British gal living in Switzerland! Where are you in Switzerland Flynnfinn?

Yess!

Ha!

Agreed!

Nice!

Same! Up to last year I was always thinner than both my sisters... Now they are both thinner than me. Yep, I'm married and a mother now and they are not, but I don't want excuses.

Awesome!!!

Thanks for sharing your stories. This is so good to recap what we are all doing it for! Keep it up everyone, whatever your reason don't lose sight of it!

So glad I'm not the only vain one!

Well done on your hard work! You look fantastic!

Completely agree. It's mostly only in Northern American that you can get free refills. All of Europe you pay for what you drink. The government is only trying to take steps to encourage healthier lifestyles but you can still drink your litres of coke if you like. Let's not forget it's not a fundamental human right to get…

Hi Crystal, and welcome to mfp! How about trying some workout videos online? You can find a lot of free stuff if you look. For example on www.bodyrock.tv. I have done some of those workouts. My baby loves it when I do Zumba workouts, she laughs and tries to join in :) Good luck!

White rice has been associated with type two diabetes. There are several studies to suggest that, which you can google. Gives your body sugar spikes just like sweets.

I am starting today! March 26th. I like starting new things on a Monday! Wish me luck!

Did you read the original post? None of these are investments :)

In reply to your question, I use the HRM every time I do cardio exercise as it allows me to train in the right zone for weight loss, and to do interval training with accuracy. I also love to see the progress I make e.g. With less effort can go further or longer.

In a healthy marriage part of what you do and who you are is for the other person, so why shouldn't they share be able to share what attracts them? My husband makes no secret of the fact that he is delighted that I am losing weight. I'm glad he can be honest with me, and I take it as a motivator, not an insult.

Hmmm. You gonna base that on one guess or you've had other good guesses????

Yep!

Hi Pinkstarr, nice to meet you. I had exactly the same experience, put on about 44lb during pregnancy and lost the first 20lb in the first month and nothing since! I stopped breastfeeding at 5 months but didn't notice a difference in weight. It definately didnt't help me burn calories though like many people say! I'm on…

Hi ladies, and thanks so much for your replies! I already feel less alone! My hubby bought me an elliptical /cross trainer in the January sales so I have been working out on that for about 3 weeks, 5 times a week for 30 to 50 minutes but I was eating normally too and wasn't losing any weight at all. So I'm now counting…

I would love to join this challenge! How does it work?
