Superb! Cheers to your progress! :drinker:

It is a wonderful feeling. Congrats! I'm on week 8...and like you, never thought I'd make it past W1D1! :noway:

Dry Frosted Mini Wheats Little Bites and a cup o' Joe with fat free half n half and 1 packet of Truvia. Oh, and my daily multi vitamins.

People who "sshhhh" me. Don't "sshhhh" me. That all of the delicious things in life are fattening. When people wear grey and khaki together. Teenagers who say "*kitten*" for every other word in a sentence as loud as they can with no respect or regard to the kids or adults around them. People who assume that it is okay to…

Work. I was in intern. He was...older. That was 1995. Married to other people. Kids with other people. Divorced from other people. I'm no longer an intern. He's still...older. Married 8/5/11 LOVE him. :heart:

DMB...but only LIVE and always better with Tim Reynolds. :love:

Drinking ice cold, triple hops brewed Miller Lites on the beach and working on my tan...with my Kindle and my sweetie! :love:

I'm 5'4". HW: 252 CW: 160 GW: 140 (but that may change when I get there!) Funny thing is, I don't feel like I'm short...LOL...I guess maybe I am. Oh well! Welcome and healthy thoughts to you!

AGREED! My nine year has eaten a processed meat nugget since he watched a show on it...3 years ago! I make homemade chicken nuggets that are FABULOUS!

Miller Lite :drinker:

The first big step is that you WANT to. That's huge! Congrats on getting to there. Screw the people at the gym...chances are they probably aren't looking at you, but even if they are, let them look! As you drop pounds and gain muscle, they can watch your body change right before they're staring eyes! If you make eye…

I looked in the mirror and saw nothing but FAT. It made me nauseous. I stopped eating crap and started moving my body. I'm 5'4". HW: 252 CW: 160 GW: 140 (but that may change once I get there!)

The local fare...it's about the experience, not the calories. Let me know when you visit a Phillies game, I'll treat you to a cheesesteak... :noway:

Yeah, add me to the group...which reminds me, it's time to make an eye appointment...:glasses:

Welcome, Laura and congrats on a GREAT start! You're doing awesome! Feel free to add me...I'm always up for more positive, upbeat friends! :drinker:

Just throwing this out there for you gum chewers... My nutritionist told me years ago that when you chew gum, you're teasing your belly...all that chewing gets your stomach excited that it's getting ready to be fed. The stomach actually kicks in to the beginning phases of digestion...and then when it gets nothing (because…

I am 5'4" and my highest weight was 252...I'm currently at 160. Eight years ago, I lost 90 pounds just by altering my diet and exercising. I kept it off for a long time and then gained about 15 pounds when I went through my divorce in 2008. I'm back to working on a healthier lifestyle and hope to drop 20-25 more pounds...I…

I'm a grudge holder...for life. I find forgiveness very difficult and it's something that I'm working on. I'm not perfect so I know I shouldn't expect others to be either. I'm pretty sure that the reason I don't trust too many people is because of this, as well.

No ex-husbands!

I no longer worry about what I look like when I'm on top. I'm not winded during any type of regular movement. Cute clothes. I've been told I look like I'm 28...I'll be 39 next Thursday. :wink:

Take it slowly...don't walk/run too fast at all. Repeat days and weeks if you have to. To get your breathing right, try inhaling for two or three steps (through the nose) and exhaling for two-three steps through the mouth. Really concentrate on breathing. It will help! I'm on W7 D3...and I LOVE this program. I always add…

DQ's Peanut Buster Parfaits A&E's Intervention Masterbating The smell of Wite-Out and Sharpie markers Loading my kids up on sugar and caffeine right before it's time to drop them off at their dad's on his weekends with them. Sleeping alone on nights when my husband is out of town for business...partly because I get…

"10 Days To A Less Defiant Child" "Why Me?" I just finished: "Growing Up Amish"

I use Stevia in the raw...a healthier alternative and no after-taste. :smile:

I consume lots of fish, water, veggies, fruits, cereal, eggs, chicken, pasta -- absolutely NOTHING fried. :noway:

Currently, sucker. :sick:

Welcome! Feel free to add me, too! You can totally do this if you're ready to make a lifestyle change! :smile:

Last fall, on our way to his football game (and he was wearing ALL of his pads and helmet), my nine year old and I stopped for gas and the guy behind the counter asked him if I was his mom...so, Nolan told him that I was and then the guy said, "you're sure lucky to have such a pretty mom." Nolan, in all of his 9 year old…

At $4 a gallon, just buy her gas....she'll love you!

YES! I just remind myself that if I stopped, I would be in worse condition and it would take even longer to get to where I want to be! UGH! Stick with it! You're doing so well! :flowerforyou:
