Now that's true hard work and dedication! Congrats to your success thus far! Amazing accomplishment!
-
That's great progress in a month! It doesn't matter how fast it takes you, progress is progres and it's a success!! Keep it up and you can and will achieve anything you want!
-
WTG, you can really tell the progress that you've made!
-
Awesome, very noticable difference in your body shape and face! Keep up the good work!!

Forgive yourself for a bad day...it'll be pretty impossible to exercise 1000 calories off in one day, but make an effort to burn "some" calories either by walking or going to the gym. Most likely you'll burn around 200 but...tomorrow is a new day. Start fresh and maybe don't set your calorie goal to 1,200 if that is to far…

Girl, you're just letting the YOU that was there all along out! We all have amazing potential, it's about realizing it and sticking to it. Congrats to you for making a LIFESTYLE change because honestly, lets face it....it was well worth the wait wasn't it?! You look fantastic!

Addictions can be so hard to cope with. Honestly, I would force myself to spread it on something. I think you enjoy the taste of PB but you continue to eat spoonfuls b/c you are not getting "full" from eating it. You would literally have to go through a 1/2 jar to even feel full. I would say, buy yourself some sandwich…

I was very late to the FB game. I'm kinda sorry I created an account. I felt like I was "missing out" somehow on peoples lives....but now I'm sorry I did. You realize how catty people can be, how cruel the "faceless world" of FB can be. How pointless clicking through peoples pictures and updates are.....the people that…

Good job! WTG!!!

I officially weigh in once a week and check my weight probably every day just for reference. I would not officially record your weight every day b/c it would be in accurate....considering your weight can fluctuate considerably from day to day. A solid week is a long enough amount of time to determine if you lost or gained.
-
WTG, that is some SERIOUS accomplishment!
-
Oh for sure!! That's awesome that you pushed yourself to do it. In the end...I'm sure it didn't seem so much like a chore, you ended up feeling better then before you'd started!! WTG!!

Sometimes NSV's can be more satisfying then a SV. When you get compliments its just the greatest feeling b/c it sort of reassures you that all your hard efforts are paying off. Also, I noticed, when I was at my highest weight I was not dressing very well. I was extremely embaressed of how I looked and stopped trying. I…

It is possible. However it depends on how close you are to a healthy weight. Or maybe you're already a healthy weight trying to lower your BMI?! Anyway....I find that for people that have *more* weight to lose, they can easily take off 10 lbs in 4 weeks....if you only have 10 lbs to lose (in total) it might be harder to…

Your little "check mark" is almost off of your tracker lol. You blew past your goal weight. Good for you. You look so different and you have a lot to be proud of. I'm sure it wasn't easy at times but the results were well worth. Congrats!
-
I've heard good things about P90X. I also heard it whoops your butt! Which is sort of intimidating to me.....obv. with dedication the program works wonders. You look great!! Not only do you look thinner but "toner" which is what everyone wants as well when they lose weight. Bravo!
-
Great job!! Keep up your hard efforts b/c they're paying off for you. :-D
-
It is amazing what our bodies can do with hard work and determination. Keep it up, the results are amazing and I'm sure you feel great! Congrats to you!

It took me 3 months to lose 30 lbs. I used Weight Watchers in the beginning, I'm still a member right now but I'm not really using their site for tracking, just the community portion of it. Although last year I was tracking with their Points system. As of about a month ago, I tried MFP and have been doing calorie counting…

I don't replace my meals with a shake per se...but occasionally I'll replace my lunch on campus with a Builder's Clif Bar which has 270 calories and 20 whopping grams of protein....it def helps hold me over until I can get home and eat dinner. I don't think it's the *best* idea considering it's not a wholesome meal but it…
-
Ugh yes. It can be an awful feeling at times. I hate the heightened sense of awareness it brings to putting food in my mouth. I started my weight loss progress with WW. When I first started it was awful...I had to stop to check nutritional info and I got super frustrated....but then one member I met said something that…
-
Just keep that chin up and stay super confident about your success! You are down 41 lbs!! When I hit my 40 lb mark I started comparing my weight loss to random house hold items and other various things. Think about one of those gigantic bags of dog food that are like 25 lbs. You have lost almost 2 of those!! If ever for a…

I too started out my weight loss journey around 227, I was at 228 lbs and it feels great to no longer be referred to as obese. I completely understand. You look fabulous and you have a lot to be proud of, stick with it and only more good things will come your way!

You'te not obligated to but you have the option to. When you track your exercise here on the website you'll notice it adds those calories back to your daily calories you get every day. If you want to eat a little more you can. You might want to eat some of those calories but not all, or on a particular day that you're…

I've tried pretty much every flavor. Really like the Strawberry Watermelon, & Peach Tea, I like the Berry Pomegranate, Mango Peach and the Sweet Tea I could take or leave....I like the others more the the Sweet Tea. It's worth a shot. The directions tell you one big squirt for a bottle of water but if you add a little…

You could have a 100 calorie slice of white, and a 100 calorie slice of wheat, but the wheat is going to keep you satisfied & full longer b/c most brands tend to have more fiber. This is what's going to keep you going longer. And to be honest....I'm using the fact that both can be 100 calories but in reality USUALLY the…

You look wonderful! You did an awesome job losing weight and you have a lot to be proud of. :-D
-
WTG! You look so different. You've accomplished so much. :-D
-
I think the pill has tons of benefits, i.e.: regulates you, clears acne, prevents unwanted pregnancy, etc... I have been on & off the pill under doctor's orders b/c I have PCOS and I know that it helps me in some ways....but I get very very sick from it. I was feeling nauseous every morning and sometimes vomiting. I don't…

Glad you were able to do that. I just wrote a paper on obesity in America and one thing I mentioned in my paper was the fact that people eat what's put in front of them. It's as if we don't know what a normal portion size is anymore. Btw, I used to work at Olive Garden so I know that the dinner portions are a pretty good…
