I think you have to surround yourself with positive people. I agree that people are just used to seeing you one way and not the one you are making for a better you. My boss told me I am a good success story, my mother-in-law at one point did say I am getting too skinny, but I didn't listen because I was not at my goal yet,…

I am going to start working on muscle tone, I think mostly it has been pure fat. Although I have done a lot of walking and started moving up to running/walking which I think has put some muscle tone on the legs. Plus it is what we in Nebraska call woodin season, so when the hubby is cutting I am the one loading the flat…

I did it!!! 30.5lbs, 5 inches from the waist, 6.5 inches from the hips, and dropped from a size 12 to a size 8. And not mention I feel amazing!!

Hello, I need help. Today for lunch I had a Chinese chicken salad, it was made up of chicken breast chunks, Napa cabbage, green onions, sliced almonds, crunchy noodles(ramen noodles) with a piquant dressing. Would you happen to have an idea on how many calories, I figured 450. Thanks Brenda

Hang in there it gets easier

I am on day 15, down 5lbs. I know you can do it, sometimes I get the growls around 9-10 pm, I just ignore, cuz I know I am either at my limit or too close. I think I have tried every weight loss drug out there, this is working and is teaching me a change in lifestyle.

I have a question on why we are told to eat your fruits and vegetables, but the sugars in them go against my goal? To me I would think the sugar in an apple would go in a good sugar category vs bad sugar
