Food there is pricey. Be expecting to pay around $15 per person if you do a buffet (I'd do the buffets only if you want to be cheap and have a large variety of food). Like someone else said Bellagio is the best one!

I want some snow here in Texas!! We never get the good weather all you Northerners (anyone north of Texas) take all the good weather!

Bump!

See, I've tried to have that kind of thinking, the I will regret this later and undo my progress way of thinking. Sometimes, like tonight, that didn't work so much. I was ABOUT to give in and buy some frosted Halloween cookies they had at Walmart but then I thought, well, they're not individually wrapped and because of…

have you tried looking it up on youtube? I know how to braid (basic braid) but I don't know how to French Braid so I looked it up on Youtube and sort of learned. All I can tell you is separate your hair into three separate sections and take times crossing the hair pieces. It's hard for me to put into words. Just find a how…

I'm 5'7 as well, my goal for now is just to get to 140. If I feel I should lose more I'll try for losing another 5 lbs. I have a feeling I'll end up somewhere between 135 and 140.

Thanks for sharing! You really did motivate me more knowing there was someone else out there similar to me. I'm the kind of person who holds belly fat more than any other kind and used to eat an entire pizza and dessert! I have my days where I wish I could have pizza but I'm avoiding it for the time being considering I…

That's sooo awesome! I think it'd be sooo neat to get to model clothes! Congrats and I'm glad you had this opportunity!

There is a difference! Great job!! I too have lost about 15ish pounds and I THINK I see a difference and thought about posting a picture but I'm waiting for at least my 20lb loss that way I can say I'm half way there! Congrats on the lbs. Lost!

I've come to the conclusion you wear your number on your sleeve. A number, is a number, is a number. Sorry to be blunt but you can't hide fat. You can't hide skinny either. I've never kept my weight from my boyfriend, sure I never mentioned how much I weighed when we first started dating almost 7 years ago (at the time I…

Just so you know, you look 30! Congrats on your loss!

The reason for the loss might be that after a long time of not having that 'bad' food your body is thrown out of whack from the usual 'healthier' option. It sounds crazy but I THINK it makes your body work harder to get rid of it therefore it works more efficiently-- if that makes any sense! :ohwell: I don't really have…

Food no long owns me either. I used to crave sweets far too often! I got to the point where I was baking homemade cookies almost every week and then pig out on them throughout the day, it sucked. I use to not be able to control my sweet craving and my want to eat out because it was quicker (even though I did/do enjoy…

For now I chose 140. I looked up online things about bone frame size, height etc. and figured out I had a small bone frame therefore my weight should be around 135-140. I chose the higher end just so I felt like I was actually getting somewhere at the beginning. I'm going to see how I feel and look once I come close to 140…

Come to Texas, no need for winter clothing until oh, I don't know, January/February.

Thanks! I can't wait to put my goal pictures up! Happy Losing!

Got the pictures working!

Ugh! I use Picasa from Google...I decided to link it but it isn't working.

awesome!! It is very motivating and it really does open your eyes to what kinds of foods you fuel your body with on a daily basis!

Feel free to add me! I've been here a little over a month. It wouldn't hurt to have more motivation. These past few days I feel like I've become a little lazy. Today particularly wasn't the best day but tomorrow's a new day, hopefully I'll have more energy then.

I agree! That and a bikini!

Wow, thanks! That really made me think about what I'm doing now and what I should do in the future. I'm one of those people who might be a little too determined to lose weight NOW. I do need to relax a little and not be AS strict as I am now with eating. A 'cheat' meal every now and then isn't going to kill me. Again,…

899 calories burned sounds a bit much. I really don't know what to suggest to you. If it were me, I wouldn't worry about the 'carrying' bit. If anything it was the walking around that made you sweat more than the 'weight-lifting'. If you were power walking through the mall or where ever you were shopping I'd say it might…

Same here!

I'm 5,7'' and have never been a healthy weight. I want to get down to 140 and really the only reason I picked that number is because it sounds 'normal' to ME. How I carry my weight is in my belly. ALL in my belly. I see people who post here saying they wear size 12 or 14 and weigh 190 or 200 and I'm completely shocked! I…

Ugh, I guess I enjoy old lady candy!
