Hugs to you friend. Remember you are wonderfully and fearfully made. I had forgotten that I am wonderfully made and should have been taking care of the body God gave me and deceived myself into thinking I was just fine until I hit 233 lbs a little over a year ago. Now, I am 62 lbs down and have repeated to myself over the…

I intend on treating the holidays like I have every other day of the past almost 300 days I have been logging. Eat within my calories. If I go over, I go over but I will not stress about it. I will not give any more power to turkey and dressing and all the yummy sides that go with the holidays than I do with the everyday…

Hey Ya'll! 5'7.5" SW: 233lbs CW: 185lbs GW: 145lbs (may change up or down will decide when I get closer) Alabama (Southern drawl and all!) :smiley:

When I started I wore size 18 jeans at 233lbs. I am 5'7.5" tall. Now, I am 186lbs and in a size 12 jeans. And went from 2X tops to now XL. It seemed like it took forever to go down a size, but once it started it happens pretty quickly, I have already gotten several size 10 at the thrift store to be ready.

Hello! I was diagnosed in January of this year with hypothyroidism about the same time I started my weight loss journey. I have lost 40lbs since then. (Started at 233lbs and now 193lbs) and I am 45 years old. With my medication my once irregular periods have now become very regular and I have more energy which I am not…

Great job!!

@DanceDiva234 Thank you! Whew! So glad that is true, I was beginning to get a little frustrated! :)

@HealthierRayne Thank you so much! @hoorayselma Thank you and yes, this is just what I needed to go for my next goal! @indigoblue9572 Thank you! It is very exciting to reach my first goal and I look forward to smashing the next goal!

I was a single mother when my children were little. It is hard to get everything done and sometimes you feel overwhelmed! Let me just say, you are doing a GREAT job! Hang in there, they are only little for a little while. :) I fed my little one's cowboy beans until now neither of them will touch baked beans at all.…

I decided when I started this journey that if at all possible I would skip a size before buying anything. 30lbs ago I started in a pants size 18 and top size 2xl. So, I belted the 18's until I got into a 14 and I have bought a few XL tops at the thrift stores. So, the next pant size I buy will be 10's and you will all hear…

*Hand raised in the air* Desk sitter office worker over here too. I have lost 31lbs since January 3rd of this year. I am 5'6" and started at 233lbs. I try to get up and walk as much as possible when I can. We also have stairs in our building so I try to do those some during the day also. I exercise around 45 minutes for 3…

Hey Y'ALL! Fort Payne, Alabama. Home of the country music group "Alabama".

Thank you everyone! No more cheating for me! Both hands above the desk as I pedal away. lol! I will not count this as exercise or steps just as a warm up until I can do some actual exercise.

@lizery ...Well, only one hand is under the desk (the one with the fitbit). LOL! I didn't get this little exerciser expecting to burn massive amounts of calories or to think I would do much other than get a little blood pumping throughout my day. I just noticed my steps going up and got a little excited more about reaching…

Thank you @xsmilexforxmex. I felt as though it was cheating but wasn't sure because I was "moving". Oh well, I will keep at it just to be able to do a little extra movement through the work day.
