). Now I want to get to my wedding weight and then my college weight! Only 50 more to go by our October sail date. I'm starting to believe I can do this!!!! 
. I've heard chewing mint gum will make food less appetizing. I'm going to try it because a menu of danish, bagels, muffins, casseroles, and ice cream coffee drink is going to be TOUGH to walk away from! And I'm a "pleaser" so I never want to look rude by turning down food. 
The scale is not moving in any direction. Last night I ordered a months worth of Nurtisystem. I have done it before and lost about 15 pounds in two months. I am hopping I can have the same results again. My problem last time was I went from Nutrisystem to eating TONS of junk food. I am hopping I can use Nutrisystem for the next several months then ease back in to the healthy eating I was doing.
Hi all! Had a nice time reading through all of these success stories and motivated cruisers! Thought it would be nice to share my story as well
I joined weight watchers last August after graduating college and realizing I'd gained 45lbs over the course of 4 years...such a scary thought considering my age, I wanted to get healthy so I could live a long and happy life! I worked hard and soon found myself losing the pounds and feeling good about myself. I hit a plateau about 20 pounds in, like usual and got really depressed about it...my mom (who's been by my side through thick and thin) won't let me quit!! I have a lot of weight to lose, and when I lose focus I just think about my mom and how much she cares about me. I am now down 50 pounds!! With about 70 pounds more to go, I can do this, I can become a healthier me...my weight is not going to rule my life!
When I hit 120 lost, I am going to go on a Disney cruise to celebrate!
Okay, now I really have to work at it, so we can meet, and see our accomplishments. I have the picture from my Dec. 2011 cruise that I keep comparing myself too for motivation.

Yes! I have pics from our annual Disney Christmas pics so I can see the progression over the last few years. Righ now I have a pair of jeans my sister gave me hanging on my bedroom wall beside my bed. I want fit into them by cruise time!
Even though I am working out 6 days a week and recording my food, I am finding it very difficult. I am half way to my total weight loss and the results are so great, I just want to cheat - like eating 5 chocolate wafers, and not recording them. I talked to my trainer today, after working off my ..... and she said it is not uncommon to get to this point, and just to think of the end goal. I am in the size of clothes that was my goal for Sept. I just have to think that I may end up wearing smaller sizes then expected because of the exercise. Wouldn't that be cool.
I have an internal battle everyday over pizza/cheeseburgers vs. Turkey & Chicken
Hope you enjoyed yourself. This weekend is my birthday, and then of course Mother's Day when my husband takes me out for brunch, so he does not have to cook dinner. I plan to hit the gym both days, and take the dog out for a walk. This should help counter balance any treats.
