Hi. I have a small frame. 5'9", 128 pds, chest: 36, waist: 28, hips: 34. :)

It will be a 3000 calorie dinner!

You're welcome, Eleanor! Thank you for being a great friend as well. I have watched you take on difficult challenges with grace and determination. One day, hubby & I will be in Ireland to visit where all my ancestors are from and I hope we can sit down for dinner & drinks! We will invite Claire & Mark...You have my support…

I am proud to call you my friend, Eleanor! You inspire me in so many ways :) I wish I could go to your graduation and celebrate your success with you in person! Keep up the fantastic work, you are beautiful!

You are beautiful. If it were me, I would focus on healthy eating, cardio and having fun! No worries about your appearance. Congratulations to your whole family on your baby girl. I love when Janice talks about her grandkids!

First picture you look incredible. Second picture you look smoking hot and sexy. Your hard work has clearly paid off. It's hard to shake off the insecurities regarding your appearances but let me reassure you that you are gorgeous. Any man would be luck to have you. Happy that you and your ex are speaking, that helps in…

When I was a teenager, Led Zeppelin was my favorite band.

Pretty!

Request sent! :)

Its hard sitting at a desk all day! Feel free to add me! :)

I'm 51 yo, 5'8.5", 133pds, small frame. Loss maybe 5 pds.

It is no fun when pain limits your workouts and quality of life. Welcome!

I have a male and female jack russell terrier and a female corgi.

Northern California

I have 13.5 calves and my thighs aren't very big so it's noticeable that my calves are larger! Always have been complimented on my legs, also 5'9" so I have long legs.

Look forward to chatting with you and reading your posts!

Welcome and you must be excited for the big day!

I am at 1220 calories a day before exercise. I eat anywhere from 70-80 grams of protein (I like protein bars w/ 30 grams of protein for breakfast) a day and 25-35 grams of fiber a day. Not hungry. Protein and Fiber both really filling. Chia seeds are good source of protein/fiber to put in smoothie also..

One thing my doctor told me to lose weight is you need to have 70-80 grams of protein a day and 25-35 grams of fiber a day and 8-10 glasses of water. It works for me! :)

I love the group idea, also!

Round Table has personal pizzas with 4 small slices. They run usually under 50 calories per slice. It's a good deal. It's great for not having too much left over and having small portion sizes.

You have to be more specific for example, what kind of meat? chicken, roast beef. What kind of salad? type in spinach salad, etc. Be specific when adding in each food and see what happens.

Mine did. As I lost weight, I lost fat.

I usually am good during the week with food and exercise and my weekends are for going off with food (a bit) and exercise. I still lose weight. Good luck to you!

Between 8-10 glasses. I don't drink anything else. I add lime juice to it sometimes. I like it very cold and with ice.

Yes, it is. soda takes the enamel off of your teeth and eats the lining of your stomach. The artifical sweeteners actually make you crave more sweets and defeats the "diet" effects.

This is a great website if you use it, you will have success. You can make friends. I use a pedometer from morning to night to track my steps and try to do 10,000. Keep a positive mind set and if you fall off, try to get back on and don't beat yourself up, tomorrow is another day :smile: Add me as a friend if you would…

I drink sparkling water instead of soda, works great for the fizzy taste. Good luck on weight loss and congrats on the wedding.

I do that too sometimes, I just wait it out! It can be 2-3 weeks. Sometimes if I go off my eating regime, it will kick me back into gear of losing weight again, sounds weird but it actually works. Good luck to you.
