Cheerleaders wanted: :wink: I've been on MFP for a while, but unfortunately a lot of my friends have fallen off the wagon so to speak and I need people in my corner who will help keep me motivated. I'm 98lbs down and about 60 to go! I don't want to give up now! :happy:

This is an awesome topic! Ok, first off, people, listen to me. Skin is like elastic, yes, elastic will bounce back but for how long? Have you ever seen a worn out pair of socks or a bra that's been through the dryer one too many times? Ok then, that being said, ladies, wear a BRA! Gravity is not our friend I'm afraid and…

Thank you for being brave and posting ALL your pics. I'm inspired and comforted to know I'm not the only one with skin issues. Great job! You look fantastic!

I do the hot yoga classes through Core Power and I LOVE it! I feel so good afterward. The stress just melts away, and hopefully so will the pounds!

A few months after having my last child I went out to eat with my husband and couldn't fit in a booth. That was the last straw for me.

I'm right there with you. I'm on week 2 of the "couch to 5K" feeling good so far, and that's the important thing. Keep moving ;)

Best: Track everything that goes into your mouth, you eat more than you think you do. Worst: Just push yourself away from the table.

Stress and the stress hormones that follow cause weight gain and weight retention. Perhaps after a very low stress period your body was able to let go.

You'll love it! Do wear lightweight comfortable shoes. There are people in my class who actually do this barefoot. I wore bulky crosstrainers my first class (I wouldn't recommend it) and ended up in my socks.

Yes, I plan my meals. Not more than one day ahead, but I do plan and map out my calories and pack my "lunch" (I work a 12 hr night shift) accordingly. It really helps me stay on track and make better choices.

I don't eat my exercise calories back in general. I do sometimes eat a few of them (via an extra glass of milk or a piece of fruit) if I have a particularly tough work out or I have more than 400 exercise calories that day.

Oh believe me I know! I'm an RN and even my co workers (who should know better) are constantly looking for the easy road. There is no easy road. I see lots of patients after bariatric surgery too and I hate to be the one to tell them that it still all comes down to diet and exercise, even after bypass surgery. I've come to…
