This is simply very hard to believe! I cannot fathom how wonderful and happy you must be. What an adventure you have lived. Thank you for spending the time in writing this. It is very helpful to so many.

Way to go, janetterdz93! Its amazing how easy this is if we will just keep logging honestly every single day.

Welcome back, I like many of us have had to restart. It is a learning curve that hopefully we will eventually get into our thick heads that this is a slight change of lifestyle and not just a diet for a little while (I am sure you have heard that before). I plan to continue logging my intake until I no longer can, that is…

I have tried losing this weight a hundred or more times in the last 20 years..I can do so well until the scale stops rewarding me with a lower number! I can lose very fast for the first couple of months but you let me stay below my calories and not lose weight for a couple of weeks and I have always quit before. NOT THIS…

It is really great of you after achieving this tremendous weight loss to continue to spend the time in posting to us that are trying to emulate your success. Your hard work and diligence in losing this weight has not only rewarded you in a much healthier and happier state but it has also helped many others that want so…

Thanks for posting your experience and especially your success. I usually lose about 20lbs fairly quickly and then hit the old plateau and happily jump off the wagon and start eating like a pig. I plan to stay on the wagon this time for the rest of my life. How were you able to keep losing when you hit a plateau for a few…

How about some tips on what works the best for you. You are an incredible success!

I wish I had kept my first one...I dont even remember selling it! I think I sold it when I was 16 so I could buy a car.

I am from a small town outside of Birmingham (Cropwell) . . Heres "GREAT SUCCESS" to all of you from Bama!

For those of you that question why to stop the diet drinks....I havnt stopped mine. My understanding is that the artificial sweetner they use is not good for you, but if they can keep me from wanting a sugared drink, Im sticking with them. My main concern currently is dropping calories, when I get to the correct weight, I…

Yes, I know what you mean. The scales at my doctors visit last year read 303 (with shoes and clothes) but I had never weight that much before. I went on a low carb diet and listing my calories on fitday and lost about 15 lbs for a while. I thought I had everything under control and did not need to list my food and quickly…

Each time that I look at pictures like these, I am so amazed with the difference. I am also in awe of the dedication that it took to make the changes to lose that much weight. YOU DESERVE AN AWARD....no ....you already got it....your new body! How beautiful and healthy you look.

Duct tape

Pam, two months and losing 8 lbs is not bad at all...thats 2lbs per week and is the ideal weight loss. If you are wanting to lose more than that, you can, but it is extremely hard. You would need to exercise a lot ot burn fat and also to keep from losing muscle. I am told that those that lose alot of weight quickly can…

I promise, but until I can squat without my knees making all kind of noises, all Im going to use the kettlebell is for upper body work...more like a barbell. Its pretty effective just sitting watching the TV and lifting it up and down.

I ordered Bob Harper's kettlebell, it has a curved front and back to be more comfortable on your wrists, its really a nice looking kettlebell, as kettlebells go. Since it is the first one that I have ever seen, Im not that great a kettlebell judge! It also comes with his 30 minute rookie routine. I am 57 and out of shape…

I hate those people that dont see that you are stopping for a school crossing because they are texting, smoking and eating while driving and flippling gnawed chicken wings and cigarette butts out the window as they check out their makeup in the mirror, and they plow into the rear of your car or motorcycle during about 60…

Yeah, lots of bikers are ROTUND, especially the cruiser, touring bikers!

6 is better than 2! Ha ha.. Hope you do well with the weight loss.

We like the same things, hot rods, classic cars and bikes! Happy losing weight!

Try to eat most of your vegetables raw if possible. It is a fact that most of the goodness is gone after they have been cooked over high heat. I take a product called Juice Plus that helps me with the lack of raw vegetables that I normally eat. Yes, I think you can over do fruits because of the calories, however, you need…

What is the most interesting thing that you have ever done?

What happens to the OTHER sock! Where is it?

How do you make it through life without a head? We want to see your face!

Yes, Im going to watch a LOT of instruction before I actually start this program. I would not like swinging that weight into my knee or somewhere more painful!

Too late to work into this with something else! (I get in a rush when I want to do something) I ordered one of the 25 lb Bob Harper contour shaped kettlebell. I found it on his website for over $95 and started checking and found the same one on www.gofit.net for $65 and then found the same one on www.target.com for $59 so…

Thanks for your replies. I finally had a few minutes to do some internet searching and found this for anyone that is thinking about giving this kettlebell thing a try: Patty Scott, a SparkPeople member (ZORBS13) and Agatsu-certified kettlebell instructor, stresses the importance of getting personal instruction when it…

Anybody have an idea what weight I need to start out with?

GREAT WORK! I know you must feel so much better too! I plan to do the same...come hell or high water! Thanks for posting...did you excerise a lot or just count calories?

We have 3 Tennessee Walking horses. We used to ride every weekend but now we are riding our motorcycles and giving the horses a break. They are well fed and are a part of the family.
