That is awesome! I can so relate to this way of measuring progress.
-
Wow! What an inspiration!
-
Excellent! So motivating to see your back shaping up - that's a huge goal of mine. Probably see it in about 12-13 more pounds, based on your progress.
-
Way to go!!
-
That's cool. I wouldn't have thought those were the same shorts. Congratulations!
-
Exciting!!

Fantastic! I hate the tyranny of scale numbers, but did a little game with myself this week. I weighed in on my official day +2. The next day, I was -2. So, I chalked it up to a fluctuation and moved on with my life. But still, for those 48 hours...hahaha!

Seriously great picture of you! If I looked like that in a bikini, I would be plastering that pic everywhere. Go, girl. :)

Thank you!

Planning and preparing food and laying out clothes for the gym and work the night before are the things that work best for me. That way, I have no excuses for doing the things I want to do the next day.

Hi - 5'5" and losing 40. Feel free to add me!

Oh, and I just joined and am looking for friends if anyone wants to add me. Can use the support and promise to give it back.

I agree that last winter was so much worse. A hat and scarf are really key to keeping warm. I was doing an experiment to see what weight coat I really needed, up until this latest cold front, and you would be surprised: layers under a light coat plus scarf and hat keep you very warm, even just going to the subway or bus.…

I agree. Congratulations!
-
Awesome job! Your back pictures have inspired me - to think that I can lose the back fat would be so fantastic. :)
-
Fabulous.
-
AMAZING!
-
Wow- what did you do to correct it?
-
Great job! You look wonderful.
-
WOW!

*This*. You don't realize how quickly your body adapts, so you always need to push it. I use a heart rate monitor and am doing mostly high incline walks (some running), and your heart rate will get up there, even walking at < 4 mph, if the incline is high enough. I used to think mileage was the goal on a treadmill, but…

40 and a few months, just started MFP. Anyone can feel free to add me as a friend, but bear with me as I am still learning the ropes of the community side of MFP. (I think I have the journaling okay!)
