I have the same issue even after losing almost 130 lbs. I do cardio 5 to 6 times a week and some ab exercises. I try not to let it get to me, but since I was heavy for the majority of my life until now, I have to expect to have some skin issues. I chose not to have surgery and will keep up with my work outs with the hopes…

I am amazed at my husbands accompolishment and know that we will continue to inspire each other and maintain our focus. We have had our moments where we let our selves go for a little while but we always seam to get back on track. There are some couples photos in my profile.

Unfortunatly that hell has aready arrived here in Central illinois. It has been raining, cold, windy or to dark to get in an outdoor work out, so it has been moved to the inside world. I really hate not being able to enjoy the fresh air.

I am so proud of you. You have reach an ultimate goal that many cannot reach in a life time of work. I have no idea where we would be without each other support, encouragement and love. We started this journey in Jan 2010 with the hopes to make our lives better and to avoid the health issues that our families had succumb…

I was weighing multiple times a day and recently have been working to change that habit. I now way on Monday mornings and then again mid-week to see where I stand. It is tough to do, but I have been doing fairly well at that. I would like to get away from the scale completely, but I feel like I will fall off the wagon if I…

I can say I am a numbers person and the scale rules my life. I have been in a funk for 6 months. I flucuate 7 to 10 lbs. I am also not seeing a difference in my clothes at this point. I am thinking that my body is saying this is enough and you should stay at this range. It is frustrating to have goals in your mind that you…

bump. I needed this information. I started adding more strength training recently and the scale is not moving. I hope in the next couple of weeks that I see more definition and maybe the scale will move again as well.

That would be a great birthday present. I agree with the others about a nice little something to open on her birthday would be nice also. Or a nice little surprise later in the year that she would not be expecting.

Interesting topic:. I beleive I have been discriminated based on my weight and I know that my Husband has in the past. It is sad to think that companies do this, but there are still some that do. I think it has gotten better over time since the general public now fall into the overweight bucket based on the BMI scale.

I did not feel sexy at 291lbs and now at 157 I still do not really feel sexy. I have to learn to feel comfortable in my skin(literally) before I can feel sexy. I have alot of loose skin and things sag that are not suppose to. Luckily my husband loved me at my heightest weight and now at my lowest. He and I have done this…

Its beautiful. Congrats. You will be a lovely bride.

Im sorry I can not really relate to the "unsupportive" hubby. Mine is my biggest fan and I his. Together we have lost almost 400lbs in 2 years and we are still going strong. MFP is a great support system and you are doing this for yourself. Everyone here is excited for each and everyone of us to reach our goals and…

No I do not look like my sisters. I have blond hair and Blue eyes, they have Red hair and dark Brown eyes. Until recently I was the heavy one of the family, but I now am much smaller than they are. My profile picture is of me(baby) and my sisters and aunt. I have a picture of my family in my profile pictures from my…

Same here as well. I am always cold except at night. I also had to have my wedding ring resized down almost 2 full sizes. I will take the consequences over the unhealthy life I had before.

My husband and I are pretty consistent in our Breakfast and lunch options through the week and then on the weekends we switch things up. We have a handful of dinner menus that we rotate throught the month and then have several different options for treats that we can add in once in a while. This has worked for us and we do…

I agree with this. I have been at the same fluctuating weight since the middle of Aug. Up 3 down 3. Hang in there you will get back your mojo.

Everyone is different, but we all have that image in our head that we want to acheive. I have lost 125lbs and I still have that fat image rumbling around that I can not seam to shake. I have gone from a 26 to 10 in pants, and 3xl to M in shirts. I still go for the clothing that covers rather than showing the curves. I hope…

I know when we had shin splints in high school, we taped our shins, but the compression socks or sleeves would do the same thing and would be much less painful on the skin and pocketbook over a long period of time.
