I also went to an outdoors store..hiking kyak snowshoe you get the idea. before I gained this 130 pounds I shopped there alot hubby and I went on week long hiking the trail backpacking trips. last year I went in to grab something g for a child and I felt like everyone was thinking she is too big to hike kyak whatever (no…

That is the hardest part!! when I started in may and I got on the scale I weighed 50 lbs more than I thought I did. that was hard cause I felt like I had to loose 50 to be where I was the day before. I tried to focus on all the nsv along the way!!

I bought jeans and a bathing suit from costco without trying them on and they were not plus size. I got home tried on tje jeans and they fit size 14 "normal" size. (was a tight 20 in may) I was dancing around. Tried on the bathing suit....something I always struggle wearing in public (at home at the pool I swim laps) and I…

only problem I don't know whe're to shop. I've only had one option for so many years. I'm trying to buy minimal on tje journey so when I get to goal I can go out and buy lots. funny thing is I always thought I hated shopping but now I'm starting o love it!!

way to go great feeling!!

hi thanks for sharing feel free to add me if you like. I'm 40 with 2 kids. awesome thing you did for your sister by the way...totally amazing gift!! I'm down 65 lbs and I'm halfway there

Good job !!

My new project is aquaponics anyone tried it? apparently you can grow lettuces and swiss chard easily....seeds currently germinating

I jave found the same. I started worm composting for the casins for the garden and it is a gardeners dream!!

it is so much more than apples and salmon. many of the fruits and vegetables are gentically modified. did you see in the news they are feeding rejected candy to cattle and it is common practice yikes!!

I Have restless legs and they are so bad on rest day. I'm loving that I actually wand/need to exercise instead of forcing myself too.

shaving is waýyyy easier!! sometimes I forget how much I eat. like I'll be starving and I put all this healthy food into mfp and on my plate and sit down and can only eat 1/4 to half of it and am satisfied. that you can live through passing up on the bread basket before dinner.

I'm am introvert too. I would love to find a hiking partner!! Noone want to go outside in tje winter and it's not even cold. hubby comes but we jave different t days off.

not sad at all!! it all starts with a pound....you can do it.

I love that now I want to fit into that too!!

so awesome !!! you can do it...good work it's easier to get off 7 then 17 in another few months

I watch my sugar intake due to pre diabeties and fatty liver. I cut sugar no more pre diabeties now. So for me high sugar foods are not healthy. Nothing wrong with treats but if someone was eating all calories of chocolate bars not many nutrients in them. I try and look at food as fuel.....if it is full of chemicals I TRY…

That you actually want to move your body.....I don't want to go to a movie I want to snowshoe or hike or skate even if it's an activity that isn't my fav still better than sitting around That I need new friends.....friends that want do stuff other then sit and eat

my mini goal was getting out of the 230's and yay 229.6!! next mini goal is getting my knee healed and back to Karate...I'd just started and hurt my knee.

wow eay to go!! you all jave amazing transformations I can't wait to add that pic I saved the jeans in 37 more pounds I'll be back with pics!

wow good job!

I also agree naked is not for everyone I share my body with who I choose to. it has nothing g to do with comfort. I don't walk around a change room naked.period. I'm actually quite happy not sad at all :wink:

congrats on 100 pounds loss. that is fantastic. my switch flipped in may ended up prediabetic. food related fatty liver high BP couldn't walk around the block. thought I'd be dead in 5 years...that was may 2016 I was 39. well no more prediabetic BP down but still higher than I like. down 65 pounds with 70 more to go. I now…

well it may not be a huge weightloss but it sounds like the difference was pretty life changing for you....congratulations!! a triathlon is pretty huge!. good for you for catching it at 3lbs and not needing to loose a huge amount of weight( I waited till it was way out of hand)

to do up my smallest pair of pants from a weigjt loss in 2009. I lost 50 in 09 and gain 90between 2010 and 2016. I'm down 60 of that 90 and and going strong. that is the smallest I've been since having kids in 2004. I can force them done up but I will wait a week or two till I can comfortably due them up. they are outdated…

that if you stick with your goals and plan eventually your trigger foods just become foods.

I ate 3 pieces of pizza for dinner. I stayed within calories for the day. I have not had pizza for many months as I can't stop eating it at a reasonable amount it is a trigger food. I enjoyed my 3 slices and was satisfied. Pizza is no longer a problem for me

I stay away from those contest as sometimes my weigjt doesn't go down but sizes do. seems counterproductive to eat a bunch of garbage just to win a wl challange...the real win is the health benifit from real loss or muscle gain but that's just my 2 cents

good for you congratulations on your losses....both of them

2 more pounds to be in the 220's and hit 65 pounds list
