Interesting..

I have drank a 40oz tea pot of green tea everyday for over a year now. I initially did it for health benefits, but now I do it because I'm addicted lol. If you buy some nice quality, loose green tea (gunpowder is my very favorite-you can get good stuff for far far less at Asian grocery stores rather than pay an arm and a…

My goal is 1460, and I do tend to eat back all my exercise calories, ugh lol. I'm always trying to find my niche though, so in a month, this may change again:ohwell:

You look incredible!! So inspiring! Also, I love your shirt in the last picture, lol.

Wow!!! This is so inspiring! I just started this week, and it's pretty tough! I'm glad to see it can be done though, and with spectacular results!!!

Ahh yesss! Bob's Burgers! I haven't loved (or laughed so hard at) a show in a long long time. I dearly love this show. :)

Could not have said this any better!

I've gotten good results so far I feel. I am on day 15; Level 2 day 4 ( I've decided to do an extra day of each level, so I'll have a total of 33 days) This is the first exercise program (or exercise in general) that I've done in years, and it feels great! I haven't lost any weight (in a bit of a plateau I guess), I feel…

I usually cook it in the same way as one would cook collards. But it in a pan, boil it til it's soft, and then serve. You can season it anyway you like (I really like it plain). I'm not sure boiling is the healthiest way, but at the same rate I keep reading these articles about how it's also not beneficial raw. People bake…

I've never heard that one before.. I'm so using that one :laugh: This is the best thread ever.

-Mozzarella Cheez-itz (used to go through about 4 boxes a week, eating them for meals sometimes. Now allowed only one box per week..absolute addiction lol) -French horns that you get in the bakery isle..ohh don't trust myself with those so I can't buy them lol. -Calbee snow pea or Sea weed crisps..aww yeah and since the…

I actually just started lvl 2 today, sounds like we are at the same place on our 30 days! :smile: Honestly, I kind of hate it lol. I couldn't wait for it to end. It's very tough though, most people say it's the worst of the three. It just felt very long for me, like it wouldn't end I guess. Just gonna stick it out because…

*Bumping :-)

I'm 5'6 and I'd love to be under 130, I believe I put my goal at 126. Really though if I get into the low 130's and I like it, I'll likely just stay put. Can't wait to have such a deliberation :)

Wow that's amazing!! I hope you can encourage your family members to follow in your healthy foot steps!:smile: :flowerforyou:

Dang, wish I had something cool like these guys who came from one country but now reside in another...*sigh*..Florida born and raised...but aspire to live in Canada someday...soooomeday...

These are way too funny! Bump!!

So, you've lost 44lbs and your sister in law doesn't think you're a credible source? What is she thinking? Wow...hope her diet doesn't last long and that her body is ok by the end of it. Tough situation though.

I don't like Brad Pitt..like at all. I saw Cool World though, so at least I tried? Ohhh and I never understood the love people have for Robin Williams or Jim Carrey. Ugh. Their cheesy 90s sentiments always made my eyesroll, even as a kid. I always get a sting of being patronized when I watch one of their movies. I suspect…

*high fives back!* Thank you very much and I agree! I'm really enjoying myself this time around instead of slogging through it and getting discouraged. I think that's a good sign!:happy:

Love it!!:flowerforyou: Very positive and log on everyday! Feel free to add me and congrats on starting your journey! :happy:

Whoa! You look incredible! Not only did you lose a butt load of weight, it looks like you've dropped 10 years! (Especially the one with you in the red hoodie) amazing work, and very inspiring!

Wow, fantastic! Very inspiring!!

Not that I have to explain myself, but to quell your confusion: Before now, I've only tried doing MFP for about 2 weeks at a time. I did the usual 1200 like most that download the app because I didn't know better. I still have the same old account and am using it, hence the fact it's years old. I would find some other diet…

I feel like the same way...:(

Wow, one word: INSPIRING! I'm the same height as you and hope so much to have the same success! Thank you so so much for sharing, this is amazing. :heart: :heart:

Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! That kind of nasty bitterness makes people want to leave and never come back. I seldom make posts on here for fear of backlash, and that is just sad. Like OP, I've just started again early last month and just trying to figure things out. This process takes a while and the journey…

No offense OP, but this is very true. Especially the last part. The only ones who would agree that this I'd a good idea are the ones that want to follow the same pattern. I think most people here would recommend a reevaluation of what you really want from your body. Good luck though in whatever you feel is healthy. Had to…

Same here. I was hoping at the end of the thread OP would post her results :p Hope it worked out for her!
