We usually end up using all the clean laundry straight out of the laundry basket (or dryer) because I keep putting off folding and storing it.

Awesome job!!! Thanks for sharing the pics! They are great motivation!!!

Awesome and impressive!! Thanks for sharing!

The "has logged in for 5 days in a row" message after you were close to 100 :o/

Interval training! You tone while hitting the cardio for weight loss. It worked wonders for me. Good luck!!

Wow! I could go for a piece or two of that cinnamon cake right now... with a warm cup of coffee... YUM!! Don't worry, you don't have to get off the wagon or feel you fell off for one night of sugar binging. This is a lifestyle change and you can't live a life of no sweets ever or 1200 calories/day every single day forever.…

You look fantastic!! Awesome transformation! Thanks for sharing your story. It never gets old to find motivation in people who have done great even if not in the time frame they had pictured. It takes away the bad feeling we get when it happens to us. I like to think that as long as I'm losing I don't want to care how long…

Congratulations!!! You've done marvelous!! Stories like yours is what keeps people like me going. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for your words of encouragement about not letting the frustration of derailing for a few days dictate the rest of your life. You are an amazing inspiration!! I wish you a long, healthy and happy life!!

My daily glass of wine with dinner and fried plaintains (tostones) once or twice a week.

I think you are being very respectful. I share your preocupation about making my husband uncomfortable about contacting other men online. It also depends on the age for me... if they are men that remind me of my father then I don't feel weird. Is that weird? But if someone has done an impressive job I just cheer for their…

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.!!!!!

You are supposed to adjust your fitness goals as you lose. I started at over 1600 calories/day and after 20 something lbs lost I'm down to little over 1500 calories. MFP does not do it automatically, you have to go to your profile and adjust it yourself.

Keep it up!! Your motivation is encouraging!!

Simply AMAZING!! Congratulations on your great success!! I wish you many years of health and happiness in your new body!! You are a fantastic inspiration!!

Time... eventually you won't hate it. I felt the same way a year ago ad now, I don't love it but I get very cranky when I don't work out... you will become addicted to the endorphin trip you get after working out. Time and patience will get you there. Good luck!

Do jumping jacks and run in place with your kids. Mine love to jump with me. Check out online some exercises you can do at home with no fancy equipment... just your body! Good luck! And remember, 80% diet 20% exercise... you are what you eat!! You can totally do this without hitting the gym!

I have the FIRM TransFIRMer series (step workouts) and they have been very effective. I really like that they combine cardio and strength training in 2 of 3 workouts and the routines are not too complicated to follow. It has done wonders for my legs and thighs! I also have 1 or 2 Firm express videos but I find them too…

You carried the weight very well 'cause you didn't look fat at 170-190, but you look AMAZING now!! YAY for rib bones and arm muscles!! You ARE an inspiration... I hope I can show my ribcage so beautifully someday.

Only if you watch out for the portion size. It leaves me very hungry so I always go for something else. If 1 serving size works for you, go for it! Good luck on the weight loss journey!!
