Someone please slap me! I need help. I am going through so much stress, and food is like a drug for me. It heals me and is like a bandage for me. I just can't stop snacking, and their not healthy snacks. I really want to loose the weight but I just need the stress to stop. I watch all the losing weight commercials and they make it seem so easy. Once you get going does it get easier? :confused: Sorry.
Wow Christa, you look GREAT!!
I'm not doing so good today...I had 4 pieces of pizza today...:rolleyes:
...I went the the dentist today though, and he said my teeth looked WONDERFUL, which adds up to I must be eatting better.
I also went the the doctor to have a Physical, and I weighed in at 123, and 5'4" tall... The nurse said I am in great shape, and would kill for my body... *secretly gleams inside* :p I guess I'm doing something right!! :D
Wow Christa, Your before and after pictures are inspiring.
I still haven't taken the before picture even though I am continuing to lose weight. I have lost about 12 lbs. and hope to lose more. I have been struggling this past week but have kicked myself in the butt to do better.
You look great.

The good part is that I didn't eat them both on the same day. I've gained back the pound I lost last week, but I think now that the candy bars and cookies are out of the house, I'll be okay. We go shopping tonight. I'll have to ask my husband to monitor what gets put in the shopping cart.
Hey guys!!! Thanks for the compliments but I was hoping that more of you would post before & after pics. I know that we've done it before in . . .
THIS THREAD . . .
Just in case you wanna see . . . :)
Thanks for keeping us all on track Christa.....
I am doing pretty well so far - have lost another 15 lbs since June, for a total loss so far of 23 lbs, so I have 27 lbs to go to get to my goal weight of 132lbs!!!
All my size 16's have now been packed away, and my size 14's are hanging down around my backside (NOT a very flattering look - if makes me look like I have a huge dirty diaper on LOL).
My Harley Davidson hipsters (which I could only close 2 buttons in June) - now fit better than they did when I fisrt bought them, and will SOON be too big!!!
I am REALLY treating myself this week - I have a horrible keloid scar across my belly button from my surgery last year - this Wednesday I have an appointment with a Plastic Surgeon to revise the scar and re-stitch the incision to get rid of the UGLY scar! When it's all healed up, I'm getting my belly button peirced! :D
