My daughter has had this for 3 days!! Not fun at all.

BEAUTIFUL! Congratulations. You are inspirational to me. I started at 251 and need to get to 145-150 but have been stuck in the high 160s for months and months. Thanks for sharing you look so lovely!!

WAY TOO SOON FOR ZUMBA OR ANYTHING ELSE!! Maybe--and I mean maybe---very very slow walking. Most drs advise NOTHING not even casual walking for exercise for 6 weeks minimum. Your body needs to heal. PLEASE don't do zumba or anything else for a long while. There's plenty of time to get in shape after you are completely…

I lost 81 lbs in less than 6 months, and I never ate back my exercise calories. When I did, I didn't lose weight. I stuck to 1200 calories per day, no matter what.

I have been a binge eater as well in the past, and I still struggle with it. Cakes and cookies and bread are my triggers. I do it far less often now, but it still happens occasionally. I DO have will power, or I wouldn't have lost 81 lbs without any drugs or appetite suppressants--through diet and exercise ONLY...BUT I…

Burned 615 calories jogging 5 miles first thing this morning...even though the weather was awful, it was the worst part of TOM, and I had tons of work "hanging over my head".

i lost 81 lbs eating 1200 calories a day. i burned about that much per day (1200 calories) in exercise five days a week. i've never felt better. no starvation mode for me. over 7 months now. there were days when i was over, but i always just climbed back on the wagon. it worked for me.

Congratulations!!! So very very proud of you. You look wonderful and are an inspiration to all of us.

I'm 36, lost 81 lbs since June 2012, and have 21 lbs left to go till my goal. I'm also in Texas, feel free to add me!

Where to begin? 80 lbs down, the NSVs are huge for me and are my motivation to keep going. Can wear jeans from 13 yrs ago before I had my first child. I can see my collarbones again. I can run for five miles and it's easy. Before I couldn't run at all not even one single minute. I can see definition in my arms and stomach…

I just turned 36.

Searunner 21?

36 yrs old so thanks

Wow incredible loss MochaMix! Congrats!

If you're 100% committed to staying with him, no matter what, then you need to get used to hearing that...and probably worse...if that's how he is, it is very very unlikely he will ever ever change...so you better be ok with it.

I have my own business and work from home. This is a huge part of why I got 100 lbs overweight over the last several years. Inactivity. I bought a fitbit ultra in June when I began losing weight. First goal was 10,000 then I went up to 15,000 and then 20,000 as I lost a lot of weight and began to run. I've lost around 80…

Feel free to add me. I'm 5'9" 36 yr old mom of 2, started at 251 lbs with 102 lbs to lose for ultimate goal of 149 lbs and have lost 83 since June 16, with 20 more lbs to go. Have been stuck for the past month at around 168 lbs and need help to finish this off. Would be happy to share what has worked for me so far. I lost…

would love to join! thanks so much!

PLEASE tell me this is a joke...if not, omg and SHUT UP dude

Me me me! Total workaholic. Started my own online business 9 years ago. Work anywhere from 60 to 100 hours per week. Lots of stress, lots of pressure. I blame this in large part for my weight problems over the years. Very sedentary, way too many hours spent sitting at the computer. My business was very very successful.…

Did the Atkins diet once. 30 carbs per day. Lost 50+ lbs in 3 1/2 months. Started gaining it all back 3 months later. Then gained even more. Did NOT work for me. It will get the weight off, but then it is not sustainable. To this day, I cannot look at an egg without cringing. I ate so many eggs. And this was ten years…

PLEASE try this again the natural way! NO DRUGS!!! Diet and exercise and MFP logging DO work. It is just HARD work. Drugs are a 'quick' easy fix and the weight almost always comes back. Please don't risk your health by taking a drug to lose weight. I have lost 82 lbs with no drugs, only diet and exercise, in 5 1/2 months.…

So very very happy for you from the bottom of my heart! You have overcome so much!!! That 23 minute mile means a huge deal!!

Don't think 20 lbs is doable for me in 3 1/2 weekseven 10 will be a very big challenge---but 10 will be my goal! SW:251 (6/16/12) CW:170 New Year's Goal: 160

Banish Fat Boost Metabolism is in my experience her BEST DVD for weight loss. I did it for 3-4 months 4 to 5 days a week. I lost 81 lbs in just over 5 1/2 months and this workout was one of the major reasons why. I cannot recommend it highly enough. It will give you a HUGE calorie burn.

If you want serious results, do them six days a week with only one day off. They are so short this is absolutely critical, especially if this is the only exercise you are doing. I did these 6 days a week for months and had very positive results.

I eat spinach tamales made with no lard from Texas Tamale Company (they have a website or are available in frozen section of many grocery stores). This combined with grapes or cutie oranges or apples. Almost every.single.day. I am a creature of habbit! My dinners vary but not my lunch.

Yes, get it! I got a fitbit ultra and it changed my life literally. 80 lbs down in 5 1/2 months. All I do is eat 1200 calories a day and walk walk walk (well now I run run run, but was too heavy for that for most of that 5 1/2 months). I wear the fitbit every single day.
