Starting Weight: 244 (3/12/12) Goal Weight: 224 My goal is to need to buy a new swim suit for the summer because my old one no longer fits. I've had it for so long and have just been squeezing into it every year.

I really like the way the people on this site are so supportive. Its really helpful to me to see other people reaching their goals and encouraging each other.

A side plank is when you go up on one arm and the side of your feet, keeping your body straight. I find it hard because it involves balancing all of your weight on a small surface area.

My NSV this week was stopping a binge before it got too out of control, and not allowing myself to feel guilty about it, which is a big accomplishment for me. Challenges for March: I want to exercise for at least a half hour six times a week. My weight loss goal for March is 10 pounds. My challenge exercise is the side…

What would be the point of losing weight…

I have been on a mushroom kick too. I sautee them in EVOO with chicken sausage and then add spinach till it wilts. I mix this with either scrambled eggs or pasta etc. Always delicious!

Just know that you are not alone! I have a similar problem with binge eating, and when I do it I always feel horrible afterwards, because I have let myself down. My biggest problem is evenings. I do really well all day, and then when I get home alone its so easy to just keep eating and eating. It definitely makes me feel…

Yes! I normally do the grocery shopping, and as part of my attempt to get healthy I have been going every Sunday so that I can get fresh produce. My family knows this but will still stop at BJ's to pick up really unhealthy food, french fries, chicken wings etc. Its hard for me to have temptations like that in the house all…
