You are a wonderful inspiration for those of us who are at the beginning of their journey. I am sorry you lost your brother, its a terrible loss especially for someone so young. I'm absolutely sure he would be so proud of you and your accomplishments! Thankyou for sharing your story and best wishes for your continuing…

Hi, I'm 36, soon 37 -feel free to add me :-)

Hi, I'm no longer breastfeeding, and held off on losing weight until now for that very same reason :-) My little boy is 6 months and has been on solids for about 2 months now!! But its a good message for any breastfeeding mothers out there.

Its wonderful to see success in such a visual way :-) thanks for the inspiration and well done! Keep hitting those goals- am so sure you will !!!

Am a bit late to this thread, but I'm just starting over at 1200cal after having my baby and planning for a wedding this year! I am 5'3'' . I will set my diary to public, feel free to add me- I welcome any tips, encouragement and help I can get!!! We can SO do this :-) It is easier with like-minded folks, though!

Congrats and thanks for sharing!! Its encouraging to hear success stories like yours and know that goals over 50 lbs are attainable! :-)

Hi! I'd love to join in, but no pedometer as yet! Great idea, by the way :happy: i'll post from tomorrow!

Wow, you are a darling! Thank you..if only there were more people like yourself about the place! :flowerforyou:

Hi! I love my Kindle, too- being a voracious reader, i can plough through a book in a few hours- so on holidays I love it now that i don't end up with like, 10 books to take home with me! Too much luggage... ( Mind you, i do miss that fresh "book smell", I wonder if amazon can incorporate that into the kindle somehow?…

Hey, we could be triplets!! :happy: add me if you like, I need all the support I can get!! Age: 35 CW: 213 GW: shooting for between 115-130 (healthy BMI range) Height: 5'3" A really fun idea!

You are a true inspiration, thanks so much for sharing your story and I am positive you will reach all your goals-well done on an amazing loss so far!!!:drinker:

wow, you look fantstic, great job!!!!:flowerforyou:

Wow, that would be very organised and great! Thanks for putting that together- should we just pm our email to you? I will be on holidays from Monday the 18th (in Prague, yay!) so it will be a challenging first week....but not impossible! Lots of walking and sightseeing so the 30mins excercise won't be a problem. Keeping…

I'm in! It's a very do-able and sensible challenge :smile: I have no idea how we could track this though!

You look great, well done and thanks for the inspiration! :-)

what a great idea!! thanks for the post :-)

Wow, congrats on the success! :smile: I have just read "The 4 hour body " and I highly reccommend this book to anyone interested in improving their health and well- being. Its refreshing to read a book where a lot of info is presented in a really straightforward fashion, unembellished and simply put :smile: I am sure there…

BellaCoconut....two of my boyfriend's nicknames for me combined- Bella short for Belinda, Coconut cause i'm a bit crazy sometimes.....:bigsmile:

Fantastic!! you look incredible, and i bet you feel it too :) thanks for the inspiration!!

Tea, tea, tea! :drinker: ......or if you don't like tea try a low cal hot chocolate or herbal tea....or just sipping water with a dash of lemon! also ...i love the dance party idea!:happy:

hehehe....I think the note idea is cute! :smile: but I really think that you should just tell him! :flowerforyou:

Wow, you are truly an inspiration!! Thankyou so much for posting your pic :flowerforyou:

I am reaaaaly terrible at drinking water, but it helps to have a jug of water at hand at home, so I get a visual reminder to drink, even if its only in the evenings, i get a few glasses in!:drinker:

wow, you look fantastic , all of that hard work has really paid off! Congrats!!:smile:

I totally agree with above comment, keep the fridge and cupboard free of junk, sweets ...maybe even the peanut butter :wink: A tip i have heard of is if you must have snacks about the place, put them inside brown paper bags- out of sight, out of mind! Also, you could have snacks in one specific place, say an opaque plastic…

You look great!! well done, am sure you will reach your goal, you have done amazingly so far!!:wink:

I'm in!!! I have already begun to stop eating after 7.30, so this will keep me motivated!! Great thread, by the way, I think its a definite challenge for many! :smile:

Wow, you look terrific! and I must say, much happier!! Good on you!:flowerforyou:
