OK I have updated the spread-sheet! Still need a few start weights, if your's isn't there, feel free to put it in. I left the spreadsheet open so we could all edit it! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Amrup3yRT0TMdGRlWWJNRnowdm1WS3ZlVGN4MUZRenc&hl=en_US#gid=0

OK!! Today I am 246 lbs My measurements are: Neck :14.5 Left Bicep : 16 Right Bicep : 17 Chest : 44 Waist : 40 Hips : 53 Right Thigh : 28 Left Thigh : 28 Right Calf : 17 Left calf : 17.5

There is definitely hope!! You just went through a HUGE change and your skin (and fat cells under it) need time to catch up! If you give it two years, lots of water, and strength training you will see a huge improvement. It may not be perfect, but it will be better!! Moisturise, dry brush, look up collagen promoting…

I previously lost 90lbs, the loose skin was worse at first, but after a couple years it tightened up quite a bit. Especially since I wasn't actively doing anything to get rid of it. This time, once I am at goal, I plan to get my body fat percentage down more and continuing to weight train and tone while drinking lots of…

Go for a brisk walk later in the day, or even do a couple hills. It'll get that blood moving and help prevent the sore muscles! The water is good, and making sure you are getting lots of protein to help build muscle. My husband uses a glutamine supplement for muscle repair. He loves it, but I don't think I'd use it until I…

I'm not "there" yet, but I started this year at 307, didn't get serious about my journey until Sept 13th, I started actually using MFP then at 287lbs, and weighed in on Monday at 247. I'm on my way for sure and won't stop until I get there!! Just remember, even if/when you "fall off the wagon", the wagon stops and waits…

Great job!! You look fabulous!! Hardly even look like the same person :O

Awesome job!!! You rocked it, and you look fabulous!

:) Thank you!!

Thank you! That's why I LOVE MFP!!

My RHR is usually in the 40's. I went to my Doc about it, but he just told me its a 'great thing'. So, I'm not worrying about it for now.

Sometimes mine does that because it rolls over. I have to make sure I have it wet and positioned in a way that it won't roll or twist around.

100oz iz 12.5 cups, which should equal out to (at least how I do it) 3 litres + 1/2 a cup :)

I weigh meat, cheese, yogurt, and anything else that uses weight for serving size :)

247!!

Hmmm I would think low intensity for the coughing. Lots of walking, maybe a couple DVD's.

BUMP

You look Fabulous!! Amazing job!

Hmmm, well I tried.

I just had "Oh Boy" salad 1 cup cucumber 1 chopped tomato 1 tablespoon half fat mayo 1 teaspoon dill weed 90cal and delicous and filling

Wahoo!! Yay for you!! You look Great!!

Bump! It also has all my progress pics so far :)

Weekly weigh-in and explanations. What we succeeded at and what we need to work on. I think weekly challenges would be great, but probably with our own goals as I respect that everyone does this differently. Maybe some like : try 3 new foods this week, drink ___oz of water every day, burn ____ calories for the week through…

I know we can ALL do this!! I'm so excited to see all our progress in the coming months :) Does anyone else have any "action plans"?

Bump! :)

I just recently had to halt my running too due to Plantar faciitis! I'm hoping I can start back to in in January.., My plan of attack for January is to do the 30 day shred and 3 days of running or gym cardio :)

I wouldn't mind the challenge going to June 22nd. That's my 30th birthday and I want to be in ONEDERLAND

Ok: Last week I was up to 252.4 and this week is 249.5 You are a rock star! AND my name on the spreadsheet is actually chickie_20 because I changed my user-name

Totally excited for this challenge! Can't wait to start on the 2nd!!

Ha ha! I usually have at least 9-12 cups per day. I make sure I drink 2-3 upon getting up and one with or after breakfast. Then I keep a water bottle that holds 3 cups on hand and try to drink it 2-3 more times one by lunch/early afternoon. one around dinner and one before bed :)
