Oooooo, depends on how much you are drinking. It erodes the enamel on your teeth.

I lovvvve rollerblading, but have issues stopping when doing any speed, lol. I find that I don't get a great cardio workout from it, but I build great muscle in my legs - calves especially. I imagine that you'd burn alot of calories, Angela. I find that I am good and sweaty at 45-60min on fairly flat and paved ground- but…

I love this..." started with 5 minutes a day on the treadmill. Now I'm riding 100-200 miles a week on my bike." How wonderful!! Being an all or nothing type person, I generally would want to start at 100 miles/wk and then crash and burn. Its a messy process. To start out with 5min every day is doable and inspiring. Thank…

HI Harry; I know what you mean by extremes, lol. I get upset when my body fails to cooperate, esp through injury, but I've learned over time though that injury sets me back BIG TIME... and that is infinitely more frustrating. Having patience and self love is something that is taking me time to learn and apply. Probably…

Awww.... you are adorable at any size, and what a journey you've had. Such an inspiration!! You look trim, fit, beautiful!! :happy:

Wonderful results!! With that 7% change you look fantastic, congratulations. :happy:

I love seeing stories and photo's like this! Congratulations for all of the hard work. Tell us how you did it, and what you had to go through.

You are talented beyond words!!! Not only with food, you see the beauty in so many things... so impressive!!! I am from way up north in Canada. I thought that Texas did not get snow - is this a rarity?

Awwww... aren't you sweet. Same beautiful smile but you've made some AWESOME changes, congratulations! Tell us how you did it. :flowerforyou:

WOW! Incredible work, congratulations. I bet that feels good in so many ways- - very very inspiring!!!

Thank you for sharing this! In those pictures I see the person inside - the excitement, the anticipation, the conflict and emotion. I see a beautiful person there, and I feel love.

I met him at the Dental office. Loved his easy personality, his wit, and his teeth, lol.

I binge every Friday - a treat day for me that sometimes runs into Saturday. I don't mind so much because the rest of the week is pretty tight and full of nutrient. AND.... it feels good to be badddd sometimes. I think that the scale will still be kind to you if you talk to it nicely. :smile:

You look great! Inspiring the rest of us. Congratulations on your successes!!

Buy yourself a new pair of jeans! Your wife will appreciate seeing that nice butt, clothed beautifully, and you'll feel even greater when looking in the mirror. Nice work!!!

When life gets in the way and stresses pile up, I substitute gym stuff with walking the dog and airing out my brain. Keep logging your foods and writing your exercise as this is where you get your support and celebrations. I live to hear.... "Good Job." Maybe that will help you too. Thinking of you!

HI Jan! I am excited about your enthusiasm. :-) and will catch up with you here. Keeping fb separate because sometimes family do not like to see me succeed. I like to be with "all of you" who are on the same journey. This forum is wonderful and invigorating. Here I am safe and feel alive and well supported. Keep your…

Hahahahhaah, wonderful! :-D I mix in cottage cheese and celery cut up tiny.

Charlotte, you have many an incredible transformation - congrats!!!

Baby steps...one foot in front of the other. You can do it!! :-D

Hi Lianna, welcome! I like the idea of having one Sin day/wk. I have trouble with conforming to any regime but am inspired by the things that other people try. Having a few friends means seeing a few different regimes and allows more choices. Best of luck with your journey. What is the first thing you want to try.... your…

Friends are everything! I think that it helps to be accountable to people who are in this with you. We all have issues I'm sure and it is a great thing to connect and together we move forward. You can do it!!!

Hi All: Was weight training for a year successfully, then work got in the way and all came to a crashing halt. I WILL go back to the gym if you do. :-D My eating habits.... only so-so. I recently bought a whole foods blender and am beginning to juice whole veggies. Looking to loose weight through meat, veggies, (some…
