No problem, I added a pic a little late.

Haha, sounds fun! I personally haven't done a Zumba class but we did some other dance style things and it was more of a workout than I was expecting!

Welcome! Feel free to add me.

bump for later

I bought lean turkey burgers last night. On the package its said "Great for vegetarians". I was kinda confused about that lol. btw I'm not a vegetarian just thought that was odd.

Add sodium to your diary list. You may find you are very high in sodium due to eating out a lot. That will hurt your weight loss. Good luck to you!

Awesome accomplishment! WTG!

Congrats to everybody so far! Such a great victory. Before and after so far by shanejoshua, on Flickr I'm actually down another 12lbs form that picture. My starting weight was 311.5lbs now 223lbs and still working on more

To assume any "reality" TV is a plausible source of reality is a little silly. Even though the show sets unreal goals for people in everyday life, it also lays out this great concept. If you bust your *kitten* and eat healthy you can succeeded. That is what I get from the show and inspires many to do the same. Don't ever…

These are all amazing and inspiring!

I like the idea, very motivating!

Those are all awesome!

If you're on here to impress others than you've already failed in my opinion.

I have top agree with some as they said if its just out of curiosity than mind your own business, but if you really care I say without a shadow of a doubt I would say something, in a caring and honest way. I know if it was me going through something and someone asked if I was okay out of caring, I might not like at first…

I know most will disagree with me but truthfully I would say something. If you talk to her at all I would bring it up. I would do it when you two were alone and just be honest and caring. If she gets mad than she gets mad. If its an illness or something than ask if you can help, or something like that. The truth is if she…

What does everyone mean by maintenance? Personally I don't have a cheat day/ 's but I do allow some unhealthy stuff in as long as I stay close to my nutritional intake for the day. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

My fiance and I are doing it together also. We still have a ways to go but so far we've lost about 70+lbs together. Your story gives me motivation and inspires many. I hope your successes carries on in everything you do!

The Postal service has been one of my favs for the last year. Though there is an endless amount of great ones that needs to be heard!

I usually have a banana and/or some protein. Though I'm not an expert either!

We are planning a trip somewhere that requires us to be in shape. We are thinking about hiking to Havasu Falls

Pick a day, and a time. For me Monday first thing in the morning (6am). You can get addicted to weighing yourself and it can effect your life in a negative way. What is your goal, to actually be healthier and look better, or to change numbers on a scale?

I tip 20% as an average. More if the service was amazing. Though I've had a very few times that the service was beyond bad, and I didn't tip.

Bump for great ideas. I recently bought some sesame ginger marinade and it was awesome for something so simple.

How tall and how much do you weigh?

I'm not sure of your height but oddly enough you might not be eating enough. I'm by no means an expert but one of the things I have learning on this journey is your body needs ACTIVITY to get your metabolism strong. Like a car you need to gas in it to make it go, well your body is the same. It needs the fuel! Also the…

I have this overwhelming feeling to try to out do the person beside me at the gym. Though most cases its me who fails but it makes me push harder so I guess its okay!

I use MFP and my fiance uses WW. We both have been loosing though she hasn't really lost any in a month and half. I feel that weight watcher gives you to much freedom on certain foods but either one I feel will work in my opinion.

1st) Stop caring what other people think about you. If they don't like you the way you are, well truthfully they're not people that matter. 2nd) 5'8 and 154 is not unhealthy and a lot of people strive to get to that! Lastly) Make lemonade!

Does my tummy count? Looking at it gives me motivation! :)

Its hard to give an accurate answer unless you make your food diary public.
