One of my really good friends used to drink nothing but Diet Coke. She has neck and shoulder spasms from it. All the time, like she clenches her neck and shoulders up, it happens a few times a day. I guess fom the aspartame she said? So she drink regular coke now LOL Have you tried Zevia? It's made from Stevia, a natural…

PW 150.5 CW 153.0 :( I was really happy last week thinking I was finally going to see the 140's this week. We made a last minute plan to go to Vegas with the kids this weekend and I went off the deep end. It was too hard trying to find somewhere seperate than my family to eat and the places we did eat had NO diet menus, so…

I run a custom cake business out of my home and have for 5 years now. I usually have 5-6 large 2-3 tier cakes I have to bake every week. Yes, I still LOVE cake and yes sometimes its hard. You have to cut the tops off and throw them away, I always used to eat them, didn't want it to go to waste LOL. It's all about…

woohoo 3rd place on my team! :)

Wow, I thought it was going to be so hard to reach 145 pounds in that 12 weeks, I made that goal to push myself. I am only 5.5 pounds away! I only need to lose 1 lb a week to hit it! I have lost more than that each week thus far. I am so happy!! I am going to UP my goal and instead of reaching for 145 I am gong to reach…

PW 152.5 CW 150.5 I tried really hard to lose 2.5 pounds this week to get to 150, and I almost made it, not quite. But her 2 pounds is good enough, and I am happy! Next week I'll finally be in the 140's! I am so excited LOL GO RED!

Just repinned a couple of yours, thanks! Here's mine http://pinterest.com/smanning1982/

I also am doing this to feel better about myself! Before gaining this weight I felt good about myself. I liked to go out dancing with friends, I loved shopping when clothes looked good on me, I loved going to bed at night with the hubby ;) Now, I feel discusting. I won't go out with friends. I hate shopping becuase even an…

I honestly have already eliminated all the junk from my diet. Haven't had a soda in weeks, nor candy or chocolate. Maybe I can make my challenge to ADD something to my diet that I should be eating and I am not? For instance, I literally eat NO fruits. NONE, NEVER, not that I don't like them. I love oranges and…

PW 154.0 CW 152.5 Not the full 2 lbs that my goal is to lose each week, but all in all I am still happy. As long as the scale is going in the right direction for me thats what counts! I am going to try VERY hard this week. I am really hoping to be in the 140's within 2 weeks! Go RED!

Thanks for all your replies, it makes me feel a whole lot better about going to eat out tonight! Now, I definitely don't want to get in the habit of doing that all the time like I used to, but once every 3-4 weeks I think should satisfy my craving for it :)

Okay so I am 5'4 and I weigh now 154, I was 167 at the beginning of the year. I look NOWHERE as good as you! Heck I haven't looked that good since before my 2nd kid, I have 4 kids LOL IF I can get to your before pic I will be walking around practically naked everywhere! Okay not everywhere LOL but I'll be sooo happy, my…

PW 157 CW 154 I was really proud of myself this week. This weekend I went to a bday party where they BBQ'd delicious looking hamburgers, hotdogs had all the fixin's YUM LOL But, I made all 4 kids a plate and didn't have a single bite! Sunday morning I made the family biscuits and gravy (my favorite), eggs and bacon and…

PW 159.0 CW 157.0 I am happy with losing 2 lbs. My goal is 2 lbs a week, as long as I can keep it up I'll be in a bikini by summertime! I did fall off the wagon yesterday and felt absolutely horrible and discusting last night, today's a new day, new week, and thank goodness it's zumba time! I also got myself a HRM sooo…

Great challenge, I've done this last week, I actually try to stop eating after 6pm at dinner, it really helped me and wasn't too hard for me surprisingly, as I used to love having snacks before bed while watching my shows, last night the hubby ate oreos n milk while we watched our show and I wasn't even tempted!

I sent this in as a message but want to post here too now that I know it's here :) Starting weight 165 Today's weight 159 I am really happy to see 6 lbs gone! My family and I went on vacation Friday and Saturday to the Grand Canyon, the hotel we stayed at included an all you can eat buffet for dinner and breakfast! I was…
