congratulations you look wonderful.

I like this, I also want to Thank everyone that has been successful and post for us to see. I am at a plateau right now but with seeing all these success stories I am determined I can reach my goal too. Happy Posting :)

Welcome, this site has helped me so much and hope it will help you. We CAN do this!

Thanks for sharing, I really really needed to hear this. (made copy to put up at my desk as a reminder) I think I have come to plateau and it's hard! but I will not quit too close. :)

LOL, I go to the bathroom REAL often too!

You are doing great, congratulations!

thanks for posting this, I really needed to read this! I think it will help me.

yummy, I just had one last weekend (tomato fresh out of garden) and it was delish!!!! Thanks for reminding me think I will have one tomorrow for lunch.

Congratulations! You look absolutely awesome. I did basically the same thing quit smoking and gained even more weight (already overweight). I haven't reached my goal yet about 20 lbs away but glad we can look sexy at our age (LOL). But as someone said previously you look younger! You go lady!!!! My incentive to lose those…

thanks for the challenge (I need to be challenged!) 150 woohoo!!!

love all these weird little habits that help, I am definitely going to start to do some of them. Thanks for doing this!!!

thanks for sharing!

Agree with this, I had and still have the exact problem you are talking about but got 2 pair of jeans on clearance at Walmart that are the stretchy fabric and they fit well don't sag in the back of legs or butt. I have really been getting compliments on them and they feel so much better and look better. I have been doing…

I quit cold turkey in Feb 2011 because I had acute bronchitis didn't want it to turn into chronic bronchitis. I haven't had any cravings for it until lately. I am so glad I quit and don't plan on starting back. Good luck, it's not easy but so worth it!

I'm actually glad you posted this and reading the comments because it is going to help me not give up because I am finally about 30 lbs from my goal and am losing weight slower now and it is discouraging but after reading all these comments it has help me to realize it will probably take longer these last 30 lbs and to NOT…

I have a confession too, last week while I was on vacation I ate some Sweet Sixteen donuts, both chocolate and powdered and some chips. I was so afraid of how much weight I would gain and guess what I think it boosted my metabolism or something because I lost 3 lbs this week where I have been at a stand still for a few…

I seriously started using MFP in January this year 2012. My starting weight was 220, I am now as of today down to 156 lbs. I would have never believed I would be at this weight back then. I remember when I started exercising couldn't do a lot to begin with but gradually I was able to do more and more. And the weight began…

don't eat alot of fast food anymore and don't watch much TV (I'm glad I don't watch alot of TV anymore because never realized all those food commercials make you hungry and I don't snack hardly at all since I don't sit and watch TV and see all those commercials with food.)

Yay, I remember (not long ago) when I am no longer obese on the chart. GREAT feeling. I hate that word "obese". Congrats! Looking forward to being in the healthy column. :)

you can go to waterpark with grandkids and not be too embarrassed in bathing suit and actually have energy to ride the rides with them. Priceless!!!!

I am most someone from Australia. National below average lower BMI than 61% of females in my country. Global Above average than 71% of females in the world.

For me MFP has worked. First time in my life I have been able to lose so much weight, I tell people I am not on a diet, diets didn't work for me. I try to watch portion control and exercise now. I do most of the time watch what I eat but don't deprive myself totally just don't eat as much so yes for me it is a lifestyle…

I don't think it would be rude at all to not go. Spend time with your family and grandparents!!!!

Congrats! love the before and after pictures. I wish I had taken some when I started but very very camera shy. Thanks for sharing, you look great!

I have some coworkers that have really boosted me by commenting on how much I have lost. It has really helped me. But I never actually tell anyone how much I have lost because I feel like they are going to think "she weighed alot" but I did and am still working on it. My oldest daughter this weekend said she would love to…

And I will still be there for everyone, but I need to be taken care of first by me. [/quote] HELL YES!!! Hi 5! [/quote] I'm with you on this one!!!! That's exactly what I decided in January of…
