June Amazing Amazon Thread

Beautiful wedding photo!

And I agree with Blueyed_blond, I hope that I can look half as great as you in a bikini!:flowerforyou:

Motivation to run a couple extra miles tonight! :ohwell:

I'd settle for a one piece:grumble:

Morning!

So last night I was having a lazy night....didn't work out, watching tv.....THEN I felt terrible...thought of bikini's and went for a jog :happy: felt so much better.

How did everyone else make out with working out yesterday? Do you have a routine you follow..or do you change it up everyday????

Yesterday was one of those days I knew I would go over my calorie intake so I logged them all in beforehand in the AM, and sure enough was over by 450 calories!:noway:

Sooo, I hit the gym before going home and made sure not to leave until I burned off more than that!:laugh: Ran 2.5 miles and hit the elliptical hard for about 15 minutes and that did the trick! Felt so much better and was able to enjoy the rest of the night!

hello tallies! :flowerforyou:

so here i am 33, 6'1 and 190 lbs. i would like to get down to at least 170. i was well on my way starting with MFP in january until april - lost 10 pounds and was feeling really great. then - wham! - i got stuck in a not so healthy rut and i am back where i started

its all my fault, really. but i have big plans i tell ya! :drinker: i got the 30 day shred and plan on shredding it starting monday. i know that is a typical saying, but i really have a ton of things going on this weekend and i wont be able to start before then. i did the shred a couple times and it kicked my butt! then i hurt my knee and have been a bit lazy ever since...im on a shred thread and i think they are going to hunt me down! :indifferent:

my goal was to slim down again by june 22nd (i am working at a charity golf tourn with a bunch of skinny mini 20-somethings :grumble: ) so we'll see how i do in the next two weeks. i dont think i will be nearly where i want to be, but if i could drop a few by then i can imagine stopping!

you all know how its not easy to find great jeans...well i have at least 8 pair in my closet that i cannot get into. plus my boobage is waaaay more than id like it to be, so hopefully with diet and excercise i can shrink a bit. :smokin:

im so excited about this thread! :drinker:

Yesterday was such a bad day for exercise plus I went over my calories because I was cutting up fruit and could not stop picking at it. I normally workout in the morning but I woke up 45 minutes late so I didn't have time. I normally do abs and upper body tuesday/thursday and legs Mon/wed/fri but this morning I did both routines to make up for yesterday. I was totally wiped.

Looking at the thread with the husband talk. My husband is the same height as me. I have dated shorter and taller but as they say, everyone is the same height laying down!

Haha! Don't you wish we got to chose where we lost weight first???:laugh:
For me, boobs are always the first to go!

Also, what kind of jeans? I'm always looking for that perfect pair! We tall ones are hard to fit!

Mine won't go away! I've been as E this whole ride. :blushing: The only thing that changes is the band. What I wouldn't give to be able to buy bras that didn't cost $50!

Hey fellow Tall Ladies! I saw this and had to join which I hope is ok! I am 6'2 current weight is 248 goal weight to be under 200. former weight at my heaviest was 315.

Welcome! Congrats on all your success so far :flowerforyou:

Did you lose it all on MFP?




Summer 2009 WILL Be Different!


Thanks, Over the years I've lost weight l got down to 225 when I got married 3 years ago then I gained weight after I got married which is my current weight. I lost my first weight going to curves and working out. This time around I started MFP in may and I've lost 7 pounds so far using this site! think I'll actually get down to My goal of under 200.
Oh! I met my husband on match.com!! Saw the old posts about it.

Had a planned cheat day, Chinese! Still lost 2 lbs since thursday.. I feel great!:drinker:

I did the opposite of overindulge on Sunday. I had a banana for breakfast then went to the movies. My boyfriend and I normally get lunch to take in with us but we didn't have time. So by time we got out of the movies as 4p, I had only eaten 200 cals. I had greek for dinner but I wasn't sure if it would be worse to not eat enough for the day or to eat a day's worth of calories in 5hours... Oh well. I Gyros and Tiziki!

Welcome to a new week :flowerforyou:

:blushing:

:flowerforyou: I did aweful on saturday
but made up for it and was extra good on sunday! Healthy home cooked breakfast, healthy lunch while hiking at the beach, did a little climbing (ended up walking and playing for 4 hours) then went to DQ were I only had a 200 cal item WHICH is amazing when all those sundays are looking you in the face!!!! Then made Healthy turkey tacos for dinner.... I got on track and am gonna kick my butt this week. Gonna walk the kids to school today and I found a great place to walk to from my house. 2miles there and 2 miles back....so we will see!
Hope everyone has a wonderfly day!:bigsmile:

Good job getting back on track! I don't know if I could have resisted the sundays. Ice cream is definately my weakness. I'm SO addicted to McDonalds vanilla ice cream cones. :blushing:

Tuesday.....

Didn't work out yesterday either :sad: went shopping instead.....but was happy because everything fit nice for a change

Hope to eat super well today...I need to focus on nutrition I think instead of just calories.....I need to add more veggies for sure.....

Have a great day everyone! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

I burned about another 1,000 calories yesterday, YAH!, and feel like I ate pretty decent yesterday as well. I've been treating myself to high fibre snacks for the past couple days, but not feeling to guilty about it. I also made a really yummy chicken breast that I had marinated in a greek vinegrette, and then made a potato and yam bake to accompany it. It was soooo yummy!!!

Anyways, I'm excited for today because my boyfriend will be joining me at the gym for the first time tonight! I also have a whole new motivation because my tummy tuck consultation is coming up in just a few short months!!

Best of luck today ladies!!

Also, what kind of jeans? I'm always looking for that perfect pair! We tall ones are hard to fit!

I wear Rock & Republic. They are crazy long, even when I wear heels! Love them!
