You look GREAT! So inspiring! Thanks for posting!

Great job!

Great day! You look GREAT!

Actually had 3 people that work in Walmart ask me Tuesday have I lost some weight. Last month I went to the drugstore to pick up my mother-in-laws medicine, and the clerk asked me have I lost some weight. It make you feel REALLY good when people notice! Had a girl last night at church ask me could she have my old clothes.

I actually found a heart rate monitor on ebay. So I can't wait til it gets here. But Thanks for all the input. My arms were a little sore this am, but anyway still walked my 3.5 miles. If I have time tonight, I will probably do the 20 minute express as well as the cardio work out. Has anyone else tried the dvds? Just…

GREAT job! You are proof that we can stick with it. I know looking at the BIG picture it seems impossible. But When you keep your eye on the prize, the little bit every week adds up to A LOT at the end of a year! GREAT!

other than walking and drinking water, this is the biggest change we have made. We have switched to whole wheat. Whole wheat pasta, whole wheat bread. I still eat regular Jiff peanut butter most days for lunch, and Welches Grape Jelly on a whole wheat sandwich round. I have lost 46lb since July 12th. The BIGGEST that we…

Another NSV. Yesterday when I got out of the shower, I wrapped the towel around my WHOLE body, and tucked it in! And then last night, my size 18 jeans fit. I know that 18s aren't good, but they are a LONG way from where I've come. Started out in 24w, then 22w, skipped right over the 20w. So glad I can wear my 18s and sit…

My NSV has got to be walking and my knees not hurting, and not waking up during the night with my fingers and wrist hurting. It's amazing how for about 9 years now I have passed it off as carpal tunnel. But withing the 1st 20lbs down, they haven't hurt since. Wow what a feeling1

Great job! I can't wait til I get there!

Great job! I know you are excited, and I am motivated! Thanks for sharing your GREAT news. I hope I am singing that song soon too!

Way to go!

GREAT!

way to go!

I had been stuck since October 30, hadn't lost or gained a pound in over 2 weeks, and yesterday I added 10 minutes more to my walk, and ran for 1 minute before my cool down. I'm not saying that was the magic, but something worked, and that is the only major difference that I did. Hang in there, maybe try increasing your…

GREAT job! I know you are very proud of yourself. People seem disapointed too when they find out that thats all I'm doing too is drinking water, walking, and eatting healthy. There 1st response is I don't have time to walk, but I REALLY don't have time either, but all of us are given the same 24 hours. Way to go on your…

Got my laugh in for today! That is soooo funny! Congratulations!

OMG that's amazing! That's how I found out about this website this past Summer, when someone was on the Joy fit Club! Congrats We'll all be cheering you on! Way to Go! I am HAPPY for YOU!

There's not a class near by here, the closest class is 30 minutes away. Has any body tried the dvds are they just as good????

taco bell has a GREAT Fresco Ranchero soft chicken taco, I think it is only 170 calories, and 4 grams of fat! It's GREAT!

eat more fiber. Whole wheat bread, and drink plenty of water

You can do it you can do it RAH RAH RAH!!! Hey we ALL can!!!

I think a lot of times when you are a Mom, and Wife, you put everyone elses needs before your own. I just got so involved in caring for my children, my sick mother, and my husband, that I didn't exercise, and just didn't take the time to make good food choices. This past Summer I just said, I have got to take better care…

cabbage! We like pork tenderloin with cabbage. Ham is pork so I say cabbage!

GREAT Job!

We eat turkey birgers, meat loaf made out of turkey, and my kids LOVE sloppy Joes made out of turkey. I used a whole wheat bun and made sloppy Joes, and both my girls, 8 and 11 said you have got to make these again, why did we ever eat these unhealthy anyway! And we always use the extra lean which has 1 gram of fat for…

Happy Birthday!

I was in a size 91/2 before losing weight, then went to a 9. Could not believe it but Saturday when I went shopping, I fit into a size 8 shoe. I think your feet do shrink. Oh, and for the record, I had to buy smaller undies and pants!!!!

Not much of a breakfast eatter. I have always found that I don't get hungry until I eat something. I can go til about 1PM before I get hungry, but once I eat, I have to keep eatting. Although I don't like to eat breakfast, I realize that studies say that it is important to eat breakfast, so after my morning walk, I will…

You look amazing! You are proof it can be done!
