Looking good! Keep it up!!!

You have to eat breakfast. It is true what they say. It is the most important meal of the day. You wouldn't go to work without any gas in your car. When you skip breakfast, you start your day off by putting your body in starvation mode. That is why most dr.s will tell you not to go more than 4 hours without eating…

Remarkable transformation! I keep scrolling up and down to make sure it was the same person. Love the hair cut too. Keep it up! You look great!

WElcome to the site both Rachels. Good luck with your weight loss. Feel free to friend me!

After losing 100+ lbs, you so need to go back to Kings Island and ride that roller coaster. What a NSV!

Welcome to MFP! That dreaded baby weight is tough. BUt, it CAN be done-especially by logging in here everyday and getting the wonderful support through all the people here. Add me if you want. I have quite a lot more weight to lose. BUt, one can never have too many friends.:smile:

I can truly appreciate the airplane seat scenario. It reminded me of going to Dollywood with my kids a couple of years ago. I was being strapped into a roller coaster that went upside down that had the bar that comes down from behind your head. Your size depends on how far it can come down. I was convinced mine wasn't…

I got 10 glasses of water down vs my normal 8.

I never would have guessed that! Wow! You look awesome!

What a transformation! THat is awesome! You look great!

WElcome! Good luck to you! We are all here for support. :smile:

Right back at ya! HOpe you enjoy this site. It works for me!

Just fixed them for the first time. I couldn't help but think I was cheating. I couldn't believe it was just eggs and banana.Great recipe! Thanks!

The song that made the difference for me. I stumbled across this as I was looking at someone's before and after pics. They had them on a slideshow with this song playing in the background. I thought it summed up how I felt pretty well. Then I did some research and found out that the writer of the song (Natalie Grant) wrote…

Do you eat the Fat free kind? I have gotten two cans of the Pringles FF light sour cream and onion chips and they are really good. Of course, nutritionally, I know they are not worth anything. I do enjoy them though.

Cheat days? No one told me I could have cheat days!!!! Bummer! lol

Wow! That is awesome! What an incredible difference. Way to go girl!

Yes and I think it is a spendid idea. I had Weight Loss surgery and one of the requirements was for me to get a Psch eval. I realized through that I needed to continue for lots of reasons. The lady who did my evaluation is an accomplished author and speaker in the field of obesity. You can even go online and read the first…

Put the life savers down. Each one of those precious little pieces is going to be turned into fat. You know, your body can't burn calories as long as you keep feeding it sugar.

Getting the appropriate amount of protein is essential to any Weight loss surgery patient. When your diet is restricted to 800 calories a day, it is hard to get 60g a protein in by eating your protein. If I don't get at least 60g of protein a day, my hair will start to fall out. All protein powders are not created equal…

Welcome Cory! You have found the right place for encouragement! Keep up the good work! Add me if you want. One can never have too many friends!

Been there and done that! I hit my first plateau right around the july 4th holiday. But, my friends on here helped me not go off the deep end and get back on the horse and tackle that mountain. MFP ROCKS!! Thanks for all your support!

You can see the pics? That is weird because I can't after posting. I thought I did it wrong.

I weigh myself first thing every morning.

I am going to the Dr. on the 26th. I set a goal for myself awhile ago to lose at least 5 more pounds by then. That is only 2.5 lbs a week. We can do that! Of course, I am going out of town TWICE before then. I am going to have to be very diligent. Knowing you are counting on me just might help! What do you think>?

Thank you! I have been reading about nsv's and svs but had no idea what they stood for. Did I mention I am still new at this? :)

What does NSV stand for?

WElcome WElcome! Lots of good stuff to be found here.

ok. here is a dumb question(forgive me) What does NSV or SV stand for? Did I mention I am new to this?

WElcome to MFP! My Dr. suggested this site and for the longest time, I didn't even realize you could chat and exc hange messages, recipes, etc. It's great! Feel free to add me. I am in this for the long haul. I have 76 lbs to go!
