Hi I started my 100 pound journey on March 13,2009. I have lost 54 pounds and am still working hard. I hope to be able to say on December 31,2010 that I have lost 100 pounds. I wish you lots of luck. Just work at it day by day, drink your water, exercise at least 30 minutes a day, and have a treat of dark chocolate every…

Sounds great count me in!!! I lost 52 pounds last year and want to lose another 50 this year!!! Thanks for starting this challenge! Jackie:happy:

Switch Witch!!! The night after Halloween (Sunday night) have the kiddos put the Halloween buckets full of candy out on the front porch. The Switch Witch will come and take all the candy and leave a new toy, book or what ever your child loves in its place. My kids love this.

Hi I work in Round Rock Texas as an Education Assistant at Teravista. I started at 249 and am now 200. I have 2 kids 9 and 6 and am 41 years old. Let me know if you want to chat. Jackie

Never mind I must have fixed it!!! Good luck with yours. Do you have the info posted under setting, then forum account posted 3 times??

LOL!! You have 3 and I can't get my 1 to work. Wanna share!!!

I mean goal not met!!! I can't lose 50 pounds or spell!!!

I agreee with the whys of putting their height and weight on the show. They didn't do that for Jillian on the Bachlorette. Ridiculous!!!

I am truly amazed at the differences sizes play into what you weigh. I am 5'4" and some people on here have said they weigh more than me and are already in a size 16. I am still in a 20 at 210 pounds. I hope to be a 16 by my cruise in Nov. and if I could possibly be a 14, well then luckily that is my moms size and I can…

Thanks for giving me your measurements. My waist is 42 and my hips are 52 so that is why a 20 is still more comfy. I guess I will plan on being a 16 by the cruise and hope for the best. I will probably be a 20 when I get home. Hope not!!

Thanks for all the info. Although now I am more confused because I weigh 210 and am still in a 20 and some seem to be in a 14 already. I guess everybody is different. I have had kids, so I have the saggy belly! LOL

You seem to be pretty busy tonight posting ridiculous post! If you need to gain some weight, my suggestion is to get off a weight LOSS web site and go eat some cake!!

So I read a little on the skin brushing. It said that when your skin is itching it is healing. My stomach and waist at the sides and above my hips has been very itchy and has a small rash right now. I thought it was a chemical from the pool I had a reaction to, but do you think it is because skin is shrinking?

Isnt there a difference between white sugar, syrup,etc, and natural fruit or honey?

Its only like a cup of fruit total. Is that too much at once? And all I have had today is a Mcdonalds grilled chicken salad, balsmaic vinegrette dressing, 1 cup rice a roni, 1 cup peas, and 3 oz salmon. Plus I walked for 30 min at 3.0 and did 150 situps.

But it is natural sugar isnt that okay?

Where should we go instead?

I have a saggy belly! I am worried that as I loose weight, it will sag even more. Where does the excess skin from arms and belly go? I don't want to work hard to lose the weight, just to have excess skin that hangs even lower in the front. I know that I can always wear Spanx or something to hide it, but does anyone know…

I have lost 25 pounds over the past 2 months. Lost 2 inches in hips and even 1 inch in the neck, but have not lost even 1/2 a inch in the waist. Does anyone know some good waist exercises. I walk on the treadmill for 2 miles 4 days a week, Jillian Michaels shred 2 days a week and rest on Sunday. I would think I have lost…

I found a recipe to stirfry mushrooms, bell peppers, onions and garlic together. Melt fat free provolone chesse and place on a whole wheat bun. I want to make it for dinner, but what can I use to stirfry the veggies instead of oil? Any suggestions?? Thanks

I started on March 13 at 249 pounds. I am now at 225. I haven't told anyone at work, church or personal(except family) that I have made this lifestyle change. I have been waiting for someone to notice that I have lost weight, but not one person has made a comment. I know that this is for me and not other people, but I…

I am always over in protein and under in calories and fat!! I ate 2 eggs for breakfast, salmon and brocolli for lunch and a Lean Cuisine panini with salad for dinner. I am over by 35 points in protein. Is that okay? Why is the protein set so low? Isn't it better to be low in fat and calories. Thanks for any advice!!

I am curious as to what everyone's opinion is on Lean Cuisine or WW dinners. I have been having them for lunch and dinner along with adding a green salad or fruit. I do this about 4 times a week. I also have the Progresso soups a lot. Does anyone have any opinions on the quality of this food verses from scratch. I have…

I seem to go over in protein a couple times a week and always am about 200-300 calories under a day. Any idea of a problem going over in protein. I still seem to be losing about 2 pounds a week, which is my goal.

What does your heart rate need to be when exercising??

Just look again at what your inspiration is!! Your son!! Nothing is more worth it than losing weight to spend more of your life and quality life with your child!!

Our (male) PE coaches have a "boot camp" on Tuesdays and Thursdays for us after school. They love to be able to yell at the teachers and not get in trouble especially the Principal. We also have kickball or volleyball on Fridays after school. We start a district wide kickball tournament this weekend.

I grew up in Ponca City, but now am in Round Rock, Tx!!
