If someone finds a prayer offensive, they can just keep on scrolling it's a choice to read it, it's a choice to comment........thank you for your prayer. I'm in agreement with you today, jargill!

I have a 7 month old who rises with the sun.....and I rise with him. We typically go on walks or hikes that early because I work full time too! I have never been slim even when I wasn't a mom. I think the most important thing is to feed your body good food and move your body. :) The weight will come off eventually.

I have had the same thing happen to me this week. I started tracking all my food and exercise for the last 4 weeks. I lost 6 lbs in those four weeks and seemingly overnight I gained 5 back. I was super upset with myself as well, except after digging on here it dawned on me my cycle is about to start. Don't lose momentum,…

I'm just seeing this phenomenon. I started my journey right after my period ended. I went down to 214, I was getting super stoked. Fast forward 3 1/2 weeks to this week and I'm back up to 219!!! Super pissed, but I expect my period to start soon. I'm going to just keep plugging away and hope it's water weight like my hubby…

Feeling discouraged; I started my journey four weeks ago. My starting weight at my doctor was 231. I now weigh 219. Last week I got down to 214 and I was excited with the progress. I am watching my calorie intake and aiming to exercise at least four times per week. I have 7 kids (one has flown the nest). Finding time to…

I have been consciously on this going on three weeks. Nutrition is the biggest concern to me. I have come to realize that in my mid thirties, I can't just have what I want. My teeth are crumbling because I am not getting proper nutrition. I'd say really FOCUS on your nutrition, and see if you can't just go for a walk for…

You can do anything you set your mind to. Every journey begins by taking that first step. Glad you're here. You got this!!!

I don't have any pictures, but I have a sunflower on my hip. It has stretched with my body 4 times through pregnancy. I do not have stretch marks from pregnancy, but I have noticed it has bled a little as tattoos tend to do when they age.

Usually cravings are a sign that you're lacking something in your diet. Many women crave chocolate, which indicates a deficiency in magnesium. You can find magnesium in green leafy things like spinach. :) I'll bet popeye never craves chocolate! LOL I keep working out as normal during my cycle. I have found it eases cramps…

I'm a mommy of six kids---five boys, one girl. Aged 13 to 7 months. I'm done having babies! My last three boys were all 10 pounds at birth and it did a number on my body. I'm looking for mom friends to help motivate me and push me to find a half an hour daily for exercise. I have at least 50 pounds to lose which would put…

Thanks for the daily dose of inspiration! You look amazing, like a whole different person. Keep up the great work!

You are who I want to be! I'm currently 5'8", 225. I'm looking to start with losing 50 pounds. Thanks for the inspiration!!!!

Thanks for sharing! I'm three days in, and feeling defeated. How come weight can't come off as fast as we put it on? :) Thank you for sharing! You look gorgeous!
