    woohooo!!! you look amazing!!! great job!!!! I could use some good advice if you have any. I am new on here and am giving it my all, but the more help and support the better!!!! Have a great week!:smile:

    My best little nugget of advice is this: Don't be afraid to cut your own path when it comes to choosing what you eat. Before I started all this, I always had the *intention* to eat healthier and lose weight, but it seemed so hard because the people around me weren't interested in changing their habits at all. How could I lose weight when my friends and partner always wanted to get fast food or make bacon sandwiches for lunch? I had to completely step back from our old way of eating. My partner and I essentially stopped sharing meals -- she ate her junk, and I ate the healthier foods that I chose. We had to shop separately, cook separately, and eat separately for a while.

    But, guess what? It wasn't the end of the world. Our relationship was still OK, and my friends didn't resent my choosing differently from them as much as I thought they would. It became the "new normal." And now, my partner has even (finally!) gotten onboard with MFP and started walking with me.

    Good luck!

    What can I say? You look wonderful and I want to share in what is making you so happy! Besides, you know me...now it's a competition. ;-)

    I love you and I'm looking forward to teasing the guys.
