this is pretty much what my trainer tells me also.......

Agree with all of the above. The minute I tell myself I can't have something is when I want it so bad, nothing else will do. Then you binge. But when I know I can have anything I want in moderation, I don't get cravings.

Love your story, love your pics, love your inspiration! and you are absolutely right, the scale is NOT the end all, be all of weight loss. It's all the NSV that mean the most. Thanks for sharing :smile:

and I'd go with the black, looks very chic on you :wink:

what an awesome feeling! great job, keep up the hard work :smile:

Awesome job! You should be very proud of your hard work, keep it up!

I'm in, put me down for 5 (I know my body) .... and if I lose anything over that, it's just icing on the cake : )

I'm smiling after looking at that pic :happy:

When you are in love and in a committed relationship, having friends of the opposite sex, whether it be on MFP or in RL, does not make it tempting to cheat. My husband and I are both flirts, always have been, but just because we flirt doesn't mean we are looking to cheat. Just because I like to window shop at Tiffany's…

sounds like that would probably work, but better stock up on adult diapers :embarassed:

It's not my fault I'm fat!!!! I'm short for my weight, have bad genes, too much stress........etc. (insert sarcasm here please). I'm fat because I eat too much and exercise too little.

What about any funny after taste??

Thanks for the laugh :laugh:

Amazing job! You will always have good days and bad days, but you've obviously made the right kind of lifestyle changes and that's what keeps it off in the long run.

gotta admit-I took the bait :happy:

How did you know that is just what I needed today?

*bump

go look at my profile pic on my page :smile:

Ha ha, you take my pic and I'll take yours : ) You really can see the difference, especially in your waist :happy:

I tried my coconut mojito with bacon yesterday......it wasn't better. That makes you bacon lovers WRONG! (insert sarcasm here) :laugh: :drinker:

Howie, you are amazing! 'nuf said :happy:

Love this post, sooooooo damn true! :laugh:

47 here, and always looking for more buds for chatting and support. Feel free to add me, but please send a message with any requests :happy:

I am shuddering at the thought of how close 50 is looming, but as long as I don't look my age, or feel my age, then I don't have to act my age! My knees however beg to differ at times (and hips and shoulders) lol. feel free to add me, always looking for more buds here :happy:

I also have the Polar FT4 and I love it. Bought it on line from Amazon, well worth the money! I was over estimating on some workouts, under on others, now, I don't workout without it :smile:

What a GREAT feeling! It's so great when you get to see all your hard work paying off!

Sorry to hear that your family is so unsupportive of your goals to get healthy and fit. I agree with some of the other posts, sounds like they are: a) very insecure about themselves or their relationship with you, or b) jealous that you can do what they cannot. Either way, don't stop. Keep reminding your husband you are…
