awesome job, hun! my start weight was 242 as well, though i'm several inches shorter than you. welcome to the board!

i can't believe that is only 20 pounds! you can REALLY see a difference in the side-by-side shots.

hahahahaha! :laugh:

oh my god, that looks amazeballs. i'm totally making that some day. every christmas i make these little tarts that have a ginger snap base, a whipped pumpkin custard-type filling, and candied cranberries on top. i might have to forego those this year though and try that paradise pumpkin pie recipe...

okay, i'll have a look. this recipe sounds great. never tried leek before though.

please, all the boobs on that show were plastic.

sounds good! is the calorie information you gave for the original recipe, or for the substitutions you made? also, do you think it would work if splenda brown sugar was used?

what does the recipe mean by 1/2 a package of refrigerated pie dough? i don't think i've ever seen that here. do they mean one of those frozen pie crusts?

what was your starting weight and your height?

what was/is your weight?

reese's peanut butter cups cereal........ *drools*

true that! :happy: anyway, maybe it's on the menu at denny's because it's an american chain? i've never seen scrambled eggs with cheese on a menu, but i make it at home from time to time.

i'll workout this time around! and probably try to eat less at christmas dinner. i always hate myself for piling so much on my plate, and feel full and gross the rest of the evening, so.

milk is considered a dairy, and is not meant to count towards your daily fluids (this from a nurse). i do count tea and coffee, and other water-based beverages that have no calories (ie diet nestea).

glad you posted this, i've had this problem too (being over in sugar). today i had toast with cream cheese and an orange for breakfast, and it said at that point i was already at my sugar limit. like how can that be possible?!?!

awesome! congrats!!!!!!

you look great, and i like your pink bra!

you had a pretty face in all the pictures, but the red hair looks amazing, and really brings out your eyes. way to go!

i'm stephanie. i'm manless, babyless, and jobless (just graduated from university).

but tacos are healthy! there's usually green peppers on them and stuff. :tongue:

awesome! that must feel great.

you're not going to lick us, are you?

i've heard night time snacks are terrible for weight loss and that you're not supposed to eat after dinner, but if i don't i'm starving and can't sleep. i like to have a fibre 1 brownie.

your starting stats were very similar to mine, so your story is very inspiring. you look great, congrats on your weigh loss!

hey girls. i'm 30, and as of this past friday, i'm 240.

no, because going to the store and cleaning the house doesn't count as cardiovascular activity for me.

1) maybe those women don't give a **** what men like 2) it's a gym. maybe it's sweat you're smelling.

dude, you need a new t-shirt ;)

howdy! i'm in southwestern ontario.

you all look so amazing, well done!
