Hi Everyone, cloths shopping is a bit of the pits. Sizes are all over the place. The only good bit I can take for it is when I went to one of the big and tall online stores I bought my last batch from I was too small for them. My size was still listed on the chart but were the first sizes listed and they were all out of…

Welcome Sharon, Glad you found us here and great to hear about how far you have come. I can completely relate to waiting for the 2's. I am so close and really want that mile stone but still have a some work to do before I can get their.

Well that puts my piss piddly day into perspective. I hope your son is doing better, and I hope you are doing better as well. I'm glad you were able to get a diagnosis and that their will be a treatment for him.

My plan for sticking to the program next week is to not order a bacon cheeseburger and not notice its a double, then get it, say F*** it and eat the whole thing...

I whole hardily believe all digital scale secretly are judging us. The only ones that don't are the ones with the balance beam.

My phone travels with me on all bike rides.

Your rocking it Lori! You have a lot more confidence then me, I would be a mess doing something like that and thats not taking into account my general loner personality and any excuse for anxiety.

Thanks everyone. It was just surprising me to see the tone and definition that was going on even though I still have plenty of weight to loose. I will defiantly have some loose skin on my stomach and thighs (I can see it when i look at myself in the mirror after a shower, I may enjoy the weight loss but it aint a pretty…

I'm glad everyone has come to this mindset, it's the one I have tired to have sense starting this journey. I called it a lifestyle change but the idea is similar. If i'm not eating and living in a way now that I can continue to do for the rest of my life then I have no hope of keeping the weight off. The weight loss is an…

Hello Hello everyone, It's been a fairly good September. Hit many goals and accomplished quite a bit for myself so I am happy. I actually posted about my last big bike ride in the other group form (I think you are all member's right?) if you want to read about it, otherwise I can post it here as well.…

Thanks Julie, I certainly have been enjoying life a lot more.

I still go to the farmers market nearly each weekend, but now and days my backpack is mostly filled with fruit. After two months I just grew tired of salad... or lazy... I do need to get back to it, knowing I am loosing without it doesn't help, lol.

I got back on the bike and did my first real attempt at a ride on June 16, 2014. So 3 months and 13 days. I've done 46 rides since that time for a total of 692.11 miles. I needed a new exercise and remember enjoying it as a kid so got the old bike out of the garage and fixed up and started riding. My first time was around…

It wasn't all that long ago when 2km was all about I could do either.

Thats good because you might be the only one to complete this challenge, lol.

I think thats fair.

I think thats like saying the pumpkin in my pumping chocolate chip muffin was a vegetable. I've already failed this week.

I don't know if its a superstition or more a habit but I now need to drink water out of my kantine. I got it specifically to help me to remember to drink and to drink a lot so when i forget it or leave it behind I forget to drink.

I have a feeling we can get away with having some servings of fruit and vegetables each day as the goal. Or perhaps none of us will get the point this week, lol.

Well I did a little online looking and did some of my measurements so I think I will purchase a few sets of clothing. Not a lot since in two or three months they wont fit either. But by that time I should fit into some of my old stuff since I have a closet full of cloths I can't actually believe I once fit in. Thankfully I…

I completed my challenge but now the weather has taken a turn and it has been raining today but things are finely starting to clear. I'm glad for the rain, we certainly need a lot more of it but It has reminded me I have to figure out what I am going to do exercise wise now that the weather is turning. I can keep trying to…

I should probably purchase some new cloths before getting rid of all the old ones. I would like to have something to wear... Goody, my favorite activity. I could do it online, just need to be able to return if my measurements are off.

Welcome Claire and good luck on your journey.

At the moment their is a schedule of challenges for each week. Though after we are done with this weeks challenge we can do it grab bang style if everyone want's. just post your thoughts and we can come to some decision.

Magic salad.

Lol Wennim, I look at my license and think, soon enough I will be the weight I put on my license all those years ago.

Went on two bike rides today.

We are on the same trail Cari. I think everyone here who is finding success is finding it because they are working on changing their lifestyle and not obsessing about the weight loss. I know I am enjoying this new life much more then the old one. I always use to think of weightless as a tedious chore, when in reality this…

Here is a video on how to do it in google chrome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olw41W484Cs

Got in double walking today for 20,000 steps.
