  • Such an inspiration! And I really like the first flowery blouse best! Its springy and I don't like to iron so permawrinkles are great:wink:
  • I've been frequenting the second hand stores. That way I can still dress nice without killing the bank account. Great job on the baggy clothes!
  • Sugar is such a hard addiction. It maybe time for you to re evaluate what your motivation is. Other than being healthy, other than fitting into a cute outfit. What are your deep down desires for your future? And how will your weight help or deter you from those desires? Write it down and look at it often. If you are not…
  • How much water are you drinking? Are you measuring your portions so your sure your taking in how many calories your think you are? I really think water is a big help. Your body will cooperate soon. Don't give up but really check these things. And here's to a healthy life for you and your family!
  • Awesome work! And no success is little! It's really a big deal! Congrats!
  • Too many nasty chemicals in it. I won't drink it unless I'm literally going to die of dehydration. I went cold turkey when I saw the scientific info on the artificial sweeter. With that being said. That is just me and you need to make your own choices for what is going to get you through your day. It is smart to try and…
  • It always amazes me how things like this happen. What a blessing! Keep up the work and thank you for sharing!
  • I have to self talk daily. In the mirror, out loud I remind myself that I am WORTH getting well. You are worth it! If nobody else will tell you that then tell yourself. Loudly! Sing it in the shower. Talk about it to yourself in the car. When your snuggled up under a warm blanket with a fantastic book and your habit is…
  • Thank goodness the top of my tummy goes first:wink: Which makes me sooooo happy. Because then I don't look like I have a second set of boobs:blushing:
  • I have a twenty ounce cup with a straw and just refill it 4 or five times a day. I try to drink 80 to 100 ounces a day. Yes I pee alot but my swelling is way way way down and I notice if I don't drink enough for a couple of days I start to swell up again. So drink up! And good luck! The straw was really my point! I find…
  • My husband works the grave yard shift. He eats a 200 to 300 cal breakfast when he gets home at about 8:30am. Then sleeps. He gets up at 7:30pm we have dinner that usually ranges from 400 to 600 cal. He packs two "snacks" like an ounce of cheese, some fruit, greek yougurt, and then a lunch which is sometimes what I had had…
  • Such great tips! You all are amazing! I weigh or measure everything. And we no longer watch tv while eating. Helps slow down. Good luck in the New Year!
  • Wowzers! You look amazing! Great job! I hope I can look that great someday!
  • I'm by no means a master:wink: But I do know that your weight can go up and down by more than 5 pounds a in a day. Water retention and such. That is why so many say to weigh yourself once a week at the same time of day. As long as your eating well and moving more you will lose weight. Be nice to yourself and just keep at…
  • You should work out to build muscle while losing weight. The pounds won't look like they are coming off as fast but the inches will and really isn't the goal to be healthy? You'll look better faster:wink: Have fun getting healthy!
  • Stunning change! Thank you for the inspiration! You are lovely! I love the jeans pic also. It really tells so much! Keep it up!
  • Sounds like something that would happen in my house:wink: Thanks for the great laugh!
  • Everyone is so individual. Mine are shrinking a bit. But my band size hasn't changed yet. I feel like they're deflating:laugh: So you will just have to wait and see and love yourself either way:heart:
  • What a great difference! You are lovely!
  • An addiction to sugar or any food for that matter is hard to deal with but can be dealt with. You do a great thing for yourself when you ask your family to finish or hide these items. You wouldn't offer an alcoholic a little sip of of alcohol. So if you know sugar is a trigger for wanting more sugar you can't have any…
  • If someone already said this I'm sorry for repeating. I did skim... I understand that you are not going to lose weight yet;) Still preggers. However now may be the perfect time to start logging everything you eat so that when your little pumpkin is freed you will already be in the habit of logging. Being a new mommy is so…
  • I have way more weight to get rid of than you but I asked my nutritionist about eating less than 1200 and she said it would slow the metabolism way down. So eat up with in reason and don't give up;) She also said that if you are going a long time without a scale move to concentrate on how your clothes are fitting or…
  • I did my sleep study in September of this year. I have obstructive sleep apnea. I was stopping breathing about 38 times per hr. and the longest that I didn't breath was about 1 min. Scary! So I have used my cpap machine every single night sense and feel sooooo much better! My hubby has one now too and we call it our scuba…
  • They are hungry. They are mad that they have to count points? Your eating real food and still losing weight? Well how can that be? Did they use all their points at breakfast? Congrats on your healthy choices and way to go on the gym asking for a testimonial! Thats a big deal!
  • Good work! The bottom set of pictures look like and older sister on the left and a younger happier sister on the right! Keep up the great work and thank you for the inspiration!
  • 1 cup of low fat cottage cheese with cinnamon in it and 1 packet of sweet stuff (whatever your choice is) And for fun a kiwi;) Now I should go to bed so breakfast time will hurry up and get here.
  • Wowzers! I really had to look about 3 times to be sure this was the same person! You look stunning. And that dress is wonderful on you! Lots of inspiration! Thank you for sharing!
  • Thank you Jason for posting this! Saved it for inspiration. Wow is right!
  • Wow! Seriously though if it wasn't for the tattoo on your arm I would swear these were pics of two different people....
  • Aw more inspiration! I can't wait to post my before and afters...I've really just started but it will be exciting. The biggest thing that I'm noticing in all of the afters is how much happier everyone looks and how much younger. Its stunning!
