@Dad4Myla I'm glad you did! It's a great goal! And even if we get anywhere close it'll be great!

One week in and I've lost two pounds. Hopefully it will start coming off faster now! SW: 380 CW: 378

Beth Starting weight is 380 We can do it!

I'm just keepin on keepin on. My most recent nsv is that I fit in the chair at the eye doctor better yesterday than last year. My big goal right now is to fit in the theater seats at my daughter's dance recital at the beginning of June so it was encouraging. I hope everyone is doing well!

@bmeadows380 you look so great! I love that black dress!
-
Finally had my first NSV!!!! I put on a shirt I haven't worn in at least a year and it fits. It's even a little baggy! This is a huge deal for me because I've lost 26 pounds since I started on January 6th but you can't tell at all by looking at me. I've been super bummed the past few days because I weigh every day and the…

Yay! You all look great!!! You are so inspirational! I can't wait to join you either.

@fatoldladyonamission I think your treadmill plan is a great one! I've been thinking about yours and now I want one too. Your plan is solid and one day dog walks plus treadmill will be great exercise. And I'm sorry about your friends. One thing about being fat all of my life (except a few years in college) is that it made…

@tammyfranks2 sounds like my Sunday too. Homework, cleaning, and laundry almost finished. I just have to round the family up to fold and put away the laundry. Good job on not having fast food!! The flu is awful here too. I'm glad your son is better. I tried a blackened cod recipe for dinner tonight and it was awful! I'm a…

Taking a bath is a great goal! I love baths. I actually have been taking baths and reading instead of eating lately. Two years ago I tore some ligaments in my knee and I've been rolling up onto the edge of the tub and then leveraging myself out when I take a bath because I can't put pressure on my knee. It's humiliating…

@fatoladyonamission yay for the treadmill! It makes me want one, but I always tell myself I should walk my dog instead because it makes her so happy, and my weather leaves me no excuses either. Good job! I walked my dog twice last week. I missed Friday, but I went shopping with my daughter and walked a mile around the…

@Mellykay88 I hope you feel better soon! And kudos for working out in spite of feeling awful. @theowlbox I took your suggestion today and walked around and around my classroom peering over students shoulders. It's was 1000 extra steps! I'm going to keep looking for ways to add steps. A step goal might make it easier. I did…

I'm sure it's just a stall. Keep doing everything you are and it will start to come off again. Hopefully with a big loss! That's what happens to me.

Good job everyone! Especially for going to the gym. I can't imagine that right now. I have this super exhausting life right now where I work all day and drive my kids to practices until 10:30 most nights. This week I won't use it as an excuse. My goal is to walk the dog to the end of my street today, Thursday and Friday.…

I met my husband online years ago. We've been married 16 years. I was over 200lbs, but not as big as I am now. I had quite a few bad dates before I met him, but none were so awful I wouldn't recommend it. Some were really fun. It's hard to meet people once you get out of school, so I say go for it. I haven't dated in…

Yesterday my family was out running errands and went to Moe's for lunch and Dunkin Doughnuts for a snack. They offered to skip it, but I've been tracking food for a month and know I have to sustain this forever if I'm going to make a permanent change. And, I ate at both places and only went over my calories by 35, and that…

Here's my best effort!

Hi, I'm definitely looking for inspiration on this journey! Love all the quotes! I'm trying to post one, but it's weird on my phone.

Thanks so much everyone for sharing! I needed this so much. You all look so healthy and happy. I started tracking food and counting calories on January 4th at 414 lbs. and woke up this morning with a growling stomach and a bad attitude. This is the encouragement I needed. I have lost 13.5 lbs and hope to be under 400lbs…

I just joined yesterday and I'm reading this. I'll be 40 in March and I'm going to do it this time! I'm definetly looking for all the support and help I can get. I had to order a new scale because mine only went up to 250 and I'm now waaayyyy over that. I could just cry about it, but I have to start somewhere I guess.
