Wow! You look great. Kudos on a job well done! :)

My mini goal right now is 139. I got a little sidetracked last year and gained some weight back, currently at 147. My reward will be to get my belly button re-pierced. I had a tummy tuck in January 23 and have a new one now. LOL I'm exercising daily and eating low carb.

Cheers from another drink lover. I have had good success in cutting down on consumption by switching to seltzers. I don't feel like I'm "missing out" but keeping the carbs, cals, and overall intake lower. Michelob Ultra Organic Seltzer is 0 carbs, 80 cals, 0 sugar. I drank them all weekend and when I tested on a strip this…

This is so me! I can't tell you how many times while cooking dinner I go to take a sip of wine... and there isn't any! LOL Today's go-to snack was turkey deli meat rolled up with a pickle spear and a little cream cheese.

Rib Eye steaks with sauteed mushrooms and blue cheese crumbles, brussel sprouts w/ bacon, minced garlic & fresh grated Parmesan. Tonight we feast... low carb style! ;)

I'm following a low carb diet right now. I've had great success in the past. For me, this means lean meats, eggs, fiber rich veggies, healthy oils, high fiber veggies, a little cheese & the like. I am trying to keep around 25 carbs per day, not counting calories. Get creative with your foods & mix it up so you don't get…

I'm just about 156cm, started Jan 1 at 154 and my goal is also about 135!

You look wonderful & have obviously worked hard. Awesome job!

I'm on day three also. I just made my husband a cocktail and it was so hard resisting a gulp of it. I'm usually a wine every night kinda gal. But just like you, I've done it in the past, and I know I can do it again. We've got this!

Lost and maintained 12 pounds loss last year, hoping to do about the same this round. 17 would put me at goal weight!

Pork chops seared in cast iron & finished in the oven with a little bit of brown gravy & mushrooms, Greek Village Salad.

That's exactly my goal! Count me in!

I'm the same height as you and started around 170. I have been maintaining around 153-154 for a year now (Yay me!), I'm getting back on that wagon and hope to be posting some success pictures of myself some day soon!!! You look amazing!

You look wonderful and I'm SOOOO envious of your legs! LOL I'm 42... really need to get my butt in gear!

Cut out the majority of white carbs (with an indulgence here and there), upped my veggie intake. Down 16 pounds since August. :smiley:

I have been stuck in the 160's for over a year! On a whim today I stepped on and was blown away at 157.4. Eeek!!! On to the 140's. Seeing that number certainly has lit a fire under me!

Nice work! I turned 42 this year & I hope to be getting myself back in shape, too!

I have this going in the crockpot right now. I'm going to make the rice in my rice cooker so the boys can have it with their dinners, but I can leave it out. Easy Crockpot Jambalaya 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs 1 pound smoked sausage, cut into 2-inch slices 1 large onion, chopped 1 large green bell pepper,…

Hahaha! I read the same thing!!! LOL

ItWorks! Cleanse

Looking good!!!

Way to go!!! you look fantastic!

This morning was a tropical strawberry Shakeology smoothie w/ a handful of almonds. Tomorrow is looking like fresh juice w/ all the leftover chopped veggies from dinner & a couple scrambled eggs. :)

Wow, you've already got some great ideas! I see all the ingredients for a lovely pico-de-gallo. Potatoes, squashes, zucchini, etc. freeze well. Chop and freeze for later use in your soups, casseroles, omelets, etc.

This sound awesome, going to have to give it a try!

Awesome work!!! You are looking fantastic, keep it up!

Beautiful! I love seeing maintenance success stories, thank you!

Vanity... we're moving to the warmer side of the state this spring. I want to look great in my bathing suit! LOL All jokes aside, 40 is fast approaching, it's time to get my health in check.
