30 lbs before it was obvious. Now at 50, people freak out when they see me.

I wouldn't ever think those 2 people are the same person. Great job!

11. Sleep is just as important as eating right & exercise. It's the secret third leg of a three-legged stool no one ever mentions.

1. What I ate caused me to gain all that weight, it wasn't lack of exercise. 2. Understanding the connection between sugar & cancer, stroke, Alzheimer's, etc. It's not just bad luck, it can also come from bad choices. 3. How important protein is. 4. That eating (good) fat doesn't make you fat, it gives you energy & brain…

I've been at this almost 19 months & haven't learned patience yet either. I've found it's like a pot of water... As soon as you look away, it boils. Find distractions. Obsess about something else for a few weeks, then go back to the scale to check your progress. Good luck!

Love this!!!
-
Awesome idea!
-
Sparlingo: You are my new inspiration. I can't believe all of your stretch marks completely disappeared like that. You give me new hope!

USMCMP: What!? Those abs are ah-mazing!
-
Awesome! I recently just hit that milestone, too. It's an amazing feeling.
-
Not silly! I've gone down a shoe size and my wedding rings are almost falling off. It feels good!

32 pounds in a little over 6 months. I lost 20 pounds in the first 2 months, and 12 pounds over the past 4 months. It took me 13 years to gain 32 pounds, and 6 months to burn it off. I now weigh less than my wedding day. Whoop, whoop!

These are the songs that always make me go faster... It's an odd collection, I know! Bright Lights, Bigger City - Cee Lo Green Feel Good Time - Pink Happy - Pharrel Williams Loverboy - Billy Ocean Lucky Strike - Maroon 5 U Can't Touch This - MC Hammer Now That We Found Love - Heavy D & The Boyz The Walker - Fitz & The…

Not only did you nail it, you knocked it out of the park. Congrats!

The big secret to weight loss is... 1. Eat with purpose 2. Move everyday 3. Sleep 8+ hours daily It only works when you do all 3 and consistently. Bonus tips: I also stay below my sodium RDA% and log my calories BEFORE I eat them. Good luck!

I can't believe you made all that progress in just 8 months.... that's amazing. Way to go!
-
You are adorable. Congrats on your success! Love the new glasses, too.
-
Wow! I can't wait until I drop 15 more pounds so I can look as good as you!
-
You. Are. Awesome.
-
You look great!
-
I've seen your progress photo in the scrubs before, so am so super happy to see your update. Fabulous job! Can't wait to see you again in a few more months.
-
I think you also went in a time machine, because you look 20 years younger. Congrats!

Two old women cornered me at my cousin's wedding to ask me if I was the bridesmaid that was pregnant. I was only 19 at the time. I was absolutely mortified. I think I just burst out laughing instead and didn't even respond to them. Luckily they had a mortified look on their faces, too, when they realized their gaffe. I…

Fabulous! Love the rockin' new glasses, too.

I love that you shared the specifics of your journey. It was really helpful to understand all the smaller steps you took in the beginning. Congratulations on your tremendous success and for sharing it. So proud of you!

Thank you for sharing your story! You look amazing! Can I ask what was your lightbulb moment?
-
I love being one of THOSE people, you know, the ones that actually eat healthy, workout, and make smart choices about their bodies. Never thought I could be one of them.

Fresh baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, eggs, greek yogurt, bananas, apples, blackberries, green grapes, strawberries, roasted chicken breasts, romaine lettuce mix, almost every kind of vegetable, and water. I recently made the switch from salsa to cherry tomatoes. 4 tomatoes have the same number of calories as 2T of salsa,…

My favorite part of your story: "Make a 2013 Thanksgiving Resolution." I love your attitude and your list of tips! I plan to log everything before I eat it. That way I can eat stress-free and focus on enjoying what I have on my plate.

I just finished Day 3 of Level 1. I started 5 days ago, with 2 days of rest between Day 1 & 2. I wasn't planning to weigh myself this morning, but am glad that I did! I've lost 2.5 pounds this week. I eat all or almost all of my recommended calories, closely watch my sodium, and do at least 30 minutes of cardio every day.…
