Great job! What a difference 50 lbs can make!

and the key is the white bread otherwise they're never the same. :)

wow!! awesome! Congratulations on hitting your goal! Great work!

It's my last day of work before vacation!!! That makes me very HAPPY!

I haven't had protein powder in ages, but I used to love the chocolate by Champion Nutrition.

Awesome!!! You're not only 60 lbs lighter, but you also look about 20 years younger! Great job! You are a true inspiration! :happy:

I also love Leslie Sansone. She has a walking/kickboxing one too!

Yep, do it all the time. The thing is not to beat yourself about it. It happened, its over, next time you'll choose something better (although that's not true for me...I still usually go with the bad stuff!!! lol). You're doing great so no beating yourself up okay? :)

I like Stonewall Kitchen Maine Maple Glaze. . It's 25 calories for 1 tbls. You don't need a lot of it either! It's on the sweet side due to the maple, but it's nice for a different flavor. Sometimes, I cook the pork and put the tbls. on the side of it.

Yep, I do. It's not pretty to look at sometimes, but at least I can make them up with exercise or cut back on other days. Sometimes its not possible to do in a week though! I'm not in a hurry to lose all this weight, and I'm not going to get obsessive about it like I did in the past. It's a life change, and most days, I'm…

LOL!! :laugh:

I wrote this without reading you were going out!!! Sorry! But here's some for when you're at home! here's a good site that has sugar-free and low carb alcohol drinks: http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/alcoholicbeveragerecipes/r/Sugar-Free-Pina-Colada.htm The brand Master of Mixes is now doing light versions so they have…

I totally agree....let them wonder! Everyone always thinks they know what should work for everyone else. What works for one person, doesn't necessarily work for the other! Just because we're trying to be healthier and get weight off or maintain, doesn't mean we can't have anything we want within reason! :)

Love it!!! Those NSV are sometimes better than anything! Love the story! :)

I read every word and will be visiting your blog!! Thank you for sharing! :)

Hello there! I posted in this group for the first time yesterday under the introduction thread. I had my RNY 8-1/2 yrs ago. I never really "dumped' but if I had sugar in small amounts it would make me very tired. I still have that issue with ice cream. Knocks me out like a bottle of wine! My story was kind of long so if…

Hello! I had Gastric Bypass Jan. 11, 2005. For the first 1-1/2 yrs I was doing terrific! I started off weighing 300 lbs exactly. I lost 126 pounds and hit 174 for about two seconds. I'm not kidding....I usually stayed around 177-180. I'm not making excuses, but in 2007 my Mom got ill and passed away. We were very, very…

Yes, please! I'll have some ribs and red velvet cheesecake!! :) You are truly and inspiration!! Now let's talk about the corn bread and fried pickles!

Wow!! Great work! You were beatiful before losing and even more so now! congratulations!

Eat protein snacks....they keep you full longer. 50 calories - light string cheese (have it with some fruit if it's not enough 100 calorie pack of Emeral Natural Almonds (I buy the packs only because it limits me on how many I can eat!) 4 oz of boneless skinless chicken breast is about 110 calories Dannon Light & Fit Greek…

Great work!!! You must feel so much better! Thank you for sharing your pics with us! :happy:

gross....there is nothing worse than finding something in your food that should NOT be there. :sick:

Good for you!! You're doing great!!! :) I have to set small goals for myself otherwise, it becomes too much. I do 10 lb. increments.

Wow! Congratulations! You both look amazing! :)

I have two close guy friends. One I went to high school with and the other I met at work. My husband has met both and hung out with all of us together. It's only ever been friends and it's all it ever will be. We just dig each others company. My friend from work has since left the company and moved out of state. Texting…

Great post! Thanks for sharing! You look terrific and much younger!
