OMG that would be mortifying!!! At least mine fell down at home before I could leave the house!!! But at the same time YAY and congrats!!!!

Oh my, what an experience! I would write in my journal about that and maybe scrapbook it! I am glad you are back in your size 16's again! Thank goodness for the smaller sized clothes!

I don't know if you have a Walmart where you are but in the meat section NOT the frozen section there are packs of Tyson chicken and steak packs that are 6oz a bag and some are 8 ozs. Here the 6oz bag is $2.50 and the 8oz bag is $2.96. Its quick and easy, its precooked so basically just heat and serve. I pan fry it then throw it on top of a salad, or brown the steak and throw in my cauliflower rice and pan fry them together yummy! SInce its already premeasured and precooked it doesn't take long to prepare the meal!

I'm sorry jordanna, that would have made me cry. GF I agree with another poster, you need a couple of scarfs to use as a belt.

Thanks for the website link Pxlkitty4!

I detoxed off of caffeine years ago and would like to give you a tip. I would start today (best case) or tomorrow. It is not actually the first day or so that you feel the withdrawal, it is the 2-4 day. When I did it, I started on Thursday and felt fine all day. Friday was ok, by Friday afternoon was starting to get a headache and by Saturday and Sunday it was full blown. I definitely timed it that way on purpose so that the worst of it would be over the weekend and not while I was working.

Also, do not really plan on doing much but sleeping through it. The headaches are truly tough and I pretty much slept on the sofa all weekend long Drink lots and lots of water and try to stay away from chocolate also. Keep on pushing through and once you are on the other side, it feels great!

I am going to have to try the kohlrabi fries!! Sounds delish! Great job on all your victories!

For me, the worst part is the chips and salsa. The Mexican place we go to makes an incredible steak salad. It is basically a huge salad with lots of lettuce and their steak. It also has tomatoes and avocados but I always leave them off. See if they have a salad and you get steak or chicken, or like you said the taco salad on a bed of lettuce, not in the bowl. Even before IP I got the steak salad all the time.

Thank you, I just wanted to see the difference 6 months have made and after those pictures boy I can tell now... Rebel is very spoiled... Jewel is my good but old dog and camera shy.

Thank you, if I can do it anyone can.... I can't wait for the continuation of my journey.

Thank you, I still don't see me as tiny but skinnier... I think it will take a while to get use to this new body.

Jordanna I am sorry about your incident, I just about did the same thing today, forgot it was garbage day and went running out with the garbage as the truck was at the neighbors... I could feel them slipping luckily I was wearing a long t shirt, no one would have known.... and St albert isn't that big but you will be a topic for today and then someone else will hit the radar and you will be forgotten. You are doing great, when I first started in Feb, I read all your old postings, you were an inspiration to me and you still are. You will laugh about this later... sorry I did when I read it. Time to go to the good will and get different sizes, my friend says the one in St Albert all of the hockey wifes drop their clothes off there so you have a good quality of clothing to select from.

yes my sister and i never really got along growing up but now that there are no parents, she is really important to me. She said it took a lot of will power to do what I was doing.... I never thought I had will power, it just shows that if you select the correct path anyone can do this. Have a great day.

Collarbones I haven't seen since I was 16... it is so cool to have again... I look in the mirror and see the colloar bones and go YEAH I am going in the right direction.

Thank you Cindy, I think after the wedding and I saw the pictures is when I knew I had to do something... this has been an incredible journey.

AWESOME job...keep it up!

Another 3 lbs lost and 3 inches gone!! Mini milestone, by being out of the 230's!! And under the 100 lb to lose! I feel so good about myself and i love this forum everyone else's weight loss success helps to keep me motivated! Thanks everyone.

That is so exciting! I LOVE cruises, and they are so affordable right now it is ridiculous. Especially when you consider all that is included.
I think most of the major cruise lines do free babysitting, but I am not sure. I have done Carnival and Norwegian, and they were both excellent. Now I want to go on a cruise....
Just to let you know, the site I used for both my cruises (And someone tell me if this breaks the no promoting other websites or links rule and I will remove it) is vacationstogo.com. You can search all the cruises on all the cruiselines where and when you wanna go, and they have always had the best discounts for me.
It will be so much fun!! Especially in your new body.

This almost just happened to me minutes ago! I was holding everything in my hands at the store and they fell further and further and I was thanks the Lord I had a longer shirt on so I dropped my stuff on the counter and hiked them up.

Are you participating in the summer challenge, Pxl created a spreadsheet and it lets you know the percentage you have lost of the amount you want to lose total. When I filled in my numbers yesterday I noticed that I have completed 11.83% of my goal which means I am over 10% of the way there...pretty impressive. Here is the link....anyone can add their name its a great way to keep track....

Good Afternoon friends!!! Had a fair WI last night......2.8 for a total of 32!!!!! I will be glad to get out of the 230's soon! My first goal was to be down to 225 by end of August, and I believe that is a reality now!!!! I'm really happy and my husband has been supportive to an extent, but last night he finally told me he was proud of me!!! That brought me to tears!!! He's struggled with weight his whole life, worse then myself, and he kept warning me that I'll go back to heavy again, even told me not to get rid of my bigger clothes! I told him I wont need them again, and will only keep maternity stuff since we're hoping to have a 2nd little one in the future.

Anyway, glad to see so many victories all over the place!

Hope everyone has a blessed day!

Ah, thank you, thank you... I've been searching like mad, but keep finding myself on screens that want me to provide personal information before I get the final price. GRRRRR.... Someone told me that the day camps for kids are normally included, but that the night-time stuff depends on the cruiseline. Someone said that Disney kids club went until midnight or something crazy like that. Not sure the information was right, and I haven't confirmed it anywhere.
