@Naturallyoliv - your profile pic. Very cute and mysterious :)

Selma, haha you are right! I'm actually currently crushing on a guy that wants to be a doctor! :P

Selma - I'm feeling a bad boy vibe

@ nbhobbes A rock goddess? :)

WOW! I have to say, you look amazing, and the timing is perfect! I'm a bridesmaid in May 2013 and came back to MFP to find some inspiration, thinking that my goal of 50lbs in seven months was not possible. Thank you for proving me wrong! When I saw "7 months" in your title I knew I had to look! My spirits are way up now…

Amazing! You are such an inspiration! :)

I'm so glad I found this post! I am a bridesmaid in May and need to lose a TON of weight. I'm 250 atm and the other two maids are super tiny, so I'm dreading dress shopping. It kind of crushed me today, even though I know she didn't mean to sound rude, when my bff said that she may put me in a different dress because she…

I'm a bridesmaid in May, and would idealy have 50lbs dropped by then. Not sure that's realistic, but any loss would be great, as the other two maids are super skinny!

Woohoo great job!! You definitely deserve to be proud of this! :flowerforyou: Just a couple suggestions that I read (and have tried that worked for me): 1. When craving count down from your current weight to your ultimate goal weight! 2. When craving count to or down from 100, taking a sip of water between each number.…

McMinnville, Oregon here :)

I have two! To fit in my prom dress. I won't even be at my UGW yet, so actually eventually to have it just fall right off of me! And to be able to run the Portland Marathon with my friends this Fall!

I'm from the Pacific NW, too. We are allowed to wear socks with sandals here?? No one sent me the memo...Although I only really wear flip flops for sandals, so I suppose that wouldn't work.

Yes it is. At our Safeway it is kept in the little refrigerated area that has the special cheeses and stuff in it.

Hummus is a type of dip. It is delicious on veggies or crackers! It comes in different flavors. It kind of reminds me of bean dip, but it's healthier. :)

There is no such thing as too old!! I'm 22 and my 42 year old sister has more style than I do! And I'm always working on my 62 year old mom's style haha :wink:

I LOVE Zumba for the Wii! I have the first one and hope to eventually get the second one. It's so great when I don't feel like leaving the house to work out, plus it gives a great burn and is tons of fun! :)

Hey! I'm 22 and needing to lose about 120 pounds. Add me if you would like :)

Bumping so that I can post pics later!! You are all so motivating! :D

I'm in college, too!! I don't live in a dorm or anything, I live at home with my mom. But still, I'm in college! :) Add me if you would like!! :D

No pills for me (unless you are counting healthy, natural vitamins and the like). I need to lose 100+ pounds and I am making a lifestyle change, not going with a fad that I will just gain back later. :)

Oct 6: 248.4 Oct 11: 250.4 :grumble: Okay, so my first week is not off to a so great start....but I have lost .6lbs since yesterday, so hopefully I can continue in that direction!

Feel free to add me if you like! :)

Welcome and good luck on your journey! :)

Feel free to add me as a friend! :flowerforyou:

SW Oct 6: 248.4 If I can lose 5lbs this month, I'll reach my lowest weight since starting this journey! :)

I'm in!! I will be weighing in tomorrow, so I will post that as my SW. Just the motivation I need! And as it has been said, especially with Halloween right around the corner, and a little kid Halloween Party to go to!

On Monday I did W1D1, and it was WAY harder than I thought it would be! At this point it's so easy to believe that I won't ever get there, but then I see stories like these and realize that I can do it! Thank you so much for sharing :)

Thank you both for your replies! My friend got back to me and I found out the name is Never Say Diet. :)

Welcome!! Feel free to add me if you like! :smile:
