I said no to candy. ..donuts. ..biscuits. ..and more. ..I am proud of myself this weekend

I was considering this...let me know what you guys think

thanks for all the replies...you guys are awesome

:) I appreciate all your help and advice

your gym sounds awesome...I can only hope mine is as nice when I'm done...

sounds crazy...but I hadn't thought of Craig's list...I'll definitely look there. the hope is to expand the gym over the next few years...I would prefer to be outside, but get home after dark...lost most of my weight with walking and diet...I have a twenty acre farm in the mountains...and like to walk up and down the…

thanks, I will put in a gym floor for doing videos...and I like the idea of the ball...I will hopefully add weights...I just live so far out that I have to create my own gym. it's dark by the time I get home or I would walk outside. my ultimate goal is to lose 40 more pounds...I have lost over 100...but since then I moved…

Don't give up. Some days seem pretty easy, and then there is the total body circuit...which is spent in the plank positions...OMG, can anyone do that many pushups in the beginning. I am starting week 3, and I am getting stronger already...I still can't do as many as they do...but I can do some and that is a HUGE…

I got mine for Christmas also!! I have about 50-60 pounds to go..so we are in the same boat. I only have ONE friend that has a fitbit, so I would love to join up with you! https://www.fitbit.com/user/2ZTGZC feel free to add me.

Vitamin B12, also named cobalamin, is a member of the B complex of vitamins. All the B vitamins, including vitamin B12 are water soluble, and excess amounts of vitamin B12 that are not used by the body are usually excreted in the urine. As a result, overdosing on vitamin B12 is extremely rare. However, even in small doses,…

Thank you for posting...after losing a lot of weight...I definitely have my days where I know 100% I am an emotional eater...so funny how we can go through life and not realize certain things about ourselves....until finally one day it just hits you!! Like you just catch yourself in the middle of your 5th…

LOL...AMEN sista

I LOVE THIS!

Start weight - 167.2 (as of this morning) 11/12 - 167 (down .2) better than up :) 11/19 - 11/26 - 12/03 - 12/10 - 12/17 - 12/24 -

Love this one I will hit the gym at least 3 times a week...for an hour take dog for more walks.... run and play with my 7 year old.... I am down with the more sex plan....:) I will def be working on that one I like your never do nothing plan...I will try that too. I bet you burn a ton of calories with those short spurts of…

I feel your pain I crave sugar and salt!!! I try to avoid it, but I will allow a little....never seem to lose any weight during this week. I also retain water. I will try to up my water intake..warm tea sounds great...and will definitely try the fish idea... thanks B

My issue is late at night. I am a night owl... I will do great all day, then around like 9pm I start craving....somethig. Salt...sugar....anything that I know I am not supposed to have. One thing that I try to do, is not buy things that I like. My son likes poptarts,so I get blueberry...he loves them, I hate them...so no…

I plan on losing 10 pounds by doing the following: 1. being positive and believing in myself!! 2. Maintaining a healthy diet, I try to eat between 1200-1500 calories per day 3. Exercise DAILY. My 7 year old son and I hit the gym every evening and rotate between the treadmill and the elliptical. My goal is 30 minutes of…

I am terrible at the water thing right now. I like the challenge...I will get me a water bottle today! I know it will help, I usually do 2-3 cups a day, awful, right.. great idea!

I started at 297....today I am 167.2....I feel your struggle 100%. I have weeks where I am awesome, and weeks where I suck at this..lol...but I maintain a pretty strict daily calorie goal, and if I go over with the food.....I get to spend more time at the gym :0 somedays the food is worth it...other days, I think, "was…

Let's do it! I am trying to lose 20 by March.....the sooner the better :) B

I am new(ish) to Knoxville...and would love to have a walking group...buddy. I also have a son (7) who would have to come with me...we don't really know anyone else here. Let me know if you are still in the market for walkers :) Brandi

I think your goal is AWESOME. I truly believe that we put so much pressure on ourselves to succeed over night that we create insane goals that we can not truly reach...then we feel like failures and give up! I set super small goals for myself...I started very close to where you did....297 was my heaviest...my first goal…

I also tend to eat what I want in much smaller portions. I do make healthy choices 95% of the time, but if I go out...or if I am on vacation, or at a movie...I tend to get whatever I want and share it, or box up half....whatever it takes not to ruin my entire weeks efforts. I do protein shakes for breakfast (still have my…

I originally started at nearly 300 pounds (297 to be exact) For this...my SW (11/26/11) 189 lbs Week 2 (12/03/11) xxx lbs Week 3 (12/10/11) xxx lbs Week 4 (12/17/11) xxx lbs Week 5 (12/24/11) xxx lbs Week 6 (12/31/11) xxx lbs Week 7 (1/7/12) xxx lbs Week 8 (1/14/12) xxx lbs Week 9 (1/21/12) xxx lbs Week 10 (1/28/12) xxx…

I am ready NOW...all the smells of food around the holidays are already starting to make me mad (because it makes me wanna eat!!...lol) People in my family and even my friends don't understand...and they continually ask me if I want food, or cookies...or say silly things like a little bit wont kill you...well, maybe not…
