Maybe

side street

I can't believe that so many of you have experienced such negativity from your family and friends. I am sorry. They should be ashamed. Maybe they are jealous or something else psychologically speaking is going on? I don't know but you all have done such an amazing thing changing your lifestyles to reflect a healthier you.…

Yay! Welcome back!

Hi Caitlin. I also am planning to lose 50 pounds. I have had success with this program in the past, though it was thwarted when I started dating someone new :blush: I think the best notion or thought processes I have learned through everything is first to know that this is never going to be easy, it's going to be hard work…

I think you are doing awesome!!! Keep it up.

Awesome!! You look great. Thanks for the motivation with your success!

I would love to join too. I have been going strong with cardio and thought I was doing well with eating the right portions and kinds of foods but am having difficulty with the actual weight coming off. I know what I am doing is sort of working because my body is tighter and my clothes less tight :smile: Rock on!

I weighed last at 203 but I may be heavier after 5 days of no exercise and eating whatever and drinking alcohol while visiting my brothers.

Who doesn't want more motivation and support? ;-)

You can! And you will!

Agreed. Way to go! and good to know!

You look amazing and are such an inspiration! Way to go!

Oh my, I understand your frustration. It seems like every time I hang out with my aunts and cousins they want to get ice cream or cookies and it is soooo hard to turn them down (especially the cookies) when everyone else is eating them. I haven't been able to say no to them yet but I do try for an extra workout to try to…

Ravenclaw please. :happy:

You all look so great! Thank you for sharing. This was the exact kind of motivation I needed today. The progress is so slow for me that I feel that it isn't even working but all of your pics have re-motivated me to stick with it and be patient. Thank you!

It's the whole collective unconscious thing, I think sometimes it's unavoidable. I just wonder about the people who know the trendy names but do it anyway. I guess if they just truly love the name then I can't be mad at them.

How about Micah for her??

One of my neighbours growing up had dogs called Romulus and Remus! I chose names for my girls that aren't that popular. In all my years teaching I've never met a Maya, and I've taught two Zoës. Jack is in the top two most popular names in England, but we love the name, and it's classic and will suit a child and an adult. I…

I have ones I like a lot but when the time comes I will see what the trendy names are to make sure I don't get in on that. I hate trendy names and I don't get the fascination of everyone naming their children the same thing and then spelling them differently to make sure they are different. Who are you kidding? The only…

Hey there. I completely understand where you are coming from. I, too, have a problem with self control at many times. I honestly don't know exactly what to tell you that might be helpful except that for me it becomes easier to manage self control the more I practice it. I have had to eliminate dangerous foods from my…

Hello! I am also looking for new friends and support. I am looking to drop about 50 pounds and am dedicated to using this site to help me understand exactly what I am putting into my body. I want to be healthy and feel great.

Fantastic! You are a true inspiration. Thank you for sharing.

Great advice!

You can do it! I have been working out consistently for about a month now and just started watching my food intake. I am a naturally pretty healthy eater but I think I have been eating bigger portions than I should so I haven't seen any results from my workouts. I just want to keep being motivated and provide motivation to…
