  • Awesome transformation! How tall are you?
  • Hehe, you're so sweet. <3 I'm actually just vegetarian, so I still eat dairy products. I love your fruit snack you packed, cherries and grapes are my favorites! I'm hoping I can find a good sale on cherries soon. :) Barbie, thank you for the advice. I'm starting to remind myself that there's no rush, and we'll have our…
  • Haha! I love this part.
  • This just crossed my mind last week! I thought "This towel seems bigger now", and relished in it because I love over-sized towels. :D I'm also the same as you with the shirts. Several shirts I wanted to fit into again are too big on me now because they're size Large. Medium all the way now! And eyeballing Smalls. B) Ok…
  • Shirley, have a beautiful day! It's sounds so relaxing. :) Connie, enjoy your rest day! I hope it doesn't get too hot for you there. I don't drink coffee every day since my hiatus from working last year, but today it sounded good, so I'm finishing off my big round mug and then I'll get ready for the gym. My hubby is still…
  • Marie, you can do it! Remind yourself that you don't want the cake and ice cream because it's not vegan. And right now you're vegan. Not because of the calories. This helps me out a lot, since I don't eat meat. If I see something tasty like loaded nachos, I think "I'd like to eat some of those, but there's meat on them",…
  • I hope my belly is as flat as yours soon! You look great!
  • Amazing, awesome, fantastic! Your smile in the after photo says it all! I'm so thrilled for you!
  • You look fantastic! You look 10+ years younger, amazing. :D
  • Wow! You've done an awesome job, I can't even see the "15 to go". You should be very proud! I have 9 lbs. to go, and I look forward to being a beast once I reach that. :D And I agree, counting calories really works! It's great. :)

  • Me too! Let's do this!!
  • Connie, Stephanie, Marie, Tami, thank you all so much! Janice, that'll be my plan. :) I've decided if they won't do atleast $9 I'll have to turn down their offer. I can get job placement through my school starting at $10 an hour. I have too much retail and customer service experience to be working for less than $9. I do…
  • Oh I definitely appreciate your suggestions. And I agree with Mt. Washington versus Shepherdsville. I think Mt. Washington is thriving a bit more than Shepherdsville. I'll only be in school til the end of next year, and then who knows where I'll be working at. So it's hard to guess what my drive time will be then. If…
  • Haha, perfectly stated! Esther, what an awesome difference! You're kicking a**! :D Barbie, thank you! I definitely notice a difference, I even feel lighter. As each week passes, more and more clothes become too large. It's great for feeling the progress. I just hope I'll have some clothes that still fit by the end of this!…
  • Janice, it would've been nice to have you down the road from me! We were disappointed to find out the house is indeed in a flood zone. It's ridiculous, too. The creek next to it is down such a steep ravine it would have to pour for weeks to flood that land. I think the new flood zones is why the lady is selling the house,…
  • Esther, your daughter is beautiful! I love that you have her in different programs, I think that would've been good for me growing up. And all those awards, how awesome! You can tell she's very skilled and bright. :) Thank you, Esther, Marie, Connie, and Stephanie! It really is something to see the photos side by side. My…
  • Hey guys, so I decided to finally post my FIRST before-and-after pictures! (Exclusive to this group) The before was in October of 2014, after leaving my active job a month prior. The after was taken a few days ago. Any difference? I think I see a little difference. :D
  • Aw what a great picture, Janice! I would recommend really cutting down on your meat consumption and see if that helps your numbers. Chicken can just be literally soaked in sodium, they weigh it down with water and salt so that they can get away with selling less meat. It couldn't hurt to try for a month and see if there's…
  • Thanks, Marie! I hope so. :) I also just picked up a job today, haha. I'm not sure what the pay is yet, but as long as it's not horrible I'll take it, it'll be nice to be making a little something during this house buying process. I'll probably start in a week or two, so I'm going to be quite busy all the sudden. School,…
  • Thanks, Connie! And congratulations on your loss today! I hope it's because of your eat-more plan, I can't think of a better way to diet. :) They're here working on the AC this morning. Very noisy, but I'll be glad to have the central air again, these window units make the lights flicker. :/ I thought we were likely going…
  • Nice step count!
  • Nancy, I hope your husband's MRI went well today. You and your family need a break, that's too much to go through in one week. Shirley, I used to work at Panera Bread. The chicken hummus power bowl is delicious, I used to make it for lunch and substitute extra veggies instead of having the chicken on it. Their cilantro…
  • Connie, I hope your new plans brings you some great results! I'm 5' 8" and shooting for 134. :) We pretty much figured it out last night, but we woke up this morning and our AC is out. Luckily we're still in an apartment at the moment so that will get fixed for us! Hopefully it's fixed soon, it's starting to get…
  • Nancy, that's insane! I'm so glad he is going to recover ok, it's amazing that he thought and was able to call 911. You all are in my thoughts, I hope the doctors are able to numb his pain.
  • Marie, that's so exciting!! Your new plan really is working great!
  • That sounds like such a blast! I love your plan, lol!
