1. Lose 100lbs which will put me at 145, a number both my doctor and I have agreed on :smile: 2. Scale baby scale.. I want to look down and see those numbers and not my tummy! :grumble: 3. I have two planned celebrations. a. I plan on throwing one massive big party in my back yard, the drinks will be flowing, and you are…

woot woot - way to go!

I'm with you. I only chart down - everybody's different but I would get discouraged. By leaving it where it was I know I have to work twice as hard to make it move.

Always cracks me up - don't they think that if there really was an quick / easy way to do this we would be screaming it from the roof tops. Heck we would be bottling it and selling it ! :noway:

:happy: :happy: :happy: Welcome to the best group of supportive people on the web- MFP is a great place and so easy to use!

:blushing: Thanks to everyone for the compliments and encouragment. I was so tickled when I tried the dress on at the store. Was a bit worried that it showed a little to much of the 'girls' :noway: but my friend said "lady its time to flaunt it all, you worked hard for this!" So I said what the hell and went for it :laugh:…

One final comment from me - well may be :glasses: Anyway all I know is that with 60lbs gone people around me have noticed and so I am often asked "what are you doing" When I start to explain to them that I have changed everything about my life, what I eat, when I eat, plus exercise, every time their eyes just glaze over…

finally got it to work! You look great!

hope you dont mind my fixing it for you so the pictures show

:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Good for you!

I land squarley on the same side of this debat as you. For me a diet is something you start and stop. It's a time when you don't let yourself have certain foods. I eat what I want but understand what it means when I eat it, I make CHOICES about food now. I drive by the fast food places more often then not but if I stop…

I seond the idea of the tape measure as well!

Welcome welcome welcome - your in the right place!

WAY TO GO on the 40 down:drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

I started out on this journey Jan 6 2008. When I first started I used the biggest loser site. It works on the same principles HOWEVER they charge you a monthly membership fee and it was in NO WAY as user friendly as this site and the people here are tons more supportive. But I can tell you for me at least, regardless of…

thanks everyone :smooched:

The day after Thanksgiving can you believe it! :tongue: I just had to post just to see my ticker read 60lbs :glasses: I have been sitting at 59 for two weeks I figured this would NOT be the week I would see it move down. Right here right now I am giving a big shout out to my Golds Gym for being open on Turkey day and to my…

Happy Thanks Giving Everyone! I love my gym, they opened at 6a this morning! :happy: I got there by 6:30a. Did a 30 min slow but steady walk on the tread mill, went to the yoga room at 7a and streched andchilled for 1/2 hour then headed into to cycle class room were I road easy till the actual class started at 8a.…

I started at 245 and a size 22/24 probably 20 lbs in I started to really notice a difference. I have to say though I wore clothes I had 'ungrown' way past when I probably should have - just hated to spend money on clothes I intended to 'ungrow' as well. HOWEVER once I did go out and try some new clothes on WHAT A BOOST I…

:blushing: :blushing: Oh man I can not tell you how cool it is to hear that. Thank you thank you thank you! :smooched: :smooched: :smooched:

Im in (better late then never right?)- I will settle for 1lb I just want to see my ticker say 60! sooooo bad. But I have been sick all this week (achoo bad cold) so no gym for me - hopefully by tomorrow I can get back to the gym and this little challenge will get me moving again:grumble:

:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: way to go!

Welcome:smile:

Way to go everyone!:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
