    I started on MFP 6 months ago and Tamtastic was my first friend request. You are such an inspiration to us all! Your lovely smile makes for a great wake up call in the morning!

    Thanks Tami

    Tami has taught me that is ok to eat things like rolls and still lose. She has taught me that no matter what life throws at me that I can handle it without the comfort of food. She has helped reinforce the tools that this site has given me. When I have an emergency and end up at Chilis instead of Fridays, she helps me off the ledge and points me in the direction to the guiltless grilled chicken. Tami, Tami, you are so fine, Tami Tami, so glad you're mine.

    yada yada yada, sish coom bah......

    Thank you.


    that is all.

    WOW!!
    Congrats Tam on your amazing adventure! Like most people have been saying you are a huge motivation to help us get to our goals which could be only a couple pounds to hundreds of pounds!
    Keep up the fantastic work! :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    My grandmother (my moms mom) died at age 49 and my own mother died at 50 (in 2000).

    There is too much life to live and I want to enjoy every minute, especially for my little boy and his future family.


    My father's failing health is a huge reason for this serious lifestyle change. And I want to be here for my kids as long as I can. I am so happy for you success and I look forward to my journey down this road. :bigsmile:

    hey tam! I have 8 lbs to go, pretty close to what you have left. have you found the last few lbs hard? it's been hard for me even though i've followed MFP. i was wondering, what cals are you at and how much exercise are you doing now? as well, are you currently at a healthy bmi? my feel like my body is not wanting to lose anymore and it's a bit discouraging at times. any advice to share (I will keep persevering though! no giving up now!)

    Thanks so much for your incredible story! you rock!

    Ironic you say that! LOL I am on a plateau going on 2 weeks now!! GRRR! LOL!

    I knew these last few lbs would give me a hard time. And yes I am in a healthy BMI which is probably why any weight I do lose is going to not only take awhile but take extra hard work!! :grumble:

    Oh well!! LOL! It's all good!!!
