I would also like to commend you for correctly spelling "lo"

I think I feel embarrassed because it's embarrassing to be fat and I feel like I should not have had to lose weight in the first place. Pointing out my weight loss is like pointing out that I was fat.

let's see a link to this video!!

If you win the lottery, then real tummy tucks for all of us - on you!

just posting because i needed another reminder to do this- I did it for a bit and now am slacking

My weight has only gone up and up with the years and yet my size has stayed the same! Today I sold an old blouse online- it was only a few dollars but it is at least 10 years old and after I gave it to the woman and saw her body size I realized it would be too small for her. A size 14 from 10 years ago is not the same as a…

I can't believe how many people have said hummus- it's 70 calories for 2T.

Two Ton Toni and Wide pockets

I've lost 35 pounds in 7 months and need to lose another 70 or so. I go to Curves 3 times a week. I do the Curves Smart and try to constantly better my results. It is not too hard on my knees or joints but I do wear knee supports while doing the machines.I also do the Leslie Sansone Walk at home videos. You can go to her…

I work out in the evening so I usually go in with full war paint on my face. It would be pretty tough on my skin to wash both before and after so I wait until after only. I sweat- a lot- and I blot rather than rub. And you know what else - I'll go to the grocery store straight from a workout with my soaking wet hair and…

And I hope you have to change it to Willowy and Lithe 2 !!!

I agree - you looked great at 210 (you were able to wear a sweater dress!!) and you look amzing now!

You are a beautiful woman. You are beautiful and loved in all of those pictures. You are on your way to becoming a fit and trim woman.

and be sure to let us know when you hit the 100's too!!!

People will talk bout how willowy and lithe we look

Shoulders back! Exactly! Roll your shoulders back and turn your hands so your little fingers are at you side and then suck in your gut!!

It has already been said but you've lost over 20% of your desired weight loss. 20%!!! That's a very big deal.

every day but my official weigh-in is once a month at the gym where measurements are taken as well

Some people cook it like pasta and drain but I prefer to make it like rice and I also prefer to use chicken broth as the liquid

this thread is just wonderful. really wonderful

Mostly marking my place. I cannot decide on my October goals. Seems like I'm stuck in a rut. I may need some Vegameatavitamina to get me going!

Tigress!! I did look at your food diary and you are not eating enough! I used to do the same thing- I ate very few calories and my weight just went up and up. I finally listened to what everyone was telling me and I began eating more - healthy food, of course. There are days when your calories burned by exercise are more…

yum!

yes

I am on a 6 week plateau. In the past I've been able to bust past it by upping my exercise but that hasn't worked this time. My calories are good but I'm thinking about restricting carbs a bit and see where that gets me. I had been steadily losing until now and had hoped to lose 20 pounds more by the end of the year but…

woohoo!

Thanks! I am very careful to record all I eat. I have actually kept food journals for years and years- off and on. I do eat my goal and have the occasional cheat day. I have stalled before and upping the workouts would bring me back around. I hope it works this time!

Megblair- I also had the Depo- could not do the ablation since I never stopped bleeding. I did a shot and then another after 3 months and that gave me 6 period-free months and my uterus was able to become smooth again. Even though my periods returned it was no longer non-stop.

You know what? I'll bet it actually helps your weight loss! Drink a lot of water and bump up the exercise and most importantly- LET IT GO!

It's crazy, isn't it??!! I have lost 30 pounds and I'm wearing the same ol' pants!! My weight loss has been slow and I think it just takes a bit for your body to shrink.
