    Amazingly great!! What exercises did you do? How about diet? How tall are you? I am 5' 9" and I am your age . I started at 203 and am now one month later at 192 pounds. I am just looking for some ideas.

    My diet is nothing spectacular. It's clean eating (most of the time-I slip like everyone else!) but get right back in the game the next day. I'm 5'5". It's been a tough road-I won't kid you. It's alot of sweat, hard work, determination, and motivation from all my friends here. I started out on my treadmill, and also bought a weight bench and elliptical. My elliptical is my best friend. Another thing I did was create an 'inspiration' board. I write motivating quotes to myself, have a before pic on there, and would include supporting posts from here, like the comments when I hit 199. I look at it all the time and no matter how tired I am, I'm going just a little bit more.

    You look absolutely fabulous, and I WANT legs that look like yours! Way to go, Cindy! And just an FYI, that beagle in your ticker looks a LOT like my beagle girl!

    I miss my little girl....she passed in October of 2011. I'm about ready for another one :)

    Thank you all again so much! All these posts mean the world to me!! Congrats to everyone on making the decision to be on this journey, and always remember : you're not where you want to be, but you're better than where you were yesterday :)

    What the crap! You look FANTASTIC!!!!!

    My name is Lisa, I'm 44 years old with 2 daughters 10 and 11. I've been doing MFP since February and it's been very slow. Could you give me any advice or helpful tips as to what helped you? Is your diary open so I can take a look? Did you do the TDEE/BMR everyone is talking about? Any help would be great. Thanks again, and you really look great! Way to go!
