This seems dangerous... I don't think I could stop at one piece of chocolate! :laugh: Sounds great, though!

Cool, thanks! Maybe this is the key to breaking my plateau!

TPAM is an inspiration to us all!

Yes, definitely! Increase in self confidence + decrease in flesh in the way = better sex! :smile:

Awwe thanks for your kind complements! :blushing: Thats why I picked him! (just kidding! :laugh: ) Seriously, he is a wonderful man.:love:

Here is a picture from January 2008 and my first trip wedding gown shopping. I was so depressed because nothing looked good. This is the picture that started me on my weight loss journey. In March, I went wedding gown shopping again. I fell in love with a dress, but unfortunately, the biggest size it came in was a 16. It…

Thats a good one too! Thanks! :flowerforyou:

Thank You :smile: One of my greatest fears is that I won't be taken seriously as a professional if I am overweight. I really appreciate your kind words!

I really do know where you are coming from on this. College was rough on me and I used food as comfort. Now, I am a graduating Dietician who is still about 40 pounds overweight. Before I started MFP, I was about 95 pounds overweight. What I have been doing is documenting my weight loss journey through pictures so I can…

I find quotes to be very motivational. I pasted in part of my (large) collection in hopes that they might be able to motivate someone else, too. Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday! -Kelly :flowerforyou: Success is not a race, be patient. Success leads to success. Success is always a work in progress. Success doesn't…

This sure made me laugh... enjoy:flowerforyou: Twas the month after Christmas and all through the house Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste. All the holiday parties had gone to my waist. When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store (less a…

Melissa is getting healthy for herself. That is the best reason ever! Her profile picture is very cute, too!

Some good ideas --- Thanks!

The dietician recommended amount of protein for an individual is .8-1 gram of protein per kg of body weight (1 kg = 2.2 pounds) If you are elderly, at high risk, sick, etc, this number will increase.

If you consume protein in excess of your caloric and protein needs, the extra protein will not be stored as protein. Unfortunately such extra protein is converted to and stored as fat. As a result, if individuals consume large amounts of extra protein in addition to their regular dietary intake, any weight gain would very…

Isn't that a wonderful feeling!? :flowerforyou:

How about "Green Acres" ? :laugh:

Laura's faith in God is very admirable. I also love the fact that she seems to care so muc h for her family.

I have had a hard time overcoming my emotions lately and have lost motivation to do much. I just got married in the end of December, but my husband and I do not even live in the same state! To make a long story short, when we initially planned the wedding, I was supposed to graduate college in the beginning of December.…

Tomorrow is a new day. Just learn from this and move on, don't worry about it too much. Good Luck!

I just had to share some of these with you guys: Here is a picture of me and my sister before all the mayhem: The game my sister came up with for my shower consisted of bags of clothes from St. Vinneys. Everyone was split into 4 groups and the group that dressed me the best for my "Honeymoon" won the prize. Here is a…

The first thing my dad said when he saw me is "Kelly, your face shrunk!" Hahaha, you have to love men :laugh:

Thanks ladies... you all are a boost to my ego! :embarassed:

Back in March, I went wedding gown shopping. I fell in love with a dress, but unfortunately, the biggest size it came in was a 16. It wasn't close to zipping, and I was heartbroken. I talked to the seamstress at the gown shop to see if it was possible to get it altered to fit me in case I couldn't lose any weight. She…

hehehe, yes of course it is a good thing, but it also means I have so much to do before Christmas!

Yikes!! Don't say that! That means my wedding is just around the corner too!!!

Happy Birthday! Are you going to do something nice for yourself?

Amen, sister! Way to say it! :drinker: Heres to a successful weekend! :drinker:

Gooooooooo BLACK!!!! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
