    Amazing results! Very inspirational... I have been considering crossfit and now I might give it a try. I wanted to ask, are you taking any protein supplements?

    Holy wow. Wait, 10 months?! This is insane! You look incredible! Great job!!

    The amazing thing to me is that your "before" pic is truly like looking in a mirror for me. And I too am very sensitive to carbs... The only way I've lost significant weight in the past was to cut my carbs a ton. So, I'm interested... Could you please give me a sample of what your daily meals are like? I got knocked on my rear with pneumonia for a month and a half and now I'm better, I need to do something about my weight. I'd really appreciate it!

    Thank you so much (all of you!). So, I do 3 days of low carb, 1 day of high carb (for me) and the following day VERY low-carb.

    Low-carb: Breakfast- eggs and egg white omelet with spinach, chicken, bell peppers, broccoli, mushrooms, and cheese
    Lunch: BIG spinach salad with steak, bleu cheese, almonds, and olive oil (and some veggies occasionally)
    Snack: Protein shake with walnuts
    Dinner: Baked/grilled chicken breast with almonds and a veggie
    Post-workout: Quest bar (has protein AND carbs, and up until about 1 hour after a workout carbs are basically free)

    High-carb: Breakfast- old-fashioned or steel-cut oats with chocolate protein powder, Stevia, and peanut butter stirred in (my fave)
    Lunch: Black beans, brown rice, chicken, or some kind of other mix
    Snack: Protein shake or Quest bar
    Dinner: Lean meat source with sweet potato or beans (I prefer the sweet potato)
    Post-workout: Quest bar or protein shake

    Oh and a gallon of water a day!

    Jesus Christ, girl, you are officially my inspiration! Great job - and I am the same, I have to stay on a very strictly healthy diet in order to lose anything. One piece of breads will screw up my entire weeks. Its horrible.

    OMG I freakin love you. I love this post so much that I almost made out with my computer screen.

    I feel the same way about eating and have a similar workout regimen, and I am excited to see your progress. I just started CrossFit a month ago and you are inspiring me.

    Love, love, love the short term performance goals and the fact that you DON'T WEIGH YOURSELF. I have never seen a better post on MFP. Thank you so much! Love your progress and keep up the good work. You never know who you might be inspiring!

    omg girl. You just made me DIE in the middle of my office. HAHA

    YES I gave up weighing myself a long time ago. Best decision ever. I made a blog post here about it: http://myfitnesscrossfitjourney.tumblr.com/

    I'll probably make a separate post about it too!

    So glad I can inspire such amazing women on here!

    You really do! I think it's time to stop being lame and start a tumblr account to follow myfitnesscrossfitjourney. :D
