It's really happening!!
On January 1st of this year everyone was making new resolutions, but I had given up completely. I went through my closet and threw out all my skinny clothes. I was done. My dad got diagnosed with lung cancer and my brother had a heart attack (at 33!!!!!) In the same week and I just snapped. I was sick and tired of being…

Back on the wagon :/
Hey all! Used to be really active on here (and in my lifestyle, lol) My weight has fluctuated SO MUCh this past year. I lost 60 pounds in 2011, moved back to America and then would gain a bunch, realise it, lose it, Gain more, lose more on and on and on. I've now officially gained about 40 pounds back from my 60 and I'm…

Help with unfortunate situation?
I'm going to try to make this as double sided as possible so I don't sway opinions. I've been put in a difficult situation and I'd really like some help getting to the right thing to do. Two girls share a room in London. Girl one has a male friend that occasionally sleeps over (every other weekend ish). Girl 2 hates this…

2011 was good to me! 54 lbs [pics]
I started out 2011 like every other year. Promising to change. I moved to England in August and it really jump started my weightloss! I'm down 54 pounds and am now no longer obese, and I'm below 200 pounds for the first time in my life! I know these aren't the best photos and now my nerd is showing but it's what I've got.…

HORRAY! *jumpy clap*
199.6!!! Seriously, I have never been below 200! I remember when I was 13, my mom signed me up for Weight Watchers and I was 209. I remember it vividly because I was mortified to be so heavy. I'm so excited for next summer when I visit home to show everyone what I've accomplished :) I AM SO HAPPY!! I might cry. We need…

i really need to start
Exercising. *dramatic sigh* I have managed to lose 50 pounds with virtually no exercise. It's been awesome. I'm SO lazy. But now I'm flabby, it's gross. Just discovered there is a pool right down the road from me and it's only about £10 a month to use! i actually like swimming. Would swimming be enough to tone me up, or…

Can't stop smiling! Great day!
Woke up this morning and took a shower. Wrapped the towel around myself and it went all the way round!! A normal sized towel! Never since I can remember have I ever been able to do that. Hopped on the scale( with wet hair mind you) and not only did the number mark 50 pounds lost, but I am now no longer obese. I weigh less…

Vanity Post LADIES help me?
Hiya!! I feel like since losing weight, my face has gotten narrower so now my forehead looks HUGE. I'm contemplating Fringe/bangs. Look at my pics and tell me what you think? I'll love you forever. I know it's just hair and it'll grow back if I hate it, but I've never had fringe before!

Progress pics :)
I had a major life change in August. I went on a 2 week holiday to London with my friend only we decided we didn't want to leave at the end of those 2 weeks. So here I am in London, 4 months later and 45-50 lbs lighter. I went to the doctor about a week before we left and I weighed in at 251. I am 5"9' and was 275 at my…

My "sad" NSV
I have an addiction to underwear. Seriously, I have SO much. I love it and I buy the really good expensive stuff. It's my love. All of my beautiful undies are too big now. They gap in the booty, it's not sexy. I moved to London, so now I have no money to buy new, nice panties. Gonna have to buy cheap, ugly pants at…

old favourites- calorie shock!
What is one thing you used to LOVE that, when you started counting calories, made your jaw drop? I found out that my favorite drink at Starbucks is 660 calories. I had one every day for 2 years. I havent touched one since and NEVER will again.

Bathtub fun! nsv
I took a bath today for the first time since I started losing weight. It took me a minute to realise why I kept floating around. I wasn't crammed in! I could fit both hands on either side of me with room! It's the first time in my adult life, I actually fit in the bath. It was all floaty and awesome. Yay smaller *kitten*!

My first NSV!
My boss, who wouldn't notice an elephant if it ran him over, looked at me today and said, "Maggie darling, you're losing weight!" in his lovely Scottish accent. I was shocked. I just replied I was working on it but he was very adamant on giving me this compliment, lol. He's the first person to say anything apart from my…

An American in London
Hello! I'm new to the forums. I've been counting calories since August 1st and have managed to shed 15 pounds. I'm originally from the Minneapolis area but I moved to London, England a few months ago. I want to see my collar bones again!!

? about consumed vs net
When you log your exercise, it negates calories. Do you go ahead and eat those extra calories or do you go by what you've consumed regardless of calories burned. I feel like I should just stop logging excersise because it makes me think I have an excuse to eat more and I end up consuming more than I think I should even…
