Before – pics and numbers

You will feel so much better, and get so much energy back from this 🙂 Well done Mikie, you should be really proud.

Yay for the 6 pounds gone!!! And good luck on your goals…

well done 🙂 you’re doing well! xx

Yay you! You are gonna do great, I can tell! Make yourself a weight loss ticker! lol =o) Also, you might enjoy the website I belong to: http://www.myfitnesspal.com =o)

You have the right attitude to succeed, and I have no doubt that one year from this time you are going to be quite pleased with your results. I’ll be praying for you to find new strength along the way, and to enjoy yourself in the journey. Good for you!

There are also charities where they will send a pound of food to impoverished places for every pound you lose — if you have the time, might want to look into that! I think it’s done in conjunction with The Biggest Loser.

congrats on this new milestone in life for you.. you will feel so much better in the long run. So glad you are doing this.. again, I wish you all the success in the world sweet thing

Congrats!!! Six pounds is awesome!!! I’m so happy for you! You should be proud!! <3 Annie-Rae

Pretty courageous to put that out there. Go you. Doing something like this for yourself is going to benefit your whole family.

awesome I can’t wait to see the transfomation!

You may want to check out the diary “Let’s Get Healthy”. They’re doing a Biggest Loser type challenge. I think I’m going to do it!

I just remembered as well, there’s a website called myplate or what’sonmyplate or something. You put in what you ate today and what exercise you’ve done. It works out how many calories you’ve eaten and how many you’ve lost and it’ adjusts your recommended calorie intake as well.

RYN: Aye, that’s the chap, lol!

I’m hoping to get my butt started working out regularly again now that we’re all eating better. Maybe you & I both can get our pics and numbers looking better by this time next year! I’m so proud of you for taking charge and doing this for yourself!!

Congrats on losing 6 pounds!!

WOOHOO!! You go, girl!! ~

you’re going to do great! good luck, keep us updated!

🙂

RYN: The dress is from janie and jack the Blue Skies line. I got a great deal on mine, I paid $20 shipped!

I am so, so proud of you Mikie!! I know you can do this and love that you have a place to go and people to help you. If there are times you backslide don’t let that make you give up. Just forgive yourself and keep going…you can do this!! I can’t wait to see you at your goal weight. Also, I hope you get that new computer. Will it be a desktop or a laptop?

Great job you inspired me to go get a curves guest pass and check it out And thanks for your kind words on my last entry it really meant a lot

i’m so happy for you mikie! i can’t wait to watch your progress. 🙂 ryn: i actually had to google how to hard boil them! i’ve never done it before. anyway, i put eggs in the bottom of the pan (it said don’t stack them, do just one layer on the bottom) and then filled the pan with cold water–just enough to so there is an inch of water above the eggs. then i put them on the stovetop with the burner on high, and once the water started a full boil i set the timer for 12 minutes. when 12 minutes was up, i took them out of the pan and cooled them in a big bowl of really cold water, until they were cool to the touch. i have no idea if they turned out right, but i guess we’ll see! 🙂

You CAN do it!!!!

So how are you doing staying under 1200 calories? I’m dying! I end up between 13-1400 almost every day.

I’m aiming for 1400 right now. With all the exercise I’ve been doing I feel like that’s a more realistic number. Good luck!

GO WOMAN! Thanks for the note! you can do this! you will be amazed how much better you will feel. At first it is about losing weight, but it quickly becomes so much more than that!

You are doing so great! You def. have the right attitude about it and thats what it takes! =)

You go girl! I’ve been meaning to sign up to the gym for ages, so maybe you’ll inspire me! 😀

http://www.portraitinnovations.com/ thats where we take De. They have a $9.95 special all the time. We just tend to get more than that because we can’t make up our minds!

RYN: Yeah, that is all well and good. But it doesn’t make it any easier. It is quite hurtful and it’s hard to just shrug my shoulders and get over it. 🙁

Awesome job! I to started losing weight in January.. today is my 3 month mark and I’ve lost 43 pounds already! I’m doing low carb and also keeping my calories in the 12-1500 mark but more mostly lower scale. Been walking everyday.. 2-3 miles. What is your facebook page? My e-mail is banner0101@yahoo.com if ya wanna add me there! Oh and I also use sparkpeople.com to keep track of what I eat.

RYN ~ thank you for making me LOL!

RYN: Thanks 🙂 Tom is encouraging me to take a supplement for calcium too. I have been drinking more milk its just hard because milk upsets my stomach. I’m going to buy more yogurt though so I’ll get some that way at least. Thanks for the advice 😉

RYN: Thank you so much 🙂 I will def ask about that and check out the diffrent milks!
