One other thing that helped me after the birth of my son--yeah, I had "the tire"--I got an old Nordic Track ski machine and used that for about 30-60 min 5 times a week for a few months. It really helped tone my waist area and shape my thighs in just the right areas. I found it helped more than running or any other…

It will change the shape and fat ratio. Remember, it took some time to get where you are. Toning muscles helps by raising your BMI, reducing your fat percentage, and changing your overall shape. Lunges help your legs. Also are you doing the same kinds of HIIT exercises? Changing those up would help as well. If you want a…

Same here--but I get hives on my stomach that last for a couple weeks.

Bump!

I'm 40 now--and due in a month... so I'm not at my goal weight, but will be headed back towards it next month!

When I was little and little brother was smaller he fell into the lake by our house. I screamed and my mom ran down and pulled him out. He was fine--though I don't think he would've tried to swim or climb out. I just remember him floating like a bubble in fetal position with his back toward the water's surface. When I was…

^^Good to know.^^ I also read somewhere HGH helps to slow muscle mass loss.

Aw, good on you for quitting cigarettes! I'm so sorry about your diagnosis. You're still young! I have two friends who've been able to lower, and ultimately get off their diabetes meds by controlling their diet and exercising. Even just walking daily helps! Has your doctor recommended any books? Sugar Busters! is pretty…

Wow! You all look amazing!!!

I have a friend who got pregnant on Ortho Tricyclin Low. When she went to the abortion clinic, the lady at the counter said she'd seen 9 ladies that week who'd gotten pregnant while on that pill. :( No pill worked for me without severe mood swings and/or acne issues. (I normally have very clear skin and am emotionally…

^^This^^ I used to see our wrestling team guys in high school and Jr high train in those before weigh-ins. Why not try HIIT? That's pretty intense and is a good use of time.

My husband and I did a 20 day juice fast--with lots of veggie juices to support protein stores--no solid foods. It was hard for the first week, but it felt great after that. (The urge to eat never really left me.) I eliminated a parasite from my colon (that looked like a huge worm--eeew!). We took Sonne's 7, apple cider…

Wow! You can really tell a difference already! Keep up the great work!!!

Yay! Congrats to you! Not only do you look great, but happy too! :drinker:

Not lately--I'm pregnant, lol! But I've had people tell me that before--people who knew me as bigger--especially if they hadn't seen me in a while. If I'm in a normal weight range for my height then I tell them that and move on with it. Don't let people sabotage your goals because of their perception of you as long as…

I think 800 calories would be good if you're 3 feet tall.

<Kodiak, Alaska girl here! In NYC now though!

It works for me--but I have a hard time not eating at night--my worst time! When I can control my night time eating it really shows on the scale.

I think your exercise looks great! Have you checked out the zig-zag approach? Lots of people on this forum have had great success with it.

I had AAA Junior Olympic times on the swimming team, then gave that up to babysit to make my own money. Wow, hadn't thought about how that sounded until I wrote it out.
