I'm restarting too. Feel free to add me.

I'd tell him to go be happy with one of those women then. Who the hell does that? What you look like on the outside doesn't affect the person he has vowed to love and cherish til death do you part. You should go to him with pictures of Brad Pitt or whoever and be like "I wish you looked like this. Now how do you feel?" If…

Same boat here. Reception = sitting for the whole day. At least I get up when I can to go talk to a coworker (whereas some will just call me. LAZY!) Too cold to go out during lunch (it's -38 right now.) I need a new job but sadly so many jobs these days revolve around plunking ourselves in front of a computer. I so wish I…

Ah the wacky world of calorie intake. I'd love to know this for myself. I set my level as sedentary and just ate back my exercise calories and had little trouble losing 100 pounds. Yet after seeing how off calorie estimates can be (and how quick 50 pounds can come back with the craziness of life and lack of routine) I'm…

I was a 34F and of course they were the first thing to go when I started losing :( Though I don't like fake boobs so I don't think I'd pay to get them back on my new body. Probably just get some nice tattoos.

100 in 6 months? Ummm yeah that's pretty unrealistic. I did 100 in just over a year. You should only ever lose 2 pounds per week max. If you get it off good luck keeping it off. It's gotta be a sustainable lifestyle change.

I put sedentary because I seriously sit all damn day. Chained to my desk I am. I don't figure that's lying to MFP. I have always calculated my needs using the scooby calculator and not what MFP gave me and lost 100 pounds doing so (fairly easily and not starving myself.)

I lost 100 in just over a year. It can be done.

People are just jealous because you are taking the steps to make your life better while they are still lost in their sad little world of sitting around making excuses for themselves. Trust me. I lost 100 pounds very much on my own and had so many people trying to detract from my success. My relationship with my mother fell…

A true inspiration. Congratulations on all your hard work :)

So many protein powders out there are damn delicious. I haven't had one I don't like yet and I try a new one every time I need a new container. My favourite still has to be the first one though it was Cinnamon Roll or Cinnamon Bun from the MyoFusion probiotic line.

You are not alone. Here for ya...and now suddenly singing Michael Jackson. Add me if you like. I'm just getting back on the wagon after losing 100 pounds and gaining half back.

"I have absolutely no idea how to eat " I've said this I don't know how many times in the past few months and people just don't get it. After doing a lot of reading I fear my path to weight loss left me anorexic (probably should've gotten concerned when my periods stopped for eight months) or at least with definite…

Jamie Lee Curtis...with longer hair. And yup I see the George Michael stance.

Ooh I can't wait to fit into my sexypants...again!

Whatever shake you can see yourself drinking for the rest of your life. It's a lifestyle change. I stick to a good old fashioned whey protein shake post workout.

Clean

Tax breaks I think. Dunno.

Pose nude? Sure why not. I've danced nude in front of complete strangers...but that was 50 pounds ago.

I have all but literally given myself a brain aneurysm because of millilitres. This headache is why I just didn't bother eating ice cream for a year and a half...or olive oil...or well anything in mL. Such a friggin pain in the *kitten*. You could always measure it with a measuring cup but then you have the different pain…

Right there with ya on all three.

I'm 5'7" was down to 20% BF or so. Saw abs. Didn't want to but I did. Still had a friggin muffin top though. Couldn't get it to budge even though I dropped my weight enough that my period stopped for 8 months. My body's just stubborn I guess.

MFP has left me with completely disordered eating. True story. I also can't wait for Christmas to end. I've had it with all these food and family-centric holidays. Bah humbug!

I only started counting my tea toward my 10 glasses of water a day. Makes it a lot easier though 'cause with 10 glasses of water and on average 2-3 teas a day all I was doing was drinking, peeing and logging lol

Hit up Suzy Shier? They've got nice Christmas party type dresses for $40.

If you have Facebook I have posted the logic behind calorie counting https://www.facebook.com/notes/motivation-mandy/step-5-counting-calories-its-longsorry/330200967094390

Nice! I love the little mermaid and you did her proud. Way to enjoy the fruits of your labour :)

The scale is bull****. I got to a point of weighing myself 6 times a day. It will drive you mad if you let it. It can only tell you that one meaningless number. Body fat %, inches, and other numbers are better things to watch to gauge success :)

I noticed this too after my chocolate binge experiment. Definitely not doing that again any time soon.

Welcome :) I started at about the same and am about where you want to land (if you adjust for height difference anyway.) If it's motivation you're looking for I've been told I have it in spades :)
