Happy Birthday! Great work :)

Wonderful progress! And look @ that happy face :) Wishing you all good things in the future!

So sorry for your loss. Sounds like he was a wonderful man :) My thoughts are with you & the family.

I like your style ... "casual day" Sounds good to me +++ some gym/outdoor time :) I'm up 4 lbs since the holidays but it's ok. This is my life, not a diet, and these things are going to happen. Have to work (again) to get it off and that's just how we roll (now)! Good Luck! You CAN do it!

Great progress! Congratulations!

Thanks for sharing & enjoy the new you! You look wonderful :happy:

Coming from someone who knows nothing about nutrition (but has an opinion) I am noticing the "packaged" foods are high in sodium. Would you be able to switch to hard cheese or "homemade" oatmeal with large flake oats? These only take 3 minutes to boil and you can add your own sugar or fruit. Also, I don't see many…

Looking good! So cute in your New Year's dress :) Keep up the good work!

Sounds like you've got a lot going on! Glad to hear you're tackling the weight & health issues. Special congrats on quitting smoking! SO hard to do. I quit CT also. That was 12 years ago. You can do it! Wishing you all the best with the weight loss and obtaining a lifelong healthy lifestyle!

Wow! You are doing SO good! Wonderful results!

Good choice! Welcome "home" :smile:

YES!!! I love supporting my friends and they are always there for me too! When I want to eat something sinful I think about them working hard towards their goals and them expecting the same of me. I don't want to let myself or them down. It helps because God knows I can't be trusted by myself! Cheers to the friends!…

Love your happy face! You've done well & you look fab! Enjoy!

it's a mathamatical calculation. if you go over, you'll gain.

I can totally see your progress! Way to go!

bump - with thanks

Hi ladies! 55 years and going strong! I don't think about my age too much, except when something hurts :) I've been logging on MFP since March and LOVE it! I eat 1200-1500 cals per day, log EVERY day and exercise 2-3 times per week. Mix of weights and cardio. Of course I always aim to do more ... I've lost over 30 lbs and…

Way to go! You look fabulous! :flowerforyou:

Hi, 5'8" here also. Started @ 217, presently @ 183lbs. Been on since March and it's been good. Things are slowing down a bit in the weight loss but I'm still losing (slowly) and that's ok. I'm not in a rush. I eat 1200-1400 per day and (might) eat back a few exercise calories but not all. Depends on the day. I'm also not…

You are not alone. I think those feelings are common. I like what Brad says. Let's ignore the mind and just do what we're doing. We'll get slim and then decide if we like it.

yummy bump

Wow! Big difference! You look in great shape :drinker:

Start Weight : 217 Current Weight : 183 Loss = 34 lbs Usually eat 1200-1350 per day. Do NOT eat back all exercise calories. Overall It's going well, slow and steady. Might go over if weekend parties etc. but try to remember that whatever I eat, I'll have to exercise off again!

Great job! You look wonderful :drinker: Also a SPECIAL shout-out to you for QUITTING SMOKING!!! :smokin: Now you are fabulous inside and out! Good job!

You look amazing! Lovin' the outfit with the boots! Too cute!

Good job! Enjoy the 'new hairs' :flowerforyou:

Wow! Big change :) You look great, keep up the good work!
