I started at 263 and am now at 240 (after fluctuating a lot the last couple of years ack!!), so I've got about 100 to lose as well! Let's do this! WOO HOO!

can't wait to try this when i get home!

That nutritional yeast thing on popcorn is something I've never heard of, but definitely going to try!

Can't wait to try this, the fiance will be so happy to get to have pancakes again!

With some simple change of eating habits and whatnot you'll be set :) AND rockin' that bathing suit in Hawaii girl! We'll encourage each other to be healthy and awesome!

The sweating during a workout I can totally handle, it's the sweating while just trying on shoes that I can't stand! Bleh! Everyday simple activities make my brow moist, causing my hair to stick and ...it's embarrassing :/

Gotta check in a day early since I'll be out early tomorrow morning for a fun art class! Weigh In: 252! That's a loss from last week of 1.5 lbs Challenges: two days of 5 servings of fruits/veggies, and 4 days of an extra 15 minutes of exercise (added in some walking around the block with a co-worker!) Keep it up Ravenclaw,…

Wooowee! I didn't realize how hard it was to get 5 servings in of fruits/veggies every day! Trying my hardest, though! Every other day I'm grabbing a fruit bowl from the breakfast-mobile that pulls up in front of work (instead of a Java Monster and a breakfast burrito that I used to get before this whole lifestyle change).…

Salads from most restaurants....seriously? So many calories. I realize that's because they mix the dressings in, but still - I used to pick 1500 calorie salads thinking "oh hey, this is great for me!"

Phew! Finally back on track! Lost 1 pound since last week, checking in at 253.5! (That's 10 pounds since I started yaaay!) there was a whole damn pizza in my fridge all week long. But what did I do? Once slice a day. Thin crust, low cheese, low sauce, tons of veggies. I'd say that's 4 days of not binging, how about y'all?…

I'm a huge fan of using almond milk :)

Okie dokie, after a week of craziness and visiting my parents I didn't lose anything, so I'm still at the same. Sorry guys! I'm just happy I didn't gain 30 pounds with my mother's insane cooking! However I did get to do 3 days of strength training, and for 6 days got 4+ of colorful foods in! Yay for House Points!

I'll do all my weigh in stuff first thing tomorrow morning, I just got back from a looong car ride back home! <3 Visiting family is great, but man do I feel disconnected from the world!

Blue corn perhaps? :D

So far this week I've eaten green bell peppers, red tomatoes, yellow corn, white onions, oranges (love those cuties!), green avocados, green broccoli (on a all veggie pizza which included a bunch of the already mentioned!), and leafy greeny salad goodness. Today I can't wait to get my hands on some pink watermelon! Phew!…

Thanks everyone for all the replies. I haven't had to go to the emergency room or anything. But this has gone on far too long. I'll be seeing a doctor as soon as I can, once my new insurance plan kicks in. Regarding some questions: Nope, no pain in my shoulders, and the pain isn't localized to the right side or anything.…

Woo here we go, Ravenclaw! Last Week May 8th : 256 Today May 15th: 254.5 Lost: 1.5 House Points 5 new recipes (counts even if I didn't make them right?) Outdoor walks 5 Total of 10 house points :)

My weigh-in was my starting weight that I provided so there shouldn't have been any change <_< I'm confused!

hi! I'm actually 256, not 156 (i wish!!)

I know the cut-off was at midnight, but just in case there's a little fudge room (oops, I said a bad word...wiggle room maybe?) this is swell idea and I'd love to be a part of it! Huge HP fan here, have been since the books came out! :) Wish I saw this sooner :O Starting weight as of today 256, ultimate goal weight is 150…

If you're getting this from people just give me a call and I'll set 'em straight <3 I was proud of you this morning when you passed up the Mc d's!

we should meet up at least once a week to get a smoothie or something and just walk or... i dunno! I think it'll help us keep each other accountable and just have a little fun ya know? <3

I absolutely love love love the wii fit, especially all the aerobics. I even use my wii balance board as a stair stepper for evening workouts while watching TV :)

Breadsticks from Pat 'n' Oscars or Wings 'n' things (so easy to just go in, ask for a dozen, and skidaddle). Eeevil!

I'm a huge fan of tofu! It can be used in so many ways :D

Hey 'o sunny d'ians! Lived here half my life, love it!

Thanks for the encouragement and kind words everyone :) And for the friend adds :D This is going to be such an amazing journey.:flowerforyou:
