Good job! i have similar goals (5'7") Also started in January 2014, I started at 261 pounds and now at 214 pounds. I am going slow and steady. it is refreshing to see someone with the same goals as myself! Good luck!

I just took 15 minutes out of my day to read ALL comments on this post and all i have to say is. My butt is big, but(ha) not round, squats will make it bigger....and rounder... I like butts... That is all...

oh lord. I remember this girl who was trying to become my trainer at my current gym told me i'm not allowed to eat bananas because they have too much sugar and I shouldn't count calories. I need to just eat lots of "good carbs." In her exact words: "Ya I don't believe in counting calories..... You should try and eat only…

OMG I LOVE THIS THREAD. Where have you people been all my life?

meh wherever you want! LOL (above the shoulders)

I joined on January 10, 2014. After seeing my pictures from my birthday party (Jan 6) I thought enough was enough and set a goal to lose 60 pounds by January 10, 2015. I lost the weight mostly though diet as I am a single mom and just couldn't find the time for exercise. I joined a gym in September and am focused on eating…

Im 5' 7" and started at 260 pounds. I am now 215 pounds. Stil a long way to go but let me tell you I am not one of the amazing stories on here where it took a year to lose 100 pounds. It has taken me almost a year to lose 45. Why? Because I constantly lose motivation and suck at staying within a deficit over the weekends.…

Thats awesome! I have been nervous for week 5 (currently on week 3) and hope I have the same outcome as you!

so silly! It's not like there are even any naked women.

my salads would have romaine lettuce, spinach, chicken breast that was cooked in cattleboys sauce, and some lightly stir fried mushrooms, peppers, and onions.....mmmmmm

I love how anyone against Kim K is getting flagged... Wonder who did that...

I dont have progress pics just yet... but in the last month I have lost only 3 pounds but have lost 5 inches overall. (3 in my hips and 2 in my arms)

LOL Oh how I look forward to your weekly updates

Think how I felt after I finished my wine! :'(

spaghetti squash works just as fine as well and costs about $3-4 and half the cals of that stuff

Step 1: Get super toned and hot Step 2: Repeat step 1 Step 3: Continue on with your life He'll get over it. Just make sure he always feels like the man ;) Most/some men need to feel strong for their own egos. Some women are the same way too. Just always ask him to scoop your ice cream because you don't think you could take…

I had a very difficult time losing weight while breastfeeding. I was stressed, in school then working, trying to always pump for my son while he was in daycare. It was stressful. I found it easier to focus on weight loss once I was done but honestly don't think it would have made a difference either way.

i think that its pretty easy to cook but ive never really failed at it so wouldnt know. I eat fast food once in a while but not so much anymore. The place I love is A & W. you can get sweet potato french fries and a grilled chicken deluxe buurger and its not too far over your calorie range - if at all and tastes yummy with…

You know what - this post really hit home for me. .... I am 5'7" and weighed in at 262 pounds on January 6, 2014. That too was my slap in the face. I am currently 225 pounds. Lost about 35 pounds... Wishing I was down to your weight but I can see it already! Congrats on your weight loss and I look forward to posting my…

OP for me breastfeeding did not help - at all. and I was not able to successfully lose weight until I quit breastfeeding. Also I breastfed for a year and did not get a period at all until I completely weaned my son. I agree with the food scale thing. Since I began logging more meticulously I have started seeing weight come…

#17 is the best! HAHAHA

Thank you OP for clarifying, and to the rest of you people who just assume she is lazy F off. I had to live with my parents when I was in school and they always think they know best. Even when youre paying rent/food etc. I agree with the nuts and jerky comment. I used to hide my snacks in my room ;)
