I actually buy extra bananas so that I can freeze them when they start to over ripen (??) I slice the overripe bananas into freezer bags or containers and leave in the freezer. When I want a snack I take out a package throw the frozen bananas into the food processor add 2% milk (just enough to make everything blend) and a…

I must have smoked something cause I forgot to put my start weight....4/1 228...hope everyone has a great week!!!

I am so in....I have been struggling (with myself) the past few weeks. I need all the help I can get to get back on track! Everyone feel free to add me...We can do this!

The best advise I can give is staying away from processed foods. I used to eat the Lean Cusines etc. and pre-packaged foods until I started reading the sodium amounts. I also stopped the diet soda, made a huge difference. Hope this helps.

You are stunning! Great job and what a wonderful NSV!!

bump....I want some right Now!! :)

Great job...Congrats on your 38lbs gone :)

"I know my story is nowhere near as inspiring as some. I know my weight gain was not as high or my weight loss as dramatic as a lot of people here." You saved your own life....that is pretty damn inspiring! Great Job :)

Wow...you really look 15 years younger!!! Great job!

Week 3 - 225.2 Hope everyone has a great week!

You look Awesome (and 10 years younger:) )

This is also great to make banana ice cream...yummy! I just throw the frozen banana into the my chopper add a little fat free milk and a teaspoon of pb, my daughter and I love this as a snack:)

I'm in.....just did day 1 level 1 this morning :) Question: for those of us that are bigger....does anyone have a hard time with boobs & stomach pain from jumping jacks and jump rope?? It feels like someone is trying to pull mine off!

Week 2 - 226.2 I am so excited I lost 2.6 lbs and that is with TOM visiting :) Great job everyone!!

bump - I am starting this tomorrow :)

I stopped drinking diet cokes about a month ago....that and coffee was all I lived on for beverages. I have since started drinking at least 90 oz of water a day and have come to love it (before I would go 6 months without any water because I hated it) The other day after work I felt run down, my body hurt, and I was asleep…

I was not so suprised to see how healthy my skin became after cutting out processed food/dt. sodas etc.....however I was suprised to see that my 4 year old daughters already beautiful skin started glowing and looks so refreshed! It hurts to realize that MY choices before was taking that away from her!

Thanks everyone!!! I think a protein/fruit shake for breakfast sounds great :)

I just tried the Vita-tops this week as an evening snack....YUMMY!! Another added benifit is I "go" like never before the next morning there is a good amount of fiber in those suckers and the chocolate ones are awesome :)

I tried that diet years ago when I was a teen....I lost about 15lbs, but gained it right back when I stopped. And talk about BORING!! Seriously, don't think of this as a diet (those just don't work) Eating balanced foods packed with nutrients is so much more exciting and yummy than rice and chicken. Have fun with your…

Great job!! Those are the best things to notice (not the #'s on the scale) Keep up the great work!

You guys are adorable! I got my 5 votes in!! :)

Ok first weigh in here.....week 1 - 2/28/11 228.8 lbs Hope everyone has an awesome week! Thanks Kimberly

That is awesome....it is great to be fixing the "inside" as much as the outside:) Keep up the awesome work.

This is a yummy recipe....the only thing I do different is I make my own salsa to try and cut even more sodium.....So nice sitting there just waiting for you to get home and eat :)

Only one word needed.....STUD!!! Great job!
