this morning I noticed how much closer I can get to my hubby w/o the belly between us.:blushing:

Non Scale Victory, I think....

Congrats! You have earned those pants :drinker:

I can't wait till mine says that!:smile:

Wonderful progress pics - WTG! We are in about the same place in this journey, 1/4 of the way to the ultimate goal. How long has it taken for you to lose the 25? It's been since July 11th for me, the last month I have made very little progress, but committed to the journey. :happy:

Congrats to you and I agree whole=heartedly, MFP is the best site ever!!!:happy:

sugar free swiss miss is great for me. I am enjoying a cup right now.

so true - it's my favorite website now! :smile:

I have lost 27lbs since July 11th and still wearing thr same clothes... not for much longer though they are really saggy and baggy. Keep looking forward and before you know it you'll be needing new pants. Susan

Welcome Stephanie - It's a joy to meet new MFP friends with common goals. If you need support, add me as a friend:smile: Susan

Thank you for sharing your success with us, you should be so proud of yourself. you look younger, stronger and so much healthier. Congrats :smile:

Wise words, thank you for sharing with us. I relate, because I feel like I have been spinning my wheels (wasted, my words) the last month. No change on the scale, unless I count the ups and downs!! Thank you for reminding me that its a life long journey towards health, not a poroject I am in a race to finish.. Susan:happy:

You look wonderful (in both pics), the changes are dramatic. If I can follow the instructions I'll post my face photos too. Thanks for sharing!:happy:

Great Job! 22 lbs is a wonderful chunk (no pun intended) of your overall goal. You should feel really good about you!!! PS - I also noticed today how great it is to have no muffin top, you gotta celebrate the victories along the way. God Bless :smile: Susan

Welcome :smile: So glad to ahve you on board. The MFP community is very supportive and you'll get pleny of ideas and suggestions. The best advice I can share is to log in everyday, no matter what. Even if you don't eat as planed, or don't have time to excercise, etc, etc ALWAYS track your food and excercise. This is how…

I share the title with you! You are very right about the correlation between log in and success. Once I start telling myself I'll log it later, I stat making bad food choices. I am the most successful when I plan my meals and log them before I actually eat them. That I way I am making choices. The last week, I have been…

You have the same beautiful smile in both pictures! You should be so proud of your accomplishment, it just shows the rest of us there is light at the end of the tunnel. Bless you <><

I was there last month and had the crabcake with grilled grean beans and zuchinni. I was amazing and under 600 calories for my entire meal. They also have a great skinny mojito. Enjoy:smile:

My thoughts exactly!

Change begins with choice, and you have made the right choice. You deserve to live a healthy life and the good news about hitting rock b ottom is there is no where to go but up. You can and will do this. Make a committment to log in to MFP everyday and log all your food, even if you indulge more than you should. Track…

I feel the same way you do and look forward to the answers i know our MFP friends will share. Have a great day :smile:

Congrats on making your goals! I agree that this site (and the people on it) are amazing. It is so motivational to log on and hear of other peoples success and day to day struggles. Thanks for sharing :smile:

We all have highs and lows, this too shall pass. You have accomplished something great so fat 15 POUNDS! Yeah :smile: Tomorrow is a new day, committ yourself to one positive thing you will do for yourself for the next week. You'll be great! Wagons are made to get on and off occasionally - Take Care
