  • Lose one more pound to get to a total of 10 pounds lost. Then onto the next 10!
  • When I went to pick up my mom for lunch today the first thing she said was "you've lost a lot of weight!" I said thank you and that it was only 2 to 3 pounds since I last saw her and she said "no it looks like a lot more than that!" I have a long way to go but it felt great to have her notice! 🙂
  • Break into the 180s...I have been hovering at 190.2 and 190.4 for days! Hoping for a whoosh soon 🤞
  • I was feeling discouraged that I am in a bit of a stall with the scale, so I took measurements yesterday and have lost 6 inches off my body in the past couple of months! My clothes are fitting much better and I feel much slimmer. I have also been able to wear my wedding ring comfortably again. This weight lifting is paying…

  • I needed this inspiration this week, thank you so much for sharing your success. You look amazing!!!
  • I stayed within calories for 10 days straight! Being consistent has always been hard for me, and doing that for those 10 days gave me a big confidence boost and made me feel better physically. Those 10 days included my son's birthday party and having leftover cake and cupcakes sitting on the counter for a week. I had a…
  • Ran a 15k yesterday, then came home and packed for a few hours for our move to a new house! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️
  • Got up at 545 this morning and went for a three mile run! :) I love to run but I am NOT a morning person and have always made excuses about why I couldn't run in the morning, but last night I decided enough was enough, laid out my clothes and charged my gadgets, and was out the door on time and at work on time!!! Now I…

  • Organized my closet today and fit comfortably in a pair of size 10 dress pants!
  • Ran a 5k in 32:30 yesterday!
  • It's Halloween and I only ate two pieces of snack size candy today. I went over on my deficit but not above maintenance calories, which I'm ok with. I'm not hungry right now and don't feel the need to dig into the candy bowl. This feels like a huge nsv since I remember overeating on lots of candy last Halloween!
  • Wore a pair of jeans yesterday that I haven't worn in about four years, since I got pregnant with my first child! When I was wearing them I sat down on the floor to help my son get dressed and as I was sitting I thought "oh please, don't let me rip these pants right now" haha. Luckily I sat down with no problem! It was…

  • Just hit 400 days logging!
  • To get into the 150's by labor day!
  • Yesterday my best friend told me that I'm looking skinny! I've never been skinny and am still in overweight bmi but it felt great to hear that my work is paying off!
  • After three months of slacking and making excuses I've stayed under my calories and have been moving a lot more over the past five days. Yesterday we went to have dinner with my husband's family. Usually when we have a family dinner or party all bets are off and I undo my hard work in one day. Yesterday I was very…
  • 1. Finally started running again last week. Pace was very slow but it still felt great! 2. Fit into some shorts that I haven't worn in 4 years! 3. This is a scale victory but I'm too excited...my baby turned 9 months the weekend and I'm officially at pre-pregnancy weight! 9 months to put it on, 9 months to take it off! It…
  • 1. My mom gave me a bag of Starburst jelly beans a few days ago (my favorite!) and there are still some left! They never lasted this long before haha 2. Got offered a new job yesterday! Better hours = more time with my family and more time to move! Better benefits and pay = more money for exercise gear and race entries!

  • Couple of NSV's this week... 1. I wore regular dress pants to work today instead of maternity pants (5 months postpartum) and they fit comfortably!!! I was worried I would have to unbutton them at some point but they feel great! :smile: 2. After I had my baby my discharge paperwork said I was obese, which to be honest kind…
  • Had to stop at the store after work and was starving. Decided to get a bag of m&ms because I could fit them in my calories. Got to the checkout and they only had the sharing size bags (the size I usually get). Picked one up, looked at it for a second, and put it right back down. I felt I couldn't just eat half the bag and…

  • You don't need to cut meat out of your diet to lose weight. Choose foods that you like, weigh and measure them and stay within your calorie goal. I've been a vegetarian for 20 years and have gained weight when I ate more calories than I was burning. It will be much harder to be successful if you deprive yourself of things…
  • Went to my bootcamp class this morning even though my husband was trying to guilt me and bribe me into staying home with him!!!
