I know people are going to freak, but I only eat packaged food. I don't cook, nope not even a little. I work like crazy and hate anything domestic! I eat fiber one bars, 4 oz packs of cottage cheese (2%) little bags of carrots, buy mini hummus containers, oikos yogurt, skim cheese sticks, a piece of fruit usually, apple…

You not only look super frigging amazingly better, you are a hysterical hoot! I am so adding you!!

I've been at it almost 11 months and am still 25ish lbs away from my goal (Started at 262, at 177 now) I am trying to tone as I go, but know I have AT LEAST another 6 months, but thqat is BS, I have the rest of my life to work on this. Everyone is different, and it takes along time, but it CAN be done!

Thanks everybody for the cheers and support! This has been more than a weight loss journey its about reinventing myself... If anyone is interested, I've started blogging about recreating my life from scratch in a more fearless and awesomesauce way. if your interested, though I will warn you it's wildly inappropriate and…

And the dress everyone loves came from goodwill! $6.99 people! 6 dollars and 99 freakin cents! Woop! Woop!

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate all the complimetns and cheers. And yes, the best thing I have gained out of this is not the new dress size or number on the scale it's how freakin' happy I am to get up every morning and live my life! Really I gootaa say though a big part I left out is MFP, I ahve been on here since…

When I started at 262, I walked and did wii just dance for 30-45 minutes. The cardio helped me get to thelow 200's and the point where I could take up running and yoga :-)

I log zumba as aerobics since it's not listed, or get an HRM. As for posting pictures use photobucket, there are detaield directions in the success story forum! Feel free to add me if you want :-)

I play loud music and dance like a mad woman while I clean! It ups the burn

You are awesome man! Great outlook and attitude! Definitely inspiring!

Low fat cottage cheese or fiber one 90 calories bar. I've busted through a few plateaus over the last nine months, mostly by completely changing things up adding new exercise or just significantly upping or lowering my calories. Add me if you want, my diary is open to friends!

You look freakin' Awesomesauce! Running is the best thing for thighs, well at least it is shrinking the hell out of mine!

pineapple, banana, ice, fat free milk, green food coloring! I love spinach but I am not drinking it! ACK!

You are a ROCKSTAR!!

I love this thread! Running totally helped pull me out of a 2 year funk! Best therapy EVER!

I weigh everyday, it works for me. If it's down I'm excited and keeps me on track, if I'm up I try not to get frustrated and use the motivation to get my butt in gear! I weigh in officialy once a week, but track every day on weighttracker.com. That site also lets me track my food, exercise and some other variables like…

I think you need to put them in photobucket then put the link there with [IMG]before and after... I think there is a posting in success stories that explains how :)AND you are a rockstar! lol![/img]

I have lost about 30 lbs using c25k! Of course I also follow a strict healthy diet, I started at 262 lbs, and when I got to 225 I started the program and according to the scale this morning I am at 191.6. You have to keep eating right, but in combination with that the running has got me dropping weight like crazy! And the…

Feel free to add me! I'm in my 30's and can now oficially say I am a runner, since I now run 2-3 miles at least 3 times a week. So I guess that makes me active. I also put on alot of weight after ending a long term relationship and am now working towards a healthy lifestyle.

Water! I was stuck there for a couple weeks to then started chugging 3-4 liters aday and it kicked my loss into gear! And I'm glad you like my Pirate scale... Sometimes It makes me laugh, and when I get a crappy number I look at it and Yel "AAARRRRRR!"

you think, hey my thighs feel weird, and your realize it's becuase you are feeling muscle and not FAT!

Girl you are gorgeous! Before and After! Congrats on your healthier lifestyle!

AMAZING! Thank you for sharing, my goal weight would be many peoples starting point, it's so inspiring to see people who are on the same journey and succeeding!

I'm on week 7 too! 26 minute run today and I am looking forward to it. I should be able to run 2 miles straight. Fingers crossed, knock on wood! I just signed up for my first 5K on April 1st! Woo-Hoo! (Yes, I chose april fools day on purpose! I think it's fitting!)

That is AMAZING news! Diabetes runs in my family and took my grandmother from us at a young age. When I started I was considered pre-diabetic and am now free and clear. It was that more than anything that motivated me! Good for you!! (and the loose clothes is pretty cool too!

I agree with cgrout, there is really not much to be done until you decide it's time. But if you hate the food so much, if that's the biggest problem then maybe buy a healthy cook boock? Or try out some new recipes. Check out skinnytaste.com, I've gotten some tasty stuff from there.

WOW! My goal weight is 150, and I wasn't sure if I would be happy at that, but if that is what 150 looks like I can't wait! Good for you, you should be so proud!

I do the same thing! Eat after I work out. I would love to hear peoples thoughts on this :)

Hi! I haven't had any feet issues but ahd a really bad back injury a couple years ago, I doslocated my spine from my pelvic bone! It ahs hurt and bothered me since then... UNTIL I started running and doing yoga and losing weight. I think all the work is strngthening my muscles to help suooprt the injury! I know it's not…

I have the ease into 5K, basically the same and am on week 6 day 2. I LOVE it. Running is my new favorite thing. Last week, it told me to start running and then I accidently turned it off and before I new it I had a run a Mile! I could barely get a flight of stairs without being winded 6 months ago. Just completing every…
