I'd like to see some also. I'm almost 100 lbs pounds down and still have a lot of loose skin.

This is awesome. There is also a group on here for C25K. I started last summer and I'm about to run my 4th 5K this Saturday. I spent the winter trying to increase my speed so I'm anxious to see how I do.

I'm down 83 and 41 away from goal. I have major differences but keep thinking that the fat will never go around my stomach and hips.

I officially started at 264 but I was probably around 272 at my heaviest. I started in a 22/24. I never really bought any size 20's since I just kept wearing my loose 22/24 pants. First time I bought anything I started getting into 16/18 around 230 lbs. Now those 16's are getting big. Right now I'm at 184 and wearing 14…

I'd like to join if I can. I need a challenge.

When I was in labor with my son, the anesthesioligist comes into the room and is commenting the whole time he is giving me the epidural that "we have a big one here". I had a long and hard labor with my son and the anesthesia wore off long before I was done pushing for 4 hours. The same anesthesioligist comes in to remove…

I'm from a suburb of Buffalo, NY. I feel generally safe in my neighborhood although I'm aware of robberies in the area, not so much violence. I work for social services for the county and I have much more concern when I'm working and I make homecalls to some very sketchy areas of the city alone. Although someone who is…

I remember the Pretty Plus section!! I hated that. That is part of the reason why I now find it so weird to shop in the "normal" sections of stores. This is the first time I can remember not needing to go to plus sections.

Congrats!! My first is next weekend.

MY husband and I graduated on Sunday, 9/23. We run our official first 5k on Oct 6th. I'm a little nervous because I have no idea how long it will take. What if I can't make it? I'm planning on doing a few longer runs this week and the beginning of next week.

We worked at the same nursing home. He was an aide and I worked in activities. I took every opportunity to flirt with him but wasn't sure he was getting the hint. My coworker/friend then made a more direct statement to him of how I might be interested. He finally got up the nerve and we exchanged numbers and started dating…

I wanted to add that I did walk for several months before starting the C25K and even though I didn't do this purposely to prepare for the C25K, I think it helped. I wanted to step up the exercise and decided the c25K would be a good way to do it.

I am in week 4 of C25K and I started around 215 lbs. I think it is important to just pace yourself. I may not be the fastest runner but I am running. More speed will come with time. As long as you do not have any medical conditions that prevent you from running, go for it!!

My husband and I live just outside of Buffalo in West Seneca. We are doing this together.

I mentioned this to hubby and he told me to reply. Both of us tried hydroxycut a few years back. I became very jittery and nervous and felt like I was having a panic attack which I never have. Hubby got violently ill puking and stomach pains. He didn't believe me that it was the hydroxycut so after he got better he tried…

I'll be glad to help. You are near my urrent weight even thoug I've soem weight already. We can do this together.

Thanks to all who have responded. I know my body better than to jump into intense high impact workouts. I'm working exercise into my life slowly. I try to walk/run on the treadmill at least 5 days a week and I also do some calisthenics including hand weights several days per week. I tried the 30 day shred last week and was…

Years ago before online dating was really big I tried using the personals in the newspaper to meet someone. You could reply to someone's ad using a voicemail box and then they would call you if interested. Problem is that all the mailboxes had access codes that were just 1 or 2 numbers off. I left a message for a guy and I…

I was about to post something about wanting to lose 100 and being a woman and then saw your post. Count me in. I was at 264 and goal is 160. My goal might change once I get there but I didn't want to say 130 as that sounds too foreign to me since I've never weighed anywhere near that in my life.

I try to hide in pictures too. love taking pictures but hate being in them. Please feel free to add me as a friend.

I understand about the someone watching you thing. I've done best when I've had doctors offices checking up on me. But then I learned to avoid making appointments and cancelling appointments so they can't check on me. I've only been doing MFP for a little over 2 weeks but I really like it. It keeps me accountable as to…
