Let your haters be your motivators. The insensitive stuff people say sometimes gives you the extra motivation that you need to keep going. Judging by your avatar you are beautiful; the only person who is blind is the one who can't see that. Don't ever hate yourself or the way you look. Turn on the lights, look in the…

Wow, you guys are so inspirational. Well done on the loss and lifestyle change.

Nicely done :)

If you have been overweight for an extended period of time, it may be difficult to "let the fat girl go," If you were not used to receiving compliments you may have a hard time accepting them. This is probably just a mental thing you have to work through but stay with it, 104 pounds lost in less than a year is no joke, you…

Excellent, you look great! Both outfits are very cute.

Awesome, great job :)

Looking much slimmer, nice! :smile:

The USDA considers white potatoes to be a starchy vegetable just like corn and peas. Sweet potatoes are considered a red and orange vegetable. Sweet potatoes being better than white potatoes is considered a food myth, look it up and see it debunked; both can be part of a healthy lifestyle. I don't follow Bob's or Jillian's…

Nice great NSV :smile:

Try eating whole grains and spreading your carbs throughout the day. Always pair carbs with protein or fat never eat carbs alone. If you eat grains or starches, try to have one serving at a meal, at most two, like 2 pieces of bread for a sandwich. Your desire for carbs should start lessening as you eat less of them, lose…

Well done, looking good!

Thanks for sharing, great advice :happy:

Damn, that food looks good. Stealing meal ideas.

Great job, doing military style pushups is a goal of mine also. :happy:

Welcome back, good luck!

Gratz on the achievement, you look great :)

I make mine in advance. Helps me to make sure I am getting all of my nutrients and it's more economical to plan meals at one time.

Awesome job, you look really great.

Thanks, this brought tears to my eyes because I am the fat girl. The obese chick walking on the treadmill, while the fit people are running or doing the elliptical at level 3 while others are at 15 or 20. I keep my head down and my headphones on not making eye contact or talking to anyone. This gives me more motivation to…

Incredible job, you look amazing!

Incredible, you look amazing. I am 5'4" also and this is very inspiring.

Gratz on sticking with it for a year! Great job

Awesome job!

Feel free to add :)

Hi, I have about 100 pounds to lose also. Anyone can feel free to add me :)

You must break a sweat to see some real changes. If working out is boring to you, try circuit or interval training. Circuit training breaks up the exercises in smaller chucks with a variety of moves so you don't get bored. With interval training you workout hardcore for short time and then have a recovery - very effective…

Asparagus and black eyed peas

This is so wonderful. I have over 100 pounds to lose and this is so encouraging.

1) Starting weight - 239.6 2) Goal weight - 130 3) My major strength is my focus and determination. When I set my mind to something I am like a machine. Also, I like to motivate others as well. 4) After working out on my own for 2 months, joining this group would help to motivate me and prevent burnout. The accountability…
