Girrrllll..... look at that FLAT TUMMY!!! You look amazing!! I **love** your hair, outfit, EVERYTHING in your second to last picture. You look stunning!!

Um.... 24

Thank you. Thank you for being living proof that people can change for the better. You deserve every bit of happiness and healthiness this life has to give you, and I hope that it's a very, very long one. Congratulations on all of your successes. You truly are an inspiration, not just to those who want to lose weight, but…

**HUGS** I can really relate to a lot of your post. I'm so glad you're here and that you're taking action! You deserve to go out in public and NOT think those things about yourself. We're always our worst enemies though, aren't we? :(

Well, what motivated me to begin THIS time (and hopefully this is the LAST 'beginning') is the fact that I graduate law school in 103 days AND have my 10 year high school reunion in July. Those are two very monumental events in my life and I don't want to let my weight hold me back from really enjoying those times.

OOHHH!! I'm putting this on my list of things to try!! I love ice cream... LOVE it!

ICE CREAM!!!! God bless Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches. :love:

Thank you for posting such an inspirational message! With that amazing attitude of yours, there's no doubt in my mind that you won't reach your goals! Congratulations on all that you have accomplished thus far, and on all the successes that are sure to come! I can see a very obvious difference in your photographs. You have…

I know if I ate 1900 calories a day, I *might* maintain, but would probably gain (but slowly). I follow 1200 on days I don't work out. I've had a personal trainer before and she agreed with that. If I follow this, like I'm supposed to, I lose between 1 to 2 pounds per week. Everyone's different though. I do agree with the…

You have amazing lips!

Your makeup and skin tone are flawless!

Oh gosh. I think I have several. I blog. I coupon like crazy. (Just spent $24.70 on $163.44 worth of goodies at Wal-Greens tonight. Mostly medicine. In retrospect, I bet I'm added to some government list for making drugs now. :laugh:) I knit. I listen to "Learn How to Speak Spanish" podcasts in the car. And, as others have…

There are a lot of collage apps for the iPhone, that I believe are available for the Droids as well. Search collages in your app store and you should find some. Oh, and if you're forced to do it on the computer--Picnik is the answer. Easy peasy.

You were not born with three nipples, or if you were it's not obvious. :)

I think every woman can relate to this! I know I can.

We have a Wii and I really need to look into one of these games. It seems like a fun way to start the day and get in exercise at the same time.

My week 3 (so far) has been my strongest one since week 1. BUT--I am so, SO worried that I will go crazy this weekend though when I go out of town. :( I'm thinking of popping open one of these workout DVDs that I bought a few years ago but *ahem* never used and giving it a go a few days a week. I have got to get my…

It sounds like a lot of us are in the same boat. But ya know what? We're still here dang it! So we deserve some type of credit for that! I hope everyone has a better week! Keep moving forward.

You look fantastic! Congratulations and thanks for sharing your story!

Congratulations!!

Well, I believe that MFP guidelines state that you're only allowed to use the MFP tickers. As far as I know, the types of tickers you're talking about you'd have to get from other sites and then just copy and paste the codes into your signature box, under or above your weight-loss ticker. I've noticed that tickerfactory…

ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THE CHALLENGE IS WELCOME!! Friend me!! Friend others you see on the threads!! Ask to join a team!! Anything!!

Great idea! I'm doing this now. THEN, I suppose I should contact MY team members.... oops! bahaha. HOW IS DAY ONE GOING FOR EVERYONE?! I didn't get any exercise in today due to work and was planning on walking this evening outside with the fam since it feels so good outside but now it's storming, so I guess it's no…

Sorry about that! I probably couldn't read my own writing. ;)

AHHHHHHH! lol. I added you to Team 3! ;) Glad you got in on the action JUST in time because I'm seriously going to bed now. lol.

I added you to Group 2! Sorry to anyone else who wishes to join after this. I'm heading to bed and won't be editing the teams anymore. I really wish everyone could join but, the challenge starts in the morning. Thanks to all who have joined. Let's do this. ;)

Haye guys! We ended up with 45 participants so I broke us up into 6 teams: 3 teams of 7 and 3 teams of 8. The teams are listed below. I tried my best to break everyone up based on interests, goals, or methods of exercise, etc. This wasn't an easy task considering the limited information I had to go on, but again, I did my…

YAY! Looks like we've got our group! There's 38 of us! What do y'all feel is a good size "team"? I'm thinking of having 5 teams total: 4 teams of 8 and 1 team of 6. Or would y'all rather see more teams with a smaller amount of members per team? Remember, the point of teams is so that you can have more personalized…

You do! I'll add to the list until midnight when I go to bed so that I can team everyone up tomorrow! Including myself, we've got 34 signed up so far!
