We order lunch out every Friday at work. Since my "lifetime naturally thin" co-worker heard that I was taking steps to lose weight, now EVERY week she says something like, "You pick, since you're the one watching what you eat." Um, no matter where we get lunch, I'm going to try to make a good choice. It doesn't really…

Amazing! What a blessing from God! :) Thank you for sharing!

BUMP! These sound delicious! I must try them...

My breakfasts are always under 400cal - my diary is open - feel free to browse. Here are some of my favorites: 3 egg omelet with cheese: 290 1/3 cup rolled rye flakes with honey and butter: 184 1/2 cup quinoa (prepared from quinoa flakes) with honey and butter: 256 Chobani Greek Yogurt - Black cherry, mixed with 1/4 c of…

That's so awesome! :)

Please do seek help, and you are a SUCCESS for knowing that this might be a good move. Having fears about weight and eating and the balance of it is something many people struggle with. It doesn't mean you're a failure, any more than a kid who is learning to walk and falls down is a failure. They just need support until…

Thanks for your post! What an inspiration! I have 2.5 months in - I hope for results as dramatic 9.5 months from now. Bravo to you, sir!! Kudos!!

Awesome and inspirational! Thanks for posting! :)

From what you have shared, it does sound like emotional and physical abuse. Please contact a hotline or another caring resource right away and take action to separate yourself from this man right away. Mid-May may provide a convenient time to split without shaking things up, but in the meantime you get more and more…

Happily married to a balding man! Very sexy!

Great job! :) So glad you're feeling great and making such fantastic progress!

Thanks for your post! Very inspiring! Blessings to you as you continue forward.

THanks for the great motivation! My start and goal weights are pretty close to yours. I'm at about 16lbs lost so far, so your great story is motivation to keep going. :) Congrats to you!

Thanks for the great inspirational post! You look beautiful. Thanks for posting!! I so agree with what you said - it's surprising how much the support and encouragement from all of these wonderful MFP "strangers" can mean.

Thank you for posting. An inspiration!! So happy for the fitness you have achieved and are achieving! I lost weight about 15 years ago and very slowly gained it back. But this time, I'm adding fitness when losing, and I'm developing better habits. Inspiring stories like yours really help the journey. At about 16lbs lost,…

Amazing! Great job! Thanks so much for posting - very inspirational! We are about the same height with the same goal weight. :)

Awesome job! :) Thanks for sharing your success with us - so inspirational!!

Saving this one for later!

Great job! So inspiring! Great pics. :) Many blessings to yoU!

Way to go!!! :) You look great, and also younger! :)

It does get better! Don't quit and stick with it! I've been amazed at how much further I can go without feeling fatigued. The important thing is to not give up!

I'm not sure if they're right nor not, because of course no day is exactly like that day. (It says "If every day were like today, you'd weigh xxx in 5 weeks.") However, those have been so motivational to me that I have stuck with it because I want the 5 week goal weights. All in all, they haven't been too far off for me,…

Great victory! All the best to you!!

Great job! :) So inspiring. Thanks for sharing your pics and story. Many blessings to you!

I am 5' 6" and need to lose about 30 lbs total - I've lost about 12-13 so far. I'm not a college student - graduated a long time ago, but feel free to add me if you like.

I take my Kindle and plop it down in front of the display of the elliptical. I set the amount of time I want to work out, and then just work out and read my book until it beeps that the time is finished. I find that I feel more tired and worn out if I am watching the display...you have burned x number of calories, and you…

Way to go! You look great!

Feel free to add me! I have lost about 9 lbs so far (3-4 weeks into it), and have roughly another 25 to go. :) I agree - It has really helped to chart everything I eat to have accountability.
