Thank you.. I really needed this.. I have been stuck for a while and it's hard to not get discouraged when the scale won't move. Great job!!

Started at 265 at 42DD and now am at 192 at 36DD.. Weird thing for me is the cup size has no changed at all.. I like them a little bigger, but as I am losing in the band, it becomes harder to find bras that fit correctly.. =/

I have a "B" belly and it's so stubborn. I still have a ways to go, but I can tell it has gotten smaller. I notice that I tend to lose more from my sides and then moves inward. It makes me feel like it will never go away.. Does this happen to anyone else??

Well that explains it.. I think I could get 2 teaspoons down.. I tried with tablespoons yesterday and it was very difficult. Thank you so much!

ugh, the flaxseed oil and water mix is killing me.. I can't really get it down =/ Thinking about taking tablets instead

What also bothers me is how society views "skinny" people as healthy.. When I was maybe around 210 pounds or so, I was on an elliptical busting my *kitten* on a preset of hills and next to me, a fairly thin girl with a trainer gets on an identical elliptical. I noticed she picked the same preset and she was huffing and…

My favorite article! http://www.thefrisky.com/2010-08-09/girl-talk-i-lost-100-pounds-and-found-out-what-the-world-thinks-of-fat/

I'm starting week 3 on Monday and I'm at work planning my meals for next week.. Reading through.. I'm pretty scared. Definitely going to have to be creative on recipes this week. =/

Thanks! I've been on this awful plateau and hoping Shred will help. I'm on W1D5 and I can already feel a difference. I will definitely try some of those snacks. Thanks for your support and input :)

I have been drinking lots of water, but my snacks are consisting of nuts, fruit, cottage cheese, hard boiled eggs, and string cheese. I am trying to keep it as clean as possible, so nothing I have been eating has been really heavy or processed.

It's weird with me.. almost down 70 pounds and I went from a 44DD to a 36DD.. Cup size hasn't changed at all...I like that I am large chested but I do find it hard to wear certain styles of shirts.. Put it over my head and I can't pull it past my chest =P I am hoping they shrink maybe a cup size or so, but we'll see as I…

I am finding it really hard to do most of the ab exercises.. I am hoping as the days go, they will get better.. and damn that V-squat one :grumble:

Hi Everyone! I'm a little late.. My name is Rachael and I have been using MFP since around October last year. My weight loss journey started last January. Scheduling my first physical in a few years I panicked and made me really want to put an honest effort towards losing weight. My heaviest was 265. I was doing pretty…

I am on the same boat.. Definitely take measurements! I took measurements and pictures. I'm trying not to step on the scale because it will just discourage me from continuing. I actually started on the 27th so I am 3 days ahead but I have noticed that my legs, butt, and arms are a lot more toned since I've started the…

How Inspiring! I just started it tonight! I hope I see as good results!

I had the same concern.. I started noticing veins on my legs appear as I was losing weight. So I went to my doctors a few weeks ago and brought them to his attention. Having varicose veins is partly hereditary. As you gain weight, your veins begin to stretch and it becomes harder for blood to flow through them. These may…

This website might help you out. http://www.bpmdatabase.com/ I personally like to keep it near 144 bmp so what you can do is find a bmp that you like and then type it in the search and find songs that are at that tempo. If you are like me, there's nothing more annoying when your ipod goes to a random song that is slow when…
