WTG! I've pretty much given up Pepsi. Will have one occasionally but not 2-3 a day like I used to. I've cut out white carbs and switched to whole wheat. I've cut out a lot of processed foods and have started cooking from scratch more. I've cut out snacks like hoho's and cookies. I snack on fruit and healthier stuff now.…

We all have to start somewhere! It won't ever change if you don't do something about it. So just start now on making a healthier you and you will get there!

http://www.fitsugar.com/How-Eat-Dark-Chocolate-Daily-Health-Benefits-23418659 Here's an article for ya. Hershey's Special Dark only has about 45% cocoa so while it is better than milk chocolate a higher percentage is still preferred by most.

You da man! Looking great good job :)

I don't have many because I'm the same and am usually the picture taker because I hate pics of myself but here is one that got tagged on FB from a get together back in April. Yes I untagged myself in the pic.... It's a tad blurry but you can see how big I am. Working on changing that though! You are looking great! Keep up…

Do you have a weight or anything at home you can weigh to see if your scale is accurate? I think mine is pretty accurate when i went to the doctors their scale was 4# heavier. When I weigh at home it's first thing in the morning, in the buff after going to the bathroom. At the doctors it was late in the afternoon wearing…

Mine's open to friends and yes I do cook pretty much every dinner at least. I try to make healthier versions of things I have made in the past. I just learned the recipe feature so I have just started creating my own recipes so now instead of seeing just all the ingredients listed and guessing to what I have made you can…

They shoud have nutrition info on their website. Google it and see what you like and what the numbers are. I have started trying to google all the restaurants I go to before I go to them so I don't make too bad of choices.

6/28 Friday checkin: Starting weight: 280 Goal weight: 275 I weigh on Fridays: 05/31 - 280 06/04 - 277 06/14 - 275 06/21 - 273.8 06/28 - 271.0 9 pounds my first month! Makes me hopefull that I can really do this.

You can add me if you'd like. I have at least 130# to lose. It's going to be a long journey but I know we can do it!

My problems are opposite. I'm on the pill yet I have been spotting for the past 3 weeks. I think it's finally starting to get back to normal (of course right b4 I get my period). I'm not an expert at anything but I'm willing to say especially being so young and only eating 1000 calories was not helping and probably…

Sorry to hear you are getting no support at home. I'm glad you joined here, there are many supportive people here and I wish you all the best in your weight lose!

I've never done WW but my sis told me she did and lost 30# on it. But then gained it back after quitting. Kinda seems like a re-occuring problem here to me. I've just started MFP and am losing weight slowly but steadily.

I use splenda and sugar free creamers. The one i have is 20 cal and 2 carbs per Tbs. I only drink 1 cup a day ... I'm sure if you have 5 it probably adds up. Don't know what your limits are.

Hi Chloe! I have 120# to lose feel free to add me :) Soda has been rough for me too ... Love my Pepsi *sigh*

I've just started my journey and can never have enough friends! I'll add ya if you don't mind.

Fantastic! You look great. And I so love how your stomach flab seems to be shrinking in. I really hope mine does that lol WTG!

I preapre scrambled eggs the night before. Mix two eggs with a bit of milk and add whatever veggies and cheese i want. I put it in a tupperware container and then microwave it when I get to work. I usually need to do it for 3 min stiring every 1 min. I eat that along with a banana at 7:30ish (though I eat the banana…

I'm sure that's from the people who are scared to eat any carbs. I have been eating a banana and a apple or peach or other type of fruit every day for the past month and I've lost almost 10#. I did cut white flour noodles / rice /bread and potatoes from my diet and switched to whole wheat.

I'm still getting Coldstone for my b-day, dammit! But not a PB shake.. ewwww...

Wrap like this: http://pinterest.com/pin/327073991658229937/ Not too much longer but a bit. The challenge is getting the bf and 16 year to re-wrap it when they take a banana. lol

In my early 20's I tried the Atkin's diet. Yes, I lost some weight. Yes, I gained it all back plus some especially having another kid and all. This time I'm going for a lifestyle change. I did cut out most white flour products and starches and you know what? I'm really not missing potatoes. Will I have some pizza…

I'm going through the same thing! My BF is wanting to lose weight as well but he is not being near as strict in his diet as I am. Also he has bad knees so he doesn't really exercise much at all (unless i make him take a mile walk with me when it's not too hot outside). And he is losing weight just as fast as I am. So…

Haha I have to agree. I love my bananas. I eat one every weekday morning with 2 scrambled eggs for breakfast and it keeps me full until just before lunch. I try to always buy a pretty ripe bunch and a pretty green bunch. I'm not the only one in my house that eats them. By the time the first set are gone the 2nd set are…

That is so great! WTG!!

<~~~~ gamer though play free Kabam games right now it's Wartunes

Hello, I don't have any success stories to share because I've only been doing this site for about a month but if you'd like support and to learn together please feel free to add me. We have about the same amount of weight to lose.

Fairly new on this site and I would like to try it!

If I had your bod I'd wear a bikni to work! ;)

I'm not skinny *yet* but have just started eating healthy the past month. I had a very similar diet as you. I have basically cut out all white flour and potatoes and most processed foods. I'm learning to cook from scratch. My old breakfast: bagel with cream cheese vs my new breakfast: two scrambled eggs with veggies and…
