Hi you all....I'm in the same boat as all of you and have gained and lost the same weight and it never gets easier. My mom is a breast cancer survivor and bless her heart, turns 81 in May. My sister has problems with cysts. So I'm no stranger to the horrors .......having you all to help support and encourage will make us…

This is a life styel change, something you will do everyday of your life....Is everyday of your life always perfect???? Your food choices won't be either, don't beat yourself up, learn from it, move on and get right back to it...... Always remember, your not where you want to be but your not where you were…

You should be very proud of yourself....you look wonderful, keep up the good work!

Wow, all the 40's and doing so great.....pick me, I would love to share the support.....this has been key for me, the tracking and the support. Good luck to all of us....Fabulous and 40:drinker: :drinker:

Our alarm goes off at 3am, I get him out the door and exercise at 4:30am......I find it helps to control my eating all day also. I think about it before I put it in my mouth, something about knowing you already got in an exercise.....welcome to the EARLY side :)

I get up at 3am to get hubby breakfast, lunch packed and out the door. I do my exercise at 4:30....if I don't, I never get to it at the end of the day. I think it also helps me make better food choices because I think, after all that exercise why do I want to blow it eating this.....:smile:

Hi Beach, Sounds like you have a positive approach to get started again....good luck! I'm in the same boat but unfortunately, i gained but am back with motivation and determination.......we can do this!:smile:

1984, my friend begged me to go to this party to meet this guy that they thought was so right for me. ( I had a boyfriend at the time that I was trying to get rid of and was not interested in getting another so soon). I agreed to stop by the party for a little bit, meet him, wasn't thrilled and then the boyfriend i was…

Hi MKB....welcome, love Glasgow Park, don't go as much as I used to because I live in a big subdivision and walk that instead. But love walking at Glasgow Park..... Great job on the weight loss :)

Now that is motivation to get out there, nothing like a walk on the beach.....

Plan your meals differently during this time to work into your calorie count.....include chocolate if that is what you need or a carb or whatever it is....if you plan it, it works into your plan and you will be fine.....it is a hard time of the month but planning helps.....

I'm an emotional eater and was always going to "start" Monday......it would start out good and then one little mess up and I was done for the day, told myself you blew today start tomorrow, tomorrow i would blow it and then it was might as well finish out this week and then MONDAY START.....obviously my START MONDAY'S came…

You are rocking the program.....way to go!

Way to go David, it feels good doesn't it? P.S. Welcome back to Delaware :smile:

Been riding with Hubby for about 28 years now, had lots of bikes over the years but he kept the 97 Fatboy with the custom pearl white and burgundy paint job. Love it, he tried to teach me to ride about 25 years ago, I was like 21 and almost ran into a wall and since then he won't let me get my license. I mean come on, I…

Ah, just what I need......

My all time favorite is Leslie Sansone, our alarm goes off at 3am, i don't actually roll outta bed until hubby is out of the shower, then I go get his breakfast and lunch. He leaves around 4:20 to 4:30am and then I slip a Leslie tape in......can do that, get my lunch together before I jump in the shower and out the door…

Way to go Jak....that is dedication......what videos do you do?

This is such a great story, congratulations!

Do you know ever since I joined to group, I have never seen anyone on here :) Easter was great, a little indulgence but still did good. When I look back on other years, I'm pretty proud of myself! How about you?

I'm doing ham but instead of the usual mashed potatoes and stuff this year I'm doing twice baked potatoes, broccoli salad, corn casserole, croissants and making lemon blossoms for dessert.

wow....you look absolutely fabulous....what a great inspiration! Congratulations.....

Hi, I cooked extra chicken or beef and get a few meals out of it. One night have chicken tacos and save the rest for chicken salad or soup.......the beef you can do a grilled hamburgers then do sloppy joes or lettuce cups or anything. I also cut up veggies and store in plastic containers or zip lock and it's easy to throw…
