Ummmm, Thank you!!!!:flowerforyou:

Hello, My name is Carmen and I'm 41, married and we have a teenage daughter. I am a registered nurse and I live in Louisiana. I started out at 455 lbs, I am currently 272 lbs with an 8 week goal of 20 lbs. I love Zumba and I am very excited to participate in this challenge and look forward to getting to know each of you!

Well, there are so many things that I could say to answer that question, but one thing that's working for me now, is persistence and not being afraid to modify when it becomes necessary. I actually had weightloss surgery last year in August and that has played a major part in my weightloss, however, I know that not…

I'm very excited about the challenge! This will honestly be my first time measuring...I have always relied on the scale, which isn't always good. I welcome the change and offer my support to all of you!

You look great! Doesn't really look like the same person at all!!!! Congratulations on your success and thanks for sharing!

I would like an invite please!

Absolutely, I can definitely see a difference in your face!!! I'm the same way with the full body pics, but believe me, your weightloss is very noticeable. Keep up the HARD work!

I still have around 100lbs to lose and after I've lost as much as I have, things have really slowed down for me. So I definitely can use the support and am here to give you the same!!! For me, I contribute…

Congratulations on your success, you look absolutely beautiful and that body is banging!!!

I was told by my physician to use Whey Protein, I've been using the GNC pro performance unflavored and I add it to chilli, soups, etc, but now that the weather is warming up, I've been adding it to cold smoothies. One of my pals recommended the Syntrax Nectar protein...that's on my list to buy next. Good Luck!

Yes, it was with my cousin, eeewww!!!

Looking pretty Hot!!! Job well done!!!

Well, Thank you!!!! I think we should stroll away singing "Ebony and Ivory live together in perfect harmony"........:bigsmile:

Okay, let me choose my words very carefully here.....I think that the idea black men prefer their women with curves and white men prefer their women skinny is a backwoods, stereotypical generalization...simply put. However, in my opinion, there are some cultural truths involved. I don't think that the majority of the black…

#2 is my favorite because of the color, I love it!!! And it does enhance your lady lumps very nicely! My second fave is #3, it's very cute as well and would look the best with the boots!

Well said! Now there's gonna be a freedom of speech thread popping up!

No Tattoo's (I'm chicken!) I think they are absoulutely beautiful!!!
