Wow. I love how you put that: "It may be 80% diet, and 20% exercise, but it’s 100% mental" Thank you, and congrats!!

More info please. 41 now. 2 yrs ago, after boot camp and MFP, lost 30 pounds, now struggling to keep it off. Read a lot about weights - I think my wife and I just need to put it into practice, but need help.

EXACTLY.........PLUS drink: water Water WATER!

VERY much appreciate your story. I have my own journey, but not as severe as what you are in. I'm going to send your testimony to my brother, who is 35, well over 300#, struggled with weight his whole life, and depressed about it. When I lost my weight (only 40#) people started saying "You need to quit losing weight" or,…

Bump - I'm also curious other's results?

That is excellent! Congratulations and thank you for the motivating and informational story!

THAT is awesome. I remember seeing the first one you posted a while back - thanks for the update!!!!

Buuuuummmmmppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for later!

First of all, CONGRATS! We've been watching "Biggest Loser" and it's amazing what a struggle a lifestyle change can be. I am 40 and tomorrow, I will log 365 days in a row on MFP. I've lost the weight I wanted to (40 pounds), but now I'm almost more scared of being able to maintain. When the weight first starts coming off,…

Hey Berry - lost track of you. Congrats! Keep going!!!

THANKS for sharing. Bump for later.

BERRY - Here you go!....sorry it took me forever & a month to post. Hope everything is going well for you and all the "bare belly buddies" out there!

Berry: Sorry, I said I would post, but we've been on vacation - just now home and back to a computer. I've been logging food and exercise off my phone. I promise, once I get photos developed from vacation I will post....even though our vacation was a bit hard on my waistline! ;)

Yeah Berry, way to go! At least you have the nerve to follow through and post like you said you would. What happened to everyone else who said "I'm in" ??!! Here's to a healthy lifestyle, Cheers!

[/quote] Thank you BerryH ,I wasn't sure if I saw much of a difference until I put the 2 pictures together,,thanks for the inspiration to work harder [/quote] Deepend: Hey - what is your workout routine...You're showing me up! I'd like to focus more on upper body, abs, arms....

LOL!!! You go girl! Keep shuffle jogging along with your PMA (Positive Mental Attitude). You made my wife and I laugh and we wish you much success! Stay beautiful and healthy on the inside!

At a water park with the family. I've got some work to do before next month's challenge rolls around!

I'm in. I need the motivation!! :happy:

Here's mine for July - after a jog with my wife and our dog. Sorry, didn't get it added until today!

BUMP to check this out later!

(Quoted): "Anywho, if I was talking about my 18th birthday in 2011 this is what I would've said: "When I turn 18, I'm gonna go to the gas station and buy my first pack of smokes and a lotto ticket. Then, I'm gonna pick out a tattoo and head over to the tattoo shop. YES!!!!" But after I've joined MFP, my whole outlook has…

Bump - apparently everyone forgot??....

I'm in!

Berry: Aqua Blast is basically a water aerobics class, usually using styrofoam "dumbbells" or buoys that serve as resistance doing curls, jumping jacks, etc. The intensity depends on the instructor...sometimes it's geared for ladies who don't want to get their hair wet. Usually, you can modify each exercise to your needed…

Here are mine for June First! No six pack but, much better than I was three months ago!! :glasses:

Well, since we're posting early: I'll post me after the YMCA Aqua Blast class yesterday. Buoys gave me red armpits LOL! No six pack, but much more in shape than I was 3 months ago! :wink:

May God Bless you where you are planted. My advice for what it's worth: Track calories daily - and don't try to eat too few...this will only last temporarily. Exercise regularly. Get enough sleep. Drink water. Seek support (at home, at your YMCA, at Church, on MFP). I pray God grant you the ability and desire to lose the…

A Kansas Husker. LOOOVVVVVVE It! Oh, CONGRATS on your successful weight loss too!! ;)

THANKS to everyone for your ideas and support!!! :wink:
