@newstart1988 wow, thank you so much. That's so weird to hear, so many people in these boards have inspired me

@cmriverside haha, thank you so much

@PartyKardy thank you, I've worked so hard

@manderson27 thank you so much! Just starting to embrace my new body, and this is very helpful

@fidangul right, no i get that, I guess I was confused as those that read June 2 also said "week of" above it, but June 2 didn't start the week. Just curious

@bruhaha007 I'm not necessarily looking for ways to get more protein, I get at least 180g a day, so I'm ok in that area. I'm just looking for snack food choices other than the ones I listed because I'm tired of eating the same things

@tattygun what are crab sticks?

@Spliner1969 well I'm not going to be snacking on turkey chicken and pork, haha. I also eat light and fit yogurt for breakfast daily, so for me I wouldn't add it as a snack, but it is a great find. @bruhaha007 you know, I can't get with the texture of cottage cheese, just can't do it. And I already do protein bars, too

Where did the June 2 date come from? Won't this start the week of June 5th?

I've scanned the serial number into mfp as well and it does not list any carbs, so I just go by that

Taco Bell! Specifically a fiery Doritos locos cheesy gordita crunch, but really the whole menu

Age: 29 Height: 5'6" Total Weight lost: around 50lbs Time it took to lose: 5 months How long in maintenance: almost two weeks Maintenance weight range: 150-155 Average weight recorded from January: not recorded Average weight recorded from February: 182.4 Average weight recorded from March: 173.5 Average weight recorded…

So I'm 5'6, 155lbs, and about an 8. Not exactly what you're looking for, but since no one else has posted a picture, I figured I'd at least give you a reference.

@storyjorie no, I actually don't get a period at all. I am not on the pill

Myfitnesspal numbers are not exact, no measurement will be. It is safe to have an extra 200 calories at the end of the day, as in actuality you may not actually need those. If it were higher, like if you had 800 extra calories daily, that'd be more necessary to address.

Slow cooker cilantro lime chicken. I usually eat it with half a whole wheat tortilla, but can eat it by itself. It's delicious and easy to plan with because you can make a whole batch to prep with

Omg you look terrific! I know what you mean about the emotion of actually seeing it. You must have worked your butt off, literally and figuratively. Way to go!

@kwtilbury what do you mean about the avatar? Sorry, I'm not understanding the correlation

Congrats, you look awesome! And it's obvious how much happier you are, can feel it radiating off of that second picture. That's the best. Congrats again!

Push it-sean Paul and pretty Ricky

Cookies and creme is my number one fave, but smores is a close second

@Macy9336 did you gain any weight that you attributed to water weight when you transitioned to maintenance?

@bbell1985 well I'm hoping it's not. I'm hoping I'm eating at maintenance so I didn't actually gain anything but water weight. I mean I won't know for sure for a couple more weeks, but that's my hope

@bbell1985 due to my birth control, I don't menstruate regularly (really at all) so I don't believe that has an effect. But based on your results, I feel solid, so thanks

Thanks everyone

@rdupuy1142 Thank you, but I really feel like you're not capturing what I'm getting at here

@Salecca yes, I'm well aware. I didn't say anything about gaining fat, so I'm not sure how that post was relevant, but ok
