Wow that's a great weight loss and personally I have found this very inspiring having just completed my first week. Well done.0

I like how you say "quality" calories!!! That is the key. I also give in to some ice cream and chips but make sure all my other calories are "quality".....Congrats on your SIZE 6!!!!0

I'm 5'0 and size 8-10 for years:( I would love to get down to 6. My dream come true would be size 4..long ways to go before i get there. Currently 137-138lb.0

I would love to see past and current pics. I am the same height and weigh just a little less than you when you started. It would be motivating to see how much difference 30lbs makes. Keep up the good work!
Moodyc82--the difference in jeans size could be due to different brands but also everyone carries weight differently. Two people could be the same weight and be different sizes for various reasons. I do find a lot of variation between brands, though.0 -

Kristin- Everyone I talk to can't believe i'm actually a size 9/10. I guess I hide my weight well?? I buy my jeans at express. But I do have a pair of size 5's that fit so go figure0

I started Jan. 2nd at 176. I'm 5'4" and now I'm 161. Stuck on a plateau for the last 2 weeks, but hoping to break it this week. Final goal weight is 125.0 -

How'd you do it? Just tracking food and exercise?0

CONGRAT'S!! I, like many others on here. would also like to know how you did it???
I have 30lbs to lose, and have 4 months left until a wedding/vacation I'd like to be slim and fit for!
I'm currently squeezing into size 11/12, and own one "back-up" pair of size 13 dress pants I bought over the holidays just-in-case. I'm a goo 9-10" taller than you, but also have 30+lbs to lose, and I do own a pair of size 6 jeans I fit into for about a month 5 years ago...although my goal is to fit comfortably into a size 7.0 -
Congratulations! I love hearing about successes..so inspiring and motivating.0

I have actually been doing Weight Watcher's since September but honestly, it's very similar to using all the food tracking tools available right here on MFP. I am allowed to eat 26 points which is about the same as 1200 calories here
The secret trick is to TRACK all your food you put in your mouth! I actually write down EVERYTHING I eat (in a journal I bought at WW) and stay within my points. My husband tracks his diet right here on MFP and is already down 20 lbs since November!
In addition to my 26 WW points, I get an extra 49 points per week that I can use at anytime (blow them all on one night or a little everyday). This has kept me sane since I feel like I'm cheating but yet I still lose weight! My husband has adopted a version of this concept and allows himself an extra 2000 calories per week for "cheating" and is still losing weight!
I try to exercise 3 times/week but I don't alaways get to itAnd I'm always doing something different... fast walk, step class, bootcamp, strength training
Being accountable to that scale every Monday morning has also helped, I think! And lastly, keep your goals small... like every 5 lbs or every dress size because thinking of the big picture can sometimes be overwhelming!0 -
Yes, I will post before and after pics soon. My current profile pic is actually at 137 lbs... time to change it0

Well done:)0
