Click is a Protein powder..just google it. My addiction is shopping and window shopping/combined with looking at fashion mags. I loved fashion before I got fat and wanted to be a designer at one time. Unlike many I never had a emotional bond with food.

Currently 119.

My normal was 150. I wanted to be 5 below that. I hit that goal in Feb. I am now 119. I just let my body pick a stopping point. I figure we will gain 5-10 pounds as we raise calories and eat a bit more with time.

Thanks. I'm 11 pounds thinner and should do another skin video. I think I look a little bit better--not sure. I don't want to lose more. My mission now is to maintain and build muscle. Stay positive, positive thoughts, energy and efforts DO make a difference.

They're not shallow? LOL I will say that my man is. He has ALWAYS made fun of flat butt chicks. He is very adamant about liking "thick" shapes. We have beem married 19 yrs and I have not been this weight in 18yrs. My rear needs some lifting and weight training will help but I no longer feel the need to conform to a certain look to please someone else. I think it comes with me turning 40 soon and I am at that age of "self contentment".

You look great!

I don't think anyone said black men want fat women BUT they on average want shapely women,moreso than white men. I have been thick,fat and now skinny at goal. I got the most play at "thick" My husband liked me better at 155-160 and I am 5'5 pear shaped. That was not my goal and I am currently 130-135 and a size 2. At this point I don't gives a shitz because I am happy and I have out my needs first. I was not willing to still be at risk for ANY disease because I wanted big hips and a big azz. Everyone will make the choice that makes them happy though but I see wayyyy too many black women choosing to be thick for thier "man".

smh!. umph! Neckrolling...side eye. No you didn't. Girl. Get in touch with me. I LOVE window shopping : ) We can hit up Wheaton Mall, Columbia Mall Arundel Mills--shoot Rockville.. Tsk, Tsk, Tsk.. People get a sleeve and act like they can't coordinate with somebody...lol Kidding aside 1. You are going to be down more than 2 sizes by then. 2. Check out Youtube OOTD videos. I love watching people put clothes and colors together. 3. Magazines, Marie Claire, Vogue, Glamour, Essence (sometimes), O Magazine, InStyle. I love that kind of thing. Know your body shape. and you can look up sites that recommend cuts for that body type. Undergarments are king and the proper fit goes a long way. Accessories! Dresses, Shoes! Locally I also check out Burlington Coat Factory-they have a lot of dresses this time of year.

My goal weight was 145. I am currently 138. I want my maintenance weight to be between 133-139. Just keep in mind that it is normal to gain 5-10 pounds around yr 2-3. It is much easier to get it off now as opposed to trying later on. Other than that, yes you look great!.

Well I started at 233 and today I am 138. I want to maintain between 133-139. I have been on various boards and only seen 2-3 people have trouble with the loss stopping. If anything, people tend to start slacking at the 6 month point and some bad habits start creeping back in. Then hitting goal gets tricky as you get closer to goal. I did not want to lose my "curves" but I also did not get my guts butchered to stay "plump". Hubby will get over it and I plan on using weights to define certain areas, also spanx and Victorias Secret will help out...lol I can only recommend that you go a tad under goal. The majority of people gain at least 5 pounds back around the 2-3 year mark.
