  • I started at 175 in mid October and now I am 168 but i plan to switch to maintenance at 145. I hope that at that weight I'll look lean and well-sculpted. At the end of it all I plan to treat myself to a breast augmentation.... summer body here I come!
  • MB, you are my new favorite person! God bless you, girl. Thank you for your story. You are WINNING this thing called life and conquering your battles while showing the world your beautiful and courageous spirit.
  • Goodmorning! I tend to do most of my grocery shopping in the produce section. Try to shop weekly for fresh fruits and veggies so that you have good snacks on hand at all times - spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, berries, baby carrots, grapes, oranges, bananas, pineapples, apples, etc. Its good to be able to quickly…
  • MMMMMM pizza! So hard to resist! You did great by not eating with the kiddos. I have a thing for Indian and Mediterranean cuisine and this week I happened to stock up on naan bread. I usually make paninis with them but twice this week I ended up making homemade pizzas that were soooo yummy: naan bread drizzile of olive oil…
  • I'm with you, hun! I feel like its time to put a little effort into having the body that I've always dreamed of, instead of just settling for what I've got. I sounds super vain, and it is, but I really want to look as hot as possible. I've seen some amazing transformations on here and every person should be incredibly…
  • Greetings, tall, beautiful ladies :) It's sorta hard to judge what the ideal weight will be for our tall bodies. I agree with what some have said - having a tall frame means we can get away with a little more. We do carry our weight elegantly. I'm 6'2" and currently 170 pounds. Right now I am aiming for 145-150 pounds. I'm…
  • Good morning and welcome! I started on MFP a week ago and I would love to be part of your support system as you work toward your 20 pound weight loss. I'm also the type who people look at and say "you? lose weight? naaahhhh." I just want to take care of my expanding waistline before it gets out of control. I also work 6-7…
  • Rice is my biggest weakness! Ever since I was little my family has called me "rice queen." I would always complain when my mom cooked a dinner without rice. She would say "But we have potatoes" or "we have pasta" and I would always say "so what! I want rice too." I'll be giving up rice at least while I start my diet and…
  • I like the Dr. Oz energy smoothie - gives you tons of energy for the day. I don't have the calorie count 1 handful baby spinach 1/2 cup watermelon chunks 1/2 cup pineapple chunks 1/2 cup frozen blueberries 1/2 sliced granny smith apple (green apples have less sugar than others) 1 can coconut water (not milk. Get the kind…
  • Thanks! You're right, the tracking is probably the missing element and seeing it in black and white should be my wake up call. I'm sure all it takes is just tweaking the plan a little bit - not resorting to a drastic juice fast. Jonnythan, thanks a million - lesson learned. I'll track the calories to be sure I'm really…
  • I'm in the same boat - working out hard and eating clean but I'm 4 weeks into this new diet/exercise plan and I haven't lost any weight. I drink water like a fish but I suppose drinking more wouldn't hurt. I opened myfitnesspal account today so that I can keep track better and so that I can gain support. My exercise…
