Thanks everyone!! I couldn't have done it without the support and encouragement of you all! And I can't continue without ya!

Oh and I forgot to add that this is 3 size smaller than I was when I started!
-
Definitely first thing in the morning before you eat or drink anything but AFTER you've gone to the bathroom and gotten rid of anything left in your stomach =)

Beautiful before but hott hott hott now! WTG! Very inspiring!
-
So awesome! Thank you for sharing your pics and your story! So inspiring!

Unfortunately for me, all too often in the past a “cheat day” has lead me to fall off the weight loss wagon. So, for me there are no cheat days as I am afraid I would never start back up and I want this time to be different. My intentions are to allow myself a “treat meal” as soon as I hit Mini Goal #3, which is a BIG one…

Oh I am soooooo happy for you!! I have 12.6 lbs to go and you just inspired me even more! Thanks for posting this. Getting into ONEderland is a HUGE goal! WTG!

When you eat so few calories and your body begins to take its nutrients from muscle to be able to function normally, one of the muscles it takes it from is the heart and other vital organs. And while you may see immediate results from your calorie restriction, if you ever begin eating normally, the weight is going to pile…

I like that you just came out and said what everyone appeared to already be thinking. I have had the same thought and ALWAYS look at someone's diary before commenting on whether it was good or not. If someone is several hundred calories under thier goal, I just don't say anything but that's prob not the right thing to do…

Yes that is exactly what they recommend and it is just the opposite of what we, as people trying to lose weight, would probably think. I had a very hard time doing this but after 5 weeks of only losing 1 pound per week, I gave in and decided to eat HALF of my exercise cals back and it worked! I reported a BIG loss the…

Are you talking about the goals posted when they reply to mesasges? This is part of your "signature" and that's where you would add that.
-
Wow!! Big difference! You're even more gorgeous than you already were! Congrats and I know what you mean about not allowing yourself to be photographed!! I am so with you there!!!
-
Yes yes yes! I've soooooo been wanting one AND the Reese's eggs too! For this reason, I bought Easter baskets that were pre asembled and wrapped up so I can't get into it! LOL I am going to at least have 1!!!!!
-
I so know what you mean! Everytime i complain about all my clothes being too big the reply I usually get is "That's a good thing".....yea well it's not unless you have money to spend to replace what's not fitting anymore. It's tough, but like you said, it's worth the feeling of the clothes being too big and I am hoping to…

Wow! You look fabulous! WHat an inspiration!

I was struggling with this too so I started adding almonds and sometimes cranberries or black beans to my salad. It's really good and helps increase calories. I also added soe yogurt in the afternoon and it helps curve my sweet tooth. Yoplait Fat Free Red Velvet Cake yogurt is SOOOOOO yummy! Sometimes I eat my exercise…

Today is Day 7 of the Shred for me and I am much stronger than I was on Day 1. It's still really hard for me though. At the end of that 27 minutes I am drenched in sweat and have jello legs and arms! The soreness for me went away by Day 4. Jillian is a BEAST and I am scared to move on to Level 2 with what everyone is…

When I do it, I log it as low impact aerobics since there's way more to it than just walking.
-
I totally never thought I would be able to give up candy (of all kinds) but I have......I haven't had any candy in going on 12 weeks and for me that is unheard of!! Candy is the one thing that will send me off on a binge faster than anything so instead of risking the binge, I have decided to completely stay away from it…
-
The things I've read say that for a 150 lb woman it burns about 503 per hour (or about 168 for 20 mins), but that doesn't help those of us that weigh more than 150 lbs. I logged it as high impact aerobics, but now that someone has mentioned it, Calisthenics is probably a more accurate description than high impact aerobics.…

And I clearly can't type. SHRED! Not Schred! Sorry!
-
I guess the first question I have is why do you throw up during the day? Is this an every day occurrence?
-
I am using the Food Pyramid to fulfil my daily calories set here on MFP. Eating the food pyramid helps you ensure that you are getting all the foods needed to provide you with the right amount of vitamins and nutrients and will keep you full longer. It really seems to be working for me so far as I have lost 28 lbs in 10…
-
Yes I have those too unforunately and those nights they get chicken strips, fruit and a veggie =)
-
Thnks everyone! I sooo love MFP for all the support and encouragement. It sure does make this journey so much easier......
-
That was a very inspiring reply - thank you Emily!!!
-
Awesome! I get to put something else down as burning calories. I have an hour practice every Saturday and I sing in the choir at church and am singing special music tomorrow! Thanks for the info!
-
I know I need to open up my diary for all to see, but I am kind of embarassed even though I stay under or at my calories and I am not necessariy eating unhealthy.....I am just self conscious I guess. I am a big girl and I have been for a long time and it has really taken a toll on my self esteem. I am working my way up to…
-
I usually eat a couple peices of whole wheat melba toast, grape tomatoes, part skim mozarella stick, and apples....but today I had a fat free pudding. I haven't had any candy in 10 weeks now....BIG deal for me....and fried food make me very sick. So I would say what I am snacking on is "somewhat healthy" but I could…
-
Ironically this very thing happened to me and a friend of mine when we weighed yesterday......She gained and I had only a really small loss. This makes total sense and makes me feel a lot better about the evil scale....thank you for posting this!!
