It's perfectly appropriate for you to go out in public like that! You look great and you deserve to flaunt it a little.

I used to find myself eating all the time, even when I wasn't hungry. After losing a few pounds I realized that I was on a role and only wanted to do better. Everytime I go to the frig I have to ask myself why I am eating what I am eating. Sometimes I put it back in the frig and get water. I keep a "skinny" picture of…

Congratulations!

I was weighing myself daily and it was making me crazy. I now only weigh myself weekly!

I am a mother of two girls, ages 5 and 18 months! I would love to be in a group for moms. I need all the support I can get!

I will definately keep you in check if you can keep me in check. My 10 year class reunion is in June, followed by a big family wedding that I want to look slammin' for. I keep saying I am going to lose more before then, but it just isn't happening. I need to lose about 25lbs more, but since my reunion is the beginning of…

All the pictures are truely inspirational. I honestly don't have a "before" picture. I never take pictures because I hate the way I look, so it never even occured to me. I lost 12lbs. or so before I start mfp and now am at a total of 14lbs. Should I go ahead and take a "before" picture now? I still want to lose another…

OMG...TamTastic you look great. I am so looking forward to hitting my goals. Congratulations!!!

I really want this DVD. I am looking for a challenging workout that I can do at home on the nights I don't go to the gym.

I feel exactly as you do. I have the worst time trying to stay on track because I don't want to deprive my kids of all the fun stuff to eat like ice cream and pizza. I had two c-sections and I find it very difficult to take off the weight even when I am doing my best.

Wouldn't miss it for anything. I have seen every show this season.

I am from Northeastern Ohio...

Up until last week I always ate all of my exercise calories. I wasn't losing hardly any weight and was getting discouraged. SinceI don't have a HRM yet, I decided to change it up and eat only 1/2 of my exercise calories. Last week I lost 1 1/2lbs. I am pretty sure that when I log my exercise the calories were a little…

Same thing happened to me today. I ate dinner at 8pm because I didn't have time to eat earlier and I was starving. I figured it was better to eat my planned meal then to risk a binge later from starvation. I try not to let this happen often.

Good to know that the machines are off sometimes. I just started looking into HRM and I hope to get one soon. I hope the accuracy will help me drop weight quicker.

Is there some type of hummus that is better than others? I tried some for the first time the other day and it was horrible.

You look awesome! Keep up the work....I am sure the scale will move eventually.

I am a working mom as well. I have a husband who works and goes to school and 2 daugthers. My life gets very hectic. My family was kind of used to eating fairly healthy. I have always served vegetables and lean meats. They weren't very prepared for me to take away all the junk food. I make variations of meals to try to…

I always eat all the exercise calories I get, but I am still struggling to lose weight at the rate that I would like to (I want to lose 1-1 1/2lbs. a week and am losing about 1 a month). I was thinking of eating only half my exercise calories to see if that works better for me.

I exercise like crazy, but I haven't been able to get rid of the mommy pooch. I have had to two c-sections. I had so much scar tissue from the first c-section that they had to go in slightly above it for the second one. I had an appendectomy back in September that left two additional scars on my lower abdomin and one in my…

Are you eating your exercise calories?

Congratulations!!!! I can't wait till I hit my goal weight.

Give it time. I have been doing this for a little over a month now and have only lost 1.5lbs. It take a while to get started and get in the groove.

I eat all of my calories and make sure I get a good assortment from the different food groups, and still feel tired sometimes. I have been anemic a part of my life, so I was thinking about have the doctor draw some blood just to make sure that I don't need a supplement again. I would wait a couple more weeks and see if…

I workout a lot and drink about 22oz. during a 60 minute workout depending on intensity. I have to be careful beause if I drink too much, with all the cardio I do, sometimes it feels like it might come back out.

My friend shared a recipe with me that is fabulous. I am at work at don't have it with me. I will try to post the exact measurements later. It is reduced fat peanut butter mixed with fat free cool whip. You put it in mini muffin/cupcake wrappers. Freeze them for at least 1 hour. They are awesome!

Great information! Thanks for sharing.

Everbody struggles sometimes. Just start over again!

I haven't had the same experience, but I can imagine how your daughter is feeling after being through my own tramatic pregnancy experiences. When I was pregnant with my first child, about 5 weeks before I was due, I had sudden onset pre-eclampsia. I just happened to have a doctor's appointment that day and since I had all…

That sounds awesome. I think I will try it this weekend.
