Wow!! Amazing!!!

You know I actually knew that. If I've just eaten and I'm hungry, I drink instead. Usually helps. I drink between 2-3 litres a day on average.

Thank you caranais. I will try that. I just hope I can eat within my cals!

This may sound like a silly question, but what is A simple carb?

I really really appreciate you pondering this and coming back. Yeah I guess so. I've spent the last 6 or so hours with hunger pangs because of it. Avoiding eating because I ate too much today for my goals, (I had a treat) but it's so uncomfortable. I've been at a plateau for a few weeks, while eating at 1200, so during a…

You're 51?!??! Is that a typo? I thought you were 18!! At most 21. Wow you look amazing!

That is very exciting!!!! Congratulations!!

You've done great!!! Sorry to hear about your stall. So so discouraging when that happens!! I don't really have alive, but I like what others have said about taking a break and just focusing on maintenance or how you feel. :) As long as you keep in mind its a lifestyle, and keep doing what you're doing, you'll eventually…

Thanks guys!! I'm excited for the next 65! Can't wait to see what my body wI'll look like as I've never been thin as an adult.

What a great story!!! Great job!! You'll get back there!!

Thank you! I think I'm going to go all the way this time. I tried a few times, but had babies, so it kept screwing up my progress!!

Thank you :)

I have!! I got up to about 270 after my first. Same thing... C section and breastfeeding took its toll on me. (I'm 5'2 so that's pretty big on such a small frame) I lost 70 pounds and sat at 200. Couldn't break it. Then stress and another pregnancy led to me being back up to about 240 or so. Then I lost down to 210, then a…

I'm on temporary medication right now. I finally told myself that I needed it. I still have ups and downs though. Thank you all for your kind and supportive words!! I definitely feel better about my progress. Also, I had no idea that I had an hour glass figure. I always thought I had a pear figure *Shrug*

I don't wear glasses :P haha, but thank you. It really does mean a lot that people here at least see it. Maybe it will help me.

Wow!! That's awesome! Great job! You're going to have such nice body when you're done.Your skin looks flawless !!

I think I was happier then... But that had to do with a struggle with post partum depression. Maybe that has something to do with why I can't see it? It's been a couple of tough months, and not being able to see my progress is discouraging. Still going on the hopes that I'll see it soon.

Thank you for your kind words! I need it. People that know me don't say anything either. I think I'm just feeling discouraged. I need others points of view who understand the world of weight loss. Thank you all again!

Maybe I should do that... I tucked my scale away a couple days ago though. It was driving me Batty. I guess I need to just take a breather and relax. I'm not quite sure how to do that, but I should try.

I don't really feel it either yet :S Thank you for your kind words. I'm hoping that one day I will just wake up, and I'll see it!

Another person that loves this thread!! I haven't seen this one but now that I'm 60 pounds down, shaving my legs has become so much easier. I can bend right over and see my ankles. I used to have so many missed hairs, now not so much. Also, I used to get dizzy from being bent over so long. Not anymore!

My mind hasn't caught up. I'm down 60 pounds and I don't see it AT ALL! Unless I compare the pictures. But I'm basically still wearing the same clothes (Though they're more loose) and in the mirror I just can't see it. Also, no one else does. So I don't hear any comments at all. I would love to start hearing that I've made…

That is so awesome!!! I feel guilty for going to the gym too!! I'm really hoping it pays off for me one day, just like it did for you!! Congratulations on being super mom!!

That's awesome!!! Great success!! Definitely the right attitude going towards this!

That must have felt great!! Good job!

I'm 61 pounds down and neither I nor others can see it. My husband and dad have seen it, but they are well aware of my determination. People who don't know that I'm trying to lose weight haven't said anything. I hope you see it much faster than me! However, I can see it in my pictures. So yes, take pictures!

That's awesome!! Congratulations! You must feel amazing!

SW: 260 CW: 200 GW: 130 Still a ways to go, but I took this comparison pic today wearing the same shirt. Not too shabby.

Aw!! That's amazing! Not to mention, she's absolutely beautiful too! I so happy you saw the new you! Great job, and happy anniversary on your weight loss!!

That's so exciting!! Congratulations!! Before you know it you'll be jogging 5 and 10k!!! Keep at it!
