I normally crave fast food, because of course. Red meat items, mostly. Also, Mexican food of any kind. Cheese, beans, and tortillas are the BEST!

We certainly don't subscribe to the idea that meat and cheese are inherently bad as long as they're in a balanced diet. The problem is that our diet isn't balanced. As far as what we eat right now, we really like fried rice, baked pasta, mexican food, that kind of thing. I normally try to pair things with steamed…

That's really inspiring! A friend of mine convinced me to run an 8k (5miles) in August and I'm starting from scratch. This really makes it seem like I can do it!

Sexuality is a fluid thing. You can be one, or several orientations over your lifetime. Follow your instincts about how you are feeling and know that no one orientation is wrong or right. It's just what is right for you.

Favorite food: The All-Star Breakfast at Waffle House. I only get it if I've been really good that week since it comes in to about 1000 calories not including the chocolate chips and syrup I put on my waffle. I normally leave most of the hashbrowns and bring about 1/2 of the waffle home for breakfast the next day. Favorite…

What a transformation! You can definitely tell a huge difference in how you look. Keep up the good work! P.S. I love the arms!

You look like a completely different person! Be proud of what you've accomplished! I can only hope to be half as successful as you're being.

Green tea is my favorite, it has so many health benefits to it, too. Another really good one is Yerba Mate. Sometimes you have to go to a health food store to find it, but it's flavorful without sugar and it really helps to fill you up so you don't feel the need to eat so often.

I like a nice vinaigrette, flavored or not. Firehouse subs has a good raspberry vinaigrette, but I'm not sure what brand it is.

Great job!! Keep it up!

Way to go to you! Looks like you're halfway there as well!

On January 1st I was 197 lbs and as of last Saturday I was 185.6. I've had a few bad days since then so I'm guessing I'm back up a little, but I think even 10 lbs in that amount of time is pretty good when I have only changed my diet.

Your right that it's hard to see a difference when the two pictures are apart, but the difference when the pictures are merged is astounding! Great job!

Miracle, without a doubt.

If I were you, I'd make a PB&J.

I had a root canal a couple weeks ago. It's a lot like getting a filling, it just takes longer. The worst part is the sound that the tools make, but that makes it seem worse than it is. Since they numb you up you should be fine. You might be a bit sore afterwards, but your dentist should give you a prescription for pain…

At my heaviest I was 235 and I wore a size 24. Now I'm 189 and 18s are starting to feel big. And I think odd number sizes are junior sizes and they do fit a bit differently than the evens. I'm not sure why they have that distinction, a pair of jeans is a pair of jeans to me.

I've never been a smoker, but my boyfriend was a terrible one and used electric cigarettes to quit smoking. He loved them because it turns out cheaper than buying a pack a day and since he was trying to quit it didn't bother him that it didn't feel like smoking with the burn you get. One word of caution: Since your throat…

Of course that counts! I got the idea from a program called "Knit to Quit" that was designed to help people quit smoking and alcohol.

I live with my dad who does the grocery shopping. I can't tell you the battle it takes to get some yogurt in this place! : )

I'm newly climbing back on the wagon as well. Feel free to add me and we can support each other!

I'd like an invite! : )

Congratulations! ... Now I'm going to look up how much a Stone is.

Congratulations! You're an inspiration to all of us. If you can lose 100, I can surely lose my 40. Keep up the great work!

Right there with you. All of the papers and studying I have to do is really cutting into my excersize! Do any of you know of satisfying study foods that aren't too unhealthy?

This isn't fixing an accidental double-post, I swear... Look! A shiney thing! *runs away*

I've got a soft spot for all of the revenge motivated goals. When I was at 210 and starting to be relatively fit I ran into an ex that I dated when I was a 230 lb blob. There's nothing like seeing that jaw drop!

Good one! That was a huge moment for me!
