It's just calories in vs. calories out. So the right answer is to do what works for you in order to control the calories in. I can't eat 1 slice of pizza. I have to have 4. Therefore I eat pizza rarely and eat chicken and egg whites and vegetables instead. I love ice cream, I can eat a small portion and be happy, so I eat…

A baby giraffe. Wow.

What a gorgeous family you are! Congrats to you all!

Thank you to everyone for the kind comments! I'm thrilled that some of you find my progress inspiring and I genuinely hope it helps motivate you to reach for whatever goal you've set your mind to today. Day 366 is now upon me and I've decided today will be the day I attempt to ice skate. I suspect that in about 6 hours or…

I've lost 120 so far so I know you can do it! I still have about 40 or so to lose. Anyone can feel free to add me if they like. Please include a short message with your friend request or it will be declined.

Agreed. Such a huge disappointment when they turn out to be peppermint instead of cherry because they can look identical. The peppermint ones should come with warning labels IMHO.

:o Cherry candy canes are the bomb!

Way to go!! Very inspiring!

Thanks everyone. And congrats to you too malibu927!!

Bragging is allowed! Great accomplishments! Congrats to the whole family!

Congratulations!! You look so incredibly healthy and happy!

I'm always happy to add new friends. I do ask that people include a short message with the friend request or I automatically decline.

Congrats on all your success! Your hard work is paying off.

That's amazing. YOU'RE amazing! Good for you for taking control and choosing life!!

Hi fellow Canuck! Feel free to add me to your friends list if you'd like....anyone can me add me actually, but please include a message with a little bit of info or at least a "hi" or the request will get declined. Some days all you may get is a "like" on your food diary, but I try to be as active on my feed as possible.

I'm 102 pounds down now and I don't see it when I look in a mirror. Every once in a while I'll catch my reflection in something and I'll notice it then, but staring in a mirror.....I still look/feel huge. I keep hoping the mind will catch up to the body soon....

Keep up the great work!

You look amazing!! Congratulations!

Congrats on the victory!

Not so sure these old knees will ever be able to handle that, but never say never! I do have a lofty goal of being able to run to the gym near my house eventually, which is about 3.2K so we'll see.

Ahhhhh...thanks for explaining! LOL!

This is actually quite helpful advice! I love it. Thank you! LOL!

I don't know who this is, so there was no need to apologize, unless you were somehow insulting me of course. Maybe it's an age thing and that's why I don't know what you're referring to. All good anyway!

I have a fitbit flex. My ticker should tell you if it was worth it. Huge motivator. HUGE

You guys are all just too kind! Thank you very much for all the sweet messages. I've had a lot of friend requests and I've happily accepted them all. I do try to keep up with all the news feed notifications, make comments on food diaries and generally be as encouraging as I possible can, but many days I only have time for…

Same as all the above posters. I never eat breakfast or I'm starving all day. I usually "break my fast" anywhere from 11:30 am to 1 pm.

Stop focusing on how much you need to lose overall and just start focusing on what you can achieve today. And then you do the same thing tomorrow. And before you know it, a year of doing your best from day to day has you weighing in 80 pounds lighter. That's what works for me anyway. I just do the very best I can TODAY.…

MapMyFitness finally synced for me this morning. I didn't do anything to the settings, it just started up again by itself.

MapMyFitness was syncing up fine for me for months but stopped working 3 days ago and I cannot reconnect the two. Serious bummer. I hope there's a fix soon.

Way to go!!
