You have worked SO hard...and what terrific results! You look like a new person and it must feel fantastic. Wow...you look amazing!!!! I loved the way you composed your post and progress. It was so nice to read. Rock on! :happy:

It's time to bust out my Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred today and get back at it after reading this thread and all of your amazing results. I know I can get through this 20-30 minutes, even if I am not a big exercise lover and have become somewhat sedentary over the years. I just know it's imperative if I want what I want…

It's an unequivocable 'Do It' for me then! Busting out the sports bra and shorts after this post. - take complete measurements first and start a committed daily weight loss journal in a notebook and here on MFP. I have this thing about notebooks. - figure out the self-timer on my new camera to try to get some full body…

I'm in my early 50's so I have a few decades to deal with. Lol. Q. Were you always overweight? A. No. I was a tall, slender, lanky girl for many years until my mid 30's. I was one of those people who could eat and never really gain too much. I thought my thighs were fat though at our wedding when I was 120 pounds soaking…

I can so relate to that, twixlepennie. I am proud to say afterward that I had lost 50 lbs, but at the time of losing, I just wanted to do things quietly so that any failure wouldn't come back to bite me. Of course, I was asked "Wow, you look so much different...are you OK?" or "I never realized you were chunky before you…

I have Hashi's, and I swear I gained 20 lbs. in a month which is when I got my first diagnosis in the early 2000's. I was told it's menopause...get used to it. I knew it was an unusual feeling and I pushed for proper diagnosis. The good doc put me on Synthroid (a synthetic T-4) which made me feel so much worse. I had given…

I think the outfit looks great! I'd hike up the skirt though, to show off your perfectly fine legs, and from the words of Stacey London and Clinton Kelly, maybe do a dressier sandal that doesn't cut off your great legs with the ankle strap feature, but a more open and strappier sandal that lengthens anyones legs…

Yes...^^^^^^^^ this. I also take a high quality probiotic that I get at a good health food store that really helps the gut flora and puts things back into balance. The good Acidophilus/Bifidus probiotics are always refrigerated and are much better concentration of beneficial, good bacteria than the low amount you'll get in…

I know this is an older thread, but I was searching for TJ inspiration again and found this. This is my story as well. I did SO well on TJ about 3 years ago and really enjoyed it, and I'd never felt more fit or healthy in my life. I rarely missed a scheduled workout. I also walked about 3-4 miles 2-3 times a week, no…

In your initial post, it was quite a build up to what you had accomplished and I was waiting in anticipation to see the pics you posted. I was expecting a major transformation and you DELIVERED!!!!! Wow, you look amazing! You must be SO proud of yourself. You deserve it!

You've worked SO hard and have just done fantastic. You deserve to be very proud. Ironically, I was just looking for a knee support I'd bought a few years ago to restart today and then I read your post. Did you modify your moves at all like some of us that have a slightly bothersome knee like I had to do? I just loved…

Wow! You are such an inspiration - you've been through so much. So sorry for the loss of your beloved child. Heartbreaking. May I ask how tall you are? Our age and weight stats are similar and I'd like to know besides loving walking, if there were any other at home fitness programs you got into. I need to stop smoking as…

You'll do it! I'm not one for resolutions, but I want to be 20 lbs. lighter by March and quit smoking. Been wanting both for some time now. Working on my before photos in a day or 2 and trying to log into MFP every day for inspiration.

This is an older thread, but I so have to bump this! SO inspiring!! Taking my befores for sure before I get off my butt and get moving.

The Ex is an Ex for a reason. Why should he care, other than to boost his ego?

A dozen or so years ago during my WW journey, I had the best support ever from my spouse. He had some weight to lose, but didn't want anything to do with joining with me for his health...but greatly supportive of my efforts. I respected his choice and he respected mine. After 50 lbs. down at a nice healthy weight, several…

I just bought the 30 day Shred and am excited to try it. Very inspiring photos! Thanks and great job :D

Thank you! I've made a version of this with an assortment of whatever beans I have in the pantry. I'm going to make this one tomorrow.

Thanks for your inspiration, Andrea! You are doing terrific. Picture 33 - 1 lb blocks of butter lined up that you don't have to carry around anymore and keep up with your hard work! Way to go :)

Wow...you are such an inspiration to me! I swear I could have written that same story, as our stats and story are almost identical, even down to a striped shirt you're wearing that I also own! 12 years ago, I was in the same boat and a friend hauled me off to Weight Watchers as her buddy. My goal was 155, but I ended up at…

I had that happen when my thyroid was calving and I was going through a stressful time in my life. I got to a dermatologist right away and she gave me cortisone shots in the bald spots with no guarantees. Fortunately we caught it quick enough and the hair grew back. Best of luck to you. It feels pretty horrible to see…

I always ordered the Chicken fajitas, but they took them away in my region. Low in fat..probably wicked sodium though!
