    You look fantastic. I was never tiny, but I wish to be - I am about your height and about your start weight. What did you do to change so much?


    thank you! I honestly just listened to the MFP forums... took advice from the amazing people on here. I try to measure my food, eat cleaner ( brown rice instead of white), actually have one serving. I exercise...nothing crazy ( 30 min cardio/ 30 min weights) I aim for 3x a week... realistically its 1-2 x per week. I walk the dog. switched to light beer. Just take it 1 pound at a time.... it will come off. I have gained a few back since my honeymoon in august... trying to not get back to where I was.

    Eat a lot of protein... eat off a smaller plate/ bowl.....

    surround yourself with supportive MFP friends! Good luck!

    That is the saddest thing I've ever heard! why do some people bother getting pets??? That's so upseting! My dogs are so special to me and are like my children! The pics with santa is Cody and my Cavalier Lucas. The newer pics are with Milo our beagle. We put Lucas done a year ago and I have not been the same without him. Milo is a rescue as well.... took a long time to socialize him...

    Your dog loves you soo much I'm sure!!

    Nice Job Cody!! Way to push your mom and support her!! My oldest (dog) is overwieght because my husband thought -before we started daating- that she needed her own plate of people food too!! He thinks Im mean because I refuse to let them have people food and I only give them a cup of food at a time! But she is losing weight!!
    BTW Codys mom, you look like a young Rachel Ray...very pretty!

    You look darling! So cute. We have a black lab mix we adopted 3 years ago from a shelter- one of 9 puppies- the mom died after giving birth. Love her!
