If this is the results of counting calories and walking to the store each day I can only imagine what you would look like if you had a good excercise regiment. You look fantastic and very impresive results. Keep up the attitude and hard work.

3500 calories to one lb of fat...work the deficit! Good luck, never give up.

If woman can't get motivated by looking at what you have achieved they never will. You look great but then you already know that. I wish my girlfriend would post pictures as she works hard and looks great also. Keep the pictures coming as they are very motivating to see what hard work will get you. Great job!

I quit for 8 years and then started back up again. I quit by using the patch for the first two weeks and then it is just the will power and the desire to want to quit. I have recently quit again, this time with the patch again for about 3 weeks to one month. I am coming up on 6 months and do not feel the urge to go back. I…

I am so sick of people that do not wipe the equipment down when they are done. Some give it a half hearted quickie that they should not even bother with and others just don't give a s.... The workers that should be talking to these people just walk right by them without saying anything and when you say something they look…

You should choose the healthy lifestyle for yourself, for you too feel good about who you are and what you want. You be the one too choose and if you are living the healthy lifestyle then most possibly you will be meeting people who want the same thing. You know, hang out at bars and you will probably meet a drunk, hang…

You can also link the Road Bike with your MFP and it uploads the calorie burn into your MFP. It does lots more, you should check it out :)

If you have an I phone there is a free app called Runtastic, through this app you can pick up another app called road bike. This runs off of GPS and works great for me.

I agree with you, however; for me it is the healthy lifestyle that i'm addicted to not the gym. If I don't go to the gym I feel that I cheated myself.

I monitor daily intake but look at the entire week to see where i'm at towards my goal. I work harder some day's if I know I have a tough day coming up, then I can eat more :)

I work a second shift position that is from 4 pm until 330 am 4 days a week. My day starts on one day and ends on another. I plan my meals around my sleep habits. I usually get up around 1230 pm so that is my breakfast time, lunch is around 7 pm and dinner is 1 am the next morning :) Kinda weird but that is my day. I stick…

My bank account! I quit smoking, a pack a day costing me $6.40 a pack, i have not smoked for 81 days and saved over $500.00. I also stopped at the local Burger King on my way to work every day, I would just get a value burger and small fries, I have not done this for the 81 days also and saved over $200It is not cheap…

Just an amazing journey, you must be so proud. I am so amazed at what can be accomplished when one is truely commited. You are a testimonial that it can be done and for those who have doubts - Look at her now! Wow, truely amazing :)

It is a way of life and all about making better choices. I just ask myself "is it worth it" after I spent 1.5 hrs at the gym this morning ! :) I find that I am asking myself that question less and less. Push hard in the beginning and it will become a way of life later in your journey. Stay motivated and strong :) But…

Great story, sounds like you found a home here :) Take it slow and make it real.

Just amazing! Definitly do not stop lifting heavy. Great job and very motivating.
