I just keep telling myself "I only need to lose one pound, eighty five more times." Works for me!

Feel free to add me. I am always around and chatty when it comes to pushing you. Good luck. And def check out those spinning classes. It tok me a full month before I could do the whole class as directed, (hills, jumps, torques, intervals, etc) but I can now and am absoultuley addicted to it. Plus it burns like 600 calories…

I weighed in this morning at 220. Big surprise. I have been at 220 for like 3 months. Talk about a platue. This is getting rediculous! But I am still very determined.

I know how you feel. I swear I am not that big until I catch an unflattering glance in a mirror. I feel like I am skinny until I go shopping have to go in only the "fat girl" stores. I get really pissed off at my fiance when he comments on cute clothes in the wondows because I know they dont fit. But yesterday I went to…

Great job - riding a bike isnt easy and going up hill really can suck. But you did it! You should be so proud. On another note, I just got a bike today. I havent even rode it yet. You can add me as a friend and we can root each other on mile by mile. Good luck!!! You can do this!

I weighed in today at 220 pounds. My goal for the day (and week) is to not eat anything after dinner. Mindless snacking infront of the tv is my biggest weakness. And my goal for next week is to start going to the gym before work. God knows how I am going to wake up early enough but I am going to try! Good luck to you all!…

My birthday is December 10th. I will be 31 years old. And my goal is to loose 10 pounds by then. Overall I have another 85 to loose. Looks like you have been doing really well. Feel free to add me. I log in everyday so I am very good for support. Good luck to you!! :)

My pic says I look better when I am photoshoped. LOL Truth hurts.

Met a guy off the internet at a local outdoor shopping/eating area. We sat outdoors and drank wine. We never even got to ordereing dinner. The waitress kept coming over and we were so inthralled in our conversation we never looked at the menu. She was annoyed but four hours later we were still chatting up a storm. Best…

Met my parents at McDonalds for breakfast this morning. I wanted the pancakes and sausage. But I ordere the oatmeal and a yogurt. Yea me!!! Here is to making good decisions all day. :)

I am always so motivated as I watch the show. Then when they weigh in I get really depressed. It took me 6 months to loose 15 pounds and they are loosing 20+ in one week. It just isnt fair.

Oh my god - someone actually understands! I go through the exact same type of binging. I just cant stop. First it is something salty, then I want sweet, then I want candy, then I want salt again - it goes on until my stomach hurts. (last night for example it happened.) The only way I could get myself to stop eating was to…

I just tried one of those new Fiber One 90 calorie Brownies --- so gross. doesnt even taste like chocolate - not worth 90 calories

Congratulations on your weight loss - and keep the puppy - he will be a great motivator to get you out and walking. How could you say no to that precious face??

I used to drink 7-12 diet cokes a day. No ****. My friends would make fun of how fast I would down them and the poor waitresses that couldnt keep up on my refills. I always figured no harm because there really isnt anything in it and no calories. I have since cut it back down to one a day. Now it is like a special treat. I…

Good job! You should be very proud - Jillian is not an easy workout. I freakin hate her jumping jacks, lol. Keep it up - sounds like you are on the right track

So gross. I saw that on a TLC tv show recently called "My Weird Addiction" i think. This lady was chewing up food and spitting it out into a glass at the dinner table with her young children watching - and to make matters worse they picked up on the habit. Poor kids. Not worth it. dont do it. Youa re doing fine. You will…

This (weight loss) is not a competition. Very hard for a naturally competitive person to learn. My fiance has lost so much weight and is as skinny as a rail now - and looking very sexy might I add. While I am still as heafty as ever. It is hard not to be jealous. Really hard. I have to keep reminding myself this is not a…

My hunny just grew a beard and I think he looks super sexy!!! Id keep it!

Im sorry you got treated so badly. That is not what we are paying for. But I got the same advice from a doctor last week. She said that loosing one pound a month was normal and no way was I exercising as much as I said. Then she suggested lap band surgury. When I asked about diet aid pills she blew me off completely. She…

Great job - your health is so important. I am working on getting mine down as well. Keep it up - sounds like you are on the right track. :)

Def set little goals and reward yourself. You have been working hard and deserve something nice. No one else is going to reward you - this has to be for yourself. I set little goal gifts. So if I loose 10 pounds I can spend $100. If I loose 20 pounds I can spend $200, ect. -10 new shoes for the gym -20 teeth whitening -30…

WOW great job. Im not even sure I could resist that big of a temptation. Keep up the good work - you are heading in the right direction. Keep it up!!!!! :)

I drink ISOPURE found at any vitamin shop. It is as thin as water and taste great. It is made from 100% whey protein with zero carbs and is fast absorbing. It has 50 grams of protein a bottle so I only drink half after a workout. But it is delicious. Now, I thought it would be cheaper to buy the powder and make my own…

Im not going to tell you when or how to exercise - I dont know what is best. I do know it really helps me though. I have suffered depression for twelve years and just recently discovered I am bipolar. What I can tell you is not to give up hope. I was miserable and hopeless and unable to get out bed or hold a job for years.…

I am so inspired - thank you for sharing. You look incredible and must be so proud of yourself. Keep it up! :)

I totally know what you girls are talking about (if I am being honest). I trap my fiance all the time because of my HUGE insecurities. I cant fit in his jacket and I tell him to go find a skinny girlfriend. Deep down I know I am driving him away. He knows what I look like and fell in love with me anyways. Im just not happy…

THANKS guys - very helpful information. I will keep drinking it but cut back to 25 grams. Good luck to you too!

HA HA HA. I totally know how you feel. We have hershey kisses in the office and Ill sneak one and then later enter it on MFP for 50 calories - so not worth it. RESIT. lol :)

I love it - you look cute with short hair. I am doing the opposite. My hair is short and I thought since this weight loss journey will take a year or more Id try to grow mine out and see a major difference in my appearance. But props to you for such a selfless act. :)
