Look into local charities as well. There are some animal organizations that can help with grants/subsidies for vet bills. I've known several people who have gotten assistance for major surgeries for their pets that way. P.S. You're not a horrible pet owner. I have several pets whom I love like kids, but that is a really…

I was down to 230ish when I met my beloved. He has a super high metabolism and is a professional chef which meant loads of delicious food and portions that were well beyond what I should have been eating. 2.5 years and 40ish lbs later here we are lol. The good news is he's 100% on board with me since I wasn't the only one…

-660

This made me giggle uncontrollably. It might be a sign I need more caffeine.

I'm in!! I have a ton to lose, but 20lbs would be extremely helpful when it comes to fitting into my costume :laugh: I'm 28 and 5'9" SW 260 CW 250ish [I don't weigh in until the end of the month] Halloween 230 UGW 150-ish I do body pump 2x a week and water aerobics 3x a week. Considering adding in 30DS to help shed some…

I'm in! I'm not doing a '90 day program' per se, but a combo of body pump 2-3x a week and some form of aerobics 2-3x per week.

I'm 28 and a full time law student. Feel free to add me!

I pre-pack my lunches and snacks for the week on Sunday afternoons. I have protein shakes for breakfast so I prep those the night before. I am not a morning person and barely coherent before I leave the house so pre-planning is a must! :laugh:

That sounds amazing! Thanks for the recipe :smile:

I am so jealous. I've met Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. They both seem like nice, down to earth people.

You clearly haven't gone to law school. :laugh: Law school [imo] is the epitome of misery, whether or not you love the law. ETA: Shooting...preferably my rifle but in a pinch an indoor range with my pistol works too.

Well, as a divorcee I'm a bit jaded on the subject. But if you're going to get married... Have sex. Lots of it. Even if you aren't exactly in the mood, go for it. Don't sleep in separate beds in the same house. No matter how angry you are with each other, as long as you're trying to work it out sleep next to each other,…

If Netflix can bring back Arrested Development surely they could bring back Firefly...maybe...pretty please?! I LOVE Firefly and go through the series about once a year.

For the salt I go with a 100cal bag of popcorn sprinkled with some seasoning salt. For sweet I have discovered and LOVE Canfield's diet fudge soda. I'm not sure where you stand on the diet soda fence, but this stuff satisfies my chocolate craving better than any other "diet food" I've found. If you're a protein shake…

I personally don't even step on a scale that week. It's just going to upset me anyway so I stay away :laugh:

I'm on day 3 of C25K. I hate running, but am doing a 5k/obstacle course in October with some friends. Add me if you'd like :happy:

Same here. I want [bigger] boobs!

I eat what I want as long as it's within my calories. One meal a week I don't log and have whatever I want be it fried, sugary, or washed down with several glasses of wine. It's good for the soul. And my trainer says it's ok. :laugh:

Welcome and good luck! Feel free to add me.

Blueberries. My grandfather grows them and brought me a bag about a month ago. I had forgotten how delicious and satisfying a small handful can be as a snack, or sprinkled on just about anything.

Starting: 260 Current: 254.3 Goal: 160 and toned I am 5'9"

I'm in!

Adding...love the reference! I love South Park :happy:

I'm in!! I was planning to start today or tomorrow :D

This! lol Your entire post made me literally laugh at my desk. As for advice though, it does get easier. My entire office brings in greasy Mexican for lunch and there's always extra chips/salsa/queso free for the taking in the kitchen. It gets easier to say no as you see the changes in your body/health and compare that to…

Me too! I need motivation to make it through the next few months and stay on track.

^^THIS^^ I miss Firefly!!!!

This is what I do with Ghirardelli 60% cocoa chocolate chips. When I buy the bag I go ahead and separate them into smaller portions so I'm not tempted to eat them all in one sitting :) I too am a chocoholic and this has helped me cut back a lot.

AMEN!!!!
