Couldn't believe I could do it
At 24Hour Fitness today I held a plank position or prone-iso abs position for two whole minutes with my trainer. I was shaking like a leaf, my muscles were soooo spent. When I first started back in December with my first trainer, I could hardly do 15 seconds! This latest one says that he's never trained a woman who could…

Well, as of yesterday, I am now able to go and buy all the healthy foods that I want! So this morning I began logging my food again~yea!!! Also, along with my training…

25 Lbs down
Okay this is my second post so here it goes. I am a police officer, who got out of the fitness and healthy eating lifestyle. I grew to a whopping 220 Lbs. One day somebody called me a "fat cop". It cut pretty deep, and from that very second I decided I ws going to do something about it. I started by walking 1 mile everyday…

Six Pounds Down!!!!
YAY! I'm so happy! I feel like I'm going to make it! I've lost 6 pounds (about 2lbs per week) and I still have a month and a half left to lose the other six and keep it off!!!! I know it's still a long way to go but I feel motivated and acheived! I can't believe I'm at my half-point! It would depress me if I gained it back…

Two weeks later...
It has been 2 weeks since I started down the path to losing weight and feeling better. As of this morning, I have lost 10 lbs thanks to a 1200 cal diet and exercise. I think thats a pretty good start! :happy:

At the doctors today it was great!
OK, I have been having to go to the doctors almost every week to every 3 weeks minimum for almost 2 years now. Sometimes I would go a few times in a week and every time I went I slowly saw my weight go up and up from 130 up to as high as 178. Between Stairoids and not being able to run or really work out, I just gave up…

WAHOO! I'm "overweight"!!!
Is this something to celebrate?? TODAY it is! I've officially bumped my BMI out of the "obese" range and into the "overweight" range! MAN that feels good. And I'm feeling confident that I've broken my plateau. Only 2 or 3 more lbs before I hit my first BIG goal - breaking the 200lb mark. Hopefully within the next 2 weeks I…

On My Way!
So today was my first official weigh in...down three pounds in a week! I'm pretty stoked about that! :bigsmile: My first week is done and I'm feeling really good about myself. I am actually looking forward to my workouts instead of trying to come up with excuses to not do them!

Bad Mood broken!
ALERT THE MEDIA! My bad mood is officially broken--even though I haven't lost any in the last 3 days--even though I've only lost 8/10 of a pound in 2 weeks--I'm a dancing fool today! I went to my doc for the first visit face-to-face since I've been on MFP, and she was thrilled to death! She said I'm am doing FANTASTIC!…

I got two skorts, here's the best part- size 10!!!:happy: :happy: I did the happy dance in the dressing room. Last year this time I was in a size 20 and did not enjoy shopping at…

I am 8 lbs down (yea) and I have to honestly admit I havent worked to hard for it. It seems like it should have been a lot harder than it was. I got 20 more to go, but finally my clothes are starting to feel looser. It probably sounds crazy but, am I the only one that doesnt believe the scale when you see it go down? Like…

My encouragement for the week...
This week has been one of the worst weeks at work for me... and by the end of the day yesterday I was really upset and just tired. I went grocery shopping with my mom to pick up a few things... got home and went to exercise and just wasn't feeling it at all. But I stepped on the scale today just to see my progress (i…

SHRINKAGE!
:tongue: I knew that would get at least SoupNazi's attention! :tongue: anyway--I do have shrinkage--just not "that kind." MY SCALE FINALLY MOVED! After 11 days of nada, zip, bumpkiss, it moved! I lost 8/10 of a pound overnight I figure either my scale heard my threats from yesterday or my body finally took my threats…

I'm posting two pictures. The first one was taken in March 2007 at the Grand Canyon and the second one was taken just a few days ago at a fair in Kentucky - July 2008. It's my sister and me. My sister has lost about 20 pounds since the first picture, and I have lost 45. Aren't we hot hot hot HOT???

Just a nice Milestone reached
OK, I reached 39 pounds to go. I was in the 40's for so long (even before MFP) that I feel this is a good accomplishement! Even though it is only 4 pounds since I started, it seems like more. And I finally got some pics back on the computer and posted some. No Pug as my main pic anymore, at least for now. SM

Lost 14.5 cm in four months!
I'M SO HAPPY!! I have lost 9cm on my hips in less than 4 months and 5.5cm off my waist in the same time!! Never would have thought I could lose that many cms in so short a time! Only lost 6 kilos though which is less good but still, better than nothing! :love:

Changed to low GI Diet
Hi everyone, I did change over to the lower GI from being on Atkins for a year and it is ok. I like it because i can have more grains, etc. and at 1200 calories I am having a hard time getting UP TO 1200 because I am used to not eating so many things. This week I am not having that problem after the 4th of July and family…
