good for you! what an inspiration! you do deserve to be treated like the beautiful person you are.

Remember that you and only you are in control. Remember than really, nothing tastes as good as thin feels. Remember who you are, who you want to be, and everything you want to achieve. You are going to have set backs. You are going to have days where you wonder, "what's the point, im not losing any weight". hang in there.…

congrats! what a major accomplishment!

nicely done! congratulations!

Thanks for sharing this! You are such an inspiration. I was a size 22 at age 12 and have got down to a size 14! Your inspiration made me remeber that I can get into those size 8 jeans! Thanks you sooo much! You don't know how much I needed this today!

Nikki:4 Snacks:0 The next week and half is where I usually fall off the bandwagon, but I am not going to let that happen this time! I am ready for a permanent change! I deserve it! I owe it to myself to be the best that I can be! Hope everyone is doing well!

I do the South Beach Diet, b/c it allows you unlimited vegetables and you add in good carbs slowly. I like it b/c you aren't really doing low carb (I typically eat between 60-90 carbs on the diet plan, but have room for 50 more w/ excercise) but a low starch diet as you eliminate most foods high on the glycemic index, and…

Just a quick updateI just bought two pairs of size eight jeans for inspiration. Usually, I am afriad to buy them b/c I think "what if I fail", "this could be a waste of money", etc. but this time, I am determined. I hope to fit into them by my birthday (september 24th), which gives me a little under four moths to go froma…

Hey girl! We pretty much have the exact same story, though I am a pescatarian! It is totally frustrating. I too would like to be at 17O by September, and 160 by my birthday, September 24th. Maybe we could swap some good vegetarian recipes some time!

Thanks dewdrop & rosemary10 your support means so much! I hope everyone is doing well! There have been a lot of challenges that have come up in the past couple days (graduation parties, going out to eat, bbqs, etc) but I was able to conquer them all...largely due to you alls support! Once I stopped snacking, and allowed…

good for you! you go girl!

Thanks for the support everyone! Nadine...I am right there with ya! You go girl! You are really killing it this week! I think I am killing this week too! I went spinning for two hours this morning and managed to sneak in some core excercises. I finally figured oiut that I needed to eat more calories and less carbs, so now…

Thanks for your support! I like the scoring you guys are doing...so I think I will start today! Nikki:1 Snacks:0 I dont know if this would help anyone out there, but I found that if I eat my "dessert" (60 callorie sugar free jello) in my bedroom or not in the kitchen, I am lest tempted to go for more. I just just log onto…

You must have read my mind! I would love for this group to roll over! Everyone is so supportive! Good for you for getting right back on track JoJo...that is what really counts! You Go Girl!

I totally feel your pain! I have had three ACL reconstruction surgeries. After my first one, I was okay to start running again. I made sure I put some Dr. School's in my shoes for extra padding! I also made sure that I learned the proper technique for running. I realized that I was putting a lot of stress on my knees b/c I…

i wi keep you in my prayers! i hope you have a quick and painless recovery!

Hi! I just wound this group, and was wondering if I could join you all? This would be my second round of P90X. I did well the first two rounds the first time around, but was travelling so much during the third month that I really could not do anything more than maintain my weight. I do P90X doubles, but do spin class…

It has been a rough week! I didn;t lose anything on weigh-in on Tuesday. I actually gained a pound despite sticking strictly to my diet and excercising every day...then I realized that I had such a large calorie deficit that my body was in starvation mode. I have since started to eat some of my excercies calories, which I…

You could not have said it better! I eat extremely healthfully, so much so that my friends tease me lovingly...but it is sooo hard for me to lose weight b/c I snack. You basically captured my weakness in a nutshell! I am a sucker for peanutbutter and crackers, and those stupid vitamuffins are sooo good, especially the…

Thanks for your support! It has been rough for me the last couple of day but I have been through this before. And though its really stinks when food gets the better of you, I am proud of all of us for hanging in there! The one triumph of the week was that I didn't just give in. Usually, if I slip up I have them mentality…

Peanutbutter is the worst for me! I just love it! I like the Jiff stuff but it is the allnautral.organic peanut butter that I just love. It is a miracle if I can stop myself, but lately I have been getting better. Carbs in general make me want to over eat.

Girl! You are simply an inspiration! You loook soooooooooo good!

Hi! I have some great recipes I could give you, but it would be easier for me to send them to you in a message, so if it is okay, I will friend request you? I was a vegetarian for over a decade. I was also severely overweight for over a decade. Though I am still working to lose these last 30 pounds, I have learned a couple…

You go girl! I know you can do it! I am right there with ya sister! I will lose these last thirty pounds, and they will be gone forever. Best of luck!

I am soo excited! I am starting officially on Monday too, once I finsh the book. Right now I am just easing into it, and trying to go by the diet as much as possible! Hopefully, we can get some other SB dieters to join, but I am still so happy to have found one person who is in exactly the same boat that I am! Thank YOU so…

Yes! I was having this same problem up until yesterday, a weigh in day. I was excercising 2-3 hours a day and eating roughly 1300-1500 calories. I would step on the scale expecting to see some major pounds lost, but would end up gaining a pound. It is super frustrating b/c you are working so hard, and you are just kinda…

SO true! I have been working to find the right balance for the past 6 months1 I am experimenting with some new things and hopefully I will be able to do it this go around! Good luck to you!
