I know what you mean. My fiance tells me sometimes that "Oh one piece of pizza won't kill you." My immediate reaction is to tell him "I know that, but if I splurge right now I'm gonna want to splurge again." I still wanted him to know, though. Especially since I'm still in college and I only work during the school year, so…

I love pretty much all of the Disney movies, but as far as favorite, I'm gonna have to go with the original masterpiece: Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. You can't fully appreciate that movie until you watch it a zillion times as a kid and then watch it again as an adult.

My favorite lines happen to be from my favorite movie: Citizen Kane Kane: You know, Mr. Bernstein, if I hadn't been very rich, I might have been a really great man. Mr. Thatcher: Don't you think you are? Kane: I think I did pretty well under the circumstances. Mr. Thatcher: What would you like to have been? Kane:…

Ceara 20 1.) I'm terrified of cockroaches. 2.) My favorite animal is the Duck-Billed Platypus 3.) My favorite movie is Citizen Kane 4.) I'm engaged to my high school sweetheart 5.) I'm going to school to be a Counselor for teenagers

I had a friend in high school (he was a guy) come up to me and say, "Are you pregnant?" Of course I said no, and he replied, "You look like it." He wasn't being a jerk or anything. He was kind of like me in that he has no brain-mouth barrier. It was a big stab at my self esteem, so I can imagine how you felt. But judging…

I rarely miss days on MPF, and I love people, so feel free to add me as well. I only let myself go above 1500 calories once a week, which is my splurge day. But sometimes I don't even splurge on that day. It all depends. Anyway, add me if you are so inclined. :heart:

Well, you shouldn't do anything you think might discourage you. I hardly ever weigh myself. In fact, I had been exercising for upwards of 5 weeks before I weighed myself the first time. And I haven't weighed myself since then (and it's been another 5 weeks :D) It all depends on your own views. If you're afraid it might…

I lost 10 lbs in a month just keeping myself between 1200 and 1500 calories a day and doing exercise videos 3 times a week. It's different for everyone, I realize, but I believe you can definitely lose 53 lbs by then, maybe even more if you want to. :)

All of them. I haven't had a candy bar in months, and the only chocolate I get is from granola bars and sugar free klondike bars. I can't even stand the idea of eating a candy bar right now. Donuts, however. Those are a temptation I find very difficult to avoid. Luckily, I haven't given in yet. I allow myself to have…

Thanks everyone. I'll try changing it up like you guys said. That may be my problem. I only have one workout video, and doing the same thing all the time gets boring. I can walk around my home town with no fear of being kidnapped XD so maybe I could try that. To answer previous questions: no, there are no running/racing…

I'm gonna guess around 2.5 years. We started dating at the beginning of my sophomore year of high school and got engaged at the end of my senior year. So yeah, that sounds about right.

Congrats. You're making great progress. Yeah I agree with you. I try to avoid the scale at all costs and just keep up the diet and exercise. If I checked the scale all the time I'd lose my nerve. Just keep doing what you're doing and just check the scale when you're ready.

You look amazing. Congratulations.

Kudos to you. You've made great progress so far. I hope to see more posts from you. Seeing success stories makes me more motivated to succeed. :)

Looking good.

Congratulations. I'm happy you were able to reach your goal. I hope I can stay as motivated as you. :)
