There are only one or two that I have had the opportunity to get to know. Many are great motivators but I have not had the time to get to know them as well.

You have some very nice ideas, and they all point to the fact that it really is the thought that goes into planning. It is not something off of a list that she gave you to buy. Shows you really care. Maybe more men and women should both take this kind of advice.

Thank you all for the suggestions. Definitely need to work on that.

^^^ I agree with you!

I am definitely in agreeance, don't ruin a good piece of meat! :happy:

I have heard about Fitness Singles, but I have yet to check it out. I am definitely not a fan of some of the online dating sites. I never seem to attract people that I am remotely interested in so it seems a waste of time. I have my daughters the majority of the time, work and go to school so I have been a bit limited on…

Tinks A very attractive girl at that! :) nice job!

Confidence is not something I usually have a problem with. I dress up in business clothes and heels everyday so it definitely gives me a confidence boost.

Didn't she forget to teach his children to pray???

I made it 24 hours!!! Minus a small sugar free weathers with about 2 hours to go. I have to say I'm So surprised how easy it really was. There was one point when I could feel My stomach growling but drank Some more green tea and it passed.

Count me in for October. I got a 4 mile run in on Saturday!

So after reading about the ESE and reading the posts on here I am starting to IF. I started fasting last night after dinner and will go until 6pm tonight. The good part is I am at work so I don't have to worry so much about thinking about food and can occupy my time in other ways. Only 9.5 hours left to go!

I will be your buddy, I read the Eat Stop Eat plan this weekend and I am actually fasting today. I went from 6pm last night until 6pm tonight. I am like you, I have cut calories, tried the 6 small meals a day and don't seem to be seeing results. So having read about it I can see that there are benefits to doing it.

Congratulations you are so beautiful. All of your hard work and dedication has paid off. Now you can be the one to inspire others!!!

Congratulations to you! What an amazing accomplishment. Don't feel like you are bragging you were very hard and sweat a lot to get those kind of results. Keep up the hard work and you will reach your goal In no time.

You can do this. We all have times that we get off track. Surrounding yourself with people who have the same goals and will help you be accountable is very helpful. Are you new to this site or just coming back? There is a lot of information and very knowledgeable people here to help you on your journey! Best of luck.

What an amazing transformation!!! Despite all of the life changes you had going on you were still able to stick with it. Congratulations to you, you are an inspiration.

Love this thread!!! So my girlfriend and I had been downtown for drinks and it was about 2 in the morning. We are in the parking garage and pull up to the gate where you pay. She sticks the ticket in and it spits it back out. She did this multiple times and we start wondering how we are going to get the car out of the…

My favorite apps: 1. Nike + Running 2. Pandora 3. Angry Birds 4. Words with Friends (if you would like to play i am lisako326) 5. MFP (although I wish I could read the board on my app!!!)

That's exactly what I think :)

There are days that I hate running and wish that there was some magic way to be able to run farther or longer but I haven't found that yet. I have followed the couch to 10k program that has helped to increase my distance over time. I also use the Nike + running app on my phone. It is fun to compete with friends and with my…

Aww, but look at you and how far you have come. You are getting close to your goal weight. It must feel good even for you to look back and see the results.

That is so true the girls are very honest and tell me all the time if they don't like what I am wearing, my hair is messed up they have no hesitations in telling me so it truly made me feel good.

Great job, all of the hard work has definitely paid off for you. How long has it been since you started?

You look amazing, you can not only see it in your stomach but you arms and legs are much smaller. Great Job!

I am 5'9 and on a very rare occassion one of the shorter ones of this group. I hear the same thing as many of you that I look fine I don't need to lose any weight. I started out my heaviest at 218 a very tight size 18. I refused to go to plus sizes. I am now 198 and a size 14. Even though people say I may look fine I want…

I just started this and I am 2 days in. I can definitely feel it working, My arms and legs are sore. I agree though that she doesn't stop talking so after the first time I turn the volume down and just do the exercises. I use the 5lb weights.

I am definitely not a fan of body hair. Hair on the legs is one thing but prefer a smooth chest and definitely no back hair!!!

Well you are far from old, but I would agree I would rather be "older" then "Fat"! Congrats on the NSV
