Ok I have gone down, I am now in a very comfortable 36C and I LOVE IT. I no longer have to buy over the shoulder bolder holders, bra's that look like they were made to hold up mount rush moore! 36C's come in some awesome styles and colors and are soo much sexier. And as you can see :noway: in the dress I am wearing in my…

Ok Im just going say it and then live with it. I have 'gone off the ranch this week!' Between work (had a group of FORTY big wigs come in for a tour of the plant), the FOUR social events (One last Sat, one of which I am in charge of planning and hosting TONIGHT, (office holiday party out in town), one tomorrow night…

Started at 245 Currently 180 Goal 145 Always worn out no energy and frankly did not at all like myself for what I had let my self become Now I smile when I go into the dressing room with an arm full of size 12's! And I am not even done yet!

Hi everyone. Been a busy weekend and an today was very busy at work too so just have not had time to check in and get my mfp fix. Glad to see everyone is doing well. We have a Thanksgiving tradition. Before we eat we each take a candle. The first person states what they are thankful for lights thier candle and then lights…

Morning all, I had a REAL good time last night out with the DH. He loved the new dress :blushing: I did not keep in my calories but I normally give myself Friday's off and just plan for it, so I try not to beat myself up. We ended up going to a real nice night spot after the party with another couple and the good times…

Good Morning Everyone. Guess I am the early riser this morning so I will get the party started. I have to be into work by 6am this morning :grumble: so up real early for me. Woke up with a sore thought and am pretty sure my cold from a week ago is now trying to make a come back :sick: I am determined not to let it as I…

Hi everyone, BUSY day at work so didnt get to check in, but I posted this under success stories before I realized the thread for the Perfect 10 Buddy Club had become offical. I am so excited to be part of the group - anyway here was my earlier post to different thread... Just wanted to share my great day :laugh: For those…

Today I officially went from obese to over weight as far as my bmi goes --- wooot wooot . To celebrate I went out and bout myself a hot new little black dress for a holiday reception dh and I are going to tomorrow night... and just to add icing on the cake the dress had been marked down three times AND the lady at the…

Good Morning All, So I vote for the Buddy Club - I think that really says it all. Let's settle on a name today ok. My day started out very early 3:35a - icky! But had to get to work extra early this morning so oh well. I hit 180.8lb this morning which made me very happy even at 4 in the morning :) I know 180.8 is really…

Here is the best and fullest explanation ever for 'EAT YOUR EXERCISE calories' http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/10589-for-those-confused-or-questioning-eating-your-exercise-calo This site differs in others in that it does not assume your going to work out as much as you say you are going to - SO the calorie…

Way to go! I loved this year being able to shop by style rather then first looking for my size and then seeing if there is anything in that size that actually does not look like an old lady on a cruise ship dress! :noway:

Nothing wrong with having a one night fling as long as you don't make it a habbit. :wink:

I so get this. I was just saying to my dh the other day that I can't stop reaching up and feeling my sholders because I will darned if there arn't BONES THERE and it just feels so odd as I had completly forgotten THAT! :laugh:

This summer I went through some real issues with my eldest daughter - 19 - she ended up moving out and is still out. :brokenheart: We are on fairly good terms now but I know in years past I would have delt with the stress by finding LOTS of food! This summer when she moved out and I had no idea where she was for a couple…

Count me in then - I just sent you a friend request

Welcome, I am much further on my journey than you, BUT I sarted in the same place. 100lbs to lose and all the same 'issues' I intend to stay on MFP even after I meet my goal, which I am hoping will happen sometime this summer. Am sure your looking for some buddies that are just starting out but if you would like someone…

I know everyone says only weigh in once a week but I get on that scale every morning. I know I know - not what is recommended, daily fluctuations, TOM and all that jazz I get, but for me this works. The fluctuations keep me motivated. For instance - If I weigh myself this morning and find I am up in weight :angry: , It…

go to bed... i mean it - go to bed - be done for the night and walk away from the food

There it is in a nut shell for me - 'diets are part of the problem' Yep Yep :frown: :ohwell:

:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Way to go

Welocome - Best tip I can give you is follow the suggestions. Track your food AND your excercise and and YES eat your excercise calories - no one believes it at first but look at me - I'm living proof and so are tons of others on here that it works!:noway: :laugh:

:flowerforyou: Welcome

Certainly encourages me to work out - I do NOT want to try and live on 1200 cal a day, god bless the gym :laugh:

How well are you tracking your calories - especially on those busy weekends. I'm asking this for both reasons - Are you nibbling and thus going over, OR are you not getting in your calories on the weekends becuause you are out and about so much? Also are you taking a bottle of water with you and drinking through out the…

Not me - I throw a baseball cap over the bed head, throw on the gym clothes grab some breakfast and then off I go - The shower can wait until I get back as I'm going to need one then anyway.
