Amazing photos, keep on posting!

Howdy! I would love to have a buddy like you support me during this journey! You sound just as crazy as me- I'm a big workout buff too and sometimes have issues with over eating in the carb department. Please feel free to add me, I think we will make one dynamic duo! Jam

Hello Vera! I am a HUGE fan of ice cream sandwiches. I think I like them a bit too much... Anyway, please feel free to add me! I'd love to help encourage you! Jam

Howdy! Feel free to add me! I would love to help you out on your weight loss journey. I'm looking to lose a little bit more (if possible) by trying out new exercises and workout routines. I look forward to sharing workout tips and motivating you! Jam

That's what my boyfriend (now fiance!) is doing for me!

All are gross, but I go with B!

What a transformation! Congrats to you on such an accomplishment. Please let us know how he reacts! J

Howdy! I too haven't had access to a body fat calculator. Hoping to get to one tomorrow if I can! Since joining MFP I have lost almost 5 pounds, which is a nice perk for me. I am hoping to see a low 23 or a high 22 when I get to that calculator! Congrats to both of you for a stellar week. Does it seem to be getting…

Laxatives- tons of them. I drank laxative teas, ate chocolate laxatives for "dessert" and even took handfuls of herbal laxatives multiple times a day. My stomach was not happy with me at all. I wonder if abusing my body this way has influenced my digestive system at all. Boy did we do stupid things to our bodies- ugh. J

Howdy! Feel free to send me a request. I love strenuous workouts and would be happy to kick your behind via MFP! Jam

Agreed- this is a fantastic tool!

From Arizona but currently live in Oregon! Its a bit greener!

We all go through this- you aren't the only one. Sometimes what the scale says can absolutely ruin my day. Its unnecessary and ridiculous to allow a number to influence our day. You have to take a deep breath and be positive. As you said, tomorrow will be better. Don't let the scale discourage you, it is not worth it!…

Absolutely please add me! I can't wait to kick your behind and be straight forward with you :) Jam

Hiya! Feel free to add me. I love supporting and motivating others! Welcome to MFP! Jam

I love this! I need to give this one a try. Thanks!

Stir frying chard is fantastic! I add it with spaghetti and tomato sauce. You can add some basil, oregano and a tiny bit of pepper and it tastes amazing. I also like adding lemon juice to it- that makes it zesty! Chard with any mixture of fruit makes the taste less bitter/gross. Although I am pretty crazy- I just throw it…

First year elementary PE teacher here! I would love any tips and advice- us teachers need to stick together! Jam

Yes! Any kind of dog that is happy! Fluffy dogs are preferable

Yes! With a tiny touch of Jessica Biel/Jamie Eason. Its a weird combination, but I think it works for me! Jam

I've watched many of these episodes (although most on Youtube have been pulled. The BBC website has some great clips from the show.) I wonder how people on MFP feel about the techniques they use to help the supersize/superskinny individuals get back onto the healthy track. One episode was particularly tough for the…

Howdy howdy! Any body fat percentage believers still around? How is everyone doing out there? I started with a BF% of 23.8% Last week I got it down to 23.5% This week I have it at 23.2% Yes, its progress, but is moving sooo slowly. I will say however that this week I lost another pound. Since I started at the beginning of…

Congrats! That is fantastic! Perhaps a half marathon is in your future...? :)
-
Baahahahaha! I'm so glad someone else caught this!
-
Thank you! :) Sometimes its difficult for us ladies to make this realization. This has been an eye opener!
-
Well personally I don't think many women have realized that this is what some men prefer! Many of us gals are conditioned to thinking that we need to physically look a certain way. I think hearing all these comments are good for us in realizing that: 1. Its not always about looks! 2. Guys like us, regardless of our body…

I know! I keep hitting the refresh button!
-
A big thanks to the original poster for this- its refreshing to hear that guys like girls who do not starve themselves or lose weight in an unhealthy way. Sometimes us normal gals need this reassurance! Jam

No worries about what you saw today. Are you using the same tool to measure you on a weekly basis? Also, our body fat percentage fluctuates so much throughout the day. We can have less BF if we are dehydrated or haven't eaten recently. If you measure yourself right after a meal and haven't worked out for 48 hours, its…
