Funny that you posted this, I was just telling someone about my first day at fitness bootcamp and how I almost walked out a quarter way in because I barely made it through the warm up... now I sometimes throw in and evening bootcamp after the morning one!

Lacy stuff... colour doesnt matter, it depends on what Im wearing... I find thongs more comfortable than full. On a guy... a good snug fitting pair of boxer briefs... yuuuummmmyyy!

Drink lots of water to flush it out... and start again tomorrow! Thats the wonderful thing about this lifestyle change thing... one bad day isnt going to ruin it all :) Dont over correct though and go nuts tomorrow... just keep at it like you have up to now, and congrats on the 20lbs!!! :D

Im glad Im not the only one! My hubby though it was a rediculous idea.

thats what Im getting... a phoenix and a dragon together, its actually going to be a cover up of a really messed up tattoo that Ive been meaning to fix for a long time, and figured when I get to my goal weight and actually get to wear a bikini in public, I want a pretty tattoo... I got the phoenix started today, and when I…

Welcome!!

Waldem farms 0 calorie dressings... A GODSEND!!! I particularly like the 1000 island dressing its sooooo good! They have a website that you can order off of if your local grocer doesnt carry it.. And it doesnt taste like light 0 calorie cardboard either.

My journey is not the same as yours, but we are all here for you if you need it! And I agree 100% with the person above... dont look at the big picture right now... break it down to 10 or 20lbs mini goals.. Thats what I did... 10lbs at a time..I didnt look at it like I needed to loose 60lbs, but that I needed to get below…

THATS SO AWESOME!!!! I had a similar thing happen..,, my hubby and I are re-newing our vows in South Africa at the end of this mont (most of my family couldnt make it to our wedding, including my dad)... and I had put on my wedding dress from when we got married... and it didnt fit.. NOT EVEN CLOSE! So I bought a new one…

Ok.. im going to try this myself... BEFORE HALFWAY THERE :D I think this worked!! Only 30lbs to go!! PS... thats a tattoo peeking out... not some wild hair!! (hee hee!)

Thank you!!

BEFORE: Halfway hopefully this works... Im only halfway there!!

I dont know how to do pictures!! Someone help... what code do I use on my photobucket to get it embedded here?

Here is My before: http://s1096.photobucket.com/albums/g336/Coralie_Solms/?action=view&current=_1110671.jpg Here is my "halfway" http://s1096.photobucket.com/albums/g336/Coralie_Solms/?action=view&current=_2280764.jpg My hubby took these... sorry my feet are cut off in the halfway.

YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!!:flowerforyou:

AWESOME!!!

Welcome to my happy place!! If it werent for MFP Id still be wallowing in self pity!! Congrats on joining up and making the first of many good choices!

I always think Im going to have a cheat meal, and then when I sit down with it in front of me I think of all my hard work and usually end up putting it in the fridge for my hubby the next day. Thats not to say I dont cheat, on days where for whatever reason Im really under goal (bootcamp days usually) I will have a higher…

BUMP!! Im loving this!

MEEEE!!! Well, the back of me anyway!... well part of the back of me... Im not brave enough to put all of me up yet..

Well if THAT doesnt get his attention.....

Frozen grapes. However, if its chocolate Im craving I make my hubby buy a candy bar and I have a nibble!

LOL!! I have to listen to that song secretly... My hubby cant stand it... so I only get to listen to it on the treadmill with my Ipod... :D I love it though!

It depends on my mood... usually its "bring out your dead - Strung out" or " Prayer of the refugee - Rise against" or if Im feeling pop-ish "On the edge - Lady Gaga"...

Yeah, Im on the FP 1200 calorie diet, its worked for me. Im pretty happy with what Im getting to eat though. I have the worlds slowest metabolism so I dont get too hungry... Bootcamp days I eat a little bit more because I burn off so much, for the most part its between 1000 and 1200... and I dont really get hungry at all.…

I just keep putting on foot in front of the other.... Ive mostly made this a complete lifestyle change versus a diet... and when I do feel like going crazy and throwing it all to the wind.. I think to myself... "Ive lost x amount of weight... is it worth throwing that little bit of progress away?" and the answer is no...…

HAHAHHA! I think you just gave my hubby a complex... I was looking through this thread, saw your picture and my jaw hit the floor, I called my hubby over and was like "look how much weight this dude lost, he looks super hot!"... he is sulking now...oops

I also want to not run for the light switch whenever my hubby gets frisky... I wanna leave the lights on and love it!

Mines retarded... but is a secret goal none-the-less.... when I stand with my feet together, I want to see a little space between my thighs, instead of squelchy unhealthy flab pushing together! Hahah,,, it looks dumb when I see it written down.

Amazing!! Your post is just what I needed!! You look awesome too!
