Hahahahaha! I seriously stopped talking to a friend that kept trying to sell to me too. Don't ever become a seller, it'll ruin your business network.

Yeah the second people get off it, they gain it all back. I'd rather stick to real protein shakes personally.

Also, I stopped logging workouts and just stuck to my calories that way. It helped a lot I went from losing 1lb a week to 4

Yeah it'd be easier to tell if we saw what you ate

I'm sure someones said this , but wow your skin is elastic! That much change in that amount of time and it looks like you've never been a pound over average. Great work

Oh wow, that's close to where I'm starting from now. I started at 245 and my goal is to get below 200 right now. Good luck on your goal!

Thanks for the info!

This happened to me! I actually bought it though. Surprisingly it's working well though lol. I guess I go lucky

Meal replacements aren't all bad. I used to never eat breakfast, which is bad. Now that I drink shakes it's pretty much like I eat breakfast. If I stop it'll probably be if I start having more time in the mornings to make breakfast.

Yeah I agree, you should try it and see if your hungry after. I started off drinking them for breakfast along with eating a hand fruit. Currently, I just drink my shake and my black coffee and I'm good. Eggs and bacon would be a better breakfast though....

I started on Lean 25 about a month ago, I love it. I already see results. Also, they have every flavor imaginable for a protein shake. I just finished off Pumpkin spice today. Tomorrow I start orange creamsicle.

wegmans has good ones, if you have a wegmans near you

23 and hella awesome! Let's motivate each other!

Is it just me or is he even sexier now that he's a you know what?! (don't want to spoil it) Lol at first I didn't know if I should be upset or not, but I think I love it lmao! Oh and I finished parks and recks not too long ago amy pahlmer is my soul mate haha

I am definitely trying to surround myself with positive people, you all are so encouraging. I'm really glad I posted this! Side note... I don't have any kids lol not sure where some of yall got that from. Someone said son another said daughter. Maybe I missed something haha :laugh: .

That's the biggest thing I'm learning! All the eating out was really holding me back, those calories add up a lot quicker. Not to mention how many carbs they usually have.Tracking has definitely helped open my eyes to why I wasn't seeing progress. Thank you! And good luck on your goal too. You're right we can do this!

Good point, my doctor actually wanted me to lose more haha! they didn't put a timeframe on it though. I'm currently 239lbs so the doctor said 135 is where I should shoot for. I don't think I was ever meant to be that tiny though lol. 79 is less than 2 lbs a week, but I'll definitely make sure I'm doing it healthy. I almost…

23 here currently 238, I want to be 165 and toned. Also, supernatural is my heart and soul, I love my sexy boys dean, sam, and cas! Ugh now you have me thinking about the season premiere on Tuesday lol! Anyone add me I love this idea :happy:

I honestly see where both of you are coming from... on the one hand that number is awfully overwhelming and focusing on it can be difficult, but on the other hand if I don't focus on it and just feel healthier if I don't actually lose anything at the end of the day I'm still technically morbidly obese(even though I don't…

Thank you for the link and the advice!

Very good advice. I might have to steal that massage idea! Or maybe even reward myself with a very small clothes shopping spree lol

You all are giving such great advice! I'm really over here making note of a lot of these things. Most have you have said take it a little at a time, and I do think you're right because looking at that big number is scary. I guess when you think of it a 1.5lbs a week it really doesn't sound as bad.

Oh I guess I should have explained I started in the summer, mid July I believe. I'm only 6 lbs down so far but I wasn't paying attention to diet so now I'm really trying to crack the whip on my dieting habits

Thank you all for your words of encouragement!

Hahaha I swear if I could lift all day and get the same results I would

My mom told me that was one of her biggest regrets, not setting a good example for me, so I really commend you for this

Thinking of the big picture is scary and I usually give up easier with that thinking, so today I will think about today. I really think I can do this.

This board really helped me. I really think I'm alone in these feelings sometime. I don't even know why I do it, honestly. Like I'm not emotional I think I'm just bored! So far I've been trying to replace sitting on the couch eating with at the gym on the treadmill watching netflix. It's really helped a lot so far. The…
