I too would love to helpful suggestions for this I have to lose 100lbs and I am dropping it fast which i dont think is a good thing so anything would help. Thanks

Yep even when i weighed 108lbs I had DD cups! no offense but I never understood why women wanted those. I have horrible back pain. Have since I got my boobs!!!! But as long as it makes you happy that is all that matters. having big boobs means if you want a bathing suit you will always have to switch the tops out for a…

just started this but I think i am doing good so here are my suggestions to help you. ***note i started 10 days ago at 200lbs now i am 189.5lbs!!! 1. Excersise!! i know easier said than done but you really dont have to do anything too intense! Simply Walk! start by walking 10 minutes a day every single day at the pace you…

well, oddly enough I have more energy now than i did. Excersise is what give me energy. It may sound weird because I thought it was a first, but it is true. I cant excersise close to bedtime because I wont be able to go to sleep!!! Plus I am sure that me eating healthier has alot to do with it as well. Good luck!

OMG!!!!!! You are fabulous! I cant believe how amazing you look! You have been a huge inspiration for me on my weightloss journey. I am so proud of you. what strength and courage you have!!!!

this is great thanks!

Thanks everyone the photos are still embarressing but i am proud of my results so far! well before I really didnt do anything I just sat on the computer and I used to do alot of crafting. (beaded flower arrangements) but I developed carpel tunnel and couldnt bead so I got bored. knowing I already have health issues I…

Thanks everyone, this has made me feel so much better. I know it doesnt seem like much, but I really want this and I want to do it right. I have read on here about some people uping thier calories from time to time but I figured with me being so large that it wouldnt do me any good. I am only 5ft tall. This has definantly…

Thanks! for the first time I really pushed myself to run I think I got ahead of myself and it made me sick and yes I treated myself to some chocolate not much 5 blocks from a candy bar and some sherbet but still. I thought I wouldnt go over 70 calories. I was dissapointed after I found out my total. My goal was to reach…

well i dont actually cheat i just work out my meals so i have some extra calories for what i want. my current fav is 1 cup of raspberry sherbet with 5 blocks of hershey special dark chocolate. Check my food log yesterday for calorie count. another is chocolate covered strawberry smoothies they are great too and only 250…

well most probably wouldnt recommend it but i have been eating marie callender tv dinner they range from 300-450 calories. Thats why i have been eating as i have a problem with portion control. i think they are great. There is even a chicken and spinach lasagna that is to die for. It is my favorite and it serves 4. my…

hi there i just started several days ago and already lost 7 lbs. I suggest using your first day and eat whatever you normally do and record it. At the end of the day see how many calories you have consumed. DO NOT forget drinks or anything that goes into your mouth. I even record a mint if i have one! At the end of day one…

I live in florida and I definatly love me some soul food (fried chicken, mashed potatoes with gravy and lot of other goodies) I live in a small town and there are nothing but fast food resteraunts here. We only have 1 subway!!!! how sad is that? any way, I think what is hard trying to lose weight here is the heat. Its hard…

I have tried different ones slimquick, green tea pills, ally, etc. Some are great for energy but they give me horrible side affects. My body doesnt do well with any pills in general. As far as weight loss and curbing my appetite, no they didnt do either I actually gained weight when i tried the slim fast diet too. I…

okay here is my motivation for you! If you are thinking about making tommorrow your new fresh start then DONT! Make it now! because at the end of the day you will have good intentions to do better tomorrow but the truth is you will say the same thing tomorrow when you wake up. So right now get up go outside and take a…

wow that is amazing! I am very proud of you. Thank you for showing the photos. I have been concerned about what my tummy might look like if I lost all of my weight. I really wasnt looking forward to alot of extra skin. Yours seems to have just snapped in. I think I might try those work outs. Thanks for the inspiration! You…

That is wonderful! I have lost 7 lbs in the days I have been here and I have been really pleased. I really enjoy the fact that I can now walk down my drive and back without stopping for a rest (its a quarter mile drive) I got my hubby to join me and he is a member now too. Plus, I dont feel like crap anymore. I was always…

WOW first let me say congratulations! I was skinny most of my life but there was a time before now when I was large and dropped the weight and then I gained it back years later and then some after I had my son. Any how, when i was losing weight before I did the same thing. I just couldnt drop the weight. I realized that…

wow thanks everyone, I will check the links some of you left. I did eat back some of my calories today. I had a few candy orange slices to reward myself for the extensive workout I did today, but I was thinking if I did that would I still lose the most weight possible or would I just recieve the minimum. So thank you so…

I jogged quite a bit today for the first time in 6 years. I have a huge oval shaped road and I walk the curbs and run the straights. It was extremely hard but I puffed my way through it. Right now as I am writing my thighs feel like they are on fire and I ran a 6pm. I imagine I will be extremely sore tomorrow so I plan to…

Thanks I am still trying to figure out some things on this site but I would love to send you a friend request. I was big when I was 16 I reached 170lbs, but I worked hard and dropped the weight down to 110Lbs. It does require alot of dedication and it is really hard. I am dissappointed that I let all of my hard work go to…

I really understand how you feel. I really dont eat much at all during the day but at night I eat enough to feed 2 grown men. I know it isnt healthy, but I have some stomach issues and for some reason I eat better at night. Anyway, I have recently started working on portion control which is hard for me. When i cook dinner…
