If you put a half cup of orange juice into the pan with the chicken as it roast, it will steam and help keep the chicken moist without adding a sweet taste to the chicken.

So Far: a) I ordered two dresses in my "goal size" and, when they came in two weeks after I ordered them, they fit!! :heart: :smile: B) I've mostly my roommates about my weight loss efforts and when I came home one day, one of my roommate's boyfriend's goes "Hey, I hope you don't get offended, but you look great!"…

Congratulations, I definitely know what it feels like to not have a towel fit....and how good it feels for a towel to fit finally!!!

I bought a button down shirt from J Crew because it was on sale, when I first got it in January it was too tight on the hips for me to even open my suit jacket but yesterday I wore it and fit absolutely fine!

This is amazing! Congratulations!

I took before pics as well and will definitely post at the end of the month

Awesome! Good job!

Congrats, I'm terrified of out door workouts so its good to hear of someone else doing it!

Sugar, fat, salt and carbs are addictive - literally. They alter the way that you're brain works and therefore its in the best interest of the food company try and get you addicted to their products. It's all about money.

I have a large frame and according to charts, anything under 150 would be pushing it for me but I definitely think that it depends on how you carry you're weight.

When I hit 180, I'm getting a tattoo with my sisters and when I hit my ultimate goal of 160, I'm going shopping!

This is amazing, congratulations!

Stretch marks and other scars will always be the bane of my existence but you just have to try and move past it. You are working hard for the body that you deserve, so what if it shows how difficult the journey was?

Don't give up! I lost a lot of weight focusing only on dietary changes but exercising will help with increasing your endurance and helping with blood flow.

When I was larger I focused on exercises that did not hurt me as much - mostly swinging the kettle bell. When done properly, the kettle bell can be a highly effective weight loss tool for the entire body

How much my body has changed. I've always had body image issues and I guess I never truly acknowledged how much my weight had gotten out of control. I look at pictures now and see how badly warped the mental image of myself was as opposed to my actual image. Now I look and can see the changes and I'm really amazed by how…

I generally do it first thing every morning after a bathroom break but I'm hiding my scale for the rest of the month and focusing on more physical changes instead

I'm starting it today as well!

I'm totally in!

I'm 5'5 and have lost 20 lbs since August 2011. I hope to lose another 20. I've plateaued and fluctuated throughout these past few months but its been completely worth it! Im currently trying to work more cardio into my routine but so far I've pretty much been able to lose weight between a combination of strength training…

Clothes, I know people have said it but it is absolutely demoralizing to avoid most stores because you cannot fit anything in them. Dating, putting on weight has made me lose my confidence and that is soooo unattractive. So I'm ready to get back into the dating scene hopefully by this summer with another 5 lbs lost.
