My most favorite pair of jeans are from Vanity. Unfortunately, the closest store to me is over an hour away! I'll be making the trek out there soon, though, as all of my jeans are falling off of me.

I started off NEEDING to lose 71 pounds, but I want to lose more like 90.

I definitely see a change! Well done!

You look great!

I still get the basketball questions. Ugh. I guess it's not insulting, but I really am sick of people asking me to reach stuff for them at the grocery store. Unless you're a child or a senior citizen, don't ask me! (I'm way too nice to ever do anything besides smile and reach for whatever it is that they can't get to,…

I understand what you mean! My initial goal is 184 (top end of normal) and then I'll reassess and decide where I want to end up. I'm not telling most people my goal, though, because I don't want to see the looks of shock and horror when they hear such a high number!

I feel your pain! Thirty was my magic number. Once I lost 30 pounds, it was like suddenly the whole world figured out my body had changed. Now, I get compliments constantly, but boy, those first 30 pounds were so frustrating!

I'm 6'0" tall, current weight 221 (starting weight 255). I eat 1200-1800 calories a day. I vary my intake because I've been told it keeps your body guessing and is best for weight loss. I don't eat back any exercise calories. My weight loss has varied considerably from week to week and has been anywhere from 1.5 to 6+…

Amazing change! Way to go!!

My brother manages a Champs store and he said Asics are by far better than any other brand you'll find at a basic shoe store. I've heard good things about Brooks from a runner friend of mine.

Amazing job, ladies! Thank you all for posting.

Amazing! Way to go!!

Hi! I'm a 28 year old (sort of...turning 29 tomorrow) wife and mother of two. I started dieting and exercising on December 28. I was diagnosed with prediabetes that day and it was a huge wake-up call for me. Diabetes is rampant in my family and after two pregnancies with gestational diabetes, hearing "prediabetes" scared…

I've been here for just over a month and it's great. Feel free to add me!

North DFW here.

My friend gave me this recipe for a yummy baked pumpkin protein oatmeal: 1/3c dry oats 1/2 scoop protein powder 2 tsp baking powder a pinch of nunaturals stevia extract cinnamon & pumpkin pie spice (I use 1/4-1/2 tsp of each) 1/3c canned pumpkin 2 extra large egg whites 1/4c unsweetened vanilla almond milk Preheat oven to…

I weigh myself every day because it helps me to learn which foods are the most beneficial to my weight loss. I only track it every three days or so, though.

Down 3.2 pounds this week for a total lost of 15. My NSVs: My jeans are too big, I had to add an extra notch to my belt (I've gone down two notches in it), and shirts are fitting much better than they did before.

Me: 6' My mom: 5'8" My dad: 5'10" Sister: 5'6" Brother: 6'2" Brother: 6'4" My siblings and I are stair stepped in the reverse order of our ages. So, the youngest is the tallest, the next is shorter, and so forth. The oldest is the shortest.

I completely understand your frustration. I'm down over 12 pounds now and while *I* can see a very slight difference in the mirror, I know that the rest of the world is clueless about it. My sister is 5'6" and lost 40 pounds, which brought her from a size 14/16 to an 8. The 90 that I set out to lose will only drop me three…

You're doing great!! Twenty five pounds lost is a huge victory!

Those are all great NSVs! Definitely motivational!

Way to go!!

I'm at 243.6 right now. :( Need to get down to 184 to be at the top end of the healthy weight spectrum for my height (6'), but I want to get down to 165 eventually! Feel free to add. :)

243.6 this morning

Amazing!! Way to go!!

You look great!!
