Me too! I 'fell off the wagon' and stopped logging in for a year and a half. Came back last week and a large portion of the friends I had made no longer log in.

FANTASTIC!

AMAZING!!

I gave up sodas completely for 9 weeks (the longest ever in my life). I needed that de-tox time. I love regular DP and coke. I do partake now occasionally. I also have an addictive personality with regard to them, but I found that if I have one small bottle in the fridge, I can take sips out of it through the day. I leave…

WONDERFUL ONEderland!!

Feel free to add me.

Me too. I just want to feel confident in ANY bathing suit.

Who here has 'white coat syndrome'? My bp is high when I go to the doctor (around 145/80). Reason: I hate going to the doctor, and can feel the stress building in me when I walk through the door. Then when it is time to take the bp reading, I get even more stressed because I know it's going to give a high reading and I'll…

WOO-HOO you look GREAT. AND you are now in ONEderland! AMAZING transformation!

WOW -- doesn't look like the same person!

What a transformation!

I switched to La Croix or Perrier. I like the fizzy stuff, and that helped. I did not give up my morning coffee, so that helped with caffeine withdrawal.

I ain't goin' anywhere NEAR a scale until next week. It took me six weeks to be able to (barely) zip up a pair of jeans I had not fit into for 3 years. That was Dec 24. Then the big Christmas Pig Out took place. Dec. 26 I could not even BEGIN to zip up those jeans. I pigged out on CARBS and CRAP. The only healthy thing was…

You look fantastic!

49 --- feel free to add me :flowerforyou:

WOW what a difference! Looks like a lot more than 32 lost!

Very pretty dress! Even at my skinniest I have never been able to carry off a sleeveless dress. I guess my goal is something similar with sleeves -- I like the belted waist!

WOW, you look awesome. Congrats on ONEderland!

DEFINITELY A DIFFERENCE! GREAT JOB!

DA-YAM!!!

FANTASTIC! This morning I was 202. I haven't seen ONEderland in over 3 years. I'm gonna get there!

FANTASTIC!

I am so sorry. She was beautiful. I have had dogs in my life since I left home at 18. I was not allowed pets as a child. I have not owned a Huskey, but one of my 'babies' was a giant Malamute named MATEY. He lived until he was 8 years old. They have such a short life span! I have also had a Dobermann, a German Shepherd, an…

You look FANTASTIC! What a difference!

Feel free to add me. Little things can make a big difference. I have given up soda and just drink water now. You could start with something like that and then add a bit of walking. Little steps first. You have conquered the biggest hurdle: you have acknowledged how serious the problem is. Good luck and so sorry for your…

Um..... I live in Tennessee and I'm a Sodaholic (35 years of a 6-pack of DP/coke a day), hence TennesseeSodaholic! Not much imagination, I know. Today makes 6 weeks and 3 days without soda!

FANTASTIC!!

I am 48 years old. I was addicted to sodas for 35 years. A 6-pack a day of DP/coke. I always kidded myself that I was not addicted. When I would get serious about losing weight I would try to limit them to one or two a day. That never worked. I had to admit I was addicted and cut them out cold turkey. I never drank water.…

Four years ago I got a great paying job, but I was required to commute 150 miles 5 days a week. That was when my late-night fridge raids started. I was exhausted from all the driving. I no longer had time for the gym. I got all my breakfasts and lunches from the drive-thrus. I would get home and would feel exhausted and…

AWESOME!
