Mike: Thanks for posting this. I have been so tempted to have a "cheat day" but so far I haven't. After reading your post, now I know I won't, at least not for now. I'll save the no counting calories, etc. and drinking for vacation, which isn't until November. Even then, we buy BajaBobs margarita mix for our margarita's in…

Congratulations! So sweet!

Have a great time and be safe! I LOVE Yosemite! Look forward to your photos. We'll be hiking at Montana de Oro this weekend, which is along the coast and minimal elevation change but a beautiful hike. We might have to add some extra hiking to meet your challenge. :-)

Here's a better picture I forgot to add without the big tower in the way.

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing.

Mine's a short hike but within walking distance so we are able to do this one a few times a week. I'm new at hiking so going straight up still kicks my *kitten* but it's gotten easier. LOL The dogs love it too even with their little short legs on the steep areas. Hope this works!

Sounds like someone is jealous of you.... Ignore them! P.S. I took some hiking pics yesterday but forgot to post them...might do that to your hike thread when I get home from work. :-)

bump for later

Wow! You look great and such an inspiration! Thanks for sharing. :smile:

I'll take this group of supporters over the other boards anyday. Too much drama and some nasty *kitten* going on sometimes. They don't want to eat well and not be hungry. What can I say: I'm pretty new here but you guys have been awesome. So to the haters I say:

OMG, I really did LOL! Go Mike!!

Congrats and good for you!!! I too am a believer...and had my whiney days. LOL This morning I was back to the weight when I started EM2WL too and Whew!! what a relief after gaining almost 5 pounds. Hang in there people, it works, it's healthy and we will get there.

Sure, be glad too. You can add the body parts that aren't on there...for all those extra inches. :-)

I have a chart that my friend emailed me to keep track of measuring so I wouldn't get discouraged. It works. :-) If you'd like I can email you the PDF file.

Yay! Thanks for sharing!

Good for you and great to hear! Keep up the good work.

Another option is Netflix if you have that available to you. There are plenty of weights, Pilates, dance, etc. type that are FREE to watch. Good Luck!

Good to hear it's probably OK since you are all still losing. My largest calorie meal is dinner too but trying to spread out the other calories more evenly during the day. :::sigh::: sometimes a challenge. By the time I get home from work, take our walk and then dinner it's already 6 or later. I just want the scale to…

But bottom line is I'm still hanging in there :bigsmile: And I'm sticking to EM2WLbecause: - I cannot deny the energy that I have. -Working out is much more fun when I feel I have the energy to carry me through -I love the extra strength training that I am incorporating -Muscles are popping out in random areas I can see…

Thanks for sharing this article....good info.

Congrats!! Excellent job...

Thanks for the add....like I said I'm a beginner hiker the past few months and we're venturing farther and higher as we go. Here's a photo from a hike a few weeks ago while the hills were still green.

Fabulous news! Good for you! It's good to hear of another success while we follow this journey. Keep up the good work.

Just watched the videos too! You're both great, informative and FUN to watch! LOL I'm pretty much a newbie but loving this so far! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and your support.

Liked!

You are a beauty, inside and out. Congratulations on your success and for living a healthy life. I have no doubt you will hit your goal because you are a strong woman. It is sad how most of the world treats overweight people. Everyone has a story and yours is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing!:flowerforyou:

AMAZING You are truly an inspiration! Congrats! Wow! You have added years to your life. WTG!!
