I am down t0 160!!!!!. This is the smallest I have been in 3 years. I am getting so many compliments. I have 10lbs and it feels like i can loose them easily. I am going to start lifting wieghts when i get to about 155lbs or so. my body looks so much better. its amazing what loosing 20lbs over 6 months will do to your self confidence!!!
Congrates! That's a great task that you've undergone. Hope you're making exercise a part of your life now 
. Well I'm trying to make it a part of mine. I just started lifting weights too. I've read that it's good to have just one time total body workout. I spread my total body workout into 3 days per week. 1st day: chest and back 2nd day: shoulders , arms 3rd day: legs
Hope this helps to add a little info. Good luck!

Looking back at post from 12-24
If you feel you have to go to Wendy's after work you should try the BLT Chicken salad. It comes with Honey Mustard dressing, you can ask for lite dressing. It is sooooo good and super filling, if you can even finish it.
Hope you come back and keep posting, we are here for each other and will support you all the way

good luck with all of your efforts pt!! I feel like we are about the same in our goals and place we are... I'm trying to get to 150, and then set the next goal... this morning i hit the 159 mark... which i can't even remember the last time i weighed so little!
I really encourage you to post every day.. it really helps you to see that what you are doing is worth it and keeps focus on it. I think that if you tried to maintain where you are at for a few weeks that would be awesome.. but i also think that if you start posting every day and you will find the motivation to maybe loose a half pound or so a week, if not more. You can do this! we are all in this together =)

Im sorry mate I don’t know how but I missed you’re last post, what a $@*^#$#@. I hope you are ok. A new job how exciting . What will you be doing?
Don’t panic about food most places have a healthy dish on there menu. Try to stay away from creamy dishes. Most meals are larger portions than we need but you don’t have to eat it all, just eat your meals slowly and enjoy them it will give your tummy time to register that you are full, leave the rest on your plate. If what you are having comes with a sauce or gravy ask can you have it on the side that way you can control how much is on there.
Become a diva if you don’t want something on your meal tell them don’t worry about upsetting them...You are paying for the meal and you are eating it so you should have it the way you want it. Try to have some fruit and low fat snacks around (some things you can fit into your purse) so if you are caught on the run you can always have something that’s not going to go to your hips.
Do you have an exercise DVD or video? Probably best if you take one of each of these. There is always walking you can do it anywhere any time and its one of the best exercises you can do I think. And you never no your luck if you like working out in a gym …when you book in at any place ask were there nearest gym is and if it’s any good, they should be good for local knowledge.
If you have any questions I will do my best to answer them just give me a yell, hope this helps mate.

Hey there.. haven't heard from you in a while... That is totally uncool about your boyfriend, but i'm glad that you got a new job - it gives you a chance to take your mind off of things. I'm hoping that with all the traveling you just haven't had a chance to post and that's the only reason we haven't heard from you.
I agree with rosered that walking would be a great way to exercise while traveling. If you are flying around, even justwalking through the airport between flights instead of sitting helps immensley! Good luck with all of that, and I hope to hear from you soon!
