pass, but if I went that way, totally date!

Hey! I have the same problem as you, well almost, I don't have children so I have no "excuse" to ever eat carbs; but I have a hard time staying away from the bread etc. What I would look into if I were you, were basic recipies for non-carb bread, pasta etc. If you can switch it out and you or your daughter can't even…

I think this is reeeeally individual, so you will get a lot of different answers. Personally I have lost 33 lbs now and not a single pants size - all of my weight lost have been around my waist/back/upper body. I have been able to go down one entire cupsize and can fit into dresses/tops I couldn't before, but not pants.…

When I step on the scale in the morning and I have gas, I always weigh more, because there's extra air inside me and it weighs more on the inside than out. Don't weigh yourself until you've farted a few times, and never trust the scale nor the "calories" (what a hoax!) in your food.

Thanks guys, added you all:)

I'm getting tons of support from my boyfriend, my family lives in another country (moving back in a short while though) and my friends are all supportive and cheering me on. The one place though, where I spend a lot of time and give a lot of myself is work, and I don't (ever) feel any support of any kind in any way (not…

As long as you feel like its worth it and you can work with the calories, I think you should enjoy yourself and the time you have together with your gf:)

I'd like to be held accountable too, but I do see that most of the people on here that I am friends with, is doing this quite differently than me. I am really trying to eat -different- foods, lots of proteins and no more white bread, pasta and sugar. Not only to lose weight, but because these types of food makes my stomach…

None of the 4 people I know who have had weight loss surgery has gained weight again - all of them have stayed thin. The last of them had their surgery 2 1/2 years ago, the first had hers 8-9 years ago. I mean, surgery, that's a pretty serious (and final) step in my eyes, and here in Norway it's not something you just do.…

The problem with your answer here isn't that you claim 1200 calories is too little for -everyone- (newsflash, BMR varies for everyone!) it's that you think the OP claims she is working out several times a week as well as eating 1200 calories like you did, which is potentially harmful to your body and yes, pretty stupid.…

LOTR-landscape! or the moon! although that's not a person:/

4.43 pm - 900 calories:) Got dinner left, about 600 calories and I'm just at my daily goal:)

judging by your profile pic; the next Lara Croft! WOW, you look great! :) Edit: meant that for Canelly, was just not fast enough to post. Sorry!

Really? You're on MFP and you still think muscle weighs "significantly" more than fat. Based on what? 1 lbs muscle and 1 lbs fat weighs the same. The VOLUME is different though. You should read about this before you try teaching it out to people who are desperate to see change. Telling people they're not losing weight…

I started it and did it for 5 days straight and just wanted to die, lol. But I'll try to get back on it!! Level 1... :P She gets kinda annoying somehow ;D

I need to lose about 100 lbs, maybe a little more. This was really inspiring, thank you. Gonna go over all the text, just had to look at the amazing pictures first. Hope I'll get there someday too!

Wow. That video literally made me cry. Very inspiring:)

You're right, it's not a competition. I just wanna win anyway! Lol. It's crazy, I know. And like someone else pointed out, guys lose easier, I know this. I still have the urge to lose more.. I secretly like it when he eats a cinnamon bun for dessert and I don't, because then maybe, just maybe, I'll lose more than him.…

Yeah I think you're right. I've talked to my boyfriend about it, he thinks I should too. Considering I've been down that road with eating disorders before, I think it would be a good thing to maybe just get some things off my chest and get some advice on how to cope from a professional. Even when I lose weight now, it's…

Thank you, this does really make it feel better. I try to look at the success stories on here too, there are so many amazing people out there. Still, I have that annoying little grinch inside me that says "they did it because they worked hard, you on the other hand, will never do this". It's rare that I listen..but some…

It really is. Do you ever get impatient, though? I just feel like .. I can't explain - my boyfriend and I are both trying to lose weight, me 3 times as much as him. We eat the same food, thus we both lose weight - still for the past 2-3 weeks he's lost just as much/more than me. I eat less and work out more and end up with…

I'm gonna make sure all my pics are nudes once I get skinny. No, not really. But I would probably be wanting to show off as well:)

Wow, you are an amazing inspiration! I'm so impressed by what you've done, you have no idea. Like others here say, you look like a completely different person:O How does it feel, accomplishing all this? :)

Good luck!:) You can definitely do it!
