SW: 282, CW: 217.8 or so and started like 6 1/2 months ago. :) So this chart doesn't have ALL my info on it but it's close enough time-wise.

So I've had a bento box for the longest time and have never used it, so I decided to see what I could scrounge up without going to the store (for fun). It doesn't have a lot of color (which would be easy to change with bell peppers or whatever!), but that's okay. Here's my cute little box that I'm convinced I got at a…

I stayed in my original jeans for a few months, and have been in the next size jeans for a few more months. I'd also like to point out that 12 days is not enough time, and your body is just going to lose weight where it wants to. In terms of measurements, I lost mostly from my thighs for a few months and then my poor butt…

Yesterday, I'm pretty sure I survived off coffee and brownies, with a serving or two of chips. I didn't eat anything that could be called a real meal (although I did initially only eat carrots and celery). Dang Super Bowl party. :p

I usually do okay during my period now with cravings, but I just got done with mine and ate like a million brownies. Oops! :p

Gotten back into Guild Wars 2 lately (I take a ton of breaks from it every now and then), and I'm replaying Silent Hill 2. XD

Doctor appointment on Tuesday…

I also got diagnosed with hypothyroidism, got on medicine, and have had pretty much 0 problems losing weight. However, I got diagnosed a few months after I had started losing weight and had no trouble losing up to that point so maybe I'm just lucky. But I'm a pretty diligent logger to the best of my abilities. Everyone's…

I keep it to myself (of course my husband knows cause we live together), but eventually if you stick with it long enough, people ARE going to start noticing and bring it up. I basically get bombarded now with questions every time I see extended family or certain friends who notice things. While these questions and…

I saw this a little while ago, and think it's totally cute. I hope they both just go visit the hospitals anyway, but regardless, that will be such a treat for the kids. (also, yay sports ball! So excited for the game anyway!)

I also met my husband playing World of Warcraft (many years ago), so I think I'm terrible at giving dating advice. Especially since most of the people I knew on WoW were guys, so statistically, I was outnumbered being the only girl that usually was in the group so I tended to get a lot of flirty attention from my guildies.…

I also let the cold weather get the best of me, and have been stuck in week 3 for way too long. I may restart the program when it warms up, but I definitely want to finish it!

Honestly, sometimes I don't leave my gaming to make better choices. :p But like Troutsy, if I'm getting exceptionally bad, I'll make a deal with myself. My last deal I made (not gaming related but could work just as easily for that) was that I had to earn "football credit" by working out. So in order to watch a football…

I actually might be going to Japan later this year for the first time to visit some family. I'm nervous and super excited. Best of luck to you with your weight loss, and hope you enjoy your trip. :)

Well according to this list and my good buddy WebMD, I must already have cancer. :p

That and the pillowcase are super freaking adorable. *swoons* As for me, I'm a gamer and like a wide variety of nerdy things. Yay common interests!

You look great! I wish I had had my husband take more full body pictures of me to start with cause you can really notice a difference. Awesome job!

I started at 42DD, and once I found a great high impact sports bra (I got mine at Lane Bryant), I started jogging/running, hula hooping, and biking. But I feel your pain. XD Before I got the sports bra, trying to jog was torture and hurt my back. Once you find a good one, it really does make everything way easier.

I haven't cut sweets out, and I'm a HUGE sweets addict, so I can't really comment on that. However, sort of related, I cold turkey quit soda over a year ago (I was also addicted to it). I couldn't just ween myself off of it - I had to just stop. So either try to figure out a way you can control your sweets portions or just…

Nah, wear your spandex and just do your own thing.

Well, now I'm uncomfortable. :D For me: running!

You had me at mac and cheese. My weakness. Personally, I've been into video games since I was a child (was mostly player 2 cause I was the younger sibling), I watch way too many shows - Doctor Who, Supernatural, Arrow, The Flash, Walking Dead are some examples of what I've been watching lately. I love Batman villains a…

I buy these every time I go to the store. Sometimes they're sold out, and I have a weird existential crisis trying to figure out what I should do.

I started at 282 nearly 6 months ago. I know how scary it can be - but you can do it! It's a learning process!

I agree with the brain not catching up thing. I look at myself and sometimes I somehow think I have lost no weight and the scale has somehow lied for about 58 pounds. XD I'm the same with the knees thing, and my collar bone. Sometimes I sit here and I'm touching my collar bone and realizing what my body is supposed to look…

I started "running" around 282 pounds (5'6") so I was in a very similar starting position to you! It was mostly me starting out as a very slow walker, and adding in little bursts of jogging - which made me wheeze embarrassingly. Not even 6 months later, and I just ran for 40 straight minutes without stopping and probably…

Definitely rooting for the Packers for this game! Hope it's a good game, regardless.
