Can I do it too?
First of all I want to say congrats to all of you who have lost the weight. You are all an inspiration to me. Now, a little about me...I am a stay at home mom of 3 boys ages 2,5, and 9. They keep me moving but obviously not enough. I enjoy good food which unfortunately is not the best food for me. I am 50% mexican and 50%…

I'm close to my goal, but I'm not happy yet
My mind is playing tricks with me, I'm 4 lbs away from what I set as my goal but I still see all the jiggly fat and the cellulite on my butt. And now my brain keeps thinking I can go lower, "how low can you go?". According to the BMI calculator 104 is the lowest before being "underweight". Learning that has now become a…

I've lost 85 pounds
Just saw this and thought I'd tell my story. I'm 23 years old, and I've been fat my whole life. My family has a history of obesity, and when I was in elementary school my asthma kept me indoors and inactive; the steroids did the rest of the job. By the time I graduated high school I was over 100 pounds past my ideal body…

Baby Steps
Alright, today I had my first little step along the road to healthy. At work, two different people, at two different times, mentioned that I'd lost some weight. Woohoo! Feels good to have made enough progress that people noticed. And I don't even know how much weight I've lost, as my scale is broken. Who cares, at this…

I jogged 1/4 of a mile!
I did so without stopping. I felt quite a burn just in those couple of minutes..felt my whole body heating up when it was freezing outside. I feel proud though. It was really tough, I was breathing hard..had some aches and pains but I did it. I think I'm going to try the couch25k program if anyone wants to start with me…

Super small but motivating victory!!!
I know this is a super small victory... This morning after I got out of the shower, I went in my closet and tried on my too small bridesmaid dress for my friend's upcoming wedding in July. I was able to zip it up!!!! WITHOUT the help of my boyfriend and WITHOUT doing the whole "exhale" to let all the air out so you can zip…

What a dfference a year has made!
Today I went hiking in the snow for an hour with my hubby. Probably doesn't sound like much to some but for me it was quite an accomplishment. Last yeat at this time I couldn't even walk around Wal-Mart for 5 minutes without finding a bench to sit on. I also had to be dropped off at the front door because there was no way…

30 pounds down, 30 to go! I figure the first 30 was the easy part but I gave myself a year to do it and did it in 3 months. Now I figure a year to get the next 30.

Radio changed my life!!!
Last Christmas I weighed more than 290lbs, I was uncomfortable, unhappy and unhealthy. I had given up on myself and that was that. I ate what I wanted when I wanted and I moved as little as possible.

for the first time in years...
So I realized when I started exercising in August 2010 that I was extremely out of shape. Every since I was 5 years old, I played softball until about 3-4 years ago when I had my son. It's hard to play softball and make sure I have a babysitter to watch him and also have time to bring him to the field to watch me play. So…

Well after 1 week I have gone up a notch on my belt. Only back to pre Christmas position but a step in the right direction.
