What a great forum...and I am here to tell you it can be done. So far I am down 133# from my starting weight...exciting times but a lot of hard work. Learned to cook healthy and know how important exercise and water are to reaching your goals. Life is good and getting better!! Stay strong; it can be done. Wishing everyone…

Ahh, could it be she is a bit jealous that you are losing weight without surgery? Maybe she feels that you think you are stronger than her? Is she unconsciously trying to upset you enough to eat unhealthy? This may be a point that you need to explore and talk to her about. It is hard to believe that someone would get that…

Thank you for this info...having lost 129# so far, I am concerned about loose skin once I reach my final goal...so far, it has been doing okay and only time will tell. I know that losing slowly has been very helpful in keeping the extra skin in check. Thanks again and now I am going out for another walk! Hugs, SisterC

But, wasn't it wonderful when we could buy the 'smaller' size 20 instead of having to purchase a 22 or 24?? lol Can't imagine the size I would have had to buy if it wasn't for the 'vanity' sizing...guess I am thankful for that! This subject can be looked at several ways...but, it does make it hard to shop online.

Whew! I've gotten so busy walking that I forgot to log in my week two miles!! Walked 24 miles for week two...it is raining here now but hope it gets nice out again so I can log in a few more miles for this week...may end up walking with Leslie inside which isn't bad, but love to be outside if the weather is nice. Thanks,…

Wow! What a change...keep up the good work!

A little behind here with my logging...but for week 1 of the challenge...I walked 22 miles!! Wooo-hooo! Thanks Rob for starting this challenge. Now onto week 2....

Absolutely fantastic!!! You look super amazing and so very happy! So proud of you and all that you have accomplished...stay healthy for life! Hugs, SisterC

Okay...I plan to walk 80 miles this coming month....so looking forward to this challenge!! Good luck everyone! Hugs, SisterC

Count me in!! I love Leslie Sansone dvds...when I first started this journey, I could not get through 10 min of one...having lost 127 so far, I think this challange will help me reach my final goal...okay, we are starting Monday, June 14th. Thanks for coming up with this challenge!! Hugs, SisterC

I was thinking...Pants on the ground, pants on the ground too!!! LOL Congrats!

A registered dietician told me the ingredient causing the 'gassy' feeling is the chickery root...some people digest it better than others. She, herself, said she cannot eat that product at all; however, I can eat them several times a day and not have any problems. I love them! Maybe try eating half a bar a day, see how it…

Thanks for your concern. I fall into that catagory, but it can be deceiving...sometimes I am one calorie under....which I don't think is bad. If I see that I am going to be more than 50 under, I will grab an apple at the end of the day...the calorie log, to me, is to help me not to go way over....I may not chart the apple…

Once a week for sure...and chart it. Sometimes the scale flits under my feet mid-week and then I happen to see if things are going in the right direction before 'weigh & chart day.' LOL Whatever works to motivate is what is best for me. Hope your journey goes well for you. Hugs, SisterC

Hey Yourself!! Welcome to the group....it is a great site. All the best to you on this healthy journey! Hugs, SisterC

Welcome! I just wanted to say howdy and let you know that those pounds will come off again...lose slowly and learn to eat healthy along the way. This isn't a diet; it is a way of life. Best of luck to you on your healthy journey...your kids are going to thank you! Hugs, SisterC

No one said it would be easy; but it is so worth the effort to be healthy! Eating lots of fruits & veggies plus drinking water and exercising has been a huge change to my previous life...I feel so much better now and have more energy...each week I get better than I was the week before...and looking back over a year…

You are down two pounds!! Celebrate each and every pound....and take each day as it comes. Some days are going to be great and others are going to be tough; but know that you can reach your goal. Believe in yourself! You have two wonderful children that need you and they need you to be healthy. I know what it is like to…

What a great find! Thanks!:flowerforyou: Have a great day. Hugs, SisterC
