Good idea!

You look absolutely amazing! By the way, how do you post pictures like that? i would love to be able to do that.

I especially love the "other colors than black" ! I think wearing other colors makes me feel younger. You've had some great fringe benefits.

I know exactly how you feel. It's really hard getting the brain in sync with the outside physical appearance. I still sometimes feel like the overweight teenager who had zero self confidence.

These are great! Thanks for sharing them!

I'm in. I love a challenge!

Very pleased with my first week results. I love knowing I have to post this each Sunday. I need this accountability! SW (9/18)- 165.8 Week 1 (9/25)- 162.8 Week 2 (10/2)- Week 3 (10/9)- Week 4 (10/16)- Week 5 (10/23)- Week 6 (10/30)- Week 7 (11/6)- Week 8 (11/13)- Week 9 (11/20)- Week 10 (11/27)- Week 11 (12/4)- Week 12…

For some reason I wasn't on there, but I went ahead and added myself to the bottom of the list. I think this is a really great idea!

So glad I joined this Challenge. I wrote about this in my blog today, but I might have to have surgery right before Christmas, so I am motivated more than ever to be successful. If I have the surgery, I won't be able to work out using my feet for at least 3 weeks. Can hardly wait till Sunday to post my first week results.

I have tried many, but for the most part I have followed Weight Watchers for 25 years. WW isn't really a diet, but a lifestyle, kinda like this website, which is what I like about it. You find healthy solutions that work for you and you stick to them. I also like the support and the accountability.

Hi Becki, I've been using the app on my phone for a couple months now and I really like it. I just starting using the online feature last night. I'm looking for new people to support and help support me. If you would like to do that, please send me a friend request. Good luck with your weight loss efforts.

Eating out can be very difficult when trying to lose weight. If I know I'm going to be eating out, I will trying to plan my day and make sure that I fill up lighter foods earlier in the day. I make a vegetable soup that is super low in calories, but tasty and filling. Makes for a great lunch with half a sandwich or even…

Very excited to be a part of this group. Look forward to support each other.
