Amazing and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your story.

Almonds are great and I know they're good for you but they tick me off. I'm a quantity eater and it never looks like I'm getting much bang for my buck.

I'm 5'10 255, my husband is 6' 165. It's not that big of a deal for us, he doesn't seem to mind. I don't worry about it as much as I did when we first started dating. I used to be scared to sit on his lap, afraid I'd smoosh him. Not so much anymore. When I learned he wasn't as fragile I as I thought he was and when I…

We used to. We never fell asleep unless his arm was around me. Not so much now. I need at least 6" of space. Night sweats and hot flashes are no joke. I can't have anyone near me.

Being able to wear a shirt I bought last year but it was too tight around my middle to wear. Since I discovered I can wear it, I've worn it three days in a row! (I did wash it in between though.)

I'm barely out of my 30's, turned 40 in April and a Mama to a 7 year old daughter and step mom to two other girls, 15 and 20 but they don't live with me. All friends are welcome.

I'm the Secretary treasurer and a residential estimator at a plumbing and hvac company. Not very exciting but I love it. On the non paying side I'm a Girl Scout leader.

Sounds good. I hope my cucumbers grow well enough I can try this.

I live in Monroe, NC!

I like mine runny. If I get them too thick I just can't eat it. I normally put as my base 1/3 cup oats 1 TBSP chia seeds 1 cup unsweetened almond milk 1 tsp agave nectar then I put in various things, usually dark chocolate chips, banana, blueberries, strawberries and PB2 in different combinations. If you'd like it mushy…

this sounds really good, thanks for sharing. I think I'll try it for my lunch tomorrow.

sounds yummy! Thank you for sharing.

I log daily, I have been since I came back to MFP May 12th, and have my diary open for all to see if anyone would like to add me!

This is a great thread. I wish I had time to read through it all right now but I will for sure when I get home tonight. My why is deeper than I normally admit. I have the jokes on my bulletin board at work "I stay fat because it just would not be fair to all the thin people if I were this good looking, intelligent, funny…

Brandy Clark - Crazy Women

I have: zucchini yellow squash cucumber peppers - green and yellow, red cherry and jalapeno watermelon cantaloupe tomato - 3-4 kinds then I have my herb garden in another place with: curly & flat leaf parsley oregano thyme mint (in pots to not spread all over the place) rosemary lavender

Me too. I had a bit of a hard time coming up with an answer because I buy clothes I love now. I more love the fact I'll be able to shop in more brick and mortar stores so I can try things on and do less online shopping. It's hard in my little town to find clothes to fit me and not look like something Granny would wear.

I want a nice fitted button up shirt. Currently all of my shirts are pull over or the button ups I do have I wear unbuttoned so they won't gap over my belly and boobs. Also some pretty flowy skirts that show my awesome legs.

Sounds good!

I agree with this! Just because you're trying to lose weight don't think that means you can't eat good stuff. I think one of the main keys to success is not depriving yourself of the things you love. Cut back, sure. Cut out, no way. It has to be do-able long term for it to stick! that said. I'm trying to lose close to 100…

I weigh every day but only log my weight once a week. I'm pretty in tune with my body and weight fluctuations so I don't let the day today changes bother me.

Lunch - turkey and dressing, green beans, corn, a roll and banana pudding

It's actually pretty good. I've had it in the past and didn't mind it at all. Now I just have the real thing though because I have a sensitivity to sucralose.

My goal is to lose between 75 &100 pounds. I'd love more friends as well.

Hi and welcome! Good luck with your journey.

awesome job so far! You look fantastic. Good luck on the rest of your journey.

Looks yummy

I need to lose 100 pounds myself. I just logged back on here yesterday and plan to log on every day as well as keep my diary open. would love to make new friends and get motivation, male or female, doesn't matter!
