Interesting post. I've been considering Paleo diet for a number of reasons as well. 1) My father was recently diagnosed with lung cancer and his nutritionist suggested that he try the Paleo diet. I've been cooking his meals for him so that meant I had to learn what it was all about. He's lost a ton of weight as a result of…

woot woot

Miss me??? *laughs* Ok I'm back. Life has been so hectic (started going back to school full-time to get my MBA) that I've just really been horrible with my eating and exercising and gained 6lbs *pouts* But I'm going to do this again. Gotta. I like getting smaller cloths too much. SW - 305lbs CW - 266.6lbs

Well I weighed myself yesteday and it said 259.6 but did it again this morning and it was 261.2... so I have to go with the higher weight. SW - 300 LW - 263 CW - 261.2

About ready to scream and cry and throw things. I had gained a pound last week because of my horrible eating. Then i lost it... NOW it went even higher than it was the week before. What is going on??? i was good this week *cries & then laughs* SW - 300 LW - 262 CW - 263????

So I feel like a complete failure (yes I know that's not good talk) but I completely fell off the wagon - starting Friday and ended yesterday at dinner. I'm so ashamed I didn't even put any of my food in the site. Oh well... today is a new day and I CAN DO THIS!!! SW - 300 LW - 261.2 CW - 262.3 Yeah I gained a pound. I…

i'm game for March pics. i won't be anywhere near my goal weight (which I've moved to 135 btw) in March (or even June) but the progress will be nice to see. i love this group :) linne

Welcome! My main suggestion is to find a group. Any group will do. Just something that will help to keep you accountable and motivated. I know for me the June Starters (JUNE STARTERS ROCK!!!) was a good group. We have weekly check-ins and help to keep each other motivated. Once again welcome :) linne

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I am very excited about this news just because it's nice to know it can be fixed with a little time and my hard work and persistence wasn't for nothing. And yes my hair was thinning. I already have really thin hair but it was coming out in chunks which made me a bit nervous. I didn't…

GW For right now is 150. Will see how it suits me when I get there. and YAY Courtney. Glad it worked out.

Richmond, Virginia here. Welcome!

SW - 300 LW - 264.3 CW - 263 Good luck everyone this week. And good luck Shannah on the marathon training. That stuff scares me *laughs* Linne

Fantastic! See that's what I've been bugging my mom to update hers. She has one of those 1960's ones too (doesn't go above 250 lbs.) She may be surprised at what she actually does weigh lol

I like the way you have it now with the before and during beside each other. Way easier to see the differences. And THANKS everyone :) It's been a hard journey but well worth it.

Slowly ticking away. Still not sure how I've lost weight over the holidays but won't be complaining. SW - 300 LW - 265.3 CW - 264.3

Ok so I did the impossible...Lost weight during Christmas. Not sure how that happened but I'll take it! SW - 300 LW - 266.5 CW - 265.3 So down over a pound. *does a little happy dance* Good luck everyone! :flowerforyou:

I think it's worth it but you may want to invest in something like Jillian for Wii or the Active Life ones... Wii Fit (and Plus) are ok but don't really work up much of a sweat. Good luck! :)

Didn't get a chance to put this in yesterday but here goes: SW: 300 LW: 267.5 CW: 266.5 So down a lb. Not bad :)

SW - 300 LW - 269 CW - 267.5 Down a lb. and a half. Yay :)

SW - 300 LW - 270 CW - 269 Down a lb. and in the 60's. YAY

I did it! I exercised for 30 minutes (Jillian 30 day shred plus walking) on Thanksgiving! Really needed it after all that food.

Just finished day 2 on level 1. SO Proud of myself for doing this on thanksgiving!

YES! i am VERY proud of myself. Took a while but kept plugging away. It gave me motivation to step things up a bit actually. Started doing the Jillian 30 Day Shred (omg it kicked my butt) so I'm hoping that combined with the eating better will keep me going in the right direction.

Ok so I'm a little late but I went ahead and started the 30 day shred yesterday and all I have to say is OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hurt *laughs* Muscles that I didn't know I had are screaming at me. Laughing even hurts and I'm a happy person and laugh a lot. SUCKS! lol but like my co-worker keeps saying "Pain is weakness…

*disregard - not sure why it posted twice*

I wanna join! Although I think I have the most to loose. No matter... 5'3" SW - 300 CW - 270 GW - 150ish

SW - 300 LW - 271 CW - 270 Slow and steady wins the race *grins* AND OMG! i just reached 30lbs! That's 10% of my body weight.

I'll give it a go if I can find some way to do it for free. It appears that it is a product you have to pay for?

SW - 300 LW - 272 CW - 271 1 pound lost. I'll take it.

i was bad but kind of needed something to endulge in... I had chocolate chip pancakes! :blushing: and a tall cup of mocha. You ever have those days where you've just been so good for so long and you need a tiny break to eat something unhealthy? Either way it only totals about 500 calories so I'm not too worried.
