Good luck! I am here everyday as well. Walk Strong!

Way to go!!! You look fabulous!

I'm 6'1" now....started this journey at a flat 6 foot. Gained an inch when Iost a 100. LOL I started in a 36 womans....now I'm in a 22-24...my goal is a 14 ish. Just keep moving. That is my theory. I'll end up where I end up. As long as I can wear cute clothes and be healthy then I guess I win. :) Walk Strong!

I adore Leslie! I have lost almost 100 pounds with her. I do more exercises now that I am able, but always go back to Leslie!

I live in the mountains so fireworks on the 4th are frowned upon. But I love them on New Years Eve!

Without Leslie there is no way I would be as far as I am today

I started out by logging everything into MFP, but after a few weeks I just used the sync feature and it seems to work better. I am losing more weight and working out harder. But that is just my opinion.

I challenged myself to do 3 sets of 5 squats and standing crunches during worktime. It caught on so all my co workers are doing it. Do what you can do!

Non Scale Victories are the best!!!!

Sammy Hagar....which includes, Montrose, Solo Sammy, Van Halen, Chickenfoot <--awesome band, and The Cabo Wabos. RedHead Forever!

I'm a rocker from way back!

I'm a Viking!

I watched my sister lay in a hospital bed on a ventilator because she couldn't breath because of smoking. I told myself then and there that I would NOT go down that way. I quit. Never looked back. It was tough. But I did it. Used the patch for a while, but not long. After 6 months I was able to buy a new SUV! The money I…

Nope. Been there done that. There are some deal breakers. Violence. Cheating. Drugs. I'm outta there.

I have noticed that for the weeks leading up to my starting, I lose. Then like 2 days before I gain 4 or 5 lbs, but the day after I start I lose it all again. So maybe you shouldn't stress it so much. Ask the leader of the competition to let you weigh in a bit later so it is more accurate.

I have already lost 72, still need to lose another 134. I'm working on it.

What I do is a buy a pair of pants a size smaller than where I am and work my way into them. I did that from a size 36W to a 24W now. I have a pair of 22s in my closet right now waiting for me. While I am concerned about my actual weight, I am more motivated to keep moving when I can have smaller clothes!

I am 6' and way more than 15lbs to lose. I'm working on it tho.

I left my husband because he loved, and I mean LOVED to share his penis with everyone!!!! I'm a nice girl and all, but that does not work for me.

Vasque Breeze for my outside stuff and just boring old Nike for my indoor stuff.

I may be biased here, but Western Montana is the most beautiful place in the world.

I was thinking the same thing. In small doses we can eat whatever we want. It's when it gets out of control that it becomes an issue. Let the kids have a freakin' cookie without guilt!

LOL Glad I'm not the only one. LOL

well here goes........I actually started in a 36W and am now in a 24. So I think that counts. :P

I have to take a potassium supplement as well as what I get in my diet. I actually have an OTC one by Nature Made that works well and keeps me going. Potassium is tricky tho. Too much or too little can also damage your heart. What does the doctor recommend?

I completely agree!!!!

Thank you for your service Daniel. I don't have any brilliant advice. I just eat more fruit and veggies as opposed to the crap I used to eat. I've lost a bunch of weight but have much more to go. Your son is proud of you!

Pretty much! Unless he had Prader Willi Syndrome, he made his choices!
