Best post of the day! CONGRATS!!! I'm down to a size 14 from an 18.

Thank you! I have to be a bridesmaid in my best friend's wedding in a little over 10 weeks. I'm trying to lose 22 lbs for her wedding. I'm already down 2 dress sizes from an 18 to a 14!

I did eat a lot of crap this week. We are in the process of moving to a different city so we spent several days away from home looking at places to live, and I was unable to cook much. I'm a recovering fast food addict, so it's a little slow-going with me. I'm trying to make better choices!!

LMAO. I'm 26, but have a strict No Creeper rule. Sorry guys! :P

I'm feeling the same way. I'm down 8 lbs, but I'm eating much better and exercising 30 minutes every day. I haven't lost any weight in almost a week, so I'm feeling a little down, but trying to focus on other goals such as running further or drinking more water. The weight will come off in time, right? :D I was told to…

WOW! That is incredibly inspirational! I'm trying to lose 71 lbs (down 8 lbs, 63 to go!). I'm 5'8" and I want to weigh around 135. You are fabulous!!!

I'm still working on mine. I'm down 8 lbs so far. I hope to lose another 63 to put me at my pre-baby weight. I'm 5'8".

I once lost 40 lbs in 3 months. My hubby was deployed and I just ate smaller meals more often (not even necessarily good-for-you meals, just less of it) and walked 3 miles a day. I must have looked pretty good, because I got pregnant the next month. HAHA.

I don't know if this is a viable option for you at all, but I put my treadmill in my kitchen. I have to walk past it to get to the refrigerator. So whenever I find myself craving something the rest of my family (relatively thin husband, and two thin daughters) eat, such as chips or icecream, I make myself do 30 min on the…

I carry my weight well, I guess. LOL. I have really chubby butt/thighs and arms as well.

Those are great! WTG!

Thanks everyone! I'm making some popcorn for a snack. And I'm only gonna have one bowl. :D

Thank you. I'm really very happy with myself this evening. :D

I sent all of you requests. Thanks so much!

That's good information! Thanks! I typically wear juniors (odd numbered sizes) but maybe I shouldn't be...I've got wide hips and a round butt. LOL. Even when I was skinny I had a big butt...

Yes, I am a woman. :D The pic is of me and my hubby, so I think it's causing confusion. LOL It is very possible that my trainer WAS talking about TDEE or that I misunderstood her. Honestly, I really have no idea what I'm doing here and I'm trying to soak up as much information as I can to make the healthiest lifestyle…

Well thanks for clearing that up for me! Here I've been all worried about eating my last snack at 900 pm and I shouldn't really worry about it. :D

I'm down almost 16 lbs and over 4 inches off my waist...still in a size 16 jeans. HOPING I get to see 14's before the New Year. :D Congrats on your NSV AND your 25 lbs lost!

I'm not sure what my actual deficit daily is. I'm a little confused on everything. MFP says I should eat 1230 daily and burn 2100 cal per week through exercise. My trainer did a body scan on me today and told me my BMR is 1650 (or close to that) and I should have a 500 cal per day deficit. Today I burned 429 calories…

Anyone?

I disagree with those saying it's water. Also, tea is not water. Yes, it's made of water, but tea is also a natural diuretic. Soda has water in it too, do you log that as water? No. I was told that you are supposed to drink one ounce of water for every 2 lbs you weigh. I weight 190, so I need to drink 80 oz of water daily.…

I'm 5'8" and weigh 191 lbs. My goal weight is 135 but I've been happy at 155 before.

I live in Lafayette, IN.

Me too! I'll send you a request. :D

I am 5'8" and I currently weight 182-185 (I started out at 202-205), but my first goal is to get down to 165. My ideal dream weight is around 135, but I haven't been there for 10 years. LOL. Feel free to add me for support and encouragement! I log in every day and try to comment as often as possible.

Most definitely! Start date: 7/3/2012 Projected end date for first round: 9/4/2012 Height: 5'8" Current weight: 182ish Hopeful first goal weight: 165ish Following nutrition plan: No, I see a nutritionist who sets my restrictions and goals. I also swim 2-3 miles a week and do Zumba one day a week. I hope to lose 2 lbs a…

Bump?

I'm in Lafayette. I want to lose 48 more lbs (I'm down 19 so far). I have 2 daughters (4 and almost 2) and I babysit a newborn boy. Feel free to add me! I log in every day.

I log on every day and I try to comment on as many updates as possible. You can definitely add me! I'm down 19 lbs, 48 lbs to go!

Wow! Glad to see some swimmers in here! :D The 100 Mile Club challenge starts on July 1st. :D Can't wait to see how everyone does!
