You look incredible! Congratulations on your transformation!

Going to try this. Thanks!

sounds great!

Thanks. I going to try this.

In for some new appetizer ideas. :)

Wow, you look great! Congratulations on your success! :smile:

I love breakfast casseroles. May try this over the weekend!

One of my favorites is a turkey burger. Costco's frozen turkey burger has 200 calories with 35 grams of protein. Serve on a bun with lettuce, tomato, and a little mayo and it totals about 400 calories. That leaves plenty of calories for a salad or side of vegetables.

My weight has finally dropped below 200 for the first time in years! 6 months ago I wouldn't have thought that was possible to achieve.

I have them on my belly and chest from pregnancy and fast weight gain. They've faded over time and are now barely noticeable.

Yesterday I wore a size 16 dress slacks to work. I haven't fit into that size in about 8 years. :smile:

That's a huge accomplishment, congratulations!

There's an obvious difference- your face and neck look much thinner in the first picture. You look great! Maybe your friend is so use to seeing you that she hasn't noticed the gradual change?

This is kind of what I do... my breakfast generally stays the same, than I figure out what's for dinner and the remainder of the days calories go to lunch.

I eat about 1200 calories a day and try to reserve 600 - 650 cals for dinner and a small evening snack. I helps to plan meals early in the day or the night before.

You look fantastic! Congratulations!

You look fabulous! Congrats!

I have no idea how you're going to decide with so many different opinions! With that said I like #5 the best. The fabric and neckline draw my eye upward to your face. Good luck! BTW, Your arms look fine. Wear them bare if you want to!

It doesn't matter what the scale looks like as long as it works! And yeah, good food is expensive, but being healthy is cheaper in the long run. My husband is on MFP too and I can't wait til he can ditch his blood pressure and high cholesterol meds. BTW, after getting a digital scale I realized I was underestimating…

A big change! You are very pretty!

You can add me. I joined 55 days ago, log daily and I don't plan to stop anytime soon since I still have 60+ lbs to lose. I walk or ride a stationary bike 5-7 days a week and have begun lifting weights, (but not heavy... YET.)

bump for the recipes!

You look fantastic! Congrats on your success!

I have a diastasis 4 fingers wide and it makes a pretty big bump above my navel. For years I wondered why my belly wouldn't shrink. Why it looked so strange when I sat up and why it hurt if bumped. Besides being expensive I've read that the surgery is very painful. I'm doing the exercises and hoping to avoid going that…

Have you actually tested yourself for Diastasis Recti? There are certain abdominal exercises that can be done to improve the condition. Some regular ab exercises like crunches can actually make the separation worse and increase the size of your belly. Video showing how to test for a Recti seperation:…

I'd love another friend! Sending FR :happy:
