Amazing progress! I'm going to be working on strength training after I get back from vacation and this inspires me.

Good ol' Granny Smith.

I don't even think that is possible nor healthy. Most foods contain sugar, even vegetables contain sugar (on the lower side, but still.)

Omg, thank you! Such flattering comments. I'm blushing.

Thank you!

Thank you! My stomach is still a work in progress. Ugh lol. I have a bit of a pooch going on. Although, I'm pretty sure with enough time, patience, and work, I can get it to be pretty flat. My tough spot is love handles (lower back). They don't seem to want to go away. It makes finding dresses that are tight hard since I…

I actually have a waistline now!

Meh, just by reading about it on webmd it doesn't sound long-lasting or healthy. You might lose weight while on it but as soon as you get off I would guess your probability of gaining it back would be pretty good. Since most people probably see this as a quick fix, learn absolutely nothing about eating right, and continue…

H&M, Express, J. Crew, Nordstrom, sometimes Forever 21.

I've been getting it more lately (never really used too before). Not a fan. I find it obnoxious most of the time. Especially some of the looks or cat calls I get when I'm driving my husband's truck.

My 'magic' number that I'm aiming for is 120 for weight loss. But would be more than willing to gain weight if it meant gaining muscle to lower my body fat %. Right now I'm 127 and 7lbs will make a quite noticeable change. I think many aim for between 120-130 (If they're average height) because it is what the 'norm is' and…

Thanks everyone. Lol, I really did it by joining Nutrisystem. I was on the program straight from October 2010 until November 2011. I followed the plan directly and moderately exercised. Then in November I decided to start getting myself off the program since I was 140lbs and my original goal was 130lbs. So, I have only…

Thanks!

Also a big thank you to everyone who has commented. :flowerforyou:

Meh, I pay $239 per order. It's not bad in comparison to similar weight loss programs with food orders. At first I was nervous about spending that much and not knowing whether or not the program would work. It was my first time ever joining a weight loss program. However, once I saw the pounds dropping the cost aspect has…

Thank you everyone. Definitely gives me motivation for these last stubborn few pounds I have left! :tongue: Yes, I did! Love H&M.

Lol thank you.

I don't necessarily feel 'fat' but I don't feel as 'skinny' as people are now perceiving me to be. There is still a lot of work under the clothes that needs to be done but covered under clothes you would never know. I've never been this small in my life so its completely new and I'm still trying to get used to not being…

Once a week.

If you continue and don't see results I suggest going to a doctor to make sure your hormone levels, thyroid, and everything else is normal. Best of luck to you. I'm sorry you're having such difficulty. :(

You can do it! Also congrats on your weight loss so far.

You look amazing. <3

Going through same thing. I have a little more to lose and then I'm going to focus on toning and gaining muscle rather than losing weight. Can't really gain muscle on 1200 calories which is the amount I'm in-taking as well.

Lol thank you! I am indeed. I never thought I would accomplish as much as I have when I first began this journey.

I'm buying a bunch of clothes memorial day weekend. (SALES!) I have to lol. I literally have one pair of pants that fit and maybe 2 shirts. Everything else is non-flattering and makes me look frumpy.

I was tagged in an image on facebook from a wedding I had attended and didn't even recognize myself. I didn't know I had let my weight get so out of control.
