Awesome job! :flowerforyou: I definitely agree that you need to reward yourself. My rewards up until now have been "shopping my closet" and finding great things to wear that I haven't been able to wear, but my next goal is 6 lbs away and it will be a massage! Celebrate each small victory! You ARE well on your way to great…

Great job! What an accomplishment!

Finished day 3 last night and am not as sore this morning as I have been the last two days! :D It's still tough for me to get through the entire circuit, but thanks to this group I am pushing myself. So glad we have this group. It's keeping me from giving up. Day 4 is tonight!

I sent a friend request/message, too! I'm aiming for 17 lbs lost. Sounds like a lot, but I would be ecstatic to enter 2013 almost halfway to goal! :D Let's do this, everyone! I don't want the holidays to take me off course. To a healthy and fit New Year...

Today will be day 3 of Level 1 for me. Day 2 has had me sore all over. Hoping I can get through day 3 if this soreness continues. I will do the best I can, but I am sad that I am so "undertoned." :( I'm just waiting for day 7 or 8 where this doesn't feel so tough for me. (I know, I know, then I'll be starting level 2 which…

Sure, I'm in! I've pretty much taken chocolate out of my diet; however, a single rich chocolate candy (usually 1 Godiva Gem) is my indulgence every so often (lately about once a week). I would love to go an entire month without needing that little indulgence. Let's do this!

Great job! Congrats! Love the tat as well! :)

Awesome! You were beautiful before, but are absolutely stunning now! Congratulations on your hard work and determination. I needed some inspiration today and you definitely did that for me. :) Thanks for the reminder to stay the course.

Okay, to be honest, this scares me. I've watched clips from the DVD and thought, "I could never do that." But I reserved a copy at my local bookstore yesterday and will go pick up the DVD today. I guess I just need to be that little engine who could and tell myself I THINK I CAN until I KNOW I CAN becomes a reality. This…

Normally, I would post on Monday, but I'm celebrating onederland today! Thanks for helping me do this. A long way yet to go, but this 10 lbs is a great push. Thanks again everyone for keeping me on track. Beach163 weight loss 3 lbs slow but working on it Alicia0386: 142.8 Weight Loss: 2 lbs AlexandriaSyk CW: 172 Balance79…

Teresa, You and your husband are a fabulous looking couple! Your blog made me tear up not once, but several times as I felt like your story is what I want mine to be like in the future. My hubby is wonderfully supportive, but hasn't made the decision to accompany me on this journey...YET. Your story inspires me not only to…

WTG hubby! Awesome job. Since he lost the weight over five years, I'm willing to bet this has truly been a lifestyle change that will allow him to keep the weight off! :) Thanks for the inspiration and the reminder that, however slow it may seem, there is success waiting at the end of this journey!

Until four months ago, I would have said hands down NY style...then visited Chicago for the first time and went to Giordano's. Now, it's a toss up. Still love NY style pizza, but deep dish style is amazingly yummy! However, since pizza is one of my weaknesses, haven't had a single slice in three months. Probably won't…

Had a crazy weekend, but managed to make mostly healthy choices. Halfway to the lose ten marker and 0.2 away from onederland! Going to work HARD this week to break the 200 barrier!

This!

Great job! Way to rock! Keep it going. :)

AGREED!

As so many others have said, you look amazing! Great job! What an inspiration and a role model you are for your students! Way to go!

I vote BOTH, also! :D Please!

Great job! You look fantastic! Keep it up!

THIS! (which put a smile on hubby's face that hasn't dimmed yet--he's been walking around humming for the last week!)

Add me to those who got teary-eyed reading this wonderful, inspiring post! Congratulations! Your son is lucky to have such a special mom who wants him to be as proud of her as she is of him. Keep up the good work...for yourself! You deserve to be confident and happy!

Great job! You look amazing...can't wait to see your pics when you reach goal.

WAY TO GO! So happy for you! You are well on your way to your goals! I'm closing in on onederland -- just 3 lbs to go -- and hope to get there in the next week or so. Like others, I'll be screaming when that happens. CONGRATS and keep up the great work!

I'm definitely in! I need to be accountable as we are entering the challenging part of the year for me. I'm on target during summer (when I'm not teaching), but as the school year gets more and more hectic, it gets harder for me to stay the course. Here we go!

Frosty73 is right...if only someone could wave $100 in front of you, that would be pretty motivating, wouldn't it? I do something along those lines. Every time I am tempted to indulge in a treat (I love both sweet and salty treats) or buy something I really know I should avoid, I put a dollar into a savings jar instead.…

Okay...I'm in! This is my first post, even though I've been on MFP for two months now. I need to stay focused and determined as we head into my busiest time of year. Ten pounds will put me under 200 for the first time in over five years!! But to do that, I also need to plan well for tournament days (I coach speech &…

My new favorite: Dark Cocoa-Roasted Almonds (Emerald) in 100-calorie packs. Just enough to satisfy my sweet tooth and the chocoholic in me and not enough to make me feel even remotely guilty!
