You look beautiful and OH so happy! Congratulations!! Inspiring.

I'm right there with ya in the 'losing large' boat. Feel free to add me. I've been here for about five weeks and it's working and I love it!!

I've had it with salt and pepper and that was good. Peaches are wonderful in it.

It looks like you are taking a step in the right direction and that's what counts. Just keep moving in that direction and eventually you'll get where you're going. A few months ago I was winded walking to the mailbox--yesterday I did a zumba class! It CAN be done! You CAN do it!!!

I ate there last week and had salmon with broccoli florets. Very tasty and not nearly as bad as the pasta they serve. Also, here in WA they have the calorie count in a separate menu you can request. I keep mine in my purse. <<sigh>> LOVE that place.

Has something recently happened that sent you running to food? That has happened to me more times than I can count. I know that mindless eating---eating without serious conscious thought on my part--contributed to my weight issues. Are you an emotional eater?

That is WONDERFUL!! What a victory. I hope to be there with you one day. As it is, I've but my GERD Rx's in half and am feeling a lot better. Wooooo Hoooooo!

It would serve 8 easily! Do you know how to post pictures on here?

BEEEE OOOO TEEEEE FULL! Whatever you're doing is working!

Welcome! This is an amazing place and chock full of supportive people. I too have lots of weight to shed and in the almost-month that I've been here the support has been amazing.

LOVE the pictures!!! You looks incredible and I know it inspires me to keep going! Yay you!!!

Your face looks wonderful!!!! Excellent job!!!!

Ay Eliza! Sabes que te quiero muchisimo chama!! I'm so glad you're here. This is an amazing place.

You're oh so right. Losing weight is never easy. I'm not sure that anything worthwhile doesn't involve a lot of sweat and hard work and self control. 22 pounds is GREAT! Feeling better in your body and getting healthy is wonderful. I'm still camera shy but I'm not going to be forever! Keep up the good work! :smile:

I am SUCH a ranch dressing addict! I've stopped buying it since I began MFP here.....and i oh so miss it. I like your idea and I'm going to give it a try. Thanks so much for posting that. Greek yogurt---plain?

You are an inspiration!!! Wowza!!

Inspiring! I bet you felt so light and free! Congrats!

Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow!!! You look AMAZING!!

So how does one become 'friends' on here? I'm not seeing it. And yes, I'm blonde :blushing:

oops, did I post this in the wrong thread?

Hi, my name is Pamela. Well, usually it's Mom. Or Moooooooooooooom!!! There's generally more syllables, but you get the idea. I have four children and I'm a tad bit fluffy. Ok, I'm the size of an Orca whale. I started MFP a bit over a week ago and I'm loving the way it helps me track my intake and exercise and everything…

You look FANTASTIC!!! Go You!! Thanks for posting the pics. It's great motivation for those of us struggling to shed poundages. :)
