I'm in

I know what you mean. I spent a couple of years tracking my calories and exercise diligently for a couple of weeks and then just giving up for a month or so. I GAINED weight doing that. This year my weight was the highest it has ever been and it suddenly wasn't about my weight anymore. It was about how unhealthy I was. I…

An adjustable bra sounds amazing! I've been wearing a decent Champion sports bra but I know it's going to be too big in no time.

There was one week that I was super diligent with tracking my calories and exercised quite a bit more, hoping to see a big enough number to see my first 20lb landmark. I didn't lose ANY weight that week. I freaked out. A friend of mine pointed out that I had been stressing over it all week and it couldn't have helped my…

Ignore it. If you eat the amount of fruits you NEED to eat every day, you're going to go over the "sugars" that MFP tracks no matter what.

The 5K I just did was Color Me Rad and it was the same premise. SO much fun! I wore a white shirt and I'm following the directions on the site to keep the paint they plastered it with on there permanently. You will have so much fun!

Mine too! Too bad they don't grow down here. I have two daughters 9 and 10. I just recently did a 5K (which I admit I half walked, half jogged), and now they want to start going on walks with me. They're little skinny things, and they know it...but they like the idea of being healthy...which is kind of awesome! How many…

I started my weight loss journey with 101 lbs to lose, and I still have 74 lbs to go. I'm all about encouraging others and sharing little tips I see.

Hi, Jessica! I'm Audrey and I live in humid, yucky Florida too! You have already come so far...over 100 lbs lost! I'm sure you're going to see a 1 at the beginning of your weight in no time. Good luck!

I wondered if you'd find my post. Yay! I will totally blame you for any time magically sucked away here. :P

You don't just look thinner...you really GLOW in those last few pics. I can see the happiness all over that face! Congrats! And, you're right. It is a lifestyle change.

I miss coffee...I've even thought to myself "I could just get decaffeinated and put almond milk and stevia in there...." But, I know, the moment I do I'll be back to binging on Vente Caramel Macchiatos.

You've got this!

I'm so honored! Us short girls gotta stick together!

I haven't thought that much about it. Probably whisk my husband away for a romantic vacation.

Short girls do rock!

Sounds like a great challenge! Is there a timeline?

Thanks! I appreciate the support!
