Hubby and I visited the Grand Cayman's and Cozumel in March of this year. Loved the Grand Cayman's. So beautful. Although the water in Cozumel is beautiful, the beaches were surprisingly dirty. So much trash everywhere. However, the area is still beautiful. We took a jeep ride on our own and stopped at different locations…

Your story was so inspirational! Thank you for sharing. You look absolutely fabulous. I know your family is proud of you.

You look absolutely amazing! Congratulations on reaping the benefits of all your hard work.

Congratulations, Dawn! You did it and look at all the people here who are supporting you. You've done an amazing job the past two years turning your life around. I'm so very proud of you and proud to be one of your MFP friends. I love, love, love that next to the last pic of you in jeans and black boots. You look…

Scrolled through 15 pages and still no twin but found a match for everyone else in my family. March 25 here.

I'm in NC but this child would be in his mid to late 20s by now so possibly. If so, it IS a small world.

No, I live in NC.

Due to my age and several medical issues, it took me a year to lose 45 pounds then another year to lose 15 pounds. I'm thinking it will take another year to lose the last 15 pounds. I don't know how to post pics or I'd gladly do so.

MFP blocked the word out. It was sh*thead.

I've got one for you. I used to be a public school teacher and there was a child in the district named (Sha Theed) and spelled ****head. No kidding!

Congratulations! You sooo do NOT look your age; you look way younger. Also, you lost a whole person in record time. Amazing!!!!

I weigh 145 and need to get down to 130 as well. I'm cold all the time too. Hands and feet are the worst! When my feet are freezing, everything is freezing. Sometimes, the only way I can get warm is to take a warm bath. I have hypothyroidism so I'm thinking that has something to do with my issue.

Although I looked pretty bad, my moment came in Dec. 2010 when my blood pressure was at stroke level and my health was going down the tubes. Being overweight in your 20s can be a huge hindrance. Being overweight in your 40s can be a death sentence. I chose life! I decided I wanted to live to see all of my children grow up…

I haven't read through all the posts so I apologize if it's already been suggested. Granna Mama and then add your first name to it. If your name begins with a G, you could be GG for Grandma Glenda for example. Mimi (Meme)

There's no way I can do this. We're going to a pot-luck style dinner at my in-laws. I have no idea what others are bringing or how they prepared their dishes. What I chose to do is weigh myself this morning to see where I am and then work my tail off beginning Friday to make sure I am back there by next week.

From this mom to 4 sons and fellow Carolina girl, congratulations on your weight loss. You look fantastic!

I also made the decision to go wheat-free, gluten-free about two months ago and I feel so much better. I don't have an allergy or celiac or anything like that but decided to do it for overall better health. Since I began eating WF/GF, my blood pressure is lower and my sugars (I'm hypoglycemic) are great! However, since I…

I'm 46 and have lost just shy of 60 pounds. It has taken me two years having lost most of it in 2011 and 15 pounds in this past year. However, I've scratched and clawed to lose those 15 pounds. I also have 15 more to go before meeting goal weight. I have the mindset that if it takes me another year or two to lose it, oh…

Mine would be Oreo cookies. I absolutely cannot eat one or two. If I eat one, I'll eat the whole bag so I don't ever buy them. I just don't have the will power to have them in the house.

Definitely bumping this thread! Thanks for the recipes.

I agree that there is absolutely nothing nutritionally beneficial to sodas whether diet or regular so as one who was once severely addicted to soft drinks, I jokingly tell everyone that soft drinks were my legal drugs of choice and that I've been sober now for approximately 18 months. :laugh: Seriously, though I no longer…

Add to your diary and they'll be under recent. Then sort your diary by name and they'll be listed in alphabetical order so you can easily find them. The only thing you'll have to do is adjust the amount unless you happen to eat the same amount all the time which I do with some foods.

Hubby and I went on a cruise in March and LOVED it! I didn't overeat once. I ate what I wanted to but as soon as I was satisfied, I stopped. We used the stairs instead of the elevator, walked all over the ship, used the gym each day, and was very active at the ports. I also drank lots of water. The bad news is I gained 8…

From one stay-at-home mom to another, you look FANTASTIC and your kids are ADORABLE!!!!

I felt that one too. I was on the phone with the doctor's office and thought my kids were jumping off the beds upstairs. I was getting ready to lay into them when the doctor abruptly said she'd have to call me back and the kids came running downstairs scared to death. We couldn't figure out what it was. It wasn't until…
