Special Thanks to each of you! Thank you for the straight talk! If you're willing to be an encourager and if you want/need more MFP friends, please request me. Each of you has helped me! Rethinking and refocusing is helpful. I will do this!

What "watch" do you use? I know this is an old post. I hope you have give more information now that you have had your "watch" for a while. I am looking into using something myself. I just don't know what to get. Thanks!

Thanks for the encouragement everyone!

It's about time for another update... ;)

I agree! Don't "punish" yourself with exercise, but give yourself a little break and get a little walk in. Just clear your head and start again tomorrow. You can do it!!!

I can't seem to make the pic smaller. Sorry. Working on it so you can see all the pics. ... fixed. A little smaller than anticipated.

I'm still here! I've struggled lately, too. I started at 242 in October of 2011 and got down to 199 in October 2012. Now, sitting at 210 and I need support, too. I'll make it a point to be more active here. I'd appreciate your encouragement, too.

I started at 242, at 199 now. It took a year. Check out my post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/766187-one-year-with-pics

Can you see the pics?

I have no idea why it's saying the photos were deleted or moved...

You look AMAZING!!! Keep taking care of yourself! That is so wonderful!

bump!

BUMP! ;-) Dinner for tonight!

Hey girl! I'm in your boat. Here's my "so far" success. I started Oct 2011 at 242lbs. I am down to 207 as of about 10 days ago. That is an average of 5lbs/month. I need to weigh in, but life has gotten hectic. I've been eating over my calories somedays, but I am moving more. My goal is high school graduation weight…

I'd like to have those recipes. They look delicious! Doesn't help that I'm hungry right now...

Bump. Those look amazing!

31.5 x 4 = 126 sticks of butter. That is really icky, but so awesome!!! Thanks for the idea!

Bump!

I like #2 the best, but #4 is a close runner up. You look great in all of them. I just like that style.

I totally know the feeling! I struggled and found that watching my carbs and sodium closer, I was able to start shedding the weight. I haven't had huge success, but 30+lbs in 32 weeks is "slow and steady wins the race." And that's my plan. I want to lose it slowly and the right way. I don't need to shed it like crazy and…

OUTSTANDING! That is so amazing. My favorite part is your huge smile in your recent picture! Congratulations!

AWESOME!!! I'm right behind you! I can't wait to join you in ONEderland!!!

I think you are inspiring. It takes a lot to make any decision toward weight loss. Your pictures are awesome! Keep up the good work! It is always helpful to me if I have a specific motivation. p.s. You're Animal shirt is awesome!
