GREAT!! Congratulations!! Thats really great.. hmm whats mine??

My health. Being overweight has taken a toll on my body. I am getting older and need to stop ignoring the fact that old age will not be good to me, If I am morbidly obese and need others to take care of me.

I just got off Cruise Vaca- the fitness trainers were trying to sell me a seaweed detox system. its was REALLY expensive- so I didnt buy it. It was a bath of seaweed 1x a week for 9 months- cleanse my body of the extra 20 lbs of water surrounding my fat cells... Anyone know anything about this? Should I try to find a…

I go out to eat alot- more than I should. Chili's has a new menu that's lighter. Olive Garden- ask for light dressing on salad, or minestrone, no bread sticks- choose chicken, red sauce etc.. watch your pasta- high calories!!!- do they still have mixed grill?? Most restaurants have a grilled chicken salad, or seafood…

As with any hard decision it is a journey with ups and downs! Good luck on yours! Believe in yourself and keep your mind and body first!!

heaviest- 331 now/ lightest- 277 goal- anything under 200... I think 160-180 would be great... My highest I was for like 5 years. give or take 20 lbs.. the other day I wore a shirt I hadn't worn in 6 years because It didn't fit. I love it so I kept it!! That was fun!

bump!!! will have to try this out with my students..LOL when Im on a diet... EVERYONE is on a diet..LOL

People ask me about "what im doing" I tell them immediately.-- I gave up junk food.. they don't like that too much. bc they say.. you mean pizza?? chips?? soda?? LOL.. . I have also cut fat from home cooking- eat mostly chicken, fish, nothing fried, non fat dairy.. and I'm at the gym 3-5 times a week.. and I swim when I…

I dont take supplements. If im hungry I eat high protein, low fat... fat free refried beans, non fat cheese, jalepenos, lettuce and hot sauce.. yummy!! and low in calories.. you can either buy tostados already crisp ( 50 calories each) or microwave a corn tortilla for a couple minutes and it will crisp up.. when Im hungry…

I grew up eating the vegetables that my mom fed me.. Of course.. "country vegetables".. salad was boring growing up.. NOW? I love it!! Because you can put fruit in it!! and you don't have to drown everything in ranch dressing. I love asian salads and salads with vinaigrette dressings.. and I now like a variety of veggies…

I log all fruit and major chopped up veggies cooked in my dinner. I don't add up lettuce/ a slice of tomato/onion. If I put it on an extra lean burger or sandwich.

Caribbean jerk chicken and white rice...

It had been a few years since I saw under 300 as well.. I am SO looking forward to under 200 lbs!! Good luck to you! You have a beautiful SMILE!!!:smile:

I know all about plateau's its frustrating but don't give up. intensify your work out- switch up your diet... and keep trucking. Dont worry about the scale-eventually it will catch up to you and fabulous you!!!!

baked im sure... Sweet potatoes have more nutrition and lower calories than white potatoes. I have been eating sweet potatoes for months now instead of white potatoes!! Good luck!

i love ice cream. I eat churn style ice creams and measure them out, skinny cow indivdual wrapped treats, frozen cool whip with frozen berries. I havent tried frozen yogurts- but im wondering if the "whips" would be good. I love frozen desserts...

You should always assume its him and just go the another route-without contacting him. If I ever see an EX anywhere I turn around and the other way- there is always a reason he is an EX. Move on because its in the past, I wouldn't bring it up to your current relationship because it will cause tension. He will think you are…

any wild game food, gnawing on a bone- chicken,RIBS,pork chops etc, papaya, dark meat chicken or turkey,

yes *kitten*!!!! That's what I say. All those damn commercials that everyone is happy because they have a Big Mac Value meal or any of the advertising that includes foods that make you fat and miserable. There is no disclaimer or warning that says- you will only be happy if you only eat this once every six months and eat…

depending on how much time I have- fat free yogurt- greek or regular ( frozen fruit added if plain yogurt) nutrigrain waffle with honey nutrigrain bar grapefruit migas made from egg beaters, pam spray, 2 corn tortillas, onion and fresh made hot sauce

My cheating seems to be 1 meal every other week, I don't plan on it- I just think about it until I have it. I try to work out more the following days, and still try really hard to stay within my calories for the day.. I am more conscience of what I'm eating even when I'm eating my cheat meal.

Don't worry yourself about the past!! Move forward do something active this evening, whatever it takes to make yourself feel better.

Did you mention how long you have been married? Whatever that argument was- its making her think there is SOMETHING else out there.. call it mid life crisis or whatever. So experimenting with bondage etc- I would totally go with it and participate. Everyone needs crazy sex every once in a while- hopefully it will help your…

I eat Fresca menu alot, because its tasty, low fat, low calorie. I don't feel guilt that its a lot of sodium. Why? because I am a REAL person with a busy life, and it's a better choice than a million other things I could be ordering at a fast food restaurant. This is a journey to become a better, healthier me, I am not…

Great thing about it- Every day is new day!!! Good luck on your journey to a improved you!!!

I am in the process of totally refurbishing my dining room furniture set- 6 chairs, 1 large table, and a buffet. Sanding it down, Expresso wood stain and totally recovering seat cushions for an entirely new look. I am excited about this project, but I have many more in the process as well- for instance I am dividing my…

Started in February 2012, at 330 lbs, I am down roughly 50lbs. Scales are not your friends, water retention, and all the other reasons the scale doesn't move. Don't worry about the scale. I have been up and down 10 lbs for the last 2 months so I haven't changed my weight on MFP because I can't get it lower than what is…
