I also feel like my Fitbit tells me I can eat way more that I need to. I try to stick to my 1760 that fitness pal gives me, and that seems to be working. I lost almost 8 pounds in a month doing this.

I'm generally a nervous/anxious person and it comes out in nail bitting. I started the Couch to 5K 4 weeks ago, and i actually have nails! It is a great stress reliever for me! as much as the run kills me some days, I always feel better when I finish

I agree with the c25k app! I was hesitant at first, but I too had dreams of becoming a runner! I just completed week 4 day 1 today which consisted of two 3 minute runs and two 4 minute runs (with walking between) I was pretty proud of myself. Just start slow..I agree with whoever said if you can slow your pace and still be…

i started week 3 yesterday! looking forward to day 2 tomorrow!

I just finished my week 3 day 1 run! Boy 2.5 minutes seems a lot longer than 1.5! But I did it and it felt great. Just keep going!

our 5 year old daughter aspires to be a Zumba teacher..lol she loves doing zumba with me in the basement..i love it! i love watching her interpretation of the moves, makes me giggle, which in turn makes the workout that much more fun.

I also just took up running. I downloaded the C25K app, and try to go to our local high school track to run. I've only done 2 days, but I am impressed with myself! Just keep at it. (thats what I keep telling myself too!)

I'm a stay at home mom with 2 little ones at home all day...I find it difficult to get the 10,000 steps, especially when it is too cold outside to take the kids for a walk..I try to take a few minutes to just do some "high knees" or a slow jog on the spot while we are playing, or while I watch a show when they are napping.…

I used to drink my coffee with sweetner, and then began getting headaches due to the aspartame..so I switched to sugar, since it is "natural". In August I decided to try cutting sugar out of my coffee altogether...and it has stuck. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I drink mine with either a bit of 5% cream, or…

in just under 3 weeks and 6 pounds my size 20 jeans have gone from fitting just right to being boarder line too big...I can't walk up and down stairs very many times before they are sagging way too low!

Amazing job!

Age: 31 Height: 5'4 SW: 250 (this time, after having a baby) CW: 237 GW:160 (thats the lowest I have been in my adult life- I will see when I get there what I think)

All of you ladies give me hope! Ive had three csections in the past 6.5 years..my youngest child is now 15 months old. Im ready to lose this section belly! The funny thing is that I seriously don't remember having it after my other two kids, I know I did, but it didn't stick out or hang quite as much as it does now. I did…

you look fantastic! awesome work!

Awesome job! You look fantastic.

Awesome job! Motivation for me!! I had my third baby in January and am struggling to lose this time!!!

You look fantastic! Congratulations! Keep up the hard work!

I'm a Christian, beyond college age-but you can definitely add me:)

I do the 30 day shred.. The first couple of times will make you hurt, but if you stick with it, it will make you feel good.

I actually got a really good one at Walmart- it is a best form sports bra. Very snug and very comfy, it does the job while I am doing Zumba.

Ugh, my four year old has bronchitis now for the second time since November.

I got Zumba core for the wii for Christmas. I like it. I dont feel like I earn my calories, since I am still learning the moves...but that just comes with practise.

You look great! I started out about where you did, and I'm not really even close to looking like that yet! It's nice to see these stories to see that I can look like that if I work hard!

You look fabulous!

I'm in the same boat! We have two girls, 4.5 and 2. I weigh less now than I did when I got pregnant with both of them, but still way over weight! It's a challenge, but you just have to keep working at it!

I'm 29 and my goal is to get below 200 pounds...

I'm from Ontario too! It is quite cold these days!!!

my mom and dad both use it, and love it. my dad's cholesterol levels are the lowest they have been in years. I have tried it, but I enjoy food too much to replace a whole meal a day with a shake. If I am in a hurry I do make one- they are filling.

The doctor is a pretty respectable doctor in my city- from what I have heard. He is picky, and a perfectionist- which are good qualities in a surgeon. I just don't understand the lipo thing..I have a meeting with my family doctor today- who referred me to the surgeon. I will see what she says about the whole thing. I…

Feel free t add me too! I am 28, mother of two little girls! I also am on my way to an ultimate goal of losing close to 100 pounds.
