Okay, I lost 3 lbs last week and this week I was up two ounces - SORRY!!!! I am going to workout tonight and for the remainder of the week to make up for it. I'm going to really try hard.

To be successful in anything, you need to rein in the good, the bad and the ugly!!!! So..that being said, NEVER deprieve yourself of anything - use moderation, we all utilize it in one way or another in our daily lives. I love chocolate as well, but if I want to lose the weight, I know I can't eat a bag of anything - so…

AWESOME FOR YOU - GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT FOR ALL OF US!!!! What you should do, is dress by yourself and then come out and let your hubby see you in your new dress size, I bet his jaw will drop. Have fun at the wedding!!!!

Thank you all for your positive responses, I appreciate all of your WONDERFUL comments and your laughs we well. I was planning on going back and having some fun again - it was all surreal the looks on those women's faces. So since I love the "fart bars" as they were so eloquently called, I will continue to eat them and…

You are NOT a failure!!!!! Maybe you just need to try a little at a time; cutting sugar completely out of your diet is very good but somewhat harsh and now your body may be rebelling; and I really can't say I blame it. Do everything in moderation and you will be able to stick with it better. Good Luck and remember you are…

LOVE THIS!!!!!!

Thank you all!!!!! I went home in an awful mood and then after I made the post, I went into my room to sulk, and I started to think, about ten years ago I needed to lose about 20-25 pounds; which I did. Obviously I gained that back and then put another 20 on!!! The point being, is that I weigh exactly the same as I did 10…

You know, I have to disagree - when I was in my early 20's, I was 5 ft. 7 in. tall and weighed all of 114 pounds; strawberry blond hair, straight teeth, and clear complexion - I would go to bars and men would run the other way; I remember thinking to myself "what the hell is wrong with me". People would say men were…

I personally have set a goal to lose 5 pounds per month; as I think that is a responsible and healthy way to obtain my final goal. I have not yet rewarded myself, as I don't really deprive myself. As I have really just reach the midway point of my weight loss, I may go out and purchase a few "new" items of clothing - not…

bump - thanks

Okay today was my weigh in day and I lost 3 pounds (YEAH FOR ME)!!!!!! I was not awful over the holiday weekend, but I did not deprive myself either. So I have another 7 pounds to lose to meet this goal of 10 pounds for the month of April. For those of you who did not do so well over the holiday weekend - put it behind you…

Okay the below was posted last week or so and then I sent it out I believe on Monday as well to someone else who was in the same position as you. Hope it helps and good luck with the remainder of your weight loss. Ask Jillian Michaels Dealing With Weight-Loss Plateaus Q: How can I bust through a weight-loss plateau? I've…

OMG I almost forgot that tomorrow is weigh in day for me for this challenge - wish me luck!!! To Steph_135 - I peeing in my pants when I saw the whole 32 Peeps!!!!!!! It is not funny - but it is funny - sorry - I am sure you will get back on board this week. Good Luck to all of you who weigh in tomorrow moring!!!!!!!!!!

You know what I try and remind myself of on a regular basis, it took me quite some time to put this weight on, it is also going to take time to take this weight off - and that usually helps me a great deal. Also, another thing to remember is that when you start to diet, you do tend to lose a far amount due to water weight…

CONGRATS!!!!!!! I'm sure your parents/family were proud of you prior to losing the weight, but when you stepped off that train, you probably made your Dad even prouder!!!! Good for you

I'm just like laceylala - I get up and if I were to eat breakfast too early - I would probably get sick as well!!!! You have to do what is best for you!

Good Job on the weight loss - you and I are both at 19 pounds!!!! Below is from a post that I just read maybe last week - hope it helps!!!!! Ask Jillian Michaels Dealing With Weight-Loss Plateaus Q: How can I bust through a weight-loss plateau? I've been working really hard and have been having success; however, the scale…

I totally agree; I want my facebook friends to see my progress when the SEE me; not on some updates from MFP!!:)

Welcome Back!!! I'm glad you posted this; as when I was turning 40 (nine years ago), I lost 25 pounds because I was turning 40 and I wanted to look good; so I turned 40 looking great. Well, eight 1/2 -nine years later, I am trying to lose 45 pounds - hum guess what I put that 25 pounds back on and added another 20, so I…

Thanks - I read this and all of my pet peeves have been well covered!!!! I enjoyed!

So, when you burn 3500 calories in a week, how much weight did you lose?

Congrats and good luck, I too was basically in the same category as you, but I am turning 50; so you are smart to get a jump and get control over your life now before your my age and things are a bit more challenging. I basically do the same as you, I pack snacks and lunch but I have not called it my feeding bag - I love…

Okay, I would like to join as well!!!! I usually try and lose 5 pounds per month; but only lost 4 this month; so I'm in - I think it will push me to go to the gym far more often than I have and to be my aware of what I put in my mouth. When are the weigh in days? SW: 205 CW: 186.4 CHALLENGE WEIGHT (MARCH): 176.4…
