  • I am 6' even. I weighed myself this morning and I am 161 lbs. and currently wear a size 10. At my biggest which was 235 lbs. I wore a size 18 which were tight. It is crazy how everyone is so different. People are shocked when I tell them my pant size because they expect me to be smaller. Of course I lost my boobs during my…

  • I went to 2 different birthday parties lastnight. One of a friend and one for our nephew. I had so many of my husband's friend complimenting me on my weight loss. One even said," Everyone is says you have to see Kelli you won't even recognize her anymore." He didn't know what they were talking about until he saw me…
  • I add the crystal light packets sometimes to my water and it's only like 10 calories extra. I count that water as my water for the day. If I have unsweetened tea I don't count that though. I also started using Ideal sweetener in my tea, it tastes like sugar and it has zero calories. Hope this helps...... Created by…
  • I lost 7 lbs the first week and 6 lbs the next. But I had really bad eating habits, I mean really bad. I cut way back on my eating. I was alloying myself around 1500 calories/day and set at 2 lbs lost per week. I changed to 1 1/2 lbs d/t as I lost weight my calories went down and I can't eat just 1200 per day. I feel like…
  • That is great that you want to lose weight and be healthier. I was the same way, I was the biggest I have ever been in June '11 and wasn't able to keep up with my son who was 1 1/2 at the time. I wanted and needed a change. I didn't want to do any weight lose pills or yoyo diets. I wanted to do it the right way. I just…
  • I can't believe how everyone's clothing size is so different yet our weights and height are around the same. SW: 235 lbs and wore a size 18 pants (kind of tight), 1x tops, and 40D bra CW: 180 lbs and wear size 12 pants, M-L tops, and 36C bra I hope to get down to 170 lbs. I can't remember the last time I weighed that much.…

My starting weight was at 235 lbs. and I am currently at 182 lbs. I would like to get to 170-175. I gained more weight after I had my son…
  • I live about 1 hour south of San Antonio. I have lost a total of 46 lbs. since July 2011. I too am not at my goal weight yet. Going through a struggle right now to get back on board. I am trying to convince others including my husband to get healthier. I have run 3- 5k's so far and would love to do more. Congrats on the…

  • I am happy to be at 189 but like others I need to tone up alot. I have so much flab on my stomach it makes me look fatter. Alot of people are telling me not to lose any more weight but I don't feel comfortable still and my BMI is still in overweight. I am at a standstill right now on weight loss and I haven't been able to…
  • I am 6' even and I would love to weigh 180. My starting weight was 235 and I am now down to 189. After looking at what everyone my height is wanting to weigh I guess I should look for at a lower weight. I was always told a good weight for my height was 180-185. But I see everyone is shooting for 160 range. Does everyone…
  • My husband and I are exactly the same height (6'0"). My dad and my brother are both 6'4". My mom and sister are shorter than me and most of the people in my husbands family are short. I have always had to date men taller than me. I always felt like such a beast around shorter guys. I was always the tallest in junior high…

  • So I bought a pair of Riders by Lee jeans the other day. I need at least 36" length. I have such a hard time finding jeans long enough. These jeans are perfect. I finally found jeans that fit me right and they are a reasonable price. I don't like spending alot of money on pants.

  • Oh ya!!! I know the feeling. Or people at work will stand by me and say "Dang you're tall." Been the same height the whole time we have worked together. Or you played basketball in school. NOPE!!! I was a country girl and don't really care for sports. One time my (uncles wife) called me an Amazon. Take in mind that she is…

  • I know how everyone fells. People have noticed that I have lost weight, I tell them I have lost 34 lbs. and I need to lose 20 more. They kind of freak out and tell me not to lose to much more cause I will look sick, I tell them do you realize I will still be around 180 lbs. and I still won't look that bad. I hate it when…

  • I wear a size 10-11, Ya, It sucks trying to find shoes and I am such a cheapo. My husband and I are exactly the same height. So don't wear heels that often. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Weight Loss Tools
  • My goal weight would be around 180. I haven't been that size in over 6 years. My starting weight was 235 and now I am 199.7. So excited I am under 200 lbs. Still have alot to go. I need to start toning but it is hard when you have no support at home. If I make it to 180 and felt like I needed to lose more than I would…

  • I weigh myself every Wednesday morning rigth after I pee. That is when I started my fitness pal so I have just kept it that way. I don't like to weigh myself everyday because if I don't see a change then I get frustrated. It is exciting to me to weight once a week cause then when I get on that scale and see a good change I…

I am taking baby steps also. I eventually want to do a 10k and move on up. I alternate walking and jogging to train myself. My cousing who has…
