Hi! I'm 5'9" and am currently obese. Looking to lose 150 lbs and get down to 175. Not reaching for the stars, just the high end of what's recommended for our height according to my doctor. It's all about baby steps and one day at a time tho, regardless of what your goal is. If I think omg I have to lose 150 lbs I want to…

So I'm modifying my goal yall- 30 lbs by September. I think 40 is a bit out of reach for me and my current situation. Here's hoping I can really stick to my guns this time!

I just wanna say I'm so proud to see so many of us mom's out there trying to do right and be better, healthier for our families. It's so refreshing to have a place to go where you don't feel ashamed and can get support on our weight loss journey. It seems overwhelming sometimes but we are an army of hot mamas, let's do…

I too am a mom and after giving birth to my daughter & 2 accidents and subsequent surgery that left me bedridden for 6 months, I gained alot. Have a short term goal of 40 by Sept and long term goal is 150 lbs! Would love to have a weight loss journey support buddy!

Thank you guys so much for the encouragement! It's been raining for the past three days and I haven't exercised at all. Feeling like poo too because I did so good since I posted and today I went way off the plan, had mini tacos and corn in a cup. I love food so this is hard but I know with support I can do it, I really…

Thank you all for your comments & well wishes! I put September as my goal because 1- husband is taking me on a cruise & 2- something very big could happen shortly thereafter & I want to be as healthy as possible. I'm starting @ a high weight & my end game is to lose a VS Angel worth of weight & then just maintain. Lol I…

This made me literally LOL

We can do this! Kudos for taking the first step and doing something about it! I am 33 y/o, weigh 325 & want to get down to 175. Feel free to add me! Let's bring our sexy back!

Thank you guys so much for the encouragement, it is definitely going to be an uphill battle and I needed that! Losing half my body weight is a journey that sometimes seems impossible but I know I just have to stick with it.

Congratulations on accomplishing your goals and also on what you have in store! I ran track in high school and was in great shape but now after surgery that left me bedridden and childbirth, 15 years later im fat and out of shape. It's hard to start slow (workout 3 days a week for 30 min each) but I'm trying! Because I…

I am eating healthy on a budget but personally am opting for a balanced and clean approach, not completely eliminating any one group, even carbs and fat! :) One of my favorite things for a pre-workout food is a slice of wheat toast w/ creamy peanut butter, banana slices & cinnamon.

2 breakfast options that are good for pre-workout: slice of wheat toast w/ peanut butter, cinnamon & banana OR fruit/Greek yogurt/protein smoothie :smile:

Spaghetti reinvented: spaghetti squash for noodles, meat sauce of ground turkey instead of beef. Served with a side of fresh spinach w/ black olives & artichoke hearts.

Dilly Tuna Salad Lettuce wraps made w/ living lettuce & hard boiled eggs

Churrasco w/ chimichurri sauce, chopped southwestern salad & tostones. (Fried green banana)

That looks great! I love tacos so this is something I def want to try. Thanks for posting!

Wednesday I made this: salmon burgers w/ avocado & grilled pineapple, bacon wrapped asparagus & fresh spinach tossed in balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

I understand how you feel. When I think about the amount of weight I want to lose, it seems impossible and is overwhelming- I mean I want to lose a VS model amount of weight and by most people's standards will still be fat but that's my reality, 175 is my target. We can do this though, we just need to encourage each other…

I have a LONG way to go myself, I want to lose half my body weight! What most people still consider fat is my goal weight- 175. Would love to be friends and encourage each other!
