Week 4 C25K Complete
Pampering myself to a pedicure after completing week 4 of the couch to 5k training. I’m half way there y’all!! This week was more mentally challenging than physically. I didn’t think I would make it through the 5 minute jogging intervals but I did. Each day this week I had to psych myself up to go to the gym. Telling…

A Fitness, not weight loss, success story (still in the making)...
So this is a long(ish) tale, but if you're bored, read on: After finally moving on to the professional desk job around 2009, I started to put on weight, something I had never had issues with in my life. As time wore on, and I didn't change my habits (I typically ate "healthy" so what was there to be concerned about?) the…

5'2 ladies who are a size 2
Hello shorties! I'm 5'2 and my goal is to be a size 2. So my question is who here is 5'2, a size 2, and how much do you weigh? I know every body is different, and some stores make their jeans smaller or bigger than others, but I just want to have an average estimate on what my weight goal should be. Thank you

Before & After (2012 vs 2017)
I can’t believe that guy on the left used to be me! The pic on the right was taken less than a year ago. Trying to get my abs like that again! Hence why I’m on this site, to keep track of what I should and shouldn’t eat and to remind myself that fitness is the key!

My story so far - 243kg (535lb) down to 174.8kg (383lb) with 100kg (220lb) to go!
I wanted to share my story in hope of inspiring others. It's a long story (which I will do my best to keep short). I was 243kg (535lb) at my heaviest. I ended up having lap band in 2010 and in 2011, I got down to 168kg (370lb) but in 2012, I had to have my lapband redone. After that, I ended up being diagnosed with…

54lbs down and half way to goal! Pics
I hit my rock bottom in September. My little girl asked me why I was a circle instead of a rectangle like her and daddy. I realized I needed to do something. I come from a long line overweight family members and I needed to break that cycle. My father died of a massive heart attack at 54 years old. I just lost my uncle 2…

It's the little things!
I have been logging consistently, and have been under my calorie goal since Monday. I may not be logging completely accurately, but I'm happy with it. I have struggled a lot in the past with logging and binge eating. Not logging when I feel like I might have gone over and just throwing the towel in at that point and eating…

Holy Kittens, I went to the beach!
Preface to say, I am NOT a beach person and wouldn't have been even if I had never been fat. It's not necessarily the swimsuit that's the problem, it's the sun/sand/saltwater/fish-gut smell/random washed up detritus/other people aspect that I dislike. I haven't actually been to a beach in about 15 years, despite living in…

Longer Thighs
So, I've been going at this seriously for 8 weeks now. The scale has moved down about 20 lbs. Several people have told me that they can see the weight loss, but I really couldn't. I've had to buy some new clothes, because my old ones were getting really loose, but still I didn't SEE a difference. That was until the other…

12 Week Program Results
Just finished a 12 week training program and these are the results - photos first then the progression of body measurements across the time period. Was tough work, but I was quite surprised at what was possible in just 3 months of hard work. I ate pretty clean with about 3 cheat days across the whole 12 weeks. Wasn't easy…

6 MONTHS INTERMITTENT FASTING TRANSFORMATION WITH PICTURES
KEEP IN MIND THAT MY BODYFAT PERCENTAGE IS NOT ACCURATE, AS THE FAT CALIPER AND THE BODY ANALYZER ROUGHLY GAVE THE SAME ESTIMATES. DAY 157 I am not going do any storytelling. Rather I have laid down the summary for this transformation below nice and easy. Rest, the pictures speak for themselves. Transformation period: 157…

Started May 1st with BLE... lost 80lbs and now my body is healing and coming back!
Did the Bright Line Eating program pretty religiously through December. No exercise on that plan, but it WORKED! I needed to exercise though because my body actually hurt and the sagging skin, etc. Started working out and tracking on MFP only 4 weeks ago, but it's working for me. I didn't take measurements 4 weeks ago and…

My motivation
Got dumped by tx message and that’s what motivated me to lose weight and gain muscle. I been focusing on myself like I was told and I haven’t stopped. I got into some depression but running, dropping this weight and making myself a better person has helped me in so many ways. I still think about my ex and why and what…

Skirmish 1: The Tale of Slaying the First Line of Dragon(pants) Defense
So a long time ago in a land far, far away... okay not really. This story isn't that epic. A long time ago, I lost a lot of weight. I was very close to my goal. Then I hit a plateau, got frustrated, gained a little, then started heavy lifting. BOY WAS I STRONG. HOT DIGGITY DOG!! By the way, the pants were all slain by this…

On track to hitting my 2nd goal :D
I've been on-off for a few years, but in January I decided I really need to do something about my weight. I'm relatively fit for my weight (walk a lot) - but a blood test result showed I was close to becoming diabetic - a reading of 46, where the scale for 'safe' was 2-42. Soooo things need to change. Since January 1st…

First "real" NSV!
I feel that when we start watching what we eat and/or start working out, the people around us who knows this tend to "encourage" us by saying what they think we want to hear. I do not believe that after a week , people can tell "how much you have slimmed down" but they will tell you this anyway. I tend not to really pay…

Juicing
For the first time in my life I have begun juicing. I used a beet, orange, lemon and two apples. A bit messy however, quite tasty. Does anyone juice? Do you find it helpful or counter intuitive to your goals. Calculations gave me 297 calories.

Muscle Reversal Journey
As my PXM Fitness followers know, and I'll keep this to a quick synopsis, roughly 8 years ago, I began a journey to fitness that has truly become an odyssey. Weight years ago, last month, I tipped the scales at a morbidly obese 408 pounds (per medical records). In a little under two years, my transformation to me all the…

One change at a time...first month limiting sugar
It was 5 weeks ago, my doctor told me that I had entered the pre-diabetic stage. Yikes. Coincidently, I watched "The Way We Think About Sugar Is Going To Change". Another coincidence is that I was taking a course about "Tiny Habits" a concept Dr. BJ Fogg who is an expert in creating systems to change human behavior. A…
