no, I don't think you need to add on any weight. I think you look beautiful! (in both pics, mind you)

greek yogurt with a cup of frozen cherries and a scoop of cocoa powder (or chocolate protien powder if you'd like) and then blend it together.

this is amazing. thank you.

You should make her read this: http://sarahsweightlossjourneyblog.blogspot.nl/2007/01/jesus-in-jar.html Jesus in a Jar made you lose the weight! (that's what she wants to hear after all)

another "no white at a wedding" vote here.

your weight can fluctuate anywhere between 2-5 pounds on a daily basis and is dependant upon a lot of factors such as time of day, what you've eaten (high sodium), what time of the month it is, etc. Like the above poster said, weigh yourself once a week, most people usually weigh first thing in the morning before you've…

my younger self knew it all and exactly how life would work out, so what would be the use of giving advice? LOL

I went to a clinic here to seek help for my food issues. I was doing things like hiding and eating, binging, obsessing... it was really havng negative effects on my life, let alone my health. My head was constantly full of thoughts about food (not about eating it necessarily but about how good/bad I was doing, what others…

Jacqui McCoy - she was on Extreme Makeover Home Edition's 2nd season and I follow her on FB. She still works out really hard even after the show and constantly inspires me. She's been where I am so I think it'd be really awesome to work along side her. https://www.facebook.com/JacquiMcCoyEMWLE (I also "knew" her via the…

this!

although it is a stereotype of the Dutch to be very cheap, penny pinchers (well Euro pinchers)

I'm always happy to share when I can! I'm glad they resonated with you and thanks!

and the second: http://sarahsweightlossjourneyblog.blogspot.nl/2007/02/dirty-liarmouth.html Willpower: The dirty liarmouth. "I'm going to do it this time. I really am! I'm going to stick to it no matter what. I'm so sick of being overweight and I've had it! This is "it" for me!" I think we've all said something similar to…

I wrote two blog posts about this very thing: http://sarahsweightlossjourneyblog.blogspot.nl/2011/01/honeymooning-aka-will-power.html Honeymooning (aka Will Power) Honeymooning and willpower are kind of synonymous when it comes to weight loss. In the beginning I felt like I'm was in the "honeymoon" phase of my lifestyle…

by setting an unatainable goal, you set yourself up for failure. Why would you do that when you have done it before in the past and you know how it works out for you? Set yourself up for winning! Set an attainable, achievable, realistic goal and stick with it. Even if you don't achieve your target weight by ___ date, who…

fruit kabobs! or something similar to this http://www.crystalandcomp.com/2011/06/strawberry-shortcake-kabobs/

You're absolutely gorgeous and will make a stunning bride! Well done on your weight loss and getting healthy. Thanks for being an inspiration!

same to you! :flowerforyou:

I also suggest Glucosamine but you need the one with the Glucosamine and Chondroitin in it (I don't know anything about +MSM supplements so cannot comment on that). Glucosamine Chondroitin will take a while to get into your system and start working its magic, but it will work.

you look amazing and years younger! Well done!

do you really binge, or do you just eat some and wish you hadn't? What's a binge for you? Could it be you're really hungry and need a snack? How long was it since you last ate when you eat at night? If you feel it's due to stress, then work out a plan of action as to what you'll do next time you're feeling the need to…

another Rams, Cards and blues souther IL lady here (although I've been in Amsterdam, the Netherlands for the last 9 years, I'm still an Illinios girl at heart).

try googling "overnight oats" for yummy breakfast recipes. I have fresh fruit, veg, humus and greek yogurt on hand as staples at all times for snacks. I second skinnytaste's website as well!

Slow and steady wins the race! Give yourself more time before getting so discouraged because like the previous poster said, you didn't gain all of this in a couple of months, so why would you lose it that quickly? Also, use something other than the scale to claim your victories, like how do you feel about the positive…

I'm the same weights as you (currently) but 5'10", We seem to have similar goals. I'm happy to have a new friend for support!

most women I know with straight hair brush it several times throughout the day. I'm sitting across from a straight haired woman who is actually brushing hers as I type this. Do you brush yours throughout the day? maybe during morning snack, after lunch and before you leave for the day? I use the Johnson's and Johnson's…

or swimming if that's an option...

so very awesome! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your transformation!

Find one retort that you are comfortable with and repeat the exact same thing every single time she says something inappropriate and then walk away from the situation (givinger her space to think about what you just said). Once she hears that same retort for the 100th time in a week and see's she's not going to get the…

congratulations to you! That must feel really amazing to tackle one of your life's issues and finally get the right combination to win! Well done.
