I sent you a friend request and message, Krista. And for anyone else - feel free to add me. I'm on the same path, but I've got over 100 more pounds to go. :]

I just turned 24, and I have right around 200 pounds more to go. I'm back on track and I'm committing myself to getting my health back and enjoying my life. Feel free to add me - I'd love to get to know some more people!

I am so sorry to hear about everything that has happened to NJ and the NYC-area. I can't even begin to imagine what everyone in that area is going through. I just hope that you are are staying safe and that you all get through this stressful weather-filled time. Be strong!

Best of luck to you all! You CAN do this! I'm 23. Feel free to add me if you want. :)

Congratulations! That's a great accomplishment!

Self control is a definite struggle. I've faced it, and I still do to this day. But it takes baby steps. Just as a baby learns to walk by first crawling, and then standing, you've gotta take baby steps. Self control won't just appear out of thin air. You've got to work your way there. Tell yourself no more of the cookies…

Wow, there's a lot of us here. I'm pleasantly surprised, because most of my friends list is all smaller, slightly older women with less than 100 to lose. (Fair warning - I might be adding some, if not all, of you lot. :] ) Anyway, my name is Nicole. I'll be 24 this year, and I've got well over 100 to go still. I've been…

I was up and took it easy today with some crunches and walking.

Skyline is a Cincinnati tradition! I can't stand how greasy Gold Star is. Skyline all the way! Also, I have to say Graeter's Ice Cream, even though its purely sinful. They have the biggest chocolate "chips" I've ever laid eyes on.

I was up at 5 this morning and did 25 minutes of Your Shape: Fitness Evolved on Xbox Kinect. :D Great job everyone!

Where are these coupons at? I definitely need to get some of those!

I'm Nicole, and I'm Julie's cousin. I don't log on until I get to work in the mornings, but I'm getting up at 5 AM to start working out before I head out for work. :)

Hi! I'm Nicole, but a lot of people call me Nika (pronounced Nee-kuh). I'll answer to either one. I'm turning 23 on the 9th of December, and I've lived all around southwestern Ohio. I was born and raised in Cincinnati, moved to Dayton after graduation, and now I live in Hillsboro, but I drive through Wilmington and Batavia…

Sorry about not inputing my weight on Thursday, guys. It completely slipped my mind. I don't have internet like I used to because I just moved. D:

Good morning, everyone! I got everything moved for both myself and grandma, and we're settling in to our home now. With that, I did forget to weigh in before I ate breakfast and drank a soda, so I'm going to weigh in tomorrow because I think its a little skewed. I tried three different times and got three different numbers…

Go Peaches! Thursday is coming up real soon!

My favorite thing about Christmas is the fact that its winter, and that's my favorite season. I also love spending time with family and seeing people I haven't seen in a while. I couldn't care any less about the presents than I do now.

Great job to everyone so far for weighing in, even if you didn't get to see a desired result this week. You still should be very proud for sticking to it! :)

Thursday is weigh-in day, Cath. I'm going to have to use my data from today, though, since I won't be able to access my scale on Thursday-Sunday due to moving. So, I hope that's all right. I'll just go ahead and update myself in the spreadsheet.

Did a 1.5 mile hike through an underground cavern yesterday, and had a salad and a sandwich for lunch with a bag of baked Lay's chips and a banana as a snack. Been really lazy today because of all the steps we had to climb to get out of the cavern (approx. 100 steep steps). Went to Subway tonight for dinner and got a…

Whenever I suggest going for a walk or something to my boyfriend, he turns it down, but I put on my shoes, grab my iPod and do it anyway 'cause I know I gotta do this for me, even if I would enjoy some company every now and again.

I just tried it today with a fully yellow banana, and it was delicious. The only thing is to put it in the freezer for 1-2 hours before you plan on using it - any longer and it gets too hard to use in the blender.

While we're waiting for Monday, how about we all get to know one another? Sounds like something fun to do while we wait. :)

I'm gonna be trying out one ingredient ice cream today. I found the recipe on MFP last night, and I noticed it was gonna be super hot here today, so I'm gonna have it as a snack for after i finished up my yard work. Best part of all is that its under 150 calories!

I might give this a try tomorrow for a snack after working outside in the sun - looks awesome!

Saving this for later!

That spreadsheet looks AWESOME! Let's go Peaches! :D
