I am really fired up! I am down 25 pounds so far and while still consider obese by all weight charts I am feeling GREAT! I have pictures on my profile but for the life of me couldn't do them on here! Hopefully by the time I update my post to read '50 down, 25 to go' I will have it mastered! 10 pounds fell off the first week but it still is coming off amazingly fast and for the first time in years I don't feel like I am on a diet!

Congratulations! I wouldn't take too much notice of the BMI, just a guide! I'm just about to come out of the obese range myself but I know I'm not obese any more!
Best of luck with the final 25!0 -

Good job! How did you lose so much weight? It's going very slowly for me.0

Thanks everyone! If you look at my profile I explain it better but mostly I'm just keeping an accurate account of everything I eat. I have 8400 calories per week but during the seven days my calories are all over the place. I also don't eat back my exercise calorie. I'm also fat, haha, it tends to come off faster when you have so much to lose. I totally anticipate it slowing down but I am in it for the long haul!Good job! How did you lose so much weight? It's going very slowly for me.0 -
I see we have very similar goals - and have had similar successes. I'm on day 47.
Congratulations 0 -

Thank you! It has been my first successful attempt in years, all past diets ended with gaining weight! Counting calories and sticking to a WEEKLY goal has been the answer for ME!0

I didn't realize how big I had looked. That was my 4th attempt at a before picture because all were making me look too fat in the mirror! The after shot was taken once as I was coming back into the room. The before picture was the first time I had ever had such a big face! I was miserable!Wow! You look like you lost more than 25 lbs!0 -
Awesome work! Very inspiring to see someone make such incredible progress.

The difference 25 lbs makes on you is amazing - you look great.
I'm sure if your adorable dog could talk he would refer to himself as your personal trainer/walker. :laugh:0 -
