I added myself to the spreadsheet. I just started a page on Facebook and I am running challenges there as well. :) Gonna be fun to keep up with is all! and very motivational!

Hi! I just turned 30 in January. I'm single mom to 2 kids and I have struggled with my weight up and down as long as I can remember. I have finally decided to stop making excuses and get off my butt to make the necessary changes. I am active on MFP with an open diary and workout at least 5 days per week, so feel free to…

Best feeling for me is when I'm dripping in sweat and the following day when my muscles are sore. It reminds me that this is a marathon and not a sprint and in the end of it all, I did it and it was worth it.

Woohoo! I know this feeling all too well! I started at 305 lbs. and weighed in last at 285! It is a motivating feeling if nothing else! Good luck on your journey!

I'm 30 and a great motivator! Feel free to add me.

Challenge Accepted!

Being told I'm sexy by someone completely unexpected was definitely a WOW moment for me. The best one was being told that I am a great mother.

It's funny. After my shower this morning, I wrapped myself in the towel and thought about how good it will feel when I can wrap the towel all the way around without anything showing! A great victory indeed! I'm almost there too... another couple of inches!

I make a mocha protein shake. You get your coffee and protein all in one shot! I drink this every morning One scoop chocolate protein powder 1 cup cold brewed coffee (I use half caf) 2 tbs. half and half (any kind - regular, fat free) I also use one packet of pink artificial sweetener (that's to your liking though) I tried…
