Just keep pushing. 0 -
Count me in. It's nice to talk to other people who know what it's like to be 300+lbs0

@emily...RIGHT???? LOL!
I've decided I'm not going to have T-giving dinner at my house JUST because I don't want all those naughty leftovers! HOWEVER, I AM cooking a lighter version of everything (b/c T-giving is my FAVORITE meal of the year) and in smaller portions. I'm smoking a turkey, reduced fat mac and cheese with whole wheat pasta, sugar free cranberry sauce, whole wheat and turkey sausage stuffing, and kale! I made everything last year and it was DELICIOUS! Well, I actually am going to figure out a better mac and cheese recipe...think I'll add FF greek yogurt so that it is a little creamier. 0 -
In for supporty goodness. Just hit the lost 50 lbs today and maybe not long until I can get under the 300 mark. Then still have 120+ lbs to do battle with. I know road so far and well wishes to everyone!0

Today I dropped under 300lbs. Only just at 299lbs but it's under 300.0

YYYYYYAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!! That is SOOO Frickin AWESOME! WHO CARES if its "just" to 299? The bottom line is that you are outta the 3s! Now you can just say "ohhh...I weigh 2something" LOL.

Thanks. I have to admit I'm rather chuffed about it lol0

What's SPANX btw? Is it something in the uk we call a foundation garment? Basically squashes all your flab in using massively strong elastic so that you look smoother but actually can't breath or move properly.0
-
Yuppp...that would be spanx! HAHHAHHAHA...I think they should put YOUR description on the packaging to describe it...that would be HILARIOUS and true! Spanx is just a specific brand of that. 0

Hi Everyone! I am glad to see this room moving again---I have been on here over a year---started a 364. I am under 300, at 292....but I have been STUCK here for a few months!
Any tricks to breaking through a stuck spot? Bleh!!!
Recently started a new job, changed my whole schedule, so I am still trying to figure out my new workout times, meal times.
I am seeing a LOT of determination in here---whoo-hoo!0
