I have to buy Juno, my husky, the stuffing free toy's. She love's the squeeky toy's, but even the stuffing free one's she plays with a bit, then tears it up to find the squeeky in it. She has even managed to tear up every Kong toy I have bought her, along with 2 of my bedspreads. I am going to try the antlers they are…

Ray you are such a inspiration, and I love having you as a MFP friend! Your positive attitude carries on to all of your friends and gives us a brighter light to look forward to on the healthier side. Keep up the AWESOME job you are doing. If you ever get bored of where your riding at, ride on up here to Ohio and visit me!…

I am no expert, but I have been working a program here for 2 years. I eat lot's of fruit, on a daily basis, and have since I started here. It don't seem to be hurting me, but everyone looses differently. Goodluck!

Springfield here!

I started working out at Premier and my worst friend has always been my scale. It seems to call my name, and I find myself on it daily. Well this morning was my regular weigh in day, and after all the workouts I had been doing, I was really upset at 0.5 pounds off for the week. I eat healthy, and measure everything, and…

I had tried many different programs before I came here to MFP. Some of those I paid dearly for and none of it worked. Once I got in here, which my niece referred me here, things started going a lot better and I started loosing. I understand myself more now, what really kills me on my weight loss, and that I am not doing it…

I am 5'5 and 185. I started here at 267. I got down as low as 165, but after surgery last October, no exercise allowed the rest of the year, and the holidays I ended up putting back on almost 25 pounds. I just started back working out yesterday. I am headed to the gym shortly and I will have my daughter get a pic of me to…

Sounds great! I could use the motivation!!

Welcome on board! The more support you have, the better you will do. Never be afraid to ask for help here. Someone will have the answer! Add me if you would like!!

Very beautiful!! Awesome job!! Such a transformation in your face and neck also. Keep up the great work!

You have done a totally AWESOME job! Keep up the great work and keep the wonderful updated pic's posted!!

OH WOW! You look AWESOME! I think this is the inspiration I needed to get myself back motivated! Great job! BTW, love the shower curtain also! I have the same one! LOL!

You will make the little one proud to have you as a mommy! Great job and great pics!

Your my inspiration kiddo! We have both had a long, hard summer. I get rid of this hernia in a couple weeks, and I will be right by your side getting the last of this off! I'm so proud of you. You look amazing!

I would LOVE to go camping! Relax by the fire, read, fish and do a whole bunch of nothing!

What a great post, and a great way to look at what you are doing. You are doing great, and have a very stong attitude also. I like the scoreboard!

That would be me! I am 44, raised 8 kids, have 15 grandchildren, and never anytime for myself. Didn't I mention I am also a truckdriver? My BFF said I need to get a "new sexy hairdo" to compliment the 107 pounds I have lost. I told her at 44, I didn't know the word "sexy and hair-do" even belonged in the same sentence!…

We are struggling together my friend, but together, we will get there eventually! I am looking at about 27 more to loose, and your right, it is alot harder now. Keep up the great job kiddo!

You have done a great job!! I have been bouncing around in the same 5lb range now since Feb. Up a couple, then down a couple. It gets frustrating then. Keep up the GREAT work!!

At least I know I am not the only one that feels this way. After being obese, for over 28 years now, I still can't stand the way I look. I have lost almost 100lbs now, and I am no longer labeled "obese". When I crossed the line, I said to myself hmm, I'm no longer obese, now I'm just very overweight. Was that supposed to…

I started out with them hand in hand. For me, one was no good without the other.

Oh, and drink lots of water!! I usually get in 8-10 glasses a day.

I have found that sodium hurts me worse then calories! I try to keep my sodium under 1500 as much as possible. It is hard for me sometimes though when I work 14-15 hour days and have to pack all of my meals.

Your topless pics look AWESOME compared to mine, so I won't share them. ;-D Awesome job as usual dear! My first MFP friend!!

It's the little things Hott Momma. They all count!

It's never to late! The people here are AWESOME! You will get all of the support you need here. I have tried several programs, and paid for most of them. Never worked, for long anyways. I LOVE MFP! I have made so many friends here, and when I stumble or fall, they pick me up and dust me off. Back on track I go! Glad to see…

Awesome! I know I felt that way when I could finally get my big butt into a pair of jeans with a tag that said "skinny jeans"! Yes, I know. it means the size of the pants legs, but they didn't make em in my size. LOL

Welcome Angie! Glad to see that you stayed true to what you said, if it bacame a health issue, you would try to loose it! Thats what hit home for me. I have been large all of my life. I was the 10 year old girl in school with "boobs". Dumb boys! It was FAT!! I was obese by age 14, and have been ever since then, until…

I have the same problem, everywhere! I had health issues all year, and have only been aloud to walk for my exercise. If I could get rid of the loose skin, I would probably be down one or two more pants sizes. I am aloud to start a regular exercise program the first of the year. I hope it helps!

Hey! Yes ma'am, I'm a trucker also! Luckily though, I am home everyday now, but I have done most of my exercising on the road. I started here with a extremely large hernia and all I was aloud to do was walk and ride a bike. Everytime I delivered, while being unloaded I would walk, and walk and walk! When I went to a…
