You look awesome!.. I am a student with a part time bartending job, hazard of the job is beer!. I did start to drink bud 55 but plan on trying to cut it down, or out completely. Hearing every one elses stories is a great motivator!.

WOW!! This makes me want to keep going! On average how much did you lose a week?

well, the first week was alot, thats why i think it was mostly water weight, it was like between 8-10 pounds... then ive lost a steady 3 pounds a week since... all ive done is drastically change my eating habits, found a low calorie goal that my body likes, i walk every day, and my husband and i have a push up and sit up routine that we do together each night. he also has lost right around 25 pounds, i dont know his loss exactly... but somewhere between 20-25 pounds hes lost! he is following the same plan as i am. we are both naturally big. he is 6 foot 3 and i am 5 foot 10, both large frame...so, i think our bodies are tolerating the low calories quite well. i lost 50 pounds back 4 years ago following this same plan, and kept it off for 2 years until we quit smoking... then i gained it all back plus some! i dont want to be petite... i just want to get back to my normal size, a size 12, and be happy! good luck to all of you, im really excited to see everyones progress over the next few months!!!

Thats really awesome. I just signed up yesterday, so I'm only 2 days in. I have an initial goal of 40 lbs. I have trouble staying optomistic. What kind of exercise are you doing?

Thats really awesome. I just signed up yesterday, so I'm only 2 days in. I have an initial goal of 40 lbs. I have trouble staying optomistic. What kind of exercise are you doing?

i walk alot... my walk route is 5 miles... i also do several sets of push ups, crunch type things that my husband does, and squats, every night before bed. i have a full mini gym in my garage, but have not used it in a long time... so, after our move next weekend, my husband will be setting it up for us in the new garage, and we will make sure it gets alot of use! i also have 5 kids, a house, 3 dogs and 2 cats, so im always on my feet and on the go... that has to burn some calories... right? lol...

ive still got alot of more weight to loose! i know its always faster coming off at first, but i'll be happy with even a 2 pound per week loss!!! im looking forward to meeting my half way mark, and then totally stoked about reaching my final goal!!! im excited for all of us!!! good luck to all of you!!!

Man! You look great! I know what you mean about the beer, too. When I first started on MFP, looking up the calories on those beers I used to drink all the time, just going out for happy hour after work or hanging out with my friends on the weekends- it really makes you realize they all add up!!

dlaplume2

Those are great results.
