Y'all made a little better =p They only know because there was pizza in the break room and I explained why I wasn't eating any.. It just makes me uncomfortable.. I do feel good about what I'm doing! I may only be eating 1100 calories a day.. but its the healthiest I've ever eaten!

I'm gonna get new clothes too =) But mostly because I'll have to.. I'm excited about a belly ring though =)

I LOVE Yoplait Light! =) Greek yogurt looks gross to me and I don't want to try it! =( I don't like plain.. my favorite is strawberry =) Activia is pretty good for you too

I think going over on prtoein is okay.. I've looked at a few diaries of people that are within a few lbs of their goals and they go over a lot.. I think the main thing is to watch calories. =)

The first time I tried, I did lose =) didn't learn to keep it off.

The first time I ever tried to lose weight, I did it on an elliptical! I love those things SO MUCH =) I like it because I don't really like running all that much. I have a treadmill now and so far so good. I guess it is all about what you perfer. =)

I said no to the Papa Johns in our break room at work yesterday =) and the brownies.. and muffins. Tomorrow is potluck though.... =( Wish me luck! Think I might be leaving a little bit early.

Don't do the surgery <3 You will be so much more proud of yourself if you don't.. its so much better for your body too! Keep working on it. If you can do it without surgery, than do it! =)

You did it because you're human! Just cut back your calories a little each day for the rest of the week, push yourself to work out harder too.

You need to exercise the muscles behind them as you lose weight. Try taking light weights, lay on your back and lift them up. That works that muscle, push ups too.

Looking VERY good! =)

Agreed. Please don't be embarrassed!! =( No one here is judging any one!

This sounds SO Yummy!!! O.O I need to try it =)

Save some calories to help with the night time cravings.. Have some veggies... Also, find another way to produce dopamine. =) That is why you want snacks late at night, eating releases dopamine. Kind of like an addiction.. find something to occupy yourself.

Less than 3.. =(

Usually my boyfriend and I have $40 a week to spend on food... a lot of the times its less.. So we get markdown produce (where he works =p) and I get tons of Lean Gourmet meals ($1) and frozen veggies and yogurt. We have lots of rice and stuff like that.. I'm eating a lot less meat so that cut our bill.. It isn't…

I'm hoping to borrow P90X from someone.. I really want to try it! You look very good! =)

Test your scale.. here is what I did.. I got on it and wrote down what I weighed.. without changing anything I picked up a 15 lb weight my boyfriend uses.. I wrote down that weight.. My weight with the scale was 15.3 lbs different. =) Pretty accurate I would say! Usually dr's scales are accurate but your weight does…

I have had this problem!! I was telling my boyfriend how grouchy I was feeling and how bad I wanted a SNACK! He said.. well yeah! You're addicted to food! Eating can give you the same feelings as having sex. Dopamine! That is why we crave it, we want to release dopamine.. I don't know about your personal life.. but if…

Looks like strength training would be good for you =)

Portioning has done so much for me! I go by serving size so much now. No fast food for me!! =) AT ALL =D Thanks for posting.

Any one can add me too! =) I'm not the greatest with words.. but I try to motivate the best I can. Everyone of us can do this ;D No matter how big the weight loss goal!! <3

No one is gonna lose their appetite! We are all pretty much in the same boat here! Whenever your ready, no one will judge you! Remember.. we are all at home in front of a computer screen:wink:

Try to hydrate more. =) When you Realllly sweat you might need to try gatorade..

I'm terrified that I might have this problem.. I've always been the fat kid too =( Is there a way for you to talk to a therapist? Keep your head up! =) Do you have before and after pic's? After being heavy your whole life it is going to be hard to accept the new you.. just go look in the mirror at yourself! =)

Ohh!! Looking gooood =) Keep it Up!!!

Agreed! This is the one's that stole my answer! =p

It isn't a diet, it is a Lifestyle Change =) I saw someone else stole my answer =p Another big one is to think of Food as FUEL =) For your body! Not exactly something for you to enjoy.. That does not mean 'Food is fuel, something you Can't enjoy though!)

Me =) I'm 20.. I have one supporter here.. that I can actually hug and talk to.. My boyfriend =) I've got my Mom but my brother has cancer.. so he is her main focus.. I'm dealing with people at work.. half of them are on Weight Watchers, telling me how to eat.. and some are like 'oh, a diet'... 'OH, counting calories'!…
