Great post! I love this idea! Yours is great... avoiding temptation is one of THE major challenges, so way to go! : ) My small win is that I was really unmotivated to exercise. Was going to not bother and then a little voice told me to get to the pool. I ended up doing more than I normally do and feel great! : )

I lived in Italy for 3 years and have lived in a couple of other places. It is an amazing experience but i would recommend as much research as possible re laws, permits etc and, if you can, making a few contacts before you go. Italy is a seriously paperwork heavy country so it is good to know what permits and passes you…

cauliflower salad is one of my favourites and takes about 3 minutes to make...great with tofu (if you like it) or other salad but I love it with grilled portabello mushrooms. 1/2 head of Cauliflower (raw with stem removed if you like) 2 medium carrots 1 Garlic clove 3 tbsp of dried cranberries or goji berries small handful…

Holy F! That is AMAZING! Way to go you : )

My boyfriend is 10 years older than me and we've been together just over 2 & a 1/2 years. I don't think age matters. It is more about having a true connection with someone.

Hey, I'm on day 23 and did the 1st 20 days in a row. I think if I did it again I would take 1 day of 7 off. The only tips that I think might be helpful are to wear trainers that give really good support, drink water even though there are technically 'no rests' and keep an eye on joint alignment etc (jillian explains but I…

Are they perfect ? Doubtful, so don't let it get to you. They can only be great big green eyed monsters who want to bring you down because they can't lift themselves up to your level. I got called "fatty' the other day by a girl who pushed past me. Was about to be upset and then I looked at her and saw an unhealthy…

You can add me if you like : ) I am on day 18 of the 30 day shred so we can keep each other motivated. I am on relatively limited diet (pcos sufferer) but still have to cook for my boyfriend so I get how hard it can be to make healthy choices when others don't have to ( or choose not to). Anything is possible though :D

You are beautiful in all the photos but you look sooooo happy in the last ones! Huge congratulations! You are a major inspiration : )

Hey, I have been here since January and also have PCOS. I have lost 35 lb (some before I joined MFP). It's tough but if you need a friend or support/ advice etc feel free to add me. Good luck and stick with it...it is so worth it : ) xx

Way to go on the first week! I thought my love handles looked bigger but I think it's true that other places have shrunk ( agree with CyanideCyster). I'm moving onto level 2 of 30 DS tomorrow so I know it's going to hurt. BUT it will be worth it! My fitness level already seems better so stick with it. It is AWESOME! WAY TO…

I have PCOS too and it can be such a hinderance to weight loss so HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to you on your weight loss! There is also proof out there that the more weight we lose (pcos sufferers) the less symptoms appear so that is also great news! WELL DONE TO YOU : ))) Thank you for posting it's a real inspiration and great…

My name is Willa (which I think is getting more common now) and my surname is King. Problem is at christmas time when everyone sends me cards that say "Will- a-King be born in Bethlehem". Funny the 1st time. Also my mother's name is Isobel (standard Scottish spelling) but for some reason she got WILSON as a middle name.…

March to April goal is to complete the 30 day shred (mid march to mid april). Started it in feb but my ankles gave up before I did and so this time I am going to try it with proper supports and cross trainers. Also would love to lose between 7 and 12 lb. Twelve being the "heavenly healthy maximum" and seven being the "I'm…

You are so right....fewer carbs it is. Thank you : ))

Thanks so much for all the advice so far> I think the bit about carbs vs protein could be a real winner so that piece of advice hugely appreciated : ) Re the exercise, I do zumba, pilates, aerobics, swimming and tennis but I think some proper strength training is a great idea. Also loving the reset of the ticker thing!…

Lost 6 lb since beginning 7th of Jan. Sorry If post was a bit unclear : )

You look awesome. Have sent request : )

This is fantastic! Huge congratulations, both on the weight loss and the job! : ))

I love this! Off to buy a board game asap! Thanks for sharing : ))

You are so beautiful! I think you look way younger than in before as well! You are right you were pretty at the bigger size too though. Thank you so much for sharing this. I started at 250lb (17st 12lb - eek) and am down to 218 but haven't lost any weight for ages. I was literally about to give up til I saw your post and…

HA HA HA !! This has made me smile so much! I love how the definition of calories seems to have been lifted from a dictionary and yet words like 'proponent' have been chucked in just to confuse the reader further! As you quite rightly point out...the message is pretty simple and I much prefer your version! : ))

My trainers/sneakers when I had a personal training session. It was 6 am. : (

You look amazing ! Congratulations ! : D

I'm beginning to feel actual MUSCLE under all the fat! And my arms don't touch my torso when I'm standing up : D

Great going you look like a new person! : )

You look really beautiful! What an inspiration! Thank you for posting : )

I am on day 2 so if you want to add me we could do this together (?) You can do it! GOOD LUCK ! : ))

Definitely a MAJOR difference in both of you! Such an inspiration! Way to go both of you!! : ))

First of al eEeWww! And second about 4.5 gallons for me! Great motivation to keep going though! Thanks for the mental image : )
