I LOVED This post! Thank you so much for sharing, and throwing a bit of humour in! You look absolutely amazing!

Hey! We're nearly the same! I'm 143 and 5'6", looking to loose around 12-15lbs, but I'm feeling pretty good here too :3

They say that the weight you take the longest to get off will stay off, I don't know that's true, but with this slow rate I sure wish!

Thanks everyone! It's so nice to have other's for support! @squeeks70 Awesome! I love finding people with almost the same stats! Can I add you?

When we talk about size "0", we're referring to, like, Pants sizes, right? I've been wondering. I'm a size 28 pants, (That's a 6 I'm pretty sure) So would I be a size 6?

Yeah, obviously that's not right. Uhmmmm, Irish & Italian!

Irish and Danish?

You look Great!!!

Okay Seriously though, where do I start? I'm on board.

THIS!

I agree with this. Making a big deal about her weight is going to make her weight concious for the rest of her life. Teach her about health and good food choices, not about counting calories. When I was 8-11 I put on a ton of weight... and then suddenly I GREW. Chances are she's about to get taller.

I'm a late night muncher too, it's AWFUL! I wonder if changing your mindset would work? Get really pumped for a cozy cup of green tea at the end of the night. And you can drink as much as you like, one steamy earthy antioxidant filled cup after another. Maybe it'll be good enough?

How tall are you? How long did it take? You look awesome! I started off around 180 as well :)

Don't Fret MFPal's! You can creep my diary and see I am a relatively good eater. I was mostly just interested in what people thought of this life style choice. I know girls who live on a basic mcdonalds diet who's bodies are tanned, tonned, and bikini ready. I often wonder if their diet will catch up to them.

Hide them in smoothies, Roast or even better.. grill them, cook them into dishes, like rice or sauces.... uhhhhhh I can't fathom... I love veggies. Alot. Especially Broccoli and asparagus.. and brussels sprouts. Ohhhh man. If any of my veggies are boiled or steamed, I drink the leftover water like a tea. So tasty! <3

I'm 100% the same way. I can bounce between 147 and 154 daily.

I have 3 favourite salads; 1. Chef's salad, that awful thing. Packed with all the rejected meats and cheese and dressings... guuuhhh 2. Spinach, strawberry, pecan and goat cheese salad, with a light vinaigrette 3. Ice berg lettuce, little cubes of cheddar cheese, radishes, carrots, cucumbers, broccoli, and a bit of ranch.…

You're amazing. You lost ME if I was holding a 5lb chihuahua.

I log it as calisthetics (I know thats not spelled right...) for 20 mins, and adjust the calories burned. For a woman who weighs 150lbs, she burns about 167 calories per 20 mins. http://www.livestrong.com/article/322448-how-many-calories-does-30-day-shred-burn/

Nothing Nothing Nothing. I keep bouncing around from 148-153 and back again.

Thank you! This helps alot with all this number confusion!

Thanks :) All these rules to losing weight freak me out. It should just be as easy as eat good food, exercise lots.

The eating more to weigh less method?

I think maybe I will try upping my calories for a month. I'm so scared of gaining though.

Anyone?
