SmartOnes Breakfast sandwich 230cal because I was in a hurry and I could heat it up at work. Most days thin bagel with peanut butter and jelly.

I've read that the combination of aspartame and caffeine is no good for your brain. However I still drink diet coke. :drinker: I also try to limit myself per week.

Wow! What a heated topic... I have a friend who lost weight and kept it off on Atkins. I tried something similar but hated it the whole time! MFP works best for me :love:

I can't wait to be in maintenance :love:

My reward would be new clothes :) I haven't thought of when to get it but every 25lb I might need smaller pants... however I have pants up to 2sizes smaller in my closet already. Waiting to be worn.

Very inspirational! Thanks for sharing! :)

:laugh:

hahaha! :laugh: sugarkissprin- 100lb? Wow! Awesome job!

Way to go! I can't wait for my one year MFP-versary.

I have little patience too but what other option do we have? A year from today we will be happy we stuck with the plan.

I'm going to do this. The little extra movement could add up!

Wow! Congratulations! When you first started and had to lose 50lb you cried and now that you are this far and want to lose 87 you KNOW you can do it. Good job! I wasn't able to see the image.

You could be close to getting your monthly visitor. Keep at it and you will see results. The weight loss slows down after the first two weeks. I focus mostly on the calories. Don't worry so much on "don't eat this and don't eat that." You seem overwhelmed as is. You can refine your diet later. Good job at losing 17 so far!…

Do they get a prize at the end just for trying? You can't control the scale but you can control the behavior that leads to the weight loss. Reward the behavior, not just the results. Some people might lose it slower than others and you don't want them to get discouraged. The point is for everyone to be healthier, right?…

One fruit or one cheese string.

Nice! What's NSV by the way? I see it everywhere.

Hahaha! Too funny

Female Shepard kicks *kitten* :D

Eat some but count the calories. If I ignore strong cravings I end up binge eating later.

Yep. I did a search on the topic just yesterday. Apparently it is very common. Here is the link to the topic: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/569388-women-menstrual-cycle-and-weight-gain

I'm glad I found this post. I haven't lost weight this week even though I haven't gone over my calories. I hope this means water weight...I also readjusted my diary so that I may monitor my sodium intake. Lets see next week :)

I know leg exercises more than arms. I have 2lb weights, exercise ball and actual stairs.

Thanks! You guys a great support :)

I was wondering if the arms ever look good after weight loss and yours look great!

I love before and after pictures! They are so motivational. Congrats! You look great!

Bad *kitten*! I love the tattoos!
