Way to go! You are doing a great job!

Congrats on your success thus far! Great journey-story, I understand the whole learning part, as well, knowledge is king! It is so hard to restart - I have done it too many times to count!

We go to an independently owned little hole-in-the-wall, too. I always have about a dozen chips with salsa and coctel de camerones (Mexican shrimp cocktail) for my main dish. Very large and filling - I had it yesterday and it makes my mouth water thinking about it today. It is filled with protein rich shrimp, avocado and…

I agree! Good for you! That is living your life! We don't want to give up life and some of the very enjoyable parts of it to lose weight - we work it out! I am happy for you!

I went shopping for dress pants - in May I wore a snug size 16 (US), today I bought size 10 (US) and every pair I tried on was loose in the hips and rear! I am not sure what happened to size 12, it is as if I skipped right over it B)

Good luck and enjoy yourself! And good for you...I could not do it!!

I agree with some of the other posters: after reading these mine seem normal! But this has been a fun read and I came away with great ideas. I am a vinegar lover, so I put vinegar in/on many foods. One of my favorites is vegetables dipped in hummus with vinegar stirred in! I also really like spaghetti with meat & sauce…

Mix Hoisin sauce and lowfat mayonnaise together and either spread on the bun or just dip the chicken burger in it. Very good! I also eat this with tomatoes and cilantro!

Wow!! Congratulations! I am just over 100 days, so I have a ways to go!

I ate dinner at Freddy's this evening and had a steak burger, shared fries with my hubby, dipped my fries in the delicious fry sauce and I didn't stress about it! This is major! I enjoyed the time eating good food with my husband. That was all! Major nsv! I also stayed within my calories for the day.

Staying the course until our wedding anniversary on October 16th. Focusing on dates about a month or 6 weeks in the future seems doable.

True story: My husband & I frequent an area casino, this afternoon I was stopped at the door & asked to show my ID to the new security person. I asked her why, she said ID must be checked on anyone that looks 35 or younger. I am 54!! I have lost 30 of the 50 I want to lose and I wore close-fitting clothing showing my…

Each Sunday evening I prepare 3 or 4 chicken breast (this evening I grilled them), I eat one most days for lunch with a salad and a piece of fruit. I buy a large package of prepared salad mix at my grocery store to make it quick and easy. So by time I add salad dressing, for about 350 calories I have a protein filled…

I like it many different ways, but one way my husband and I like it is sliced or diced with little dry ranch seasoning sprinkled over it. Very good. I also like it with meat or pasta -I, too, can get to where I don't like it as much sometimes (maybe the texture?), so eating it with other foods seems to help.

You guys are making me really, really hungry :o For me it is Nacho Cheese Doritos, Brownies and miniature candy bars.

Today is my 100th day straight of logging!! o:)

Wow!! Look at you two!! Wonderful success!

Congratulations! You look amazing and have a nice shape, as well!

Great ideas! I already use some of these, but this will expand my snacks!

My go-to breakfast that satisfies me and sticks with me until close to lunch is Greek yogurt, either a 5.3 ounce container or about 1/2 a cup from a large container, 1/3 cup of Special K cereal (your favorite variety, as there are several) and about 1/4 cup of blueberries, cut-up strawberries or peaches. Very quick to put…

Keep under (but close to) my calorie goal; work out after work; and work on my posture.

Lemon-garlic seasoned tilapia fillets and new potatoes on the grill, cucumber slices and cucumber salsa on the side. One peppermint pattie for dessert. Yummy!

Absolutely have it checked out...may be nothing, but PLEASE be smart and safe about it.

Good for you! :)

Wow! You look terrific! Just by looking, I think I am similar in goals and at a similar place! I am 54. Good job!

My "hard" workout was ever so slightly easier today :)

Totally awesome!!!

I have an Alta, had a Charge for a while prior, but had trouble with it holding a charge. I love my Alta, I have worn it every day for the three months I have had it. It is slender and you can buy all sorts of different bands for it, if desired. I like that it tracks my sleep, lets me know when I have a text on my iphone,…

Although I am Catholic, I can relate. During lent when we fast and abstain from meat on Fridays, I have absolutely no problem, yet day to day during the remainder of the year it is a challenge. Is shows the power of our mind (and maybe our faith!).

Ok, you win! ;)
