Wear that coat like the boss you are :) Congratulations!

Yes, this is the one thing I always tell people when they ask about my weight loss! It surprises me how much better my balance is!

Where did you find these? My daughter is getting married next month - how fun would it be to have these?! Thanks!

In the evening or weekends my primary snacks are beef jerky, nuts - Blue Diamond Bold Salt and Vinegar flavored almonds are my favorite, dried apricots, popcorn, dry cereal, instant hot chocolate with either a tablespoon-ish of heavy cream or marshmallows or chocolate candy of some type. Kinda depends upon if I want sweet…

I went jeans shopping this weekend and bought a size eight, in May I wore a 16! Also, I am 30 lbs under my driver's license weight that I probably lied about.

One of the things that has helped me is getting back to working out. I did serious workouts all weekend and feel like my old self again. It is truly difficult, I know from too many past experiences. Start with working out and go from there. I know you will get it...makes me think of Our Lady of Weight Loss..all is…

The Wheat Capital of the World - Kansas!

It was a good year overall! I lost 40 lbs, am fit as ever, two of my children become engaged to wonderful life partners, and my husband had a huge success at work (my work is going well, too). I am so excited for 2017! We have two weddings coming and who knows what else! Blessings to all of you!

Congratulations! You look terrific! And thanks for the encouragement - I honestly feel more encouraged by your words "believe in yourself". Thank you and Happy New Year!

Same here and it has worked wonderfully. I have been satisfied and consistently lost weight to 40lbs down since May. I have less than 15 to go (and may or may not lose it)!

I had gone to my Dr. and my fasting blood sugar was 109, cholesterol was elevated and blood pressure high. I have a son who is also an MD and he said that my health was still in my control at this time and that it is ridiculous to have lifelong serious health issues because I didn't want to work out or lose 20 lbs.…

Congratulations! That is terrific progress and you must feel so much healthier! Hope 2017 is successful for you, as well.

My current mini-goal is to get thru the next three weeks or so without gaining weight! :) the Holidays can be tricky!

I will check them out!

Wow! Congratulations! You look terrific; nice job!

Wow...you guys are amazing! I have a desk job and a full, bountiful life and I average 11,000 steps a day using a Fitbit Alta which I love.

I bought a designer dress on clearance to wear to a cousin's wedding, which was yesterday, in my original goal size...it looked very smart and I felt very pretty. After wearing it all day and not even unzipping it to take off (!) I realized it is actually too big B)

Yep...I am a sleeve or collar wiper, as well :) (only when exercising, mind you)

You sound like me! Same age, same outcomes and about the same weight loss! :) We are just getting better all the time!

It is in my power! I love this - so many times it has reminded me I can stop eating, not eat, walk right by, keep working out, etc. It causes me to stand up straight and square my shoulders: it is in my power!

Same here - I have worn it constantly (except in water) since I purchased it in May. I love it and feel it is fairly accurate. In that time I have lost 35lbs logging my food intake and making sure I meet my Fitbit goals!

Yes! I work with all women and this is so true!! I wondered If I am the only one!

I am down 30+ pounds since May 15th :) I would like to lose about 15 more, but am in no hurry. This site/app has been a godsend! Thank you all for continued support and congratulations on your successes!

Interesting thread read, I am not there yet (this time), but have been in the past and these are all good ideas for the future me. Just an observation in myself: two events that seem to precede me falling off the wagon are a holiday when I have eaten too much or when my allergies are bad. I am post menopausal, and I am…

I can see a wonderful change! :smiley: Keep going - you are making great progress!

Wow! Great job - congratulations!

Great job, girl!! :) I also agree with taking care of yourself first. Taking care - words to not take flippantly, I am in my mid 50's and just now get that!

Great job; it is inspirational! You are beautiful and I love your haircut!

Such a great attitude and physical change! You look great!
