Black Lab - Freaky (9 yrs old) Yellow Lab - Trouble (3 yrs old) Thought that Freaky needed a friend..... so we got Trouble.... if he could I think he would still want to get our money back. He really is suited to being an only dog!

I am so with you - although I have only managed to lose 29 with MFP I have lost 50 in total. I have been helping my mother out alot and every time I see her she keeps saying that she can not believe I am losing so much weight. I know she is trying to encourage me but I hear something different. I know that I do the same…

Make sure that you get the recruiters business card or at least contact information so you can send them an email thanking them for the interview. I have done that for the last couple of jobs that I have had and it makes an impression.

Hi Jessica, Make sure that you take your measurements too.... realistically when you take your measurement and there is no change in the scale then you can at least see that you have lost inches. That too is a great motivator.

You look amazing! Congrats!

I love salmon - tried rainbow trout last night for supper I was not a fan. The salmon filet was fresh - i made a marinade for it 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets lemon pepper to taste garlic powder to taste salt to taste 1/3 cup soy sauce 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/3 cup water 1/4 cup vegetable oil Directions Season salmon fillets…

Yep! I am there with all of you!

I am in hoping to lose 10:happy:

Yes he knows and no he does not care whether I weigh 100 lbs or 500 lbs he loves me for me! The outside is just a package he loves me anyway.... besides I am finally lighter than he is!

Ontario, here add me if you would like

I set mine at 1600 but I am eating more like 1800 -2000 because of the amount of exercise that I am doing - I have been losing about a pound or so a week. But I only weigh myself once every three weeks. I love the scale but in all honesty when it is up I lose motivation - I have learned that I can eat what I want but I…

I have found MFP to be an awesome tool in order to identify why and when I over eat. I log everything the good, the bad and the really ugly. I have learned to make better choices and as a result I am closing in on 50lb loss mark, the majority of it done with the help of MFP. It is a tool it is not a solution, you have to…

I wear etonic jespara but they wear out in about three months and cost a fortune but they are amazingly comfortable

Nope missed that, ended up making leek and potato soup with soy and chill and ran it through the blender - kinda sucks but hopefully this will get better quick

Five years but still are not married, have been together for 10 years. My philosophy why try to fix what is not broken. But I do understand I just wanted the ring on my finger.... and now that I have lost weight it does not fit LOL .... he still does!

We have a lady who wears a bathing suit to the gym because our gym has a pool, she is about 70 yrs old and just wears a skimpy cover up... needless to say we always have to wipe the equipment because she thinks it is ok not to have shorts on..... for the rest of us gross

Congrats and good luck training for the ironman! Your story is amazing! Way to go !

My Mother is always telling me to make sure that I keep it off this time. Seriously you are not a skinny woman how dare you tell me to keep the weight off. Or my favourite, you eat so much salad, I am worried about you! Before it was chips and chocolate now I am eating an effing rabbit and she still makes comments. Look at…

When I do sit ups both of my dogs try to help. The yellow lab usually tries to sit on my stomach and the black lab likes to sit on the mat underneath me..... they both usually try to kill the exercise ball when I am on the elliptical. My husband thinks that it is hilarious so he tends to let the dogs into the basement…

I eat high protein for the most part - so I eat anywhere between 15-24 oz of meat or other protein a day! I am a carnivore I LOVE meat!

The other option is to just get put a tiny hole in the pants at the seam and add a draw string. I have had to do that with a couple of pairs of my yoga pants.... You can get a draw string at the fabric store for cheap and don't have to spend the money on pants..... at least not till you get to the size that you want to be.…

Congrats that is such an outstanding change! Keep up the good work. I also find it inspiring that you were able to lose 50 lbs in 8 months. I have been stalled for about a month now and I just keep working out and eating properly and just started to see the scale move this week I am hoping that for next weeks weigh in I…

I did not look at your diet log but I have the same problem when I don't eat enough protein. I actually try now to eat more protein it keeps you fuller longer... if you are burning more calories then your body is going to required more fuel
