Do you track how many calories you are burning? Invest in a Heart Rate Monitor. Totally worth it!

Yes, please take measurements also. I can't give you an estimation by how much it will go up as everyone is different. Don't get on the scale for a week or so. Eat healthy, get in some exercise and take measurements!

Like AmyRhubarb, I only count water as water. I don't count the water in coffee or tea, just plain water (or water with added Crystal Light or MiO). I usually drink 8-12 glasses a day of plain water.

600 calories is very little. As for eating more calories, your weight MAY go up in the beginning, but then you will start to lose again. Please eat more. For your health. Are you logging the food you eat in your diary? Make sure you are eating GOOD calories and not bad calories. Log everything.

Inspiration that I more than needed today.

I have been insanely shy my entire life. Since working as a cashier (lame, I know right?) and marrying my husband (14 years older) who's family is from Jersey and VERY loud and outspoken, I have opened up some. Get off your phone. Even if you are just sitting there listening. If I had friends over and someone was just…

21 and have about 100-110 pounds to lose. Feel free to add me. :]

Please feel free to add me! I started at almost 260, so I wasn't quite 300... but I was gettin' there! Would love to be your friend! Good luck!

It's true. Pit bulls have the BEST smiles. Hands down.

Feel free to add me. I am a little similar. 21 years old, a little over 100 pounds to lose, an almost 3 year old daughter and a wonderful husband. We run a dog rescue and I work as a cashier on the side to support us. :]

Don't give up!!!

Totally not into girls, but your body is sexy! Great job!! Keep it up.

Javinmendoza: your smile!

Exactly! I love the top, but not the bottoms.

Feel free to add me. I have a 3 year old, down 14ish pounds and married. From South Carolina!

I have roughly 100 pounds to lose, feel free to add me! I love new friends to help motivate!

5 for the photo... can't see your face.

Just because you ate a BUTT LOAD of stuff in one day, does not mean you are not serious about losing weight. Everyone has those types of days! Just saying. AAAAAND, I was tempted into the chinese buffet tonight and had 3 pieces of chicken on a stick, some coconut shrimp, two little sponge cake roll things, one and a half…

I don't even want to think about it. I can imagine... probably around 6k+ when my husband & I used to hit up the chinese buffet or Golden Corral or Ryan's buffet. *Shudder.*

Thank God I'm not the only one!!

Exactly. GOOD FOR YOU!

Go shop at a thrift store!! :]

I have found looking at the menu of where I want to go + looking at nutritional info for what I want is a big plus. It helps me stick to eating better and I don't have to sit and fumble with a menu full of amazing, delicious, not so good for you stuff. I already know what I want ahead of time.

Ridiculousness on TV. Background noise.

Blasphemy. How can you not like white chocolate?!

Coconut, mushrooms... SUSHI! I have never tasted sushi, but the smell disgusts me. I work at a Kroger and we sell sushi and everytime someone comes through my line with it I just want to barf.

Thanks guys. I will definitely be returning this one and getting something with a chest strap!
