I want in!! :) I just sent a request to join... I need some motivation!! My current weight as of 3/21/16 was 249 GW 194

Great job!!! Keep up the hard work!

Your journey is amazing and the way you describe it is even better. It bring hope and motivation to me and I can't thank you enough for that. I will continue to come back and read this post while I climb my mountain to remind me how beautiful that view at the top is!!! AMAZING!!!

Entertaining video, and a great brief way of helping newbies! Thanks!!!

This looks yummy! Thank you for sharing!

Congratulations - you have come so far and you should be proud of yourself. 70lbs is an amazing accomplishment! I have had the same lifestyle (not taking pictures, going out) because I was ashamed of my weight before - I know how that feels. You look great!!

Thank you for the motivation and the reality check!! Some days are better than others for me so that is all I can do is take it one day at a time.

Canned tuna? I forgot to mention I eat that all the time! Fish cakes sounds like a good idea - should there be a particular fish I use?

YAY!!! :)

Great Job!!! 13 lbs, that is amazing!!! I am not sure if there is another one -- I was just asking. Has anyone found one?

I want in!!! :)

Sounds good - I am in! I am few days late so I'll go through Sunday!

Great info to get started... thanks!

another great post!

Great job!!!! What a difference in numbers! :) Keep up the hard work!

I had a bad week - but not back to my starting weight. My choices weren't the greatest and I need to change up exercises a little. I don't know why but yesterday and today I am really tired. I didn't hear from the person above or below me regarding my diary. I slacked with a soda a couple days this week - damn my husband…

Have fun!!!! I believe now you are allowed to bring in some food (not a cooler type deal) but you can throw some protein bars, or little sandwiches in a bag if need be. Plus like everyone said - all the exercise nd sweat from the heat. It is ridiculously hot here!!! Have fun!!

I love my HRM - I have the Polar FT7. I bought it off amazon for about $70 and it is totally worth it in my opinion. I use it everytime I exercise for a more accurate count of calories burned. My reasons for wanting one was the same as yours. If you are going to use it, I highly recommend you get it.

Congrats!!!! You look amazing and so happy!!!! Your hard work has paid off!!!!

Hahaha... my husband says the samething!!! :)

Happy Monday - a new day!!! :) I haven't heard from the person below me (hasn't weighed in the past 2 weeks) - and the person above me hasn't made their diary public. They didn't weigh in for 6/7 yet either. I will send her a PM. My diary is open, if anyone wants to take a look. Please don't judge me for this past weekend…

Congrats on the new baby!!! I had a similar situation with my c-section with stitches coming loose, I can still feel the difference in the scar. I would focus more on nutritition at this point because you are only 3 weeks post baby. If you can, take your little one for walks but don't over do it or push yourself. Are you…

Great job!!!!! Thank you for sharing your tips!!! You look amazing, keep up the hard work!!!

Bahamas! Hoping for my brother,sister and their families to go as well as for my husband's family to spend time with our son. It will be a nice BIG family vacation! My husband is from the Bahamas so it's the best of both worlds. I can't wait for my son to experience life in the Bahamas. Knowing we have a vacation picked…

@adchill -- sweets are my problem also. I had no sense of portion control when it came to cookies/chocolate/cake etc. BUT... I have learned if you allow yourself a little sweet something each day, it won't kill you. I have something sweet each day. Today I will have M&Ms - half the bag at one point, the other half at…

Great Job!!!!!! What a difference in comparison pics. Congrats on kicking the smoking habit!!!! Keep up the good work!

I was late to start this so my starting weight was on Wednesday 5/29 -- I weighed myself today not thinking Friday is weigh in days so I will do it again tomorrow. I am excited for this challenge. I have 25lbs left of baby weight - plue extra because I was overweight before I got prego --- this helps keep me motivated and…

I have a lot of weight to lose to even bare my stomach. I gained a lot of weight while I was pregnant and I have the stretch marks to show for it. I am determined to lose this weight, and I can imagine what my stomach will look like otherwise - but like people have said, we are tigers that have earned their stripes. None…

I signed up late (today) but I am really excited about this. Thank you for sharing!!!

I was just able to add myself in --- I am excited for this!!! Good Luck!
