  • Great post!!! I do struggle with loving myself the way I am now. Don't get me wrong, I do like who I am and I know that I am a genuinely nice, kind and caring person and that part of me I love but I do struggle to find my worth when I see how I look. I think it's great that you have always loved yourself no matter your…
  • Wow!!! You look amazing!! I must admit I think that has always been a big reason that I have not seriously stayed with the weight loss in the past was the fear of all the loose skin. It does still bother me but with your post it's nice to know that there is hope and this is so doable. I hope you enjoy every minute in your…

  • 190 does sound high but let that be your initial goal. Once you get to that weight you can make new goals if needed. Don't stress yourself out over this. Just keep moving forward. God Bless!!! :flowerforyou:
  • Wow!!! You look great and are such an inspiration to us all. Thanks for sharing your pics with us. God Bless!!! :smile:
  • Both photos are very nice but I'm sure the second one makes you very happy. You look great!! :smile:
  • Congrats on the 80 lbs. lost and your 1 year anniversary. Your story inspires us and give us hope. Keep up the great work. You've got this!!! God Bless!!! :flowerforyou:
  • Who's to say what's normal and what's not anymore. I think it's great that you are searching for new recipes and creating new ways to make them even healthier. This recipe looks and sounds delicious and anything with crab in it is just the best. I'm originally from Maryland so crab was always a big part of my life.…
  • WOW!!! What an inspiration you are to those of us that still have a long way to go. God Bless!!! :smile:
  • I'm not using it yet but will be soon. I have heard many good things about it, not so much for weight loss but for general health improvement. I have chronic sinus issues and nothing seems to help me anymore so I'm going to try the apple cider vinegar. I plan to do about 1 tbsp. in a glass of water each day. I sure hope it…
  • I still have a long way to go and I do look forward to all the good changes coming my way. But for right now I would say that the biggest change is my relationship with food and how I look at it. I no longer look at veggies as a punishment or as something I must eat. I also read every label now and if it's not healthy I…
  • Great post Sue... as always!! I honestly don't know what turned it around for me except to say that it was finding this site. I was still doing my same old "tomorrow" routine and I would like to say that I had some sort of epiphany but I didn't. I had been praying for so long for God to release me from the insanity that…
  • Congratulations on the 100 weight loss!! That is so amazing and something to be so proud of. I still have a lot of weight to lose yet but am so looking forward to the day that I can claim that amount of loss and more for myself. Stay strong and good luck on getting to your final goal weight. God Bless!!! :smile:
  • I definitely see the difference and you look GREAT!!! Keep up the good work... you're doing amazing!! God Bless!! :smile:
  • I say donate them to a charity such as Goodwill or Salvation Army, etc. I plan on keeping one piece of my largest size just as a reminder of where I was but everything else will go because I am NEVER going back to that weight again. God Bless!! :happy:
  • I don't think you are necessarily shallow but I do think you are missing out. I totally understand that the initial reaction may be that you are not attracted to what you are seeing in the photo but pics can be deceiving just like so many other things. Since finding the "right" person is already so hard to do I certainly…
  • Wow!!! Another great post and your story (except for being down 120 pounds) is so similar to mine. I am absolutely on that merry-go-round right along with you and I too will probably be here all of my life. I used to think that all I had to do was lose the weight and my world would be perfect and I would never have to…
  • Sweets. I know I can have them but I don't really want them and that is a miracle for me. I've also stopped drinking diet pepsi. Not intentionally, I just don't seem to want it anymore. Miracles never cease to happen. :smile:
  • I am so sorry that you are struggling but I agree with so many of the other posts in that you should start small and keep it simple. Just do what you can do for now and more will come. Be patient with yourself and refuse to give up. It sounds like you've been through a lot so just take it one day at a time and be kind to…
  • When I first read this post my heart was breaking and then I read the other posts about the food diary. I tend to be very naïve with the whole "troll" thing but even I have a hard time believing that any human being could consume that much in one day. If that's the case then I really pity you for imitating someone in such…
  • Everyone is different and some people don't carry any or much weight in their feet but some of us do. Sadly I have fat feet along with my fat body so I can definitely look forward to a smaller shoe size with the more weight I lose. I bet you can look forward to it too. God Bless!!! :smile:
  • Wow!!!... that is really low. Good luck on that one. :smile:
  • It was a guy I had met in a club. We talked about how we both loved the water and he invited me on his boat... a really nice cabin cruiser. We had a great day on the water and had joked all day about me falling over the side because it was our first date and I was really nervous. We were heading back in and I was going up…
  • I got mine at Walmart for about $20. It's digital and seems very accurate to the ounce. I think it goes up to 350 or maybe even 400. Thank you Jesus that my numbers are heading lower so I don't need to worry about that anymore. :smile:
  • I have never had spaghetti squash but have heard so many wonderful things about it. This recipe looks and sounds wonderful so I will definitely have to try this. Thanks for sharing. :smile:
  • I am a total dog lover and absolutely they are in the bed. I understand that not everyone has that same feeling so I respect that. The thing that makes me craziest is when someone says that their dog is too big to be in the bed. I'm 5'8" and over 300 lbs... so I guess I should be sleeping on the floor too, huh???
  • Originally from Baltimore, MD... soda, subs and lightening bugs. The funniest thing was when I lived in San Diego years ago and was working as a vet tech at an animal hospital. Another tech was leaving for the day and had a dead car battery so I had to call the main office to let them know we would be outside for a bit…
  • Wow!! That looks and sounds delish. I needed to find a way to eat more cauliflower. I don't dislike it but just don't eat it very much. Thanks for sharing such a great recipe with us. Yum!!! :-)
  • Great post and such an amazing story. You inspire us all to do better and never give up. I can't wait for the day when I have my own story to tell of reaching my goal. Thanks so much for sharing with us. God Bless!!! :smile:
