great work!

Hang out... and you're Not my type... since I'm not really into girls. :D lol

I agree with this. :) Do what you like doing because some exercise is better than no exercise and if it's enjoyable you'll do it more often. I don't particularly enjoy cardio. That's just me. I do SOME cardio for heart health, but I don't like it. LOL I like strength training so that's what my main focus is on. I am…

@emaren fun loving! like the shades and great smile!

@vice you look to be a bit of a bad boy.

@jonesingmucho pretty smile!

hair and eyes normally but here lately i get a lot of comments about my "coke bottle" shape.

<--- this person has lost 126lbs and plan on losing another 20 without surgery. :)

and i can't get the sizing right on my picture... LOL but you are free to look at my profile. my pics should be open to everyone.

i haven't hit goal yet. i'm only about 20lbs away though. I am only 5'6" but aiming for around 160lbs. :) i am pretty pear shaped, but to be honest i like my curves and i love the way i look right now.

to chime in with all the others... i don't follow any special diet. i take it day by day. eat what i like and what i want within reason and exercise. :)

@jeepy the shy/quiet and intelligent type.

THAT I can not do sir... LOL I don't think my husband would appreciate it much. :tongue:

No big bones here. Just big butt and thighs. :bigsmile:

Pretty much. :) That being said, I don't lift "heavy", but I was doing p90x (so a lot of using my own body weight for certain exercises and weights) and I am much happier with how my body looks now than I was when I started and I am not much lighter on the scale. It doesn't bother me THAT much because I am happy with how…

You have seriously done an absolutely amazing job. I know that at the time when the co-worker brought it up it seemed rude and seriously... that would have pissed me off way back when I started as well (lol), but thankfully you saved that little piece of paper and took control! You look wonderful! Keep up the hard work and…

i eat cucumbers dipped in a ketchup and mayo mixture. i also eat my hotdogs, fries, etc that way usually. and like someone else here, i eat salt on watermelon... my husband thinks i'm disgusting. LOL

that. i don't care if someone else wants to be naked. i just choose to keep my nakedness for my husband. :)

You are doing a wonderful job! Keep it up!

Agree. She won't care if you spend anything if she's worth the time. :) I like the picnic idea and the dinner at your place (although I would be happy with a pizza and a movie on the sofa... that's just me though. LOL)

I always say it's more motivating to see how far you come rather than how far you have left to go. ;) My heaviest weight was 304lbs so that's what I have on my profile. I started MFP just a few lbs under that, but it doesn't change the fact that I did start my official "weight loss journey" at 304. :)

YES! You could totally pull that off! I haven't seen Brave yet. lol

@lauramac i think you should be rapunzel. i like disney. LOL

You lost all over. Your waist, hips, thighs... all smaller. Don't be so hard on yourself. You lost evenly which is awesome! You look fantastic!

I try to. :) Usually I get it in, but there are days I don't. On the days I do, I am not AS hungry. ;)

Eh. I'm not shy. My husband and I have been married for almost 5 years. I am totally inappropriate when we are alone (just as he is with me..). In public though, I'm very much a lady. Actually, most of what I do behind closed doors would surprise MANY people. :wink: I don't go practically crapping my pants in the middle of…

^^This made me laugh a little, but I so agree.. Although I don't ride bikes so I suppose I'm not very cool. ;) Just keep your head high. Remain confident and fun loving. Someone will come along when you aren't looking. :)
