From starting weight of 201, I want to lose somewhere between 75 and 85 pounds. Already down 20. I am only 5'1" and am carrying around a lot of extra weight. Oh I am originally from Oregon. I miss it and all my family and friends a lot. I have lived in the deep south though for the last 3 years. Feel free to add me for…

jumper cables have nothing to do with snow. do you mean chains?

I had my first born son when I was 2 months shy of turning 22. Then17 months later I had my second born son. 6 1/2 years after that, at the age of 29 I had my 3rd born, my daughter.

I dont have a bikini. I was bold enough to finally after years and years without a bathing suit buying one last year and going to the pool with the kids. Will post a pic later if you dont mind it being a plus size swimsuit rather than a bikini. Also not sure how to post a pic.

I jog in place in my room with a loud fan on.

I pretty much drink 2-3 cups a day with only 1 teaspoon of sugar free creamer. It helps control hunger. I have cut down a lot though. Before I started MFP I would drink coffee and tea all through out the day and never drink any water, which was probably why I was getting headaches so much, that and my high sodium intake at…

If you live in a state with sales tax your meal is gonna be more expensive. Just saying

I dont ask how to do it. But I do log in cleaning. This is because I absolutely hate doing dishes by hand, and if I get to count it as even a tiny bit of calories burnt, it helps to motivate me to do it. But that is definitely not the only exercise I do. I do jogging and things also.

I hate that one to. They were talking about that on some show I was watching last week. A pound is a pound. It is just that one is denser than the other.

When I make the statement that I am against war, people have jump to the stupid assumption that I must be against our troops also. Nope I am against the dumbass who sent them over to begin with and the person who makes the stupid assumptions based on my beliefs, morals, standards. Ugggh and I get a lot of people shouting…

male genitalia, not attractive in the least, are actually pretty nasty to look at

tribal dragon on upper back right below my neck, a star with skulls in it on my left wrist and a cover up tat on my *kitten* of a red and black star that looks like it was clawed by a tiger (got it to cover up a name on my *kitten*)

I call pretty much all my guy and girl friends hon and I dont see the problem with it. My boyfriend was bothered by it at first but then realized that my attention and love is with him and not other guys. It is just something I have always said to people that I am really close to. Personally I think you need to get over…

Uggggh nasty. There is a restaurant here that has a very popular hamburger that I will never try that is just as gross. It is a burger on served on a Krispy Creme glazed donut. They also serve fried Oreo cookies and fried twinkies there. Talk about unhealthy.

Oh wow I thought I was the only one, makes me feel a bit better. When I first started in April I could only workout doing jogging in place or a fitness video or step aerobics for a total of 2-3 minutes at a time. What I did, was do what I could then rest, then all through out the day when I noticed I had been sitting or…

I used to eat a lot of candy bars. I cut them completely from my life. I make healthier choices now instead. I eat things like Fiber One bars or strawberries with a tablespoon or 2 of the new Philadelphia Indulgence cream cheese that has a touch of chocolate in it. These choices are a lot lower in calories and it makes me…

MFP puts my calorie goal lower than what they say my BMR is. I have trouble getting enough calories and it isnt because I am starving myself that I frequently eat 1200 and under. I am just not hungry. My BMR is 1460 and the calorie goal MFP set is 1335. From my starting weight I had a total of about 80 pounds to lose. I…

eggs are actually very good for you

not bad at all, you are doing good. It has taken me 9 1/2 weeks to lose the 18.6 pounds I have lost

I dont get pimples there but I do get major redness and chafing. Monistat has a ointment that is for chafing that works wonders and dries as a powder.

Age: 33 Height: 5'1" SW: 201 CW: 183.2 GW: right now I have I am thinking somewhere between 115-125 but may want to be even less, will see when I get closer to those numbers

Age:33 SW:201 CW:183.4 GW: for now somewhere between 115-125. I may want to lose more as I get closer to those numbers, will see when I get there

Amazing transformation. Love that you took on a mud race and you did awesome. Also your legs look just fine, very toned. Hope your fracture heals up nice and quickly.

It is your battle scar. I agree with another poster that every scar has a story. I believe that scars make people that much more unique and one of a kind. I to have a scar on my tummy, mine is white though and has pucker spots. I had surgery on my stomach when I was only 1 month old so from then to my current age of 33 it…

Hmmm well I have never owned a dog. Growing up we always had cats. Personally I go by color or other characteristics of the animal. But I have always like the name Chauncey for a male dog for some reason

I totally agree with you. When the weight is off they will think oh I can eat more now and those unhealthy fatty, high sodium food will make them gain the weight all back. It isnt just about losing weight, it is about making a lifestyle change. Without a change you are not going to be very successful.

I am exactly the same, and didnt adopt the thinking till 30's also

Nice Body, but I dont like the outfit at all, especially the shorts. Just my opinion. They look outdated to me

I log everything included my no calorie sweetener
