My arms, legs and calves just out of the blue. I don't want to bum you but taking me a long time but I started at 321 and currently I'm at 189.
  • THANKS for posting!!! I've been losing slowly :( but as you say, "I'm shrinking and people see and compliment" Thanks for reminding me because sometimes that scale is discouraging........
  • I'm sorry for your loss. 19 years ago Thursday my baby's daddy was killed, I was 7.5 months pregnant with my son and he was in the middle of getting a divorse. My sister went with me but of course his dad and soon to be ex planned and were in charge of everything, even though my sister went I don't believe she knew or…

I've lost 126 but have been stuck so long i forgot how long I've come. Hope you…
  • Awesome, one of my favorite was my day 21 of 30 day shred. I was walking to my car and saw something below me, IT WAS MY FEET. I haven't been pregnant in 16 years and had not seen the motion of my feet since before that. Congratulations and keep up the hard work. It does't just happen we have to work for it.
  • That is great. We are harder on ourselves than we should be. my daughter's comment about 6 months ago was, "Mom I can tell youre losing weight" I asked really how? She replied, " All the lose skin on your buttocks" She truly wasn't insulting and I was truly happy ever though I have to work on that :)
