Im.....very close....to setting my Garmin to log a "run". I have been running for well over a year but at a veryyyyyyy slow pace. Mentally I could not bring myself to set my Garmin to log a run activity ...so strange. Anyways I signed up for a 12K for June 8th and I took a maiden voyage through the course last night using…

Besides Rod Stewart's main squeeze you mean? Well, I always wanted to be a school teacher. Life choices led me into the business world which I regret most every. single. day. BOO

Well done indeed! Happy living!

Great words!

Detailed logging / maintain a deficit for the week. Just one week.. Just one. ugh

Had a binge of sorts last night after work so I headed out the door at 8:30 pm stuffed did an interval walk/run to the gym (5 miles) and then did my 5X5. Was feeling sluggish and did not feel motivated whilst there but I got myself there and the fresh air on the way to the gym was life giving. New day today. The NSV was…

over 80 pounds gone with 30 more to go and that damn belly is still there... ugh and boo BUT!!!!! I know this too shall pass so I keep on keepin on!!!!

Packing for a weekend in Vegas and got a little weepy....no longer worrying about having shirts that cover my ars. and in went the little black dress with no body shaper that makes me blue in the face when I sit down. The hits keep coming!

had a whippersnapper at the gym the other night look me right in the eye and say "shouldnt you be home baking cookies"...backstory: it was 11 pm....I looked like shizza but had to get my lifts in. He and his buddy were monopolizing the lat pull down so I said...I am going to work in with you two, if thats okay. Then he…

harsh reality..... the bright side is you can quit wasting your time reading the articles that say "lose your flabby "insert body part" with this simple exercise..... at least I have saved a bunch of time.

Great post

Excellent insight and it articulates well exactly how I feel too. Thank you. I have printed your post and included it my journal I keep. Resonates with alot of folks and for good reason. Keep on keeping on.

Sounds like this is your time! Loving ourselves enough to see this through is the best part. Glad for you as you discover your strength and unleash that girl inside!!!! Have fun too!

I try to use the entries that have the GREEN checkmark as I understand those to be confirmed.......

This is great! Revel in it !!!!! So many fun suprises happen on this journey as we are freed from the weight!!! THis was a very fun example of that!!!!

Just waved good bye to the 190's (187.4 as of this morning) sooooo my next mini goal is 184 by my b-day in September!

Loaded my pickup with yard waste which included large cement blocks and headed to the landfill. When I backed in and put the tailgate down the young men next to me saw the cement pieces and one said "let me give you had with those". I just smiled at him and said no thanks I got it. I picked up the first piece and launched…

1. Food prep this week and 2. Stay in macros

It is indeed a victory and should record it as one every time you overcome or narrow the damage....keep up the good fight....that life giving fight!!!!!

7/26/18 - 209 - slowly moving in the right direction. Lifting numbers still going up. Getting most of the workouts in. Logging all the food - looks like I should lower the calorie target just a bit. [/quote] Hey Steve! This is is the quandry I also had when my weight loss stalled...it also happened when I made gains in the…

When you become 53 years old as a woman, you become invisible....and when you are heavy and 53 .... you are screwed....seriously.... at least this is my experience. I want my outside to match how strong I am in this world....

A life liver indeed! Not a someday wisher......congratulations to you! Very inspirational!

Such hard work paying off. It always warms my heart soooooo much when I see a young person like yourself, taking control of the amazing equipment that is our body! Congratulations on your hard work then and the fun of reaping the rewards of such hard work. Amazingly inspirationational! From an old lady who wishes she would…

Didnt check in last week. Weighed today: 190.8. So up .8 since July 1. I am resolved. My food is prepped for the weekend. Cheers all!
