we need to be friends :) My starting weight, current weight, goal weight and height are exact! :wink: you look great and wish you nothing but success!

I am a very shy, timid girl...but, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when men give me a second look - now that i'm losing. it used to be "OMG, he's looking at how fat and gross i am" now it's, "OMG, is he looking at my butt"? LOl!

ummm....1 pound a week is pretty damn good! Make sure you are making the right choices for meals. it's a combo.....eat RIGHT and exercise. You'll be amazed how the pounds start falling off! don't be a quitter..that's what got you here to start with!

that has happened to me...not by my husband, but by "friends" in my life. What it did for me...Pissed me off to the piont that i am determined to PROVE THEM WRONG!!! I've been at it for about 2 months now and am down almost 20 pounds....35 since January. those are the people you want to walk up to and say "look at me now…

WOW!! you look like a totally different person. such an inspiration to those of us just starting. It IS possible! With hard work and dedication, we can all be where you are now! CONGRATS!!! you should be proud!

I am on 1200 a day and have have good success so far. I am down 18 pounds since the end of May. by choosing low cal. foods, you will be amazed at how much you can eat. don't get me wrong..there are days i feel like i could eat 2400, but, I stick with the 1200 and make sure i exercise at least 3 nights a week. Good luck to…

both of my babies are gingers and i don't think they could be any more beautiful!! :)

amazing work! Love to see real people doing this! gives me a better outlook at my situation! Keep up the good work - I'm sure your sons will benefit the most!!

You can add me :) I too am obese and working on it. Once upon a time, i worked out hard and really cared. Then, next thing i know, i am overweight and can't control my eating. If i was sad, i would eat. If i was happy, I would eat. If i was depressed, I would eat. etc...eating my emotions put me close to 100 pounds over…

can see it for sure! good job and keep up the good work. you should be proud!

You should be pretty excited!!!! Way to go! keep up the good work!

In steaming HOT St. Louis......it's misserabel here!

That's a big difference! You look fantastic!! Keep up the good/hard work! You should be very proud!

You can add me as a friend. we need all the support and advise we can get :) Good luck to you!

agree! Remakes drive me nuts, but i think Metallica was WAY wrong for redoing "turn the page" some songs just should not be messed with!

Way to go!! question...I have about the same amount to lose...how long did it take you?

Way to go!!! You should be sooo happy - AND PROUD!!!

I think we all have those days/weeks. You have to pick yourself up...and get moving! I know if you get up right now and do some jumping jacks or jogging in place...you will feel like you are back on track! Getting back up is the hardest part. YOU CAN DO IT!! Stick with it and you will soon feel like yourself again!

good luck to you and welcome back!

WAY TO GO!!! You should be VERY proud of what you accompished!!!!

Welcome and GOOD LUCK to you on your journey!!
