GUM. I am addicted to it. It is awesome and much less calories than most snacks.

Mine says that I weigh 210. Sadly, I remember that I weighed much more than that when I got it. Now I can say I am no where close. I weigh more than 50, almost 60 pounds less. Woohoo!

I agree completely with the not being breaking news part. That is why I usually don't talk about it at all to other people. When I am in a group and people go there, I just say I am going to go to *fill in the blank*. I don't make a big deal about it. I felt I needed to say something to her as my son had responded to her…

Good point. I really was not trying to come down on her. I didn't like her tone when she said she took her kids there after I had said we don't go there. Oh well, the nurses rotate there and hopefully I won't get her again for awhile.

I love this question. The following is a quote from my success story blog. "I am stationed in Japan, like I said, and on March 11th we had a very devastating earthquake as most people know. It was terrifying, but the details of that are for another blog. I mention it here because we started collecting donations on our…

Just amazing just amazing!

Dance Central on the Kinect!! So much fun. Really doesn't feel like exercising.

First, Congratulations on you effort to continue to lose weight dispite your personal obstacles. You are clearly a very strong person! Second, I agree with a lot of what you said. There is always an exception to most rules. Some people have legitimate reasons for struggling harder to lose weight than others do. I would…

I truly, honestly believe that I would not have lost the weight if I deprived myself of anything. And by deprived I mean: go without, eat a "substitute", or anything like that. I simply got smart and realized it much more about HOW MUCH I eat, more than what I eat. Having said that I have come to really like a lot of…

Thank you very much!

I understand and point very well taken. That is why I make a point to not talk about weight loss to anyone unless I am asked first. As i said in my blog, I was on the other side as well. I just get really frustrated when I literally get stopped by someone and asked about my weight loss and then they feel they need to tell…

Sure, if ya like :happy:

Congrats on 145lbs! That is amazing! (and I'm sure took a lot of very hard work:happy: ) Wish someone told me there was a wand. It would have made my life easier.

I could not have lost 100 if I didn't pass 4 along the way. 4 might not sound like much, but it is. Like my husband told me many times along the way, losing 1 pound today makes you 1 pound closer to what you want.

Thank you. I am waiting for someone to tell me I am mean or I don't understand. UGGHHH! :explode: I am starting to come down from my frustration though. I think putting it out there helps a little.

I lost 102lbs in 8 months. My story is in my signature. Here I will say, I did not starve myself. It felt like it at first because eating the right portion sizes was not my norm. For the rest click my blog. :)

I wanted to add and I hope you see this since it has been a few days, You story is probably one of the most inspiring I have seen on this site. You have done amazing!!

That is just amazing! :happy:

Dusty Clearview <----Now that is just awesome!!

I think it is awesome that you put this out there. I get asked about loose skin a lot as well. I have been extremely lucky. I do not have any loose skin. I just wanted to add that, so people can see it is possible to lose over 100lbs and not have the extra skin. (But, seriously, who in there right mind would CHOOSE to be…

Thanks a lot guys. Very nice of you to say.:blushing:

I would like to think that I am still young. I have 2 young sons. I am on the other end of the spectrum, meaning I am maintaining now. But, I would be happy to have you as a friend on here. I've lost quite a bit, and I am here to tell you that with the right mentality, it can be done.

Thank you!

Thank you! It was an awesome adventure! I will never forget it. :)

I almost didn't make it. This was the last MWR Fuji tour this year. Soooo glad I did though.

I am So sorry. I deleted my blog. The pictures started shrinking. I promise it will be back.

My husband wanted to buy some light hand weights about a month or 2 ago. I went with him and in the isle with all the hand weights, I asked him to put 2 50lbs weight on the floor for me. (I couldn't lift them off the rack.) He put them on the floor and I swear I could just barely lift them for a second or 2. It was…

You have a daily calorie burn of 1767? That's an awful lot. Do you teach spin classes or something? I am sorry but I struggle to sympathize with the posts that say they can't eat there calories back. For the most part people on here are trying to lose weight. Which inheritely means they struggle with over eating. It's not…

Your skin looks so much smoother. You are doing awesome!
