Now I want that hot dog pizza! And I've tried a donut bacon cheeseburger. Worth trying once, but only once :P

yum!

I just reached my license weight this week :)

Yay for having a goal to fit into :) Boo for him being insensitive! If my husband were to say something like that, I'd tell him that I do enough criticizing of myself for both of us, his job is to support my efforts! Keep going!

If I buy chips, the bag is gone in 12 seconds. Hence why I don't buy chips. But sometimes I do have a salty/crunchy craving. Pickles are calorie free and might fit the bill :)

I started out taking 1 a day because I wanted to do a montage of them...then I got lazy :P Now it's about 1-2 times a month. When I hit a nice round number or just because.

Remember that weight loss is 90% what you put in your mouth, 10% what you do in the gym-even during recovery, you can handle this :) I hope all goes well for you!

lol. Good thing it's a belt, and not my husband ;)

Today's NSV picture :)

Therapy might be helpful for you. I struggle with depression and emotional eating but will admit that I didn't find therapy especially helpful (at least not at the prices I had to pay, lol) 3 things I've found useful so far: *tell someone I'm struggling-my husband or a friend. Them knowing that my mood is down and I might…

I briefly dated a beanpole once and he brought up my weight pretty early in the relationship...it hurt so bad! And I wanted to change myself for him. Funny thing is, when it ended, he dated a couple of different girls that I ended up getting to be close friends with. They are both large too. He goes for large women and…

You know, I've never heard of a duathlon, but that sounds like fun-a lot less hassle cutting out the swimming! I haven't been training at all the last couple weeks...I've been in a bit of a slump :( I just want spring! You won't be able to stop me training once the weather gets nice! I'm just glad this week is forecasted…

I had a nightmare about this upcoming sprint triathlon last night! The electronic tracker they give you that usually goes around your ankle had been replaced with a large, awkward, bottle-like thing you had to carry. It was nearly impossible to swim at all or bike while holding it! To add to it all, there were multiple…

mmmmmm!

I have never weighed over 300 pounds, I started losing at my highest: 291. So I can't say I've been in your shoes. Sometimes I see posts of people that talk about how they have been so "fat" nearing 200 and I can't help but think they have no idea. So now I'm in their place, I've never weighed as much as you and can't…

Great job :) Looks like with my 39 lbs loss so far, I'm down from "morbidly obese" to just "severely obese". Another 27 lbs and I'll be down to obese with you :) Going off of this page at least: http://www.obesitysurgerydallas.com/bmi.html

It has been 6.5 months and I'm 1/3 way to goal so I'm guessing another year.

This is seriously what I thought when I read this!

mmmm!

My new obsession: Raw Fruit and Nut Bars! 12 dried dates (rehydrate in water for a half hour maybe) 8 dried apricots or 1/2 C dried cherries 1/4 cup of whatever nuts you like (I did 1/2 hazelnut, 1/2 almond) lemon peel vanilla extract cocoa powder if you need a chocolate fix Blend in a food processor and shape into bars or…

We are addicted to spaghetti squash lasagna-ground meat, spaghetti sauce, ricotta, and mozzarella-so good!

I've started making my own :) Super easy! Blogged about it here: http://rekamirecreations.blogspot.com/2014/01/tasty-tuesdayhomemade-yogurt-success.html

A big NOPE here!

That's awesome progress :)

Love it! I really like visuals so I might need to do something like this :) ETA: I think I might do a modified version-once my string gets so long (a foot or something) then I can get myself a prize (workout gear? massage?)

We're not looking at IVF, but I'm hoping that continued weight loss will help us with fertility. Good luck :)

4.48 gallons!

Thanks for your input about doing what you need to do as an individual. I almost listed that in my first post-listen to your own body! I have a friend that is a raw vegan...while some of her recipes look like fun, I think I would die on that kind of diet. I have a friend that has lost 3 lbs a week vs my 1.5 lbs a week, and…

Thanks for those tips :) I've been hearing that-to practice transitions. I just finally got myself out of the house and gym yesterday to do some outside jogging in the freezing weather. Obviously aside from the cold, it felt great :) Now to get out the bike and do both! I can't stand the idea of treadmills...I feel like a…
