G-rated NSV
My kids wanted Five Guys burgers for dinner tonight. I took them, ordered, and sat in the restaurant while we waited for the takeout smelling all those amazing smells... And when I got home I cooked my planned, healthy dinner. :) (I know a burger isn't the devil or anything, I'm just too early into this thing to be…

My first NSV
I have worked out 14 of 29 days this month! This is the first time I've ever been this consistent with working out! And that's up from 10 days in the month of February.

R-rated NSV ;)
Not quite x-rated, but a bit too grown-up for PG-13, so don't say I didn't warn you... My lover had told me he'd fantasized about eating chocolate pudding off my toes. So before he came over this weekend, I made a big bowl of it, and didn't so much as lick the drop that got on my finger when I brought the bowl to the sink.…

Never thought it would happen to me...
Here is what I looked like on my 28th birthday... I had a great career; a wonderful, supportive family; and a faith in my God that couldn't be shaken... HOWEVER, look at me...what I truly happy? Was I living life to the fullest? No, of course not. I had seriously given up all hope of ever finding true love and being…

My first couple NSV's
So... I've lost 19 pounds and I'm feeling SO good. I don't feel like anyone can SEE a big difference yet... but it is amazing how much better I FEEL. I have a long history of headaches and migraines - have had them for years and years without a known cause. I had a headache pretty much everyday... since I've started…

Where are my fireworks????
Well, after losing 40 kg, and FINALLY reaching my ultimate goal, I honestly thought I'd feel amazing, but to be honest, I don't really feel that different....what's wrong??? Why didn't I cry, laugh REACT on the scales this morning when for the first time in my adult life I'm under 65 kg?

Nothing so motivating as seeing results!
Don't give up out there. I have been trying, unsuccessfully, for years to lose weight and NOTHING has been as effective and natural and safe and SIMPLE as MFP. I am going on a cruise in June so was very motivated and have received some of my new clothes after losing almost 15 pounds in less than 3 months! EVERYTHING fit…

WOW! Half way there- with pics!!
I haven't found too many "before" pics (so wish I would have taken full body shots), but I did come across this picture recently where I did a double-take at how overweight I looked. I happen to have worn the same shirt over the weekend and the difference BLEW. MY. MIND! So happy I found MFP!!! Before: Now, 28.5lb later:…

NSV---no longer tight! Loose!
Even though my ticker seems to be moving slow or the scale doesn't seem to budge at all, I've been noticing a lot of amazing changes in my body. I started my journey on January 2011 and as of today, I lost 1% body fat (from about 35% to 34%)....most large size shirts don't fit me well but now I can fit in them....I may…

First Half Marathon -- DONE!
Hello all, Yesterday I completed my very first half marathon. My official chip time was 2:42:08! I was very excited and proud. I am not a very "fast" runner so I was aiming for a 2:36-2:45 finish time.. And I did it! This is special to me because at my heaviest I weighed 265 lbs. I never thought this would have been…

NSV- Self perception
I have been doing this for a little over a month now and even though my body weight hasn't changed all that much, the way I see myself has. I just used the restroom at work and we have a huge mirror in the ladies room so we can make sure we look pretty all day long. Normally I wouldn't want to look at myself and if I did I…

NSV: My Legs
Someone posted a thread asking for people to show pics of their legs. I thought "why not? I have an older pic I'll just use that." After I posted it I really looked and thought to myself how my legs are nowhere near that size now. So I took a new picture. I knew that there was a difference but I didn't realize how much of…

NSV, Imade the right choice!
I went out to Cora's for lunch with my mom on the weekend (my favorite breakfast restaurant) they don’t have any nutritional information available on line or in the restaurant which really worried me. So instead of getting the spinach omelet (I hear it has cream in it)I love or the banana hazelnut waffle I would kill for I…

Wearing a size 6!!!!!
It has been a LONG time since these jeans fit...I put them on and the waist is a bit tight still (thanks to the flabby belly skin that comes with babies), but the butt and legs are actually baggy! I know sizes are not exact, but it sure feels good!!!

Size 12 to a size 8!!!!!
So today I weighed in and I have officially lost 22.5 lbs since December 1st! When I first started dieting and exercising I was a dress size 14 and a pant size 12. Today I went to Kohl’s just for sh*ts & giggles to try on some smaller clothes. I am now a comfortable size 10 dress and size 8 pants!!!! WAHOOO!!!!!!!! Just…
