#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Ok, sorry if some don't really want to hear this.. but i finally broke through the 150lb mark, going down that is... this is the first time in about 4 yrs that i've been able through work, and mainly diet to get my weight down below the 150 mark! and i stepped on the scale today, i do that once a week max.. and it said i was between 145 and 150, not a dig scale! but yeah! finally and i feel so good! it is awesome.. thanks for letting me say that!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Yipee Kobau!  Must be a great feeling! #ed_op#IMG src="http://forums.equestrianconnection.com/richedit/smileys/Happy/11.gif"#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I can sort of relate.  I used to be in the 120's for years and have been over 130 for some time now (135 right now acutally)  My goal is to go back in the 120's and wow... not easy!  If I'm not careful, I easily go up to 140.  But when I put effort, eat well and exercise, it seems it's just enough to maintain that 135.  *sigh*  I guess I'll need to do more...#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#So, tell us, what are your secret diet tips? ;)#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I'm just under 5'7.. and I used to weigh in at 130-135 when i was always riding and all that...hitting 165 was a kick in the pants!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I've dropped almost all junk food, when i get snacky i have a lowfat yogurt instead, love light and fit vanilla! plus cut out tonnes of sugars, and most bread, still have it.. but i'm not eating it all the time, and same with pasta and rice... and another thing i've really watched my portion size... that and chaanging my BC seems to have helped... went fromt he patch to the tricyclen lo pill....#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#that is awesome to hear of others doing so well also...!! i want to get really fit cause i'd like to event again this year, and fitness is key thing!..#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
