Thanks everyone. I have only been doing this now for a couple of months so I am still pretty new to it. I am sleeping pretty hard on the weekends. I do feel that I am sleeping harder. Maybe I just need to wait a couple more months into this new routine and see where I am then.

Bwaaahaaaaahaaa!

You have really great eyes!

Wow, you are such an inspiration. Thank you for posting. Sigh...someday.

My husband and I lift together. We both end up challenging each other to go harder. It's pretty cool because we are able to watch eachother's form and make sure our spouse stays safe. It is also nice to have a bit of a rest between sets as we take turns.

Catch me while you can. I am only in my 20s for about another 2 months! Feel free to add me.

First of all, Damn, you look great. There is such a huge difference in your pictures. Second, damn, those are some painful stories. Don't give up! It is not pointless to continue. You are becoming healthier and more fit for your own quality of life. People can be mean and ignorant. And I don't know if it is possible to…

Bumb, that looks really moist and tasty. Do you have the nutrition per serving handy?

You are welcome to add me. I just started again a couple of weeks ago. Tracking is so helpful. I try to walk 4-5 times a week and I just started lifting weights. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/654536-in-place-of-a-road-map-2-0-revised-7-2-12 This thread has been helpful for me.

Yes, Yes, and Yes!

oooooo the Tough Mudder would be fun. I want to do that.

Men with blow-up dolls are soooooo SEXY! You know what would be even better is if the doll was dressed as a clown. I would just melt...

What about on Clydesdales?

Wow, can I be you (in a non-creepy way)? :happy:

Your strength!

I changed mine to 40C/30P/30F. I have been eating a lot of fresh fruit and veges so I am always way over on my carbs and under on my protein and fat. I have been trying add more in a healthy way but I don't want to eat tons of meat and beans just add more carbs. So I have started adding tofu and protein powder to my…

I didn't read through the thread to see if someone already suggested this, so if this is a repeat, I apologize. If you make fruit smoothies at all (that is what I have for breakfast) than put some in your smoothy. Zucchini is so mild, the fruit flavors cover it all. Plus it means that an extra vegetable serving was snuck…

Me too. I just came back to MFP last week and really feeling motivated. Good job with your exercise.

So I am going to go ahead and sound like a creep...I want to friend you all just so I can look at your pictures...when I need reminding that it is possible. I clocked in recently at my highest at 305 and I would like to get down to 135-145. Wish me luck! And total congratulations to all of you for your hard work and…

Wow, basically all I need to say is "ditto" at laurarichards. Everything she said works for me too right down to my age. Hi, I am Tanya, and I am 29, turning 30 in October. And I want to live better, be energetic, and dammit, be able to paint my own toes :happy: . I am also wanting to have kids soon and I want to be a good…

I am going to buy a slow cooker tomorrow. i have got to keep track of this.

Thanks everyone. It helps to know that I am not overreacting and to share.

Working on a masters in Intercultural Relations.

This topic is like to me is like a drug to me! I am an Interculturalist in the middle of my graduate program and I have also experienced social rejection due to my cultural background and responses do not meet societies expectations as a white, female. I grew up in Africa.

You are sooo close. I am 28.
