@sherr1335 - yes - 148 is way better than over 200! Hang in there - 2 months ago I was in the low 200's and now I've been under 100 all of September! @jburke141 - nice - 86 is really good! @Lizzym911 - 94 is really good! It sucks to be woken up with such a low though. I hope you feel better now. The effect of a Blood Sugar…

Wow! This is truly inspirational! Thanks for sharing your story with us. It means the world and is a reminder that anything can be accomplished. I love the success stories! I hope to be one myself someday!

Still putting up great numbers!

90 today.

I both love and dread weekends. I love them for all the free time and not having to be at work. I hate them as the groups I follow do kind of shut down. Glad you had a great weekend and stuck to your plan. I noticed you are getting in plenty of exercise too! You are doing great! Keep it up and maybe next weekend we can all…

I set my current goal at 225 (which is right in the middle of the overweight category for my height). I guess we'll see WHEN we get there (I almost typed IF - trying to correct that attitude).

I'm kind of in the same boat Carly. I can't see myself weighing in at even the high side of my ideal weight according to the BMI chart. I just don't want to be a super skinny bean pole. That all being said: I think I am technically Severely Obese as of my last weigh in (317 lbs. which puts my BMI right at 40) To no longer…

Wow! Amazing transformation! Thanks for inspiring us to keep working on this journey. Sometimes it feels like I have a long ways to go, but reading the success stories always helps to keep me motivated! Would you be willing to share a tip or two?

I was digging to find a chart and found this. BMI Classifications: Underweight <19 Ideal BMI 19-25 Overweight 25-30 Obese >30 Severely Obese >35 Morbidly Obese >40 Super Obese >50

92 again today (that is 3 days straight). It make me wonder if my meter is broken!

Nice! Today I'm at 92 (same as yesterday). Maybe I'll get a 3 day streak myself!

For me I am taking Metformin I000mg 2X daily and Glyburide 1.25mg 2X daily (was on 2.5mg 2X a day till a couple weeks ago). I was on these doses before I took diet and exercise seriously and was seeing readings around 170-220. When I started taking diet and exercise seriously (and I'm talking mostly walking more every day)…

Seriously awesome transformation! I don't know where I'd be without Success Stories. I plan to remember that when I get to my goal someday. I will not forget the inspiration of others and will make it my continued goal in life to help others reach their goals too! Thanks for sharing!

I too am a coffee addict! I must try this one out! Heading to Starbucks over lunch! Oh and my NSV - yesterday I wore a Peyton Manning Jersey to work. It was a 4X and was HUGE on me. Today I'm wearing another football jersey to work and it is a 2X and while not huge on me, it still fits with a little room for breathing!

75 today!

And yeah, on the HP thing - I kinda take that part with a grain of salt. I was raised Baptist, but in my adult years I find I'm questioning religion. Especially the things done by overly religious people in the name of religion. But I really do feel a lot of support and understanding for the BED issues so I just kinda zip…

Of course I already have the Audio Book making it's way to my library! I don't want to go into a lengthy amount of detail, but recently my Father-In-Law and Mother-In-Law were staying with us while in between homes. They decided to invite my Sister-In-Law over for the weekend (without asking my wife and I) and then…

OMG!!! I need to read both of these things! Dealing with this very thing right now! Carly - you always have some much to offer - thanks for not sitting on the great ideas, books, words or wisdom, recipes, etc.!!!

Lower than yesterday! Nice!

Welcome Vicki! I enjoyed reading your blog and love the pictures too. I've only been in this group a few weeks but there are some great people here. I think I have around 100 pounds to lose so that'll take a while! I've recently recognized that I am a binge eater so I am working through that. I'm also a Type 2 diabetic and…

94 today.

Thanks for sharing that video! Some great info!

It took me some time to get used to the idea of wearing padded bike shorts in public. I still get a little self conscious but I haven't had any issues with discomfort since I gave in and started wearing them. I tried to wear them under gym shorts, but that still causes rubbing (pain). I even scaled back my padded seat to…

^^^^^^^ This! I love this!

If I could have a carb rich mexican dinner and get a 107 the next morning, that would not upset me in the least!

84 today. Geez - might be able to say goodbye to the Glyburide soon!

I know! Thankfully this particular tree is about 10 feet off the path, but I'll be watching closer from now on!
