Thank you all so much for the great advice!

Throughout my journey I would eat around 1100 cals regularly. When I started zig-zagging I would do 1400 or 1500 and it helped a little bit. Then one day I went out with some friends and had a crazy day that was close to 2000. I found that I lost 2 MORE lbs b/c my metabolism had to rev itself up higher to process those…

I got my weight loss tattoo three weeks ago when I hit the 100lb loss marker! :happy: It's a bracelet on my left wrist. I would post a picture but I don't know how to do that on here.

That is PHENOMINAL!!!!!!! Great job doing it all on your own w/o surgery!!! I know you are so proud and feel great. Keep fighting the good fight :drinker:

Resale shops and also the Goodwill Stores, or the 'GW Boutique' as a friend of mine calls them ;-) If you have time to go through the racks you can find a lot of good items. Having lost 90+ lbs, I had to have all new winter clothes. I have even found lots of sweaters still with the store tags on them!

I agree, chat rooms would be a nice addition to this site.

I was stuck in a plateau for three weeks and tried everyting to break it. It was only when I started Zig-Zag did it finally break. I've been doing Zig-Zag now for about 6 weeks and the pounds are still coming off. Good luck to you!!!

I've been trying out some low fat side-dishes that I can take for upcoming holidays and potluck parties. I really love this one: Zucchini Casserole 2 medium zucchini, sliced in half and then sliced. (I used one zucchini and one yellow squash b/c I love the combination of those two) 1/2 cup chopped onion 2 tbsp butter 1/2…

How do we find out what our week two challenges are?

No need to feel embarrassed, we all had to start somewhere. What got me started was working out. When I began to see how hard it was to burn those calories, it made it easier for me to cut back on eating so much. And I started to talking back to my body. When I would want to eat more, I would say, "This is what the serving…

Congratulations to you!!! I know how you feel. I've shopped in plus-sized stores for the last 15 years. There's a store here called Cato's and they have plus sizes on one side of the store and regular sizes on the other. The plus-sized side only goes down to 16W and the last time I was there I had to move over to the…

Hey Krystal, I sympathize with you. I can hear your frustration in your post. I agree with what another lady said, if I have a gain and it's still there by the next weigh-in, then I log it. Try not to worry about those "period pounds". Most everyone gains between 3-5lbs during their time of the month. If you are taking in…

Girlfriend, you bring your healthy stuff and don't feel guilty about it!!! This summer is the first time I've ever been concerned with what I eat and counting calories, and you better believe EVERY barbeque and potluck I've been invited to I brought something healthy that I could eat. And even if I was the only one eating…
