Sugar alcohols are listed as such on nutritional information...if it's says "sugar", it's sugar. Some of the foods in the database have been put in with the fiber and sugar alcohols already subtracted, but I always check it against my food information on the package...if I can't find one that has already had it deducted, I…

In the first pic, I was around 290. Second pic was a couple of months ago at my 20th high school reunion, at 157. Still have about 10 to go to goal, but I feel great!

I kick myself for not keeping a pair of 24 pants to compare, but a great idea to just go find a size at a store and take a pic :D

As soon as I couldn't fit in them anymore, I gave them away as fast as I could find someone to use them. I didn't want the excuse that I had clothes that I could wear if I gained any back. I am lucky, and our preachers wife has also started losing and is right behind me in size, so I give them to her, but at first, I…

What the!?!?! I just gained 10 pounds thinking about it...thanks... ;)

Muscle-y :D

How to be independant. She was single for the majority of my childhood. When we left my stepfather in the middle of the night, heading for a women's shelter, she had 4 kids, no job, no license, and only a high school education. By the time I was in high school, she had built a house, went back to school, and had a great…

Wow, what isn't would be an easier question to answer!

Sleeping with the Enemy...since Psycho was taken ;)

I got this from another person's post: 1) Go to an image-hosting site (for example, photobucket or tinypic- photobucket requires making an account). Upload your picture. To do this, click the button that says "Browse" and choose your photo from there. When you have selected your photo and clicked "OK", click the UPLOAD…

The first pic is a couple of years ago, I was around 300 lbs. The second was last month, at 157 lbs. (I'm the one in the middle, if you can't tell, lol) Only a few more pounds till goal!

Wow, you look awesome! Congrats on your first victory, I know you feel so much better!

My Econ teacher use to tell us horror stories about working in a meat packing plant. He told us that the vats that they used to process the "meat" for the hotdogs was left open all night, every night, while the plant was closed. During the night, the rats would climb into it to eat, and crap all over it. In the morning,…

When I was a kid, we went for milkshakes. I got a strawberry one, and for some reason didn't have the lid on my cup. It was dark and the windows were down in the car...I felt something hit me but didn't think anything of it. So, I get to the end of my milkshake, and thinking that there was a big ol strawberry in the bottom…

happy!

Give boiled eggs to the dog...like, ever...

flavored coffee, sugar free jello or pudding, or some sugar free candy...but mostly coffee because I feel less guilty, lol

I was a 42 DD...now a 36 C...I hope it stops there! I've lost all that I want to from my back, chest and arms, wish there was a way to pass a message on to the rest of the fat in my legs, thighs, butt, and belly that it's their turn to cut and run!

I'm pretty lucky...I have won a go cart, an Ipad, and $1000 from various food shows that I've attended. At my daughter's school this past fall, at the fall fest, I won an Ipod touch and a basket with a Scentsy warmer, scents, and room spray. And then on Black Friday this past November, I won the $1000 gift card from our…

I'm afraid of heights and have terrible bouts of motion sickness in anything that moves, but cannot pass up a rollercoaster of any kind.

55?

wild and fun kinda guy :)

10- you got that sexy librarian thing going on with the glasses and red lips...rock it girl!

thanks! And 9 for looking so gorgeously young!

Heels do amazing things...and it helps that my hubby is the same height as I am under normal circumstances ;) Love your red lips!

As many times as you've thought about working out today, you could have been done by now.

jbpi- 9 Like the facial hair :D

That's too funny, I noticed that too after posting the pics. My husband is more of a shoe horse than clothes horse...he has so many tennis shoes, but the same ol clothes, but of course, he can still FIT in all of his, so I guess that's a good thing! I guess he figures since we have had to spend so much with my downsizing…

I didn't have surgery, just a Dr's help with changing my eating :D Thank you, and good luck to you! If I can do it, anyone can!

The reunion was awesome, it's the first one that I had been to, and it was great to have the confidence of being in the shape that I am now. Thanks!
