When my friends started an "intervention" for me. :) They basically thought I looked like a hobo too! Then I went to Goodwill and got some stuff. Was too expensive to get a whole new wardrobe every few months. And when I went down another size, I'd take the clothes that were too big to Goodwill. Worked for me! :)

Awww...didn't mean to make you wanna cry! Me and my fam are huge dog lovers and have been a little partial to boxers. I will get another...someday. Until then, I spoil everyone else's dogs! :)

That's me...I have found in this journey that the only way I can succeed is to be brutally honest, and that included showing myself "warts and all"! :) The furry baby was my dog Laila. We lost her in June 2013. She was the sweetest dog ever and gave great hugs! She used to love hugging me during the cool down portion of…

I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism for well over 10 years. I am on meds too. It has had to be changed a couple times since I have started losing weight. As soon as my weight loss comes to a screeching halt and I get all the typical symptoms, I get in to see my doc and have him do a blood test. Most times I am in…

Pick something you think would be fun to try. And of course check with your doc, to make sure it's ok. I started with Richard Simmons' DVD's cuz it was more like dancing than "work". Then moved onto the Biggest Loser Cardio Max DVD's, when the low impact stuff got boring and wasn't difficult anymore. Then I tried Jillian…

You. Are. AWESOME!!! :smile:

Colorig mandalas...writing short stories...crocheting...writing letters (totalling lost art form!)...

I could never do it, but don't mind others that do.

Love it!!!! :)))

bumpin' for later! looks fab!!

yummy!!!

Looking fabulous! Great work!!! :D

Bahahaha!!! :laugh:

I do not cut them up, just grab one and start munching!! :happy: My daughter is a peel-eater too!!!

Bahaha!! Exactly!!! Sounds to me like the gal was trying to back pedal and just kept getting in deeper and deeper...I would have probably started chuckling at her social ineptness. Keep working girl. I'm sure the positives you get on this site FAR outweigh this negative!! :D

Fabulous!!! Congrats!!

Fabulous!! Congrats on such a great NSV!!!

Remember to pace yourself. Three ten-minute walks are just as good one 30-minute walk. Your endurance will increase again. And as for gaining some of the weight back, just look at the big picture - you are still under overall. Best of luck to you! **hugs**

I like the idea of teaching kids (or adults, for that matter) many different cultures and religions. Teaches them to be tolerant and respectful of others, even if they are different from yourself. I have met folks from many different walks of life and it has taught me so much and made me a better person.

I only track it because every time I am over in sodium, I swell up big time. I just seem to be more sensitive to getting too much sodium. I have noticed it does not affect others in the least. Just like everything else about diet, nutrition and exercise: it varies, depending on who you ask. Not worried about my BP, as I…

Exactly!!!! :D

I take mine before bed every night...mainly cuz that's about the only thing that helped me remember to take it! :D I don't eat after 7 and go to bed around 10...

I have had hypothyroidism for over ten years and have been on the same med (as you) for that long. I have been losing weight since October 2010. Have had no issues with side effects over the years. I have had a little bit of issues losing weight - every so often, when I would hit a plateau (or start gaining) for more than…

Now I know where my daughter got her oppositional defiance from!!!! :D

Curiousity got me....

You. Are. AWESOME!!! Cheering your success!!! :D

Yep, been doing that all along. But I have been trying to eat more protein and fewer carbs (this one is the hardest for me) lately as I have only a few pounds left to lose and that (as expected) has gotten harder.

Dee - you read my mind!!! :D

I am sooooo proud to be a part of this community, I would get one in every color offered! :happy:

I just started 30DS Sunday, so today will be day 3 of the first level. So far not too bad, but I just got done doing Ripped in 30 and that was AWESOME!!!
