Thank you everyone it is great hearing everyones story and knowing I'm not alone and I can do it if you can do it! My girls are the loves of my life and I am so grateful for them, now I need to become a healthier person so I can be the best mom I can to them!

if you don't eat your exercise calories you will lose more weight to begin with but then your body will just stop. you will have a harder time getting it off and it will come back a lot easier. trust me i have doing this for a while, slow and steady wins the race, sometimes i eat all my calories, but i always eat at least…

Stay healthy, not only for yourself but for your spouse. your mood is lighter and your confidence is stronger.

Thanks everyone it is so nice to get help from people who understand my situation:)

thanks everyone. its good to have opinions other than just my husband. I have been doing good counting calories and I'm going to keep it up. :smile:

I think we've all been there. loosing weight is a very emotional process. I have felt like giving up and I have given up a lot of times. you are defiantly not alone. My mom always told me a story about a mule that was being buried alive (which is how we all feel sometimes) instead of letting the dirt bury him he would…

yay! congrats! :flowerforyou:

Happy your back:happy:

candy yams and pecan pie... sweet tooth!

Congrats! :happy:

You can do it! :happy: :heart: :happy:

I have a polar F6 and I love it! I highly recommend it:happy:

I have a Polar f6. It was $80. I really love it. last year when i bought it, I asked the same question here on the site and a lot of people hd and loved thier polars. so I took that and got one. and Ive been very happy with it. you change the user settings strap on the chest strap and hit start. It was simple and very…

is this a group for people who need to loose more than 100 pounds? cuz thats me:)

I lost 10 pounds in my first week. from my experience, I loose a lot in the first two weeks and then it goes down to 1 or 2 pounds a week.

Anything sweet, I have a serious sweet tooth. I especially can't say no to rice krispy treats... I can't even say those two words without going to the kitchen :grumble:

I'm tempted too, mostly I am tempted by Ali. but, I'm just to scared to follow through with it. Dang pills!! :explode:

thanks everyone. I will check all of that:heart:

Definitely eat your exercise calories! you are right you will slow your metabolism if you don't. :happy:

I did customize it. so I guess I can eat a little more:happy: nothing wrong with that!

I'm the same way. I only change it every 5 pounds. nothing worse than moving it back. everyone is different though. do what makes you feel like your accomplishing something:smile:
