  • I wouldn't have lost 79 pounds without Billy Blanks..he is my hero! I have the "ultimate Tae Bo" workout- it's 58 minutes long and has a 25 minute 'fat blaster' extra workout. I've been doing this workout dvd for about 5 months and to this day, I sweat like crazy and can't even do all the moves. It's an amazing workout and…
  • I've struggled with losing weight my entire life- I finally decided enough was enough and got serious about it. For me, I have to be very strict with my diet and I have to workout a lot if I want to see good results. When I first started out, I could only walk about 5 minutes before getting winded. So, I did this several…
  • Being fat my entire life, I've had many cruel and insentive things said or done to me, becuase of my weight. One time when I was flatting with people who I didn't know very well, they ordered KFC and when it arrived, they handed me a diet pepsi, just assuming that since I was fat, I should be drinking diet pop. Everyone…
  • I've lost 79 pounds and still need to lose 100-110 more. Anyone can add me- I don't have any rules or regulations for being my friend- we're all in this together, afterall :smile:
  • Usually, my cheat days consist of my regular, healthy meals and then a good amount of chocolate! But, every now and then, I make a roast beef dinner, with both mashed potatoes and fried potatoes with cheese sauce, all sorts of veggies, heaps of gravy, dinner rolls and cheesecake for dessert. I only do this once every…
  • I have a mannequin torso that hangs on my bedroom wall. I keep a dress or top on it that I want to wear when I reach my weight loss goal. I change the article of clothing around, just to remind me of all the lovely, new items I will be able to wear when I am thin.
  • I'm 37- but age is just a number, right? I eat 1100- 1300 calories a day and workout everyday. I am 5ft 2 and still have about 100 pounds left to lose. I can honestly say that I feel so much better on 1200 calories than I ever did eating 4,000 plus calories a day. I don't have indigestion anymore, no trouble sleeping, and…
  • Typically, no. If it's a special occasion or a holiday, I might dip into my workout calories, but even when I do, I never eat them all back.
  • I started my weight loss journey on November 1st, 2011. I started at 310 pounds and was at 260 pounds by Feb.20th I've lost an additional 29 pounds since then. Typically, I stay between 1100 and 1300 calories a day. In the beginning, I couldn't workout for longer than 15 minutes without feeling sick. I often went several…
  • My cat Willow. She loves sleeping in cardboard boxes, so she has one that sits right next to me and she sleeps in it every night. I also have various stuffed animals, three pillows, two blankets, a notebook and pen, my cell phone, chapstick, scissors and/or knife and a pocket mirror.
  • Mine is boring but I never feel like I am 'starving'. Breakfast: 2 cups of special K red berries cereal with 1/2 cup skim milk Lunch: 3oz grilled boneless, skinless chicken breast 1 carrot 1 cup green beans 1 teaspoon olive oil Dinner: same as lunch Snack: 1 cup of fruit of my choice 10 glasses of water throughout the day…

  • I'm 37 :)
  • I workout in the comforts of my own living room. I also have a nice sized back yard and go for walks around the property.
  • Just about everything I used to eat was terrible, as well as the portion size. I loved to bake and it wasnt uncommon for me to bake 4 dozen chocolate chip cookies and eat them all within a day's time. Same thing with brownies. I'd even make apple pie and devour the entire 9 inch pie myself. Dinner was always something very…
  • If I work really hard, I can lose 15 pounds a month. I've lost 7 pounds so far this month and hope to double that before the month is over. For me, the more I workout, the more I lose. My body responds really well to working out, but not so much to just eating less.
  • Hi Jenn and everyone else :) This is such a wonderful site with a lot of great people and support. I still have 100 pounds more to lose and I am always more than happy to accept any friendship requests. We're all in this together :)
  • I quit smoking the same day I started the beginning of my weight loss journey. It was very hard! I can say that within a month, I didn't even miss smoking and now the thought of starting up again, doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. My breathing was so bad when I first started exercising, due to my size and how messed…
  • When I first started out, I had 170 pounds to lose, and I used to think, "what's the point?" I never thought I'd be able to lose that much weight. Now, I have less than 100 pounds to reach my goal. Sure, that's still a lot of weight to lose, but the point is- you CAN do it. Yes, it takes hard work- losing any amount of…
  • I am 37 years old and 5'2" SW: 310 pounds (before I joined MFP) CW: 232 pounds GW: 130 pounds
  • I have a cup of grapes everyday and usually about 30 blueberries daily as well. I also eat pineapple and peaches- but I don't usually exceed two cups of fruit a day.
  • BMR: 1,691 Daily Goal: 1220-1300 MFP gives me around 2,000 extra calories a day for exercise, but I don't eat them back.
  • I eat three meals a day and have fruit for a snack, once a day. I also have chocolate most days- even if just one piece :)
  • I have another 110 pounds to lose. Anyone can add me as a friend :)
  • I used to drink 2-4 liters of pop a day. I would wake up and get myself a glass of pop and drink glasses of pop throughout the entire day. While most people keep a glass of water on their nightstand, I had a glass of pop! I quit cold turkey. It was hard the first couple weeks- but, I drank an enormous amount of water and…
  • I've been dealing with depression on and off my entire life. I've been medicated since Jan. 2011. I was doing well until October of last year when some personal matters hit me hard. Since Then, I have my moments- and some days I just want to stay in bed and give up. But, then I look at how far I've come since then and…
  • I take a multi vitamin. I also take a hair, skin and nails supplement- my skin is good, but my hair is a mess and my nails are very brittle. That's all I take, aside from my antidepressant :)
  • You're ALL sexy! I'm sexy because I have nice lips, big, brown eyes and red hair. I also have a husky voice, which men seem to love. I have an awesome personality, great sense of humor and love life. I'm also really, really good in bed- that's kinda sexy, right? haha.
  • I spent 10 years with a guy who put me down all the time. His nickname for me was 'fat queen', because, according to him, all I did was sit on my fat a** and eat. Anytime I did lose a little weight, he would say he didn't notice any difference. Even worse, he would bring me home junk food, knowing I was trying to lose…
