I recently had to get my engagement ring sized down by 1 size after a 60lb loss. (I was sizing my wedding band since I just got married in May.) Now I wish I went at least 1.5 sizes since both are now loose! (total of 65lb loss with at least another 15lbs to go). #weightlossproblems lol

How I plan my work attire based on what will function and look okay after I take my walk breaks and get sweaty . (I also keep a pair of tennis shoes at work.) How much I look forward to my walk breaks. I laugh because I have to walk alone since no one can keep up with my fast pace. lol How weird it feels when people say…

I'm 5'6". SW: 225 Size 16 US CW: 160-165 (fluctuating for a while now) size 8-10 US GW: 135-140 size 4-6

I figured yoga in the heat and SHADE is better than walking/running in the heat and direct SUN. I'll find out when I try it! :smiley: Thanks for the other tips!

I love this idea! (This is what I was trying to get out of this thread! lol) I'm going to try to get some of my coworkers to bring in yoga mats and we'll go to a grassy patch in the parking lot and do yoga on some breaks. Thanks! We just got a whole house fan for our wedding - now pricing out the install. A/C is super…

I no longer fit into the largest size clothes at regular stores. I finally broke down at went to Torrid and Lane Bryant. I saw pictures of myself and thought, "I don't see all those chins in the mirror". I outgrew a Tiffany necklace. HOW DO YOU OUTGROW A NECKLACE? I was always hot and sweaty. Finally, my blood pressure was…

Thanks everyone! I have a cool towel that saved me last summer. I started my more active lifestyle last September, so I haven't really had to deal with my new activity level with the major summer heat yet. I'm trying to get prepared since yesterday and today are miserable. I forgot to mention: I'm in southern CA - summers…

I completely tore my left knee's ACL in 2000 while playing soccer. I dislocated my knee when I pivoted (snap!) and then tried to walk it off so I keep playing. Well, needless to say, that was my last game. Back in 2000, ACL repairs meant a major incision down the front of the knee - similar to knee replacement surgeries. I…

4865.2 + my 64 = 4929.2

Seriously! I think I need to try some new frames but love the ones I have. I notice them slipping all the time lately - didn't think to try to get them tightened. People tell you how inspirational you are. People start wanting to talk to you about supplements, workouts, tricks, etc (I don't use supplements!! I lost it the…

Thanks everyone!! It really helped having his support. What's funny is that Ryan really changed his eating habits while at work and that helped immensely for him (no more fast food - he now packs a sandwich on whole wheat and an apple daily- which is all he wants). Since I do all the cooking at home and grocery shopping,…

Just got the M7 a month ago and have been using it off and on only because I was sick for 2 solid weeks with a cold when it arrived. It now is making a weird noise (another reason I haven't been on it as often). Going to send Bowflex an email about it this weekend and hopefully it's something minor. I've been wanting to…

But "Doing Good" vs. "Doing Well" are quite different. lol :joy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc

Thanks! Do you have a preferred place for your essential oils? I know my mom loves Rocky Mountain Oils because they're food-grade, but they're so expensive!

33 here and down 63lbs since September. :smile:

I'm the same way...so driven by competition. I don't need the money, but yeah, it's nice. lol Best of luck on your next BL comp!!!

@GusOC Awesome! I'm near Bixby Knolls. I'm born and raised South OC (Laguna Niguel) but love the LA sports (or well, just hockey. All other sports are boring in comparison). Go Kings, Go!

I notice it the most in the workplace. I have people telling me how great I look and they ask me for my secrets. I have some that ask me for healthy recipes or tips to their own weight loss. I have gotten some borderline sexual harassment type attention in the office as well (the one or two times I actually wore a dress…

I recently discovered these and am ecstatic that there was a sparkling water out there without any sodium. So excited to try these other flavors. So far, I love the grapefruit. Like the other posters, haven't heard anything about sparkling water inhibiting weight loss. Maybe your coworker is referring to ones with sodium?…

So sorry to hear about your loss. Stay strong through these difficult times. Fellow OC here (born and raised OC and currently in Long Beach). :smile:

Thanks so much, @sabkhan32! The first few months I lost quite a bit. When you dramatically change your habits, the weight comes off easier. After the holidays I struggled a lot and thought I plateaued. Looking back, I'm still losing, just not as rapidly as before. I weight myself daily, so I have a record of every month…
