I would like to thank each and every one of you for your kind words of encouragement! It really means a lot as I continue working towards a new me!

Since so many have asked.....NO....I absolutely have not had any kind of surgery! I have lost my weight by eating completely differently and by exercising. The exercise has really only been in the last 6 months or so because before that I was too heavy for much activity. As for the eating....I eat different stuff and much…

HI everyone....so glad to see this group started! I've been on this journey since May 1st 2010 but didn't find out about and start MFP until August 15, 2010. When I started my journey last year I was at my all time heaviest (525) lbs. Gee....I can't believe I just posted that. Don't get me wrong, I've been extremely…

I love those because they are thin and crispy....can actually have 2 of them!

I agree, the Special K milk chocolate are the best I've found but they have too many sugars/carbs so I quit them.

I just got a pandora charm bracelet for my birthday last month and 2 charms. It will take awhile to fill it up so I've decided to reward myself with a new charm every 20 lbs I Iose. I've got lots to lose so I'm looking forward to my new charms!

My inspiration was just the fact that I want to live instead of just exist. Didn't really have an ah-ha moment although I wish I had one of those years ago before letting myself get that way. Honestly my before pictures discust me but I'm glad I have them as inspiration to never go back there.

I've tried all three flavors. My favorite is key lime pie and then mint chocolate chip. It is GREAT!!

These are before and during pictures....still have a long way to go! The first pic was in April 2010, other one was October2010

I made these muffins today....only I used a spice cake mix and a 15 ounce can of pumpkin....that's it. No eggs...no oil and no water...you don't need it. These are the best, moistest muffins ever!!

If you like thin crust pizza, I've found using a flour tortilla works great! I use low fat cheese, saute mushrooms and onions and use turkey pepporoni....it's delicious and we have it once a week!

I fit in this category! I've lost 140 since May 1st.

Awesome! You should be so proud of yourself for how far you've come! Keep up the great work!
