Thanks for the replies! It's good to know the positive changes others are experiencing! It certainly sealed the deal for me as far as continuing this wonderful way of life. Potluck965: Hang in there :) I do get what you mean about getting cold easier though. :)

I've been up to 6 lbs heavier by the late afternoon! Don't go by that reading! ;)

My bet would be on fluid. Are you weighing yourself in the morning only before you eat? Weights can fluctuate 5 lbs throughout the day.

You look AMAZING! Good for you! What an inspiration! Did you find that it came off a lot slower the closer you got to your goal? I have almost the same amount of weight to loose.

We can be crazy *****es together. Yeah, mine only happened when I first began exercising in general. Now I feel great when I work out no 'relapses' . You may be on to something with the hormone theory.

Hilarious! At least I know I can use crap and damn.

I became overly sensitive about the first week and a half that I began working out. It was no where near TOM. I'm the type of person who doesn't hold any thought or feeling back so there really wasn't anything different other than the exercise.

I bet that feels amazing! Congratulations!

Congrats!!!!! You are amazing!!

174 lbs to 172 lbs = 2 lbs lost! :)

I've worked with various doctors and then veterinarians and know first hand how much…

I just looked up the Machu Picchu tour. AMAZING!!!!

Ahhh!!! Chocolate Shakes were my downfall!!!! THANK YOU for posting this!

Awesome!!!! I'm hoping to hike the Grand Canyon next year with some friends. I opted out last year due to being so out of shape and missed out on a great time!

I live in Prescott Arizona in the mountains. I usually hike at Thumb Butte. I just found out that there is a trail less than five mins from my house that takes you by some 300 year old Native American petroglyphs so I will definitely be checking that out soon! Many of the steep trails are blocked during winter due to the…

Didn't you lose 5 lbs last time?! If you lose 1 lb tomorrow your still right on track! and if not, no biggy there's always next week.

Welcome! My total weight loss will be 50 lbs so I understand! Think of it as a lifestyle change though not just a diet. You'll develop good habits that will keep you healthy and at your healthy size when all this is done. :)

I do not know anyone who has tried it but this may give you some more info on it. :) http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/alli/WT00030
