  • Love the Cookies and Cream, Coconut Cashew and the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough :) I break it up in pieces and eat through the workday - like little pieces of caramel.
  • Awesome POST!!!! Thanks for a great read - Happy Friday!!!
  • My pet peeves are: Those who come on saying - I'm 5'6 my current weight is 125lbs and I want to be at 105 by "whatever date or event". Ummm - at 5'6 125lbs is a bit thin as it is. AND When I hear people saying fat people are lazy - that irks me to no end!! If you don't know a person's backstory - keep your opinions to…
  • Hi ALL!! I too still have a lot to lose. Started at 348lbs - now at 268 (80lbs down since last jan/feb 2013). My goal would be another 33 to get to 235 - for a total loss of 113 pounds (anything more would be a bonus) :) I have eaten anything I wanted, started off not exercising as I couldn't even walk (was in a wheelchair…
  • Robyn - I was in the same boat - many health issues, couldn't even walk - yet I only ate once a day (dinner) no appetite, etc.. Started off weighing 348lbs when began my journey end of January/beginning of February 2013. I thought Good heavens, if I weigh this only eating once day what will I be like eating at least 3…
  • Mine was that cup of pepperoni, cheese and crackers that is sold at WaWa - - ughhhhh!!! 510 calories, 40 grams of fat, 1490mg of sodium, 13 carbs and 26 protein. While the protein and carbs aren't bad - - HOLY MOLY - the calories, fat and sodium was enough to have me swear off this "treat" for a longggg time!!!
  • I started on my journey end of January, beginning of February 2013 - at 348lbs. A little over a year later I am at 268 - hit my 80lb lost mark on Saturday March 15, 2014 - the day I "walked" my 1st 5k. This time last year I couldn't even walk.
  • Montgomery County here -- born and raised in Conshohocken - now live in Blue Bell (not to be confused with Blue Ball near Lancaster).
  • Carbs 30% Protein 35% Fat 35%
  • Love coconut cashew and cookies and cream - they're all good. I buy the sample box (has 12 different flavors in the box) and a box of cookies and cream each time I order.
  • Yup - the 1st 2 areas I lost weight/sizes in was my shoe and bra areas - the 2 areas I wouldn't mind keeping. Shame we can't pinpoint what goes first - haha
  • Hi Brittany - I have the force and my sister has the flex - the force is like a watch where you can SEE your steps taken, calories burned, activity minutes etc... The flex you have to login and sync to view your steps, etc.. I LOVE my force!! It's very easy to use - just make sure the device you are going to use it with…
  • In the "almost" 2 hours since the post started you could have drove, walked, took a bus, etc... and just gotten the egg you wanted and never even said anything to him (or tell him - whatever), unless you live more than 1 hour each way away from any store that sells these eggs. *not being a smarty pants, just saying :)
  • Hi Jen!! You can do this!! Last February I started at 348lbs - Ugh insane - I know!!! Anyway - it can be done - slow and steady is the way to do this. And you can eat what you want if it fits your macros :) I was so excited to get to the weight you're starting at!!! You don't have far to go to get to 200's - that's a great…
  • Love Quest bars - do you eat right out of wrapper or do you microwave?
  • Feel free to add me - I've lost 75 so far - and my goal is to lose 38 more (I can afford to lose another - 75 - but any more than the 38lbs will be a BONUS!!!) :)
  • Montgomery County here!!!
  • I started at 348 last February and I'm now 276 - - 41 to go to my goal of 235 (then I'll re-evaluate a new goal at that point)
  • Feel free to add me - - I started at 348 last February (I got on the scale then end of January 2013 and when I saw 348 - knew I had to do something). I am now 276. 41lbs to my goal weight (of course I'll take anything over that). Good LUCK!!! You got this!!! :)
  • I buy Welch's frozen fruit (in a bag). The "Antioxidant Blend" is my fave - it has blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, and 2 types of cherries. It's 70 calories a cup and I eat them "frozen" or semi-frozen. I divide the bag into 1 cup containers and put in freezer for quick grab and go snacks :)
  • Great job!!! 42.5lbs is a five year kindergartener!! You lost a child - haha
  • YOU are a TRUE Inspiration!!!! Congratulations on the NEW YOU!!!
  • I've lost 70lbs and I haven't cooked in almost 10 years, we eat out every night. For breakfast I have simple foods such as yogurt, toast with peanut butter, fruit, etc... Lunch - maybe a sandwich with low carb bread, or a bagged salad and for dinner - rotisserie chicken, salad from Wendy's, cheeseburger, slice of pizza,…
  • I started working on my weight loss in February 2013 after getting on scale at hospital while doing bloodwork - and thought for sure someone else just HAD to be on the scale behind me!!! I knew I was FAT but not THAT fat!! My SW was 348 My CW is 278 My GW is 234 (anything more will be a plus) So for 2013 - 70 pounds down -…
  • I am the same way on Facebook - someone actually messaged me that it's all I talk about, they told me to take a rest from it - I deleted them. I post publicly so that I hold myself even MORE accountable because it is public. I am doing whatever it takes to make it work :) Can't wait to see your pics in July!!
  • That's Funnyyyy!!
  • My husband said to the person "I see her everyday she looks the same to me" - uhhhh honey I lost 70 pounds SMACK - haha
  • For me macros are important - I have thyroid issues and pcos so watching my carb intake has helped me extremely. I watch carbs, fiber and protein. Like many say calorie deficit is most important - but if you have certain medical/health issues macros would be important. Some people have to watch sugar, some watch sodium,…
  • Obviously to be healthier (as I was barely able to walk for 2 years) AND to be able to do FUN things with my 12 yr old daughter who has been missing out on all the same fun her older siblings had (Our other kids are 24-38). Definitely can't wait to take her on vacation this summer :)
  • Yes - just as I di on Thanksgiving - I will have a "spoon"ful of everything.
