County Durham currently, originally from the States

Smarties are like fruity M&Ms - chocolate covered with a fruit flavored shell. They sell them in the UK, maybe Canada too. Unlike US smarties, which are chalky, sugar things in a roll. I'm an American living in the UK. I totally understand the confusion! :)

I'm an American living in the UK (Co. Durham).

Definitely a difference! You look great!

Awesome! Congrats!

I am VERY happy and proud of Dan. He's amazing. The long distance is hard, but I'm hoping to remedy that later this year. :smile: I feel like a such a lucky girl to have found my soulmate and best friend here on MFP. :heart:

Thanks everyone! :)

You look great! Congrats! :)

You look awesome! Congrats!

I'm 5'4", currently weigh 150 lbs and wear a size 8 or 10 in jeans. I think I'm probably the same size in dresses, but haven't tried one on in awhile. :)

I agree with everyone else... Polo is awesome!

You look amazing! Congrats! :)

LOL I've gone down about a size. I was really hoping for more. They never have cute bras in the bigger sizes or bikini tops for that matter! I'm hoping the next 10 lbs makes them shrink a little more. Fingers crossed!

Aww, love reading this thread! :smile:

It definitely has to be someone with a similar lifestyle. I'm not ever going back to my old ways. I wouldn't have a problem telling someone I used to weigh more.

Vitamin D is awesome! I've been taking it for 3 months now (in addition to a multi-vitamin). It definitely makes a difference. It supposedly helps regulate sleep and makes belly fat disappear too. :)

The good: The divorce will be final in 60 days. He's still fat, since he gave up after two months of MFP (ha!). :laugh: The bad: He has criticized everything I've ever done. I've never been able to live up to his standards, weight or otherwise. :grumble: Bring on April! :drinker:

Tropicana 50 isn't bad. And of course, it only has 50 calories. :)

Congrats to both of you! That's awesome!

Congrats! You guys look amazing!

Make sure you're getting enough Vitamin D, in addition to cardio. :)

Congrats! :) I had to Google Broccoli and Stilton soup too, lol. Not common in the States. :)

Aww, love this topic. I have too many favorites to list.

I read that one this morning too. Yes, very inspiring!

LOL I weigh myself every day. However, I do so with an open mind.

LOL

Love this topic...I'll have to think about it and come back.

Congrats!! That's awesome!

Interesting thread!

LOL @ Binary. Welcome Candra!! You'll love it here!
