  • The first time I lost 50 pounds, gained it all back because I thought the diet was the fix and didn't carry through my maintenance. Gained 50+ back. The second time I lost the 50 pounds I just got pure lazy and didn't want to think or obsess about food anymore. Gained 60+ back. This last time... and it is my last time.....…

  • I lost 90 pounds in 1.5 years and had series problems due to the stuff left over around my belly (rashes, infections etc). In addition to my cardio I do yoga five times a week plus reformer pilates which helped strengthen my core for sure. I finally had a tummy tuck, they took 4 pounds of skin/fat off. It was a serious…

  • I give all my clothes away that are too big. Having them around is a slippery slope for me!
    in So what are you doing with those clothes 1 size too large? Comment by Cherieb42 July 2014
  • I have had great success with yoga and pilates (reformer) instead of the gym which doesn't interest me. If it doesn't interest me, I won't stick with it. Pilates especially works with your own body weight and I do vinyasa flow yoga and my arms and back are very muscular.

  • Feel free to add me! I'm maintaining as well. I lost 85 pounds and last winter gained about 15 back because I stopped tracking. I got back to it in February and lost the weight. This was my 3rd time in my adult life gaining/loosing a large amount of weight but I've kept it off for 3 years this time. It will be my last time!

  • I became a runner when I was 44 after losing 90 pounds. When I started losing weight I found jogging on the treadmill was the best way to burn calories. Then a friend suggested I run outside which I never thought I could do. I did Couch to 5K and went for my first run outside. I was hooked! I was really sore when I started…

  • Dear Billy, First let me congratulate you on your commitment. We all know it is a difficult one. I want to let you know that you can do this! I lost 90 pounds when I was 44 years old. It was my 3rd and final time (I previously gained and lost it twice in my adult life). What I did different this time was focus not only on…

  • Brooks Adreneline all the way! I've tried four other brands and these are by far my favorites!
