thanks guys...i'm really excited, tho today wasn't the best day for me LOL i'll do better tomorrow, promise!!!!

You've come to the right place for support and encouragement...You CAN do this! Good luck to you!

I officially started Jan 1, but unofficially since September, after I had my baby! And for those wondering about how everything else is going, i couldnt ask for more right now...He and I are definitely finished, getting ready to make it official...I have had so much support, its amazing! I'm ready to move on! I know that…

I weighed in this week, and i'm down 40 POUNDS!!! :bigsmile: i never thought i'd be able to say that...i'm OVER half way to my goal!! 35 pounds to go! Just thought I'd share! :drinker:

OK, I'm loving this!!! I have pretty eyes, great hair, an AWESOME, SEXY shape that could drive a man to distraction!! LOL

Im not sure if I said this before, but I actually have 4 kids, lol...They are amazing! I have 3 boys...7, 4, and 21 months...and a beautiful baby girl, 6 months...They are what keeps me going everyday. I was married for 10 years, and through all the crap, I know that I have the best part of him, and the rest doesnt matter…

Hey! I just got home from work and church and was amazed at all the response on here! Thanks so much for all your kind words and support... Honestly, everyday I feel stronger, and I believe that it's because I have a positive mindset. I refuse to let them tear me down, because if I do, then they've won. They're NOT gonna…

A couple months ago I had posted a topic about how my BEST FRIEND had totally criticized my efforts to lose weight and I just didn't understand why! I know now that shes always been jealous of me and my life and just couldn't stand that I was happy... Here's the kicker.....On March 3, the day before my son's 7th birthday,…

Just to clarify...no I haven't lost that since January...January is when I joined MFP, and I entered the weight that I was in September, after I had my baby. Well, imagine my surprise when I jumped on the scales and found that I was less than I thought! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Ok, so my computer crashed and I've been have MFP withdrawals, LOL...Just to let everyone know that I haven't fallen off the wagon, I'm still hanging in there! We went on a weekend getaway last weekend, thankfully I didn't gain or lose :bigsmile: I'm down 26 pounds and Im loving it!! :heart: :heart: :heart: Just wanted to…

Way to go...youre doing fabulous!!! :heart: :heart: :heart:

Didn't have time for breakfast, went to Tim Hortons, but I only got a diet coke.....it's one o'clock and I still havent had a chance to eat!!:sad: :sad: :sad:

I must say I admire all you pet lovers!! We have a hampster, named Hammer (named by a 4 year old, people!!) , and we recently got a Jack Russell named Roxie....The hampster is great, doesn't bother me at all, but I'm finding that I'm less of a dog person than I thought I was!!! :grumble: :grumble: The dog drives me NUTS!!!…

I have a really hard time on the weekends...my weekend schedule is so crazy, it doesn't allow a lot of time for anything. I just try to be very aware of what I'm eating, even if I'm eating out. I've noticed that the more success I see on the scales and in my clothes, the more it motivates me to be good!!

So as a lot of you know, last week was not the greatest for me...I almost just threw in the towel and gave up. As a result I had gained 2 pounds last week!! :cry: Thanks to all of you (and a lot of work on my part), I weighed in this morning and I lost the 2 pounds that I gained!! :bigsmile: I really feel like I jumped a…

welcome back....don't beat yourself up over that 2-3 pounds....i had a rough week last week, and i gained a couple too, but we just have to get back up and start over!! you can do it!!! :flowerforyou:

Hey all, just wanted to clarify something (not bragging or anything :blushing: ), but I've actually lost about 24 pounds since September...though I gained a couple back this past week :mad: ..... I definitely notice a difference in my body, and other people do, too....I saw a cousin the other night, and she was like…

way to go...your doing awesome! :flowerforyou:

:heart: :heart: :heart: Thanks guys...I really don't know why I let it get to me so bad...I guess it's because I lost my mom last year and my dad about 10 years ago....I've really had to lean on my friends to be there for me, and I just couldn't believe that someone so close to me would say the things she said.... I know I…

OK, here's what happened...i went to a friends house sunday to watch the game...someone passed me the chips, and i kept passing.(yay, me!!) well, as a result of me turning down the evil-ness (lol) my BEST FRIEND totally critcized everything that I've been trying to do for myself lately!!! :noway: She basically told me that…

Piqua, Ohio...home of the Indians!!!

I stopped drinking pop at the first of the year...going from 3-4 cans of Mt Dew a day to LOTS of water!! I've noticed that since doing that, I've had diarehea non stop! :sick: Especially if I eat anything with sugar in it...it goes right through me! Is this normal??? I'm losing weight, so that's great, but I just want to…

I know something that may help you...you can purchase Melatonin, which your body produces naturally to make you sleepy, at any pharmacy...it's safe and inexpensive...i've gotten it at the dollar store for like $2...in fact, my children's doctor recommends it occasionally for the kids to help them fall asleep at night....I…
