I got rid of mine. Even though there were a few things, such as tops, that probably still fit, when I wore them, I still felt fat, like I was seeing the old me! YUCK! So, everything new, and a couple of purses and earrings and bracelets, etc.

The Birds, I remember it was on TV once, and I hid behind a chair. My kids saw it recently on TV, and laughed their heads off. "This is the movie Mom was scared of?"

How lovely of you to take this time to share with us your mother's story! She looks so good, and I am so happy that she was motivated to take care of herself. Way to go mom!:flowerforyou:

I'm 54, and 5'6". I wanted to get to 125 because I have weighed that in my younger years. My lowest weight was about 110 before kids, etc. I am currently hovering around 128, and I like where I am. I weighed 146 when I started dieting, and I felt pretty big. My husband says I have a small frame.

I keep messing this up! The lady who said the doctors were telling her to wait a few more minutes!!!! Oh please!! I was told that too, and then the nurses were in a corner asking each other how they were going to keep me from pushing..I guess they thought I was deaf. Anyway, when I told my husband he was going to have to…

I had my third child naturally, and I don't remember what I actually said, but I was told to stop screaming because I was scaring the other pregnant ladies on the floor. :laugh:

Swordfish. My employer had a Christmas dinner for all the employees and we went to a really nice restaurant and that's what was on the menu. I got really sick, and my husband and I left. Didn't quite make it, had to throw up downtown somewhere:sick:

Everyone should own a coffee pot! :huh: For mother's day, my son bought me four different kinds/brands of coffee!! He wins the "son of the year" award!!:love:

It's really hard to come up with the "worst" wedding I have been to. I have been to so many, and there have been some that are just so bad, but for various reasons. I would say here is my list of things. Bride and groom should love each other and it should be obvious to everyone attending the wedding Bride should not duck…

I hate when the zipper tab gets wedged in at the bottom of the zipper and I never realize until I already have my pants on; then I have to try and dig it out. Ugh! When will I learn to check before putting them on?:grumble:

You look absolutely gorgeous!!! :flowerforyou:

I have dieted many times in my life, and when I was younger, the weight came off with sticking to a certain calorie count, and exercising. I didn't eat back the calories then. Now that I am older, that same routine didn't work, and after trying everything, I decided to try the eating back the calories, and lost weight the…

I can't even begin to tell you how excited I was to see your post! I know several legally blind, and several blind people, and they are all overweight and out of shape. I am happy to see that this handicap has not slowed you down, nor decreased your desire to take care of yourself. Accolades to you! I heard of a woman…

Loved this! I am 54, and hope I can still do what I do now when I'm 80!!! That is who I want to be when I grow up!!

August, 2012 I am female, age 54, and about 5'6". Most people think I didn't need to lose any weight, but I feel so much better! I also think that is…

When I clean it's usually been a while, therefore, it takes a LOT of work, so I always count it as exercise!:smile:

Congratulations! You look beautiful!!:drinker:

I thought I would never stop laughing at this!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Absolutely loved reading this post! I am 54, and since August have lost 17 pounds. I am only a few pounds away from my goal weight. I think it is so encouraging to see us older gals still able to lose despite what commercials say! Yea for you!!
-
I like the first ones. Are both pair comfortable?

I'm 5'6" and weight 129, so I must look super anorexic! Congratulations on your well done job! To put a good spin on it, it probably has to do that you lost so much weight that people started thinking you looked awesome 30 or 40 pounds ago!

Today, I weighed in at 129, the lowest in years! I was so excited. My husband said I looked great and wondered if I lost anymore would I blow away! :love:

I think I would try to include a variety of foods, if possible, that there might be something for everyone. I went to a wedding once where the groom was allergic to sugar. The wedding cake was ordered with a sugar free top for the bride and groom, and the rest of the cake was supposed to be normal. Well, the whole cake…

Hi, I'm 54, and know definitely that it is harder to lose! I had about 15 -20 pounds I wanted to lose. I started in August, and slowly but surely, have lost 16 pounds. If I don't lose any more, I'm good with it, because I feel so much better. I did lose it slowly, but consistently lost each week, maybe only a half pound or…
