I share your sentiments on your positive thought for the week. If I hear “what can I do to bring up my grade”...one more time, I’m going to implode!

Lol!!! Too late! Plus my children would question me to death.

Lol!!! I’m addicted to candy. I have no plans but to just take it day by day. I’m open to suggestions.

Why did you change your goal?

What is bone broth for? Benefits? I see A LOT of people that eat/drink it. Also, I’ve been focusing on my arms lately too. I want some GUNS!!! Lol!

YOU’RE NEARLY TO YOUR GOAL! Yay!!! I hope you feel better soon.

Challenge Start Weight: 142.3 lbs Challenge Goal: 135.0 lbs Week 1: 139.3 lbs Week 2: 140.5 lbs Week 3: 142.4 lbs Week 4: 141.1 lbs I honesty had a horrible weekend that blurred my week. My birthday is one month from today and I’m feeling so down. So many things I wanted to have accomplished by now....first it was by 25,…

So my dr who delivered my son....while she was my dr she was overweight. Saw her for my 6 wks check and she was overweight. When I went back the following year to see her for my annual she no joke looked like an entirely different person. She was already pretty but she looked both healthy and pretty. She said she lost over…

No advice about the anxiety eating just wanted to tell you you’re not alone. Instead of me eating though I get BAD headaches. I realize at some point last year they were anxiety related by truly observing that after the “event” the headache leaves.

Before you go see a GOOD chiropractor though since you are a newborn mom and a mom of a less then 2 year old I say focus on those things first.

Workout before work, at lunch or after work OR change what you are eating OR .... BOTH

I need to focus on this. I haven’t drank water at all today....just coffee coffe and more coffee :s

Tell me more about these black beans!!! Oh and don’t worry ... ups and downs happen. You’ll be back down next week.

Of course it’s heathy because it’s yummy. I’ll let you know when I try them. Thank you!

Uhhhhhh please share that egg breakfast recipe ASAP!!! Please and thank you. Congrats on the weight loss!

I’ve heard so much about this Oui....what does it taste like? If we had a contest I’m sure I would win on candy eating. Lol!!!

Challenge Start Weight: 142.3 lbs Challenge Goal: 135.0 lbs Week 1: 139.3 lbs Week 2: 140.5 lbs So last week I lifted Sunday, Tuesday and Friday and I ran Monday and Wednesday. Thursday was rest day. I got 5 miles in on Wednesday which felt great. I think the only “bad” thing I ate was a cheesecake filled donut oh and the…

So today I completed 5X5 of 100 lb squats with the barbell. I’m pretty darn proud of it. I’m not even sore, not yet anyway.

Hi! What are you studying in school?

Challenge Start Weight: 142.3 lbs Challenge Goal: 135.0 lbs Week 1: 139.3 lbs So I’m going to ramble throughout this challenge so bare with me. I noticed this week that when I’m hungry, legitimately hungry I mean, then I start eating all the things and snacking. So I’m making it a point now to eat REAL meals to reduce my…

:D

Aggressive is GOOD!

What kinds of tea do you drink?

THANK YOU CAROL! You’re too kind. Lol! I’m currently trying to find a better balance with all my responsibilities though.

Hey ladies! Here are my summer stats: June 1st - 136.9 lbs July 1st - 137.8 lbs (+0.9) Aug 1st - 137.3 lbs (-0.5) Sept 1st - 137.8 lbs (+0.5) So, a bit of history : I have been doing Strong Lifts for 9 weeks now. It’s a progressive lifting program for those of you who aren’t familiar. It includes 5 basic lifts - squats,…

Do not wait to start to get buff. You should have strength training to your routine now and eat at maintenance. You well lose weight over time and change the shape of your body.

Lol I used to like I was 5’7”. It happens. So I’m trying to get down to your current weight and I’m two inches taller than you. I have 9/10 lbs to go though. Bummer.
