lots of people react like that just because they know they should be doing the same but are too lazy to. keep on doing what you're doing you will be the one living life to the fullest while they will be lagging a few miles back huffing and puffing.

All I can say is GoodLuck. We went to my husband's cousins a few years ago and we could NOT get over the food. It just kept coming and coming. The few suggestions I read- cheat day and eat then dance, dance and dance some more seem like good suggestions. You will only be able to put in approximations for the food since you…

if we all follow Dr.Oz's "tips" for weightloss we'd be broke, fatter and more stressed because of lack of results. There are only so many ways to lose weight healthily and he tells us none of that. probably because he wouldn't get paid for dropping companies products names. Good Luck if you try it but i'll stick with how i…

great job ! now instead of a window your food will come from a refridgerated showcase,produce showcase and the dairy fridge. your body will thank you all day long. before i would've loved to eat out for every meal (wallet held me back) but now we rarely go out and if we do i figure out what i am having and what that will…

that nsv is not at all silly. in fact i have lost about 22 lbs but cannot fit into a smaller pair of jeans that is just waiting for me in my closet. hope it happens soon because the only pair i wear now are getting pretty thin in some spots. Soon.... Great Job

Hi I had a total of 90 lbs to lose and have already lost 22 lbs thx to MFP. Add me as a friend if you like

you are kicking butt and should be very proud of how far you have come. i completely understand about pictures. i tried to take a picture of myself the other day and it took me at least 10 tries and i STILL didn't like the result. oh well someday

these are things i normally do 1. think about whether this is something i NEED or just something i WANT 2. go for something healthier, instead of chips i eat sugar snap peas, plenty of crunch 3. brush my teeth. 4. drink more water- plain or with a juice single(crystal light for example) 5. if none of that works aim for…

that's hilarious. good on you for sticking up for yourself and new life

Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada

been on here since jan. and lost 22lbs thus far. looooooovvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeee it. add me please. i just wear adidas running sneakers right now

you are so right! it is addictive. my daughter has facebook, i have MFP. i love it. i have lost 22 lbs since jan. 5th. i do and i don't have mini goals. each pound is a goal for me but i am at my prepreg weight so time to get down and drop the crap that i put on. i do aqua classes like zumba, bootcamps at my gym(HIIT) and…

i know exactly what you mean. i just had a daughter 8 months ago and i can count MAYBE on two hands how many pics we have of her and i together. i am now regretting that so i am starting to take a few(at least 5 or 6 takes before i like one) but i should have some memories of us when she was a baby. i think we need to suck…

I think I will be the exact same as you when that day comes. Congratulations. I love how you got on the scale at least 3 or 4 times. That is what I do as well

Welcome, You have taken the first step to a greater you. Add me if you like, I am on here for the long haul ! 70-75 more lbs to go :flowerforyou:

different road surfaces. gym equipment doesn't change but outside there's pebbles, potholes, bumps, etc.... Ypur body has to compensate for that. It can't predict what will happen to it like it can in the gym. Great run though. I am not a runner or a jogger quite yet I have to strengthen my ankles and knees first Keep Up…

Thank God I don't shop at your store. My store as soon as you walk in your faced by all the produce and the deli and bakery sections. On a side note the bakery section has always been a bad section for me but I can say I don't buy anything from there at all now.

One thing though because it has been so long since I've been close to my goal weight that I find it hard to picture in my head what I will look like. If there are any ladies that are 5'10 or so with a large frame around 170-180lbs. I would love to see pics. Message me if you don't mind Thanks in Advance

I am 5'10.5 and have a large frame. My goal weight is 170, My lowest weight was 163 years ago but I didn't look well. If I laid down all you seen were my hip bones( not too sexy,if you ask me) I have large hips so a little cushion will be okay. But it's eachperson's own preference to what weight they are happy att. As long…

I myself am 5'10.5. I'm going to keep that half inch for as long as I can lol. I started at 259 and am currently at 238. I am identical to Mandie I have a large frame and everyone underestimates your weight. Which isn't a bad thing I guess. My goal weight is 170. My lowest was 163.5 but yeah pretty gross looking when you…

we are always our worst sabatours(spell check here) your own worst enemy couldn't do as good of a job as you can at putting yourself down. For me this is the first time where something in my head shifted. I still have days where I don't want to do anything, eat a whole bag of chips etc..But I am taking every day one at a…

it looks like you lost a lot more than 40! You look beautiful. You are just under halfway to your goal! Wonderful Job. We have close to the same amount of weight to lose. I just made it over the 20lb mark so when I get to where you are I hope I can post my pics too !

take a deep breath, count to 10-100-1000, whatever will work. And then dig in your heels. All that you DID is in the past you should focus on the now, that is the only thing you can control. Plus don't beat yourself up that's the quickest way to gain all that weight back, just accept and move on saying "Ican do this, I can…

great work proud of you for looking after you and your health. your mom i am sure would be very proud as well. I am also sorry to hear that your mom passed .

Question for all of you responding. How hard is this on your knees? I do Aqua Zumba and absolutely love it but I've been wanting to buy it for the Wii since it first came out but am hesitant due to crappy knee pain. I tried one Zumba class and I could hardly do it because of all the twisting. Would it be worthwhile ? I…

where can you get it or how do you make it. i love pb but now with trying to lose weight and 2kg almost $10. i rarely get it now. we used to go through one of those a week

your before pics didn't even look like you had that much to lose. great job. you look wonderful

i also just looked at another post that referred someone to builtlean.com. it has an awesome article which explains what i was telling you before. technical term for it is High Intensity Interval Training HIIT

amazing. you are close to my height so it is great to see wht i WILL look like when i get down in weight.
