I got married June 26th and my goal was to get into my dress. And I did it! I was so proud and my day was perfect. I liked watching Bulging Brides and The Last 10 Pounds Boot Camp on Splice TV. Not sure if you would get that where you live as it is a Canadian Show. The wedding dress is a big motivator. The tough part now…

I swear by lemons and water. squeeze 4 lemons into a 1 1/2 litre bottle of water and drink it in the am before eating anything. Stick close to the bathroom though. This has helped me lose 144 pounds. I only do it Saturday and Sunday though. Better on days off from work.

I've been there too. 1 1/2 years ago I weighed 143 pounds more than I do today. It seemed like such an impossible thing to do to lose it. But it can be done. Have faith in yourself. I do, and I don't even know you. :flowerforyou:

I am close to my goal now too. And I have started jogging. The scale didn't move for a long time and I was so frustrated and said everyday, "what is the use". But a little voice in my head said "keep going, you know its muscle". So I persevered and now the scale is moving again and I can see the difference in my clothes…

I too am having troubles. When I run or speed walk I get a cramp in my right side kind of towards the middle. I believe that I am not breathing deep enough and that I let it out too soon. I am hoping it comes with time. I don' t have this issue on any of the other machines I use but I notice that my breathing is much more…
