here goes...I'm going to make a confession to you all...since all of you are just so amazing to me! Over the last few months, I have been pretty good about logging my food and exercise (when or if I do any) and really haven't been very inspiring with any of it. But this Sunday, I've decided to make a certain personal lifestyle change and with this change, I went from weighing 251 on Sunday to 246 today! With this loss, it's made me really realize that I too can do this! I too can be just as amazing as you all are! I'm so tired of this up and down with the weight and not "living" the way I want. Reading all of your stories and your personal experiences, I know that I can stay motivated. I just need to remember that you all aren't just beautiful inspirations with pics, but also great motivators. So, with me asking you all for your help for motivation and suggestions (which is a VERY hard thing for me to do:ohwell: ), I would like to one day show you my final "before and after" pics and personal experiences. Thank you all for being you! Keep up the inspiring work and your amazing lifestyles! XOXO

Good for you!!!! Just remember even the most motivated have bad days..the trick is to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get right back on that pony!

Amen. One bad day, three, four or 10 bad days in a row is NOT an excuse to quit... though many people use it as one. Just get back on the bandwagon and try again. And NEVER, EVER give up! Remember you've got to do this for LIFE so you can LIVE!

Good for you! I too am finding that I'm worth the effort it takes to become healthy. Go us! I'd also love to know what change you made.
