Hi Queen, my lowest weight was 130lbs & I was 30ish. I never thought I could go lower. How hard was it? I've been struggling to get below the 150 point for years now :frown:

I'm 5'5" & I'd like to be around 145lbs.:wink:

congratulations, you look great!

Feel free to add me! I am back on mfp & trying to make better eating a lifestyle change this time. We can motivate eachother, this goes for anyone else who answered this posting, i'm looking for motivating friends too. Thanks & good luck :-)

Hands down, Trader Joe's Horseradish hummus, love, love, love it!!

Oh, god, can't believe I'm admitting this....... I ate spoonfuls of peanutbutter with sugar, yes, sugar on top, kind of a 50/50 mix, ugh!

I was having this problem also, I went to specialist & she suggested her "favorite" thing was miralax. It is gentle, & non-habit forming, meaning your body will adjust well without it. I started off taking it every evening but that was way too much. I now take it every other day and feel much better. There are generic…

I'm with you! I fell off, work stress/issues, still hanging on to the side of the wagon, not quite on yet..... Good luck!!

I had the same problem, I love, love, love diet soda it's my afternoon "sweet fix". But alas it was causing me digestive distress. I quit cold turkey, I replaced it with turkey hill diet green tea and individual crystal lite drink mixes I added to bottled water. IT WAS NOT EASY!!!! but I did it. I still on occasion will…

Welcome! Feel free to add me, I can use some more motivation :-)

I did the same thing, lost 20lbs last year and gained back atleast 10 over the holidays. I felt like such a failure but the fact that we are trying again is a good thing. The first few weeks back are the hardest and once you get into a groove and it'll get better. Stick with it, remind yourself why you are doing it and how…

I get up at 5am to go to the gym & work out 4-5 mornings a week and it is NOT easy. I've been doing it for about 2 years & now it feels wierd if I don't do it. The first couple weeks are the hardest!! Put the alarm clock across the room and make sure it's an obnoxious alarm, not nice music you would want to lay in bed &…

You can do this! Another suggestion is to have gum on the ready all the time, if your hands are busy with scrapbooking and your mouth is busy chewing gum maybe you won't need the junkfood. Junk food doesn't taste as good with a minty mough...Good luck!!

Your waist is measured at the smallest point between the chest & hips. For future reference your hips are the fullest point below your waist. Good luck!

Welcome! I'm at my desk all day as well, feel free to friend me and good luck!

Hello, my baby is almost 8 & I'm still trying to lose the weight :-(......... I did the same thing you did, I lost about 20 lbs last year and from october thru december I wasn't paying attention, I was indulging waaaay too much and let about half of it creep back up on me. New Years was the new beginning for me again, I'm…

I'd like to get in on this: SW: 161, CW:159, goal by V-day 149! Thanks, Melissa

Good luck! Feel free to friend me :-)
