There will always be haters and snarky people who are jealous. You're worth more than that and I'm glad you have a positive attitude! Way to go!!

Thanks guys...you're the best! *hugs* :flowerforyou:

OMG...I did it again...I'm sorry - I'm having too much fun laughing at this... try Myheritage.com face recognition...I just put this pic in (my profile pic on here)...and it told me Liv Tyler (really?) Tiffany Thiessen (nope) Natalie Imbruglia (ha) Portia Derossi (too funny) Jessica Simpson (now I think the computer is on…

HA HA! I just looked up a website for your celeb look alike and put in my pic...it came back with Diane Kruger (American Treasure, Troy) Grace Kelly(Princess of Monaco and actress), Tiffany Theissen (90210), Marg Helgenberger (I think CSI) and Barbara Stanwyck (classic actress). I think it's funny cause none of these gals…

I had one person who kept saying Kate Winslet in Titanic (my hair was red then)...not feeling it...My daughters say I look like Angela Lansbury (in her younger days) and my hubby says Joan Crawford...I don't see any of them really.

No HRM used here. Can't justify the expense...:wink:

I just took the recommended weight for my height and age and added 10 pounds to it. Although now I'm not so sure I have to do that last 10 pounds...I didn't know about all this high tech real info to figure stuff out when I started this, lol! :wink:

Really, I eat the single serve boxes of just about anything, lol! I'm not any help.... :laugh:

My body got funky so many times during this. It will straighten out eventually. Just don't get discouraged and hang in there :flowerforyou:

LOL! I am one that said that - but I do the workout cause I got the DVD of 30DS for 3 dollars...I couldn't pass it up!! :laugh:

Thank you everyone for the info - great advice!

She irritates the crap outta me...not to mention the fact that I find her a little too manly, lol! Oh well...all this and I still do her workouts - I just have to turn the sound down because she preaches a bit too much! LOL!

I don't know if there is an ideal number. I do have 5 kids. If we could afford more and my poor body could take it I would have more though...I miss when they grow out of the baby stage and there is no one cuddling up to you anymore : ( There is nothing quite like the unspoiled true love of a child to make you feel loved…

Yup - gotta keep the boobage in place and the pants where they need to be. Plus if I do a t-shirt I find myself having to stop and re-arrange stuff cause it shifts on me. Love my WalMart workout gear! :wink:

I started out a size 22/24. I wanted to fit in a size 14. I am currently in a size 8/10 and think I may be moving to a 6/8 soon...wohoooo! :noway:

In my opinion (an I say OPINION) anything that I have used made me jittery and kinda gave me a "caffeine high" type of feeling. I didn't actually see any different results when I was taking the supplements, weight loss wise, so I stopped taking them. That was just my experience though...:wink:

Awesome! Way to go! Doesn't it make you feel great?? :flowerforyou:

You guys are awesome! Thanks you so much for all the great advice! I am stressing out but I know I shouldn't. I am just going to do my best - it's better than where I was a year ago for sure! Plus this is for charity... even if I finish last I will know I tried my best and did something worthwhile. :flowerforyou:

I personally feel naked without my makeup on. I was raised by a mother who stressed that women aren't to leave the house without make up on and hair done - no matter what. (yes, I know - she is a nut) I just feel ugly without it - that it hides me from everyone. Does that make sense? I am enjoying reading the comments. If…

Went from a 42DD to a 36D...and I am LOVING IT! LOL! :bigsmile:

In southern PA here and it's been raining lots and getting windy. We live in the woods near the Susquehanna River so we always lose power when it's windy. There's always a tree that goes... so we've lined up flashlights and candles and filled lots of containers of water and are waiting for the storm to hit. They say it…

I must say that I always try to leave positive comments - only because I am saying you're doing an awesome job by being here and taking responsibilty for yourself by logging everything - the good, the bad and the ugly. I have explained that to my friends as well...so even if they have a crappy day I will atleast put "Great…

I'm no food expert but I often buy expired yogurt from a dicount store around here. I eat it and have never had a problem. After all, I don't think the yogurt can read the date on the lid :laugh: Sorry, just had to be silly....

My hubby falls into this category. Since my weight loss he says I am too skinny and he will not look at me or touch me. I told him that's too bad cause I am not going back to the way I was.:brokenheart:

Me too..but I have really think hair so it hasn't been noticeable to anyone else. I don't know the answer but have heard of others with this issue too.

I just hid or took the pics...can't hardly find any of me through the years :blushing:

You look great!! Awesome job! :flowerforyou:

Thanks for sharing - great new breakfast ideas!:flowerforyou:

Thanks you guys! I thought if anyone could appreciate it - it would be my MFP friends! And it was great to be insulted that way for once, LOL!

I had 2. Someone I haven't seen for awhile cornered me and told me they can't believe how good I look and what am I doing? Then I went shopping and bought size 10 jeans...I have NEVER fit in a size 10...the lowest I ever was as a teen was a 14...when I started MFP I was in a 22!
