That is so awesome, what an amazing difference! I hope to have some pics like that myself in a year. WTG!

I would rather have a bag of chips and a bowl of dip than any meal out there. Can't have it!! I used to really have an ice cream addiction but I can make do with Skinny Cows and the Snickers mini bars, and I'm okay. Way better than the big bowl I used to have!

Thanks so much, I didn't even think Netflix would have something like that! Awesome!!

That's awesome!! Hubby brought home a piece of chocolate cake for me yesterday (he works at a bakery/restaurant) He says, I know you've been doing so well so I brought this for you. I tasted one little bite and thought, its not THAT good, that I want to use all those calories on it! I ate my 90 cal mini Snicker's ice cream…

I used to hardly drink any water. When I started here a little over a month ago, I had to make myself drink water. Now I crave it and am thirsty more. I do drink a couple of bottles of green tea a day too though.

Hi there! I totally know what you're going through and have a long way to go too, but we can do this! Welcome! I sent a friend's request :)

Sounds delicious!! Thanks!!

I say fit it into your day and have a portion.

We just had shrimp boil for dinner tonight. Boil small whole red potatoes in a big pot of water, with Louisiana Shrimp and Crab boil. When the potatoes are done, take them out and toss in corn on the cob. When that is about done, put in your shrimp, still in the shell. These only take just a few minutes to boil, if you…

That's one thing I've been wondering about too. My friend lost over 100 pounds, and has a lot of excess skin on her arms, but she did it through the lap band, so I believe she lost faster, if that makes a difference.

Wow, thanks! I'm going to have to try this one!

That is awesome! Congrats to you on all of your hard work. A true inspiration!!

I used to have ice cream EVERY night before I went to bed, so I know what you mean! I've found that I can't just deny myself things because that ends up biting me in the butt in the long run. I try to work it into my day. I have a sweet treat every night, its just not a big bowl of ice cream! Have you tried the Skinny Cow…

Have you tried the Skinny Cow peanut butter and chocolate crisps? They're really good for 110 calories. They also have the 90 cal Fiber 1 brownies, but I haven't had those yet so, I can't give my opinion on those. The Hunt's sugar-free chocolate pudding is good for 80 calories. Can you tell I like chocolate? LOL Dust…

I definitely wouldn't want that person in my life, who needs that? I'm sorry, I think that's awful!

I'd really like to try those noodles I hear everyone talking about. I don't think I've seen them in the store. Can you find them in grocery stores, or just online? We don't have a Whole Foods or Trader Joe's here, just HEB and Walmart!

I recently started using I Can't Believe It's Not Butter lite, and I was really surprised at how good it tastes. 45 calories in a TBS and 5 grams of fat.

Where are these usually located in the grocery store? I haven't seen them yet, not that I've been searching hard, but had it in my mind that I would pick them up if I saw them.

Oh, that's okay, just thought you might have it handy! I can always plug it into the recipe tool on here, and measure things out. That's what I usually have to do the first time! Of all the things I wish I had from WW it would be those ladles they have, that have measurements. I think it would be way easier to ladle out…

That sounds really good! How many servings is in it?

I'm always tempted to weigh daily, but I resist, since I don't think it shows the true picture, and I don't want to get down on myself. I just weigh once a week.

Congrats!! You look great!!

I plan for it too. I've gotten into the habit of having something sweet most every night, which is probably a big reason I'm at the weight that I am. Now I've just made better choices. Skinny Cows are great, and I enjoy the sugar-free Hunt's pudding cups.

What a sweet post! Back atcha!

Mine is public. I think it makes me think harder about what I'm about to eat, knowing that its out there for everyone to see. Plus, I like to read others diary's, hoping to get some new ideas, and perhaps someone can get some from mine.

HI there, welcome! I'm fairly new but I have to have some chocolate too. I eat the sugar-free chocolate puddings, by Hunts for 80 calories, and Skinny Cow has some new candy's out, they have a peanut butter and chocolate bar that is 110 calories, that is delicious. Hope that helps!

You look great! Awesome job!!

I try to plan out my day as much as possible, and I definitely add in that late night snack. I was having a problem with waking up in the middle of the night and finding myself with a spoon in the peanut butter jar though. No idea why! I bought a theater box of Junior Mint's and now when I wake up in the middle of the…

I like to cut the chicken into cubes, and coat with Franks Hot Sauce, put it on skewers and grill. Yum! Almost as good as hot wings!

I tried to go horseback riding with my daughter, and nieces and nephews last week. I got my foot in the stirrup but there was no way I could pull myself up onto the horse, and was way too embarrassed to let the people try to push me from behind. I won't go to Six Flags with my daughter because I'm afraid I won't fit on the…
