I think the food plan comes separately, but I'm not sure. My mom just gave me the DVD the other day.

I eat what I want regardless of what it is. I just eat smaller portions of things that aren't as healthy. You can add me if you wish. I'm always looking for new friends. :happy:

My two hometowns aren't on that list, but I'm closest to Indianapolis, so I guess I'm up there.

Don't listen to the "fads". There is no miracle fix. The best way to lose weight is to watch your food and exercise as much as you can. I hope you are able to complete your goal. :smile:

I know you don't want to hear it, but the best way to get rid of the bad effects of smoking is to quit smoking.

I am a full blown gay marriage supporter. I have several friends who are gay, and I was raised to be accepting of everyone regardless of religion, sexual orientation, race, gender, etc. I was also introduced to a transgender man when I was a teenager. I still see "her" from time to time. I put the " " because "she" hasn't…

Honey, 1 inch in 2 weeks is pretty damn good. It's taken me upwards of five months to get from a size 16 to a size 12. Don't make your expectations too high. Losing weight takes time and a lot of patience. Have your husband hide the scale from you, and not let you have it for a couple of months. Then check your weight.…

Lookin' good. If you weren't married the women would be attacking you. :laugh:

Wow. You are truly inspiring. To have made it this far is an accomplishment you should be very proud of. Good luck with the rest of your journey and I sincerely hope you reach the goal you want. :)

Since I am in college and I eat primarily food that the cafeteria cooks, I try to eat enough so that I NET 1500 calories. If I try to net more than that I get scared that I'm eating too many calories. At least if I'm misjudging the amount of calories I'm eating, I'll have a bit of wiggle room that way.

If you're going to suggest banning all of the men who have reached their goal, why aren't you suggesting banning the women who have completed their goal? I know why. You want to be noticed, and you want to ogle all of the pretty women. Plus, the people who have completed their goal give those of us who haven't completed it…

I know how that feels. At first no one would support me either. You can add me to your friends list of you wish. I'm always open to new friends and I will pretty much talk to anyone. I'm also told I'm a pretty good motivator. :happy:

I would absolutely be a surrogate mother for someone. I've never been pregnant before, but if a couple I knew really well asked me I would do it. In fact, with as many gay friends as I have, I'll probably wind up being a surrogate one day. I don't think I could do it for a random stranger, though. And if my fiance wasn't…

I don't see any reason why you shouldn't wear a bikini. You look hoooot. Congratulations.

I tried putting on my old prom dress, and it fits perfectly. That means I'm back to the same size I was when I was a sophomore in high school. I also put on a pair of size 13 jeans (I used to be a 16), and I have NO MUFFIN TOP! WOOT!

Yay you! *Virtual hug* You've made some amazing progress. :)

Awesome! You've taken a big step. Keep it up. :)

Omg! I just found an old smoothie blender in the back of my cabinet that I didn't even know I had, and I've made 3 kinds of smoothies so far. I'd be more than happy to tell you how I made them. Now before I tell you, just keep in mind that I am obsessed with Strawberry Banana smoothies of any kind. :laugh: Okay, my first…

I can't say I know how you feel because I never had anyone out right call me fat. I guess the guys were too busy looking at my DDs and the girls were all too scared of me (I had a bigger build than most of the girls I went to school with). But I know that us women love to hate on each other. Just the other day my…

Omg! I want to be you right now. I've wanted to meet Linda Blair since she scared the crap out of me with "The Exorcist". You are the luckiest person in the world.

I have a nomination. Can't post a picture of him, but I vote for fhsjewfro. He has a thread on success stories. Check him out.

For me, if I make a hard-boiled egg I won't eat the yolk because I don't like the dry consistency it has. I'll just eat the white and give the yolk to my mom. If I cook the egg any other way I'll usually eat the yolk. I'm sure there is some nutritional or medical reason others don't eat the yolk, but it's just taste…

I can't really afford it right now, but if I could I would get the vanilla flavored kind and, get some low fat vanilla ice cream, and make a protein milk shake. XD

There's a "Recipe" tab where you can take a bunch of ingredients and put them together to have a quick thing to click on. I did that for my low calorie spaghetti and nachos recipe as well as my fruit smoothies. It's a lot easier than clicking on ever single ingredient every time. :happy:

I'm not someone who can just go to the gym and exercise. I'm too self-conscious. So I bought a boot camp DVD and the instructor, Suzanne Hitzman, is a really good motivator. If I was to become confident enough to go to the gym, I'd just bring my MP3 player and some headphones. That's plenty of push for me.

That's great! I've been trying really hard to get some muscles in my arms. I have biceps so far, but my triceps are still wiggly. :sad: Kudos to you for overcoming the tricep wiggle. :happy:

*whistles* You make me jealous. Time to go lift some weights. :laugh:

You are looking amazing. Truly inspiring to everyone here.

Wonderful progress. I can't wait to see your after pics. :happy:
