I'm in. I'm fairly new here. I currently am exercising 7 days a week, strength and treadmill 3 days, bike 9-16 miles 4 days. I used to walk, but living in southwest Florida, it was tough to keep it up this summer. Still thinking about what I'll be stepping up.

This challenge sounds great! Count me in. I started low carb the beginning of June, lost 10 lbs and then hit a plateau. Started keto last week and lost 2 more lbs. CW: 178.6 Daily carb count: 20 - 30 grams total, not net

Great progress! I read that when keto strips get lighter, you are becoming fat adapted.(Keto Clarity by Jimmy Moore). Great for you. My strips are still deep purple, but I'm only a week into my keto diet. I was doing more of a paleo before.

That is amazing!!! Would love to hear how you did it. You look so much younger!!

Eat 1200 calories a day, absolutely no sugar, don't eat many carbs and exercise EVERYDAY." Also he asked me to check my sugar every day and to call in my morning and evening readings to him every week. I wish my doctor had told me this when I was first diagnosed. Great job on your A1C results. Keep it up!!

I am very impressed with your progress. Way to keep at it and enjoy the journey along the way!! What a great inspiration you are!!

I'm in, too. First challenge for me. Starting weight - 180 10% -18 lb Goal Weight - 162 Ultimate Goal Weight - 141

You have done an outstanding job! I am 67 years old and about a month ago added heavier weights into my program. I am definitely noticing a big difference in how I look and feel. Congrats!!!

Hi, my name is Sherry. I need a friend to hold me accountable too. I have a little less than fifty pounds to go. My consistency has always been an issue for me. We can help each other.

Congrats! You are doing a great job!

I'm new here, too, and finding lots of useful advice. Good luck!

That's over 60 pounds! Great job! I have 46 to go and success stories like yours keep me motivated.

Just amazing!! What a role model for those of us just starting out on our journey! I will remember your tips and your absolutely wonderful results. Yes I can, yes I can, yes I can!!!

You can do this - you have proved that you can. I'm new here but have spent a lot of time reading the advice. The constant theme here is success is a given if you log your food and eat within your calorie limits. What is so cool is that it's not all that complicated. And when you reach your goal, you will still have as…

What an awesome achievement. Thanks for sharing. I love your pics with that big smile!!!

I love your post. You covered a lot about how you are doing now vs. before. How cool is it that you don't care as much about your weight number, especially after your severe disordered eating. I got into running like you - the great feeling I got from it made me want more and more. I did a few marathons, and somehow,…

Impressive, thorsmom!! My longest is my current streak of 10 days.

I feel the same way about getting old and unhealthy. I have been told that diet counts for most of the weight loss, so your trainer is right on track. Good luck to you! I have requested you as a friend so we can help each other.

Just saw your pics, Linseymout. Wow!!! Very inspiring!

Vada, that sounds so much like me. We can definitely help each other along. Linseymout, you have done an amazing job. I'm inspired!! My new mantra is, "I've got this!!"

Hi Stacy, my name is Sherry and have to lose about 50 pounds. I'm new to posting but have been here awhile. I find reading the posts very motivating. The best ones are straight to the point. They always stress weigh and log your food and stay within your calorie allotments. I have always wanted to follow some diet plan in…
