P.S. I do have some extra motivation now as Swati is down as much as I am. She looks fantastic and is ready for a new wardrobe.

Hey Randy - looking great! Now if only I could find a fish big enough to make me look small. B) Ms. D - what else can I say but wow! It's great to get a chance to catch up a bit. I am in a weird spot and can use some advice. This is the longest I have ever maintained a 30+ lb. weight loss so that's a BIG plus. B) In fact,…

Glad to see you have your head in the game. You're doing great! I wish I could say the same about me but a long 4th of July weekend at Lake George has me up quite a bit. Amazing what just 4 days off program can do! I'm not recording the gain as I expect to knock it off quickly. B)

So I go to the bank weekly and there are three different tellers that I typically deal with at the drive-thru. I've known them all for many years and they all know Swati and me by name and face. Each of them are very friendly and will often ask one of us how the other is doing. A couple of weeks back I show up with a…

One word: Fluctuating. I've been range bound for the past two weeks with my weight fluctuating between 205 and 210 lbs. I guess you can also call it maintaining but I am still really intent on hitting my goal of 193 lbs. Amazingly, my waist has dropped another full inch for a total loss of 7" overall. I have continued my…

Hey Suzi, Looking good! I think the blonde is a nice look for you. From the head and neck photo, I would never guess you still had weight to lose. Plus you look like you're in your 20's! Great job so far! -Michael

Congrats Suzanne! That's a nice week!

Wow - that's incredible! I've been so busy with the business, I haven't had much time to check on everybody's progress. It is great to see you doing so well. I know the word "inspiration" gets thrown around a lot but you are truly an inspiration to me and so many others. Wishing you (and everybody else) continued success!…

Lynn, You look so proud standing there and you should be. I'm proud of you as well. Keep it going! -Michael

Want to have a six pack? Here's an easier way to get there - or maybe not so much B) :

That is one heck of a week - Congrats!

Thanks all! B)

That's a nice week!

Congrats Randy! 40 is a big number and I hope to be following in your footsteps real soon.

So I lost last week's gain and then some. Down 4.4 lbs for the week and an even 37 overall! I should be able to hit the big 40 mark before the end of the month. One big change this week was that Swati and I took a rest week from exercising. We did some walking and some stretching exercises but that was it. We were going…

Very, very nice!

It's great to see all you approaching your goals and continuing to lose weight. It's also nice to see some of the newer members losing every week. Congrats all!

Welcome Gina & Maria! Wishing you both great success!

Good Morning Suzi! If you want to live longer, you can always do what I did. At 43, I bought a mid-life crisis sports car (in orange). I figure that's one way to live to 86! B) Seriously though, you're still plenty young to make the rest of your life whatever you want it to be - especially if you continue a healthy…

Thanks. Believe it or not, my bald spot is filling in. Not Joking! B)

So here's some Before and During pictures. BEFORE NUTRISYSTEM: AFTER FAST 5: AFTER 8 WEEKS: AFTER 14 WEEKS:

Wow - this is a first. I gained back most of the weight I lost last week. I did have to take some medication (nothing serious) on Friday that probably affected my weigh-in this week. That being said, my stomach is smaller and my muscles have grown. I'm pretty happy with my 14 week results. I've included some pics I took…

Nice Suzanne!

Believe me, I am no expert and struggle as much as anybody else. Swati and I are still trying to lose the weight we gained over the holiday weekend. :( When I say I am aware of what goes in my body, I am. And while I am careful with my choices for the most part, I do go off on occasion just like many others in this group.…

Gina, that is awesome. I feel the same way about the lifestyle change. To be honest, I've reached a point where I am eating off program 10 - 15% of the time and do have a drink or two when in a social situation (One note: I did not have a single alcoholic beverage for the first two months on the program). I no longer drink…

It really is.

Agreed. Quite a transformation already!
