What a great idea for a thread! I want to be able to run one mile!

Great job! You look fantastic!

T-shirt and undies.

I was 13 on the Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland. good times

I too have plantar faciatis and I know how painful it is! I get up every morning and stretch my feet, I do another stretch midday,and one at night. I also got heel inserts! I have been pain-free for about 6 months. As to the weight, go to the dr. and see if you have a thyroid issue. Get your results! My thyroid is within…

Oh! I have a lot of these! Once in college, we had to do presentations about the food of Mexico. The first presentation was 'pan dulce' a sweet bread. We were all given a little piece on a napkin. I don't like 'pan dulce' but to be polite, I was going to take the bite and the guy next to me says, "Oh, you shouldn't eat…

Love the topic title! You look fantastic!

I took a diet class a while back. We weighed ourselves once a week, but overall the instructor told us to look at our monthly numbers. I really only try to weigh myself every two weeks because I KNOW that there can be a fluctuation of 2-3 pounds in a day depending on whether or not I"m recovering, TOM, sodium intake,…

Wow! You look great! Congrats on your weight loss!

You look great!

You look amazing!

My hobby is hiking. I especially love hiking along the coast of California. My talent is remembering numbers. I have a weird ability to remember an address or a phone number for days or sometimes weeks even if I've only heard it once. It freaks my husband out.

South Orange County!

Please go to a Dr. and get some blood work done. About 3 years ago, I was coming home from work and falling asleep while SITTING on the couch! Really! I would just sort of fall over! I chalked it up to the extra hours I was working. I was also losing hair, had brittle nails, and was very slow and sluggish overall. My Dr.…

Just bought a shakeweight--fingers crossed :wink:

Ice cream!!!

I sent a friend request! I have to eat my exercise calories! Otherwise I'm starving and grumpy!

I don't log most my fruits and vegetables. I also don't log my daily walks--I walk 1 mile at lunch with my work friends, usually 1-2 after work before I pick up my husband and anytime I talk on the phone, I walk around my block which is 1/2 a mile-- I log ANY treat food. (for example, I would log 1 jellybean or mnm) and I…

You look great!

You look great! Keep going! I can't wait to see Hawaii pics!

I'm afraid I'll get attention. I'm super friendly and outgoing, but I feel so uncomfortable when people compliment me--especially men. I'm kinda awkward that way. :( Last time I lost weight I got hit on a few times and even though twice it was by men who looked vaguely like Santa (smily, chunky, white hair) I felt so…

Love it!

You look great! wtg!

well, only one choice for Polly...it's Ann. :)

There is nothing aggressive, passive or otherwise, about doing nothing. Passive aggressive would be to give her sister a 1000 calorie burrito but tell her it is a 300 calorie burrito. Acknowledging something and letting it go can be a really valuable skill. It's important to know how to pick your battles.

Was this an older sister? I have a couple of those and they are always pulling this kind of crap on me. And then, when I say something they respond with, "omg you're so sensitive" Really. I think it was super insensitive of your sister. Even if your way is the dumbest way in the world ( and I don't think it is), it's not…

Great job! You look amazing!

You look amazing! Very inspiring! I haven't been at a healthy weight range since my 20s. Your pics made me think maybe it's possible. :)

wtg! You look great!
