I guessed 2.5% larger, so pretty objective :) Also, came back as hourglass, which is always nice to hear.

Bump to look later. I can't see the pics on this computer, so I'll have to see when I get home. I bet you look fantastic though!

Thanks for the reminder, I need to update mine :) I read somewhere (I think on Scooby's) that you're supposed to adjust your calories after every 5lbs of weight loss. I'd carry that over to the HRM too. Plus it'd be easy to make all your adjustments at once.

I am a member of Plant Fitness, but I don't workout there often because my location does not have the equipment I need to meet my goals. Instead, I end up going to my husband's gym (at the police department) where I can lift and usually have the gym to ourselves. I mainly use PF for the treadmill when it is too hot or…

following to read later.

Last time I wore the dress I have on today, I wore a cardigan buttoned up on top to hide the fact it wasn't zipped all the way. Today? Zipped up all the way. The cardigan is only because it's cold in my office :)

Yurbuds :) They are excellent without having to deal with the ear hooks. I got a pair when they were recommended on here a couple months ago and everytime I've worn them, they haven't fallen out.

Thanks everyone! So much to look at and think about :)

Look into Fertility Awareness Method and the book, "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" (and website: tcoyf.com) I'm pretty new to it, but I'm on my first cycle since stopping hormonal birth control and am loving the results. I was tired of the side effects of the pill and wanted other options. Every other drug or implant…

Velvetta Shells with the cheese pouch...not the powder.

I sewed a sundress a month or so ago. I've already altered it once. I'm wearing it at work today...I need to alter it again.

Cinderella :)

I love chocolate :) I think I'm going to pick some up on my lunch break today. It'll be super dark. I'll take a couple squares and put the rest in the work freezer. Freezing it really helps me (and keeping it away from my desk). I'd have to get up vs mindlessly open my drawer and devour. Then I'll have to wait for it to…

I loved reading you story :) Such a sweet hubby! I am super grateful my husband works out with me. He really does push me to do better (the "it's all you, one more, you got it"). What I love doing is if he gives me a number or reps or laps or something of the sort, to go a little above and beyond. Ex. He wanted 10 reps,…

Clothes I've found to be super helpful during the loss are yoga pants and dresses/skirts. The first things I had to replace (that I didn't have in a smaller size already) were panties. Though, I think I may just run some of the larger ones through the sewing machine and bring in the seams. I've noticed my bras gapping at…

I was engaged to a guy, we had been together for four years, and he left me for his best friend's sister. They were apparently expecting. His loss. He received everything he had ever given to me shredded and smashed in a box on his parent's back porch (yes, the loser still lived at home). Ironically, as I was smashing and…

Would it be possible for her to have the option to walk on grass next to the sidewalk or on trails? It is true that they can develop joint issues due to over exercise (especially on hard surfaces). Most "hard" exercise (running, agility, etc) is put off until 1 to 1 1/2 years (sometimes two years for large breed dogs). I'd…

SW: 188 CW: 166.8 Down 1.2 this week :)

Bought a pair of pants on Sunday. I got them home, went to wear them last night and realized the hanger was a liar! The hanger said Medium, the tag...small. They fit!

I guess I'll switch to just the upper body lifting and maybe some bodyweight squats/wall-sits. What a shame...I was having so much fun! (I did it in the skirt I ended up buying too ;) with the heels lol)

Hard working

It didn't seem to. I went shopping on Saturday and was doing bodyweight squats in the dressing room. LOL I was testing out some workout pants, so it wasn't weird until I tried on some heels at the same time ;)

Maybe try taking an iron supplement?

I'm doing the StrongLifts program. It's fabulous without having to use a lot of different equipment. That's correct. You'll do A one day, rest day, B, rest day, A. Then the next week you'll start on B. Two of the same workout will never be beside eachother. If you have a smartphone, there is a stronglifts app that…

double post

Not intentionally. I just haven't been eating them. The "healthier" bread (Ezekiel) was upsetting my stomach and I don't like most wheat breads. Pasta seems like a pain to make when I get home from work, as do potatoes. We've been eating brown rice though.
