Stuck working from home and attempting to not eat the contents of my fridge on the first day

That's a huge accomplishment! Way to go!

I quit smoking over 6 weeks and feel awesome! And it's day 16 of no soda. The best part is that I've lost 10 pounds in the last month and have recommitted myself to been healthy. People keep commenting on how I seem to be glowing. It's amazing how much better my skin looks without all the nasty smoking effects and…

I applied for additional life insurance at work and was denied because of my weight. The stark reality of knowing my family couldn't get the extra $500,000 if I died just because I was overweight was soul crushing. This moment was just what I needed to get motivated. Since then, I have quit smoking, and lost almost 40…

Wow! What great responses. Thanks for all the advice. It has given me a much better perspective. He never commented when I gained 50 pounds, so I guess I need to suck it up. I know he loves me regardless of what I look like and that's all that really matters at the end of the day. Have a great Friday everyone!

I have some beautiful black banana republic leather pants that I haven't worn in 10 years. I think I need to break them out at Christmas! I plan on being down 20 pounds from where I am today on 12/25. :)

I'm at 223 and plan to be 210 by Valentine's Day! I love having a solid short term goal. It really helps with the motivation. I recently quit smoking and I definitely need to track my food to not gain any more weight. Have a great day everyone!!! Kara

I'm in! I'm currently at 223 and want to be down 13 pounds to 210 by Valentine's day. We can do this!!!

That sounds awesome! I'm going to look for them at the store. Thanks for sharing. :)

really??? how can anyone argue against your amazing weight loss results???? she is obviously super jealous. WAY TO GO! YOU ROCK!

My aunt (who is super slim) told me she brushes her teeth right after dinner and that makes her stop eating. It's worked for me.

That is fantastic!!! Way to go!!!

What a great idea! That sounds delicious.

Here's my cardio workout for the treadmill... Raise ramp to maximum uphill and slow walk (almost a lunge) for 2 minutes. Then lower the ramp and run for 2 minutes. Take 1 minute to bring your heart rate down and then start over. Repeat 4 more times (equals a 20 minute session). Be warned... sounds easy but it will kick…
