I know we're already friends but if anybody else in this post wants to add me please feel free!

well done!

Yep smaller more shaply waist from the fron view and slimmer belly from the side. Way to go! You dno't have to justify your timeline to anybody, congrats on losing and keeping 8 pounds off!

aww those are all great! Well done you!

I lost my first 30 pounds and maintained it for 7-8 months before I started losing any more. I'm now working hard at it again and plan to be at my goal weight (so dropping an additional 90 pounds) in two years.

WOW! That's so awesome. Well done you!

that is so inspiring!

aww that's amazing and I'll sappily admit made me a bit teary. Good for you!

congratulations! you look wonderful.

I just wanted to add that if you really want to increase fiber that raspberries, pears, kiwis and avacado actually have more fiber than an apple and a pear is just as easy for transport (realizing the others aren't as simple to eat on the go).

another Pink Lady fan here! They're super crunch and pretty sweet. It's the only apply I buy lately! If you're more of a cruchy and sour person you could try the Granny Smiths. I also like Jazz apples but I can't always find them. They're borederline hard so if you're looking for a super crunchy apple it's a way to go.

WOWZA!

aww well done! you have beautiful eyes!

so amazing! I cannot wait to see your pics! Well done! Seriously, seriously well done!

umm okay, which one of you lovely people are going to send me a box of Oreo Cookie pudding mix because I don't dare buy a pack of Oreos (and don't have access to low-fat ones). anybody... anybody...Bueller? Bueller?

I used to be a obsessive, binge eater until I got therapy (cognitive behavior, physchology and group therapy mixed with seeing a nutritionist). I haven't binged in over a year now. (YAY!) Binging, for me, was eating until I was sick, voluntarily or involuntarily. It didn't have to do with calories in the least, it had to…

WOW! 12.5 kilos is an amazing loss! Of course they can tell! I've only lost my first 3 or so kilos but people I see daily have already commented on the change in my face. It's the first place I lose weight apparently. Good for my face, not so good for my butt! LOL Congrats on your loss.

wow!!! amazing hard work. Well done!

I :heart: this

I eat two slices of whole wheat bread every morning for breakfast and vary the toppings. Salmon is good for you but I don't think you should label the cream cheese as "not good". It doesn't have to be all bad. I have the Philadelphia low fat onion and chive cream cheese and it's delicious (and I think would go well with…

Keeping "well under your calorie goals" is more than likely the problem rather than adding in healthy fruits to your diet. You need calories (calories = energy) to fuel your body for those really hard training days. Don't be afraid of them, they're not the enemy! You should be eating as close to the calorie recommendation…

he's really proud of my efforts and tells me regularly. He knows I've struggled with being overweight since I was a teen and he wants me to be happy and healthy. My choice to eat something or not eat something wouldn't stiffle our relationship in any way because he understands that it's a choice I need to make for our…

What would you think if you saw a person stuggling to get up the hill on a bike? I'm sure you've seen it before...chances are... you can't remember a) if and when you saw somebody doing it b) if you felt anything negative about that person. What does that mean??? other people probably won't remember if they see you…

here is what works for me (and strongly believe that you can find something that works for you and it may not be what the "bulk" of people do!) 1) eat every 2.5-3 hours, never going over 3 hours without eating. This was I am never so hungry that I overeat at the next meal. I even have my reminders in Outlook set to pop up…

I am no expert but have recently been reading about soy products as my husband decided to no longer eat meat and apparently men are supposed to avoid soy products due to estrogen levels.

break your goal down in much smaller goals and it won't seem so overwhelming! Shoot for half a stone, or even a quarter... and when you reach that... celebrate... and start reaching for the next quarter stone.

I'm so happy for you! That must have been the biggest day brightner! Well done!

My hightest adult weight was 301. I'm down to 270 right now. I joined MFP just 20-ish days ago and am loving it so far ( for clarity, I lost the 30 pounds last year over the entire course of the year. I didn't join MFP and 20 days later am 30 pounds lights.)

giving somebody a random picture at a random time (that they may not look the best in) is WAY different than waiting until they make a bad choice (in you'r eyes mind you, you have no idea what they may have done or eaten when you weren't around in order to "splurge" later) and shoving a rotten picture of themselves under…

ditto x's 1,000,000 I wrote about this in my blog planning a "fat intervention" for a loved one: http://sarahsweightlossjourneyblog.blogspot.com/2007/05/wanna-plan-fat-intervention-with-loved.html
