Love your last line... "If I can do it, anyone can! It is definitely a more difficult battle with your brain than it is with your body."

I am 5'2" and am at 207 :sad: currently so if I can manage to get downto 150 I'd be on cloud 9! Ultimate goal weight for me would be 135-140.

THANK you all so much!!! I got a lot of great suggestions. Some of the stuff some of you mention I haven't even heard of but I will look into it. because it made my mouth water. I am not a huge fan of the taste/smell that lingers behind after one uses a microwave....it either tastes too rubbery if food is warmed in a…

Hey it all depends on the age and genetics of the person. You seem like a really young girl so just give your body some time to shrink back as much as it possibly can. Make healthy food choices and get your sweat on a regular basis and see what happens. I have a friend that lost over 100 lbs and her skin was "squishy" for…

You look amazing! Extremly well done. If you have done this well I can only imagine how much more you will acomplish in the next 90 days! Keep up the great work. A motivation for sure! :happy: May I ask what pant size you started off with?

Thanks for the replies ladies!

Hoping for some replies. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I agree! I thought the show was so much better this season until the finale. Last night I wondered if the producers were going to try to do some sort of damage control since in a way it makes it seem like the show has pushed them to this extreme. The underweight clause would be a good idea.

We watch as a family and my girls were in shock! They even said "WOW!!! She looks so old and fragile." I think that Jillian and Bob thought she took it to the extreme. I rooted for Rachel all along but she looked ill and anorexic like and that made me sad for her. I wonder if The Biggest Loser now thinks they've gone too…

Thank you very much for your suggestions. I will try these and hope that something works before I replace any of the components.

Thank you very much Elenor. I will look into buying a new strap if all else fails. Are the straps sold on the Polar website?

I've never heard of the Garmin F60 women's watch HRM...I will look into it since I may need to replace mine soon. Thank you.

Thank you all for your replies. I do know that the best way to do it is the good old way as I had at one point lost 60lbs because I was tracking, eating healthier and working out practically on a daily basis. Life got in the way, I got lazy and got off track. I did gain some weight back...not all of it but I am now trying…

Amen to that!!! It's already tough making it work when 2 parents are around now imagine one being far away and in possible harms way?! :sad: My respect goes out to all of them...wife, husband and children.

THIRST can sometimes be confused by for HUNGER. I say try drinking some water and if the hunger persists then have some of the following; Low Sodium Peanut Butter - Very filling Low Fat yogurt Mozarella Cheestick Almonds Fruit Best of luck!

I have terrible knees and the elliptical was the only way I could get cardio in for a while. It never bothered my knees...BUT my feet would hurt a lot. Like they would get hot, stiff and they felt like they were falling asleep. :ohwell:

I'm in Garland so not too far from you. I had lost 60 lbs but I got lazy around November and I didn't do anything about it. Ate bad and working out came to a screeching halt. Just today I restarted my ticker to read 0 lbs lost and hopefully that along with my MFP's will help me get back on track.

Guapisima!!!! Keep up the good work.

Thank you all! :)

Thank you! I have been checking on Craigslist on a daily basis. :)

don't worry about couting calories. you are ill and you need your rest. i'd say stick to bland foods. crackers, bananas maybe some rice and once you get to feeling a little better maybe some chicken noodle soup? take care.

Depends on each child. My oldest is 13 and I still don't let her stay home alone because she is careless and is so focused on being online with her friends that things go unnoticed. Once when I was making soup and in the meantime I gave her little brother a quick bath while I was dressing him I asked her to go turn off the…

Yep! Love everything about her....but you know? I've never though of her voice as being velvety...it's more like a hoarsey sexy voice. no? LOL!

My goodness you look gorgeous!!! You will definatley make it to that 100 lb mark! Keep up the great work! :)

Thanks but I find myself at the gym looking at everyone's calves and most of the time mine seem to be the biggest. :( Maybe in heels they'd look ok. hmmmmm.....

Thanks dbiddle. :)

Thanks zenpuppy!!!! :happy:

I am so very proud of you and congrats on being a survivor! Woop woop!!! I loooooove your topic title and post you are SO motivated! You've got the motivation so as long as the doctors say it's ok to push along I say give it a go and keep it steady and logging lovely girl. :) (((HUGS))) from across the pond...

@justgowithit1 - her eyes...they look so flirty!:wink:

AMAZING! You are stunning! I am very proud that you have been able to lose all that weight. THANK YOU for sharing your story. YOU have totally inspired me. I keep thinking I can't get down to 140 but seeing how you accomplished so much it gives me hope. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Again, THANK YOU!!!…
