you look great!

I wouldn't say starting over, but getting back on track after a couple week slump of being too busy with life to care about myself. Now it will take a few days to rebreak bad habits and get back to taking care of me!

Well done and very inspirational!

awesome story and inspiration! I started a few pounds heavier, but my goal is also 150. I hope I look as good as you do when I get there. And I will get there, thanks to the help of folks like you for posting these inspirational stories!!

great story, and congrats on your success!

I'm going to eat within moderation and eat what I want. I'm going to enjoy the day and then get back on track on Friday.

Totally inspiring. Congratulations on your success!

Hi! I have about 95 more to lose and would love to be part of the group. Username is robinb07.

these sound amazing, thanks!

Thanks for all of the responses! I guess it makes sense that the body needs more fuel to fight a cold. I just usually think about not being hungry while being sick. I hope everybody is feeling better soon!

We have one, but I don't really think it saves us any money. It was more about having less bottles and cans around the house. Plus, in Massachusetts where we lived when we got it, there was a bottle/can deposit that you had to pay on each can (so an extra .60 for every 12 pack of soda.) Having the Soda Stream was a way to…

Wow! Great work ladies. I was overweight before my kids but still gained like 40 lbs with each and then kept 20 of it with each kid. I was 280 when I delivered my last one (which was a 10 pounder) and dropped down to 240 pretty quick after that. Then like an idiot let it creep up to almost 260 again by the time she was 8…

Thanks all. I ended up going with an Eat Smart scale. Thanks to the glory of Amazon Prime, it should be at my door the day after tomorrow!

I did the 30DS a few years ago and lost roughly 10 lbs and 20 inches. It was pretty awesome. I actually had to stop b/c it was right before my wedding and I didn't want to have to get the dress taken in.

:laugh:

Um, go through and read what people have already suggested. Furthermore, go into your profile and just set MFP up correctly- it will tell you exactly what you need to do.

Very inspiring... I am starting close to where you did and have goals similar to yours so your story is great! I'm fairly new so going to stick with the MFP guidelines for a few more weeks to see how I progress but will keep your strategy in mind for if/when I need to make adjustments. Thank you for sharing!

Amazing difference! I think its a great idea to to progress pics in the same outfit. I just might steal that idea ;)

Hi all! I am also in a similar boat- looking for friends to do major weight loss with. I have been doing this for two weeks now and down about 5.5 lbs so I am a believer! I am looking to lose roughly 105 more lbs (started at 259 and would like to get down to 150. Feel free to add me as well!

This. But go ahead and add Broccoli to the list too.

I hear you on losing the baby weight! I have two little ones (youngest is nearly 8 months now) and had put on an extra 20 lbs with each kid, plus I was already overweight to begin with. Looking to lose about 100 lbs. This seems like a great community so far. Also, I have done tons of diets in the past but this (calorie…

Hi Laura- I'm relatively new too and also looking to lose 100 lbs. I will add you. I do want to say that I am terribly sorry about your losses. I cannot imagine what you have been through. And, your husbands family sound like a bunch of tools. Looking forward to getting to know you! Robin

I just signed up too. Here is a code- 4 uses left! ROBINB97P

I'm really sorry that this happened to you. I remember as a young girl (I have always been overweight) I was walking home from school and a car full of what I assume were high school boys pulled up and made similar comments to me. I was crushed and I will probably always remember that feeling. In this case, I would…

Get out of my head! Seriously though, I love all of that stuff too. Booze, junkfood, pizza, chocolate cake etc. Not the dog piss though, I hate that **** haha. Totally adding you!

Yes please!

I'm new- actually just started this week (Monday) so I'll just post my starting weight today. SW: 255.8

I'm in too! And then maybe we should extend it to lose another 10 by Christmas? Might help motivate us to not go bananas over the holidays!

Pretty sure I could have written the exact same post... and I want to lose 110 lbs! I am a mom to two little ones and also work more than a full time schedule. Would love to be MFP buddies/cheerleader/occasional butt kicker!
