Just what I needed this morning! Thanks for sharing your story! Great job!

I had a lot of success the first month of low-carb lifestyle. The second month not so much but I've been focused more on eating clean than eating low-carb. Now in my third month I'm focusing on eating clean, calorie deficit, strength training and moving more! Good luck to you but I would try and lean more toward clean…

I've been told that for our weight range, you typically start to "see" it after 20 lbs. I've lost 16 and can barely tell other than my clothes fitting more comfortably.

50 lbs...took years off. You look awesome! Way to go!!!!

Such an inspiration! Amazing work! Thank you for sharing your success...it motivates!

Absolutely! Celebrate your success. 1.) Younger looking clothes...awesome idea! I wouldn't recommend stores like Abercrombie though...unless you're a teenager or a frat boy. I would stick with Gap, Banana Republic, Express Men...even Target has good stuff if you're on a budget. Just stay away from "dad" jeans, colored…

Amazing transformation! You rock!

What an inspiration! Thank you soooooo much for sharing. Just what I needed to hear.

I have the Fitbit Flex and I love it. I also have the FitBit Aria smart scale as well. I love that it syncs with MFP and can take away calories or give you calories depending on your activity for the day. It also tracks my sleep quality which I like as well. I wear mine 24/7 except for the shower (which you actually can…

I have the Fitbit Aria and I love it so far! Had a little trouble setting is up with my home WiFi but once I took the batteries out it reset and worked. I love that it syncs with my Fitbit dashboard (I have the Fitbit Flex), MyFitnessPal and also my employee Virgin Health Miles account without me having to go to a million…

Excellent work! Congratulations!

It's hard for our loved ones that we see every day to notice the change. You look like great and you are on track! Great job, keep it up!

You look amazing! Such a great inspiration. Thank you for sharing! Just what I needed this morning.

You and your daughter look like you could be sisters! The transformation is amazing.

It doesn't have to be ALL or NOTHING.

I have a similar schedule but I spend a lot more time commuting and don't currently set aside time for exercise :( I have my settings set for sedentary and recently started using the Fitbit Flex. I love it! I move around more than I thought I did and I have been eating back some of the extra calories burned. So far so…

Forgive yourself and move forward!

Hate is a strong word but I get it...taste wise if I had the choice between a starch or a veggie for a side my taste buds would be screaming for mashed potatoes, mac n' cheese or rice something or another. But, because I'm on this weigh loss journey not just for myself but also to set a good example for my kids and keep…

Slow and steady wins the race, you are doing great! You carry your weight very well too!

I got that email too! I've been trying to incorporate more protein into my breakfast and have been making "egg muffins" chopped bell pepper chopped tomato chopped onion chopped turkey bacon mix and pour veggie mix into a muffin pan, filling them about 3/4 of the way Then add a egg mix and baking at 350 for 25 minutes. So…

Not sure where you are located but there's a resale retail chain called Clothes Mentor here, similar to Plato's closet but a little more work appropriate. Maybe try shopping there until you make it to the regular size clothes. It sucks to spend money on clothes you'll only wear for a small amount of time. When I was an at…

Amazing work!

Congratulations! ONEderland is a desirable place!

Amazing determination! Great job!

I can completely relate...I think the most I've lost is 20 lbs but it seems like that is or was the magic number to make me think I could "treat" myself to my old/bad ways. My doc told me that my style of dieting is an "all or nothing" approach, I'm either eating great and working out every day or doing nothing and I need…

You are amazing!
