I'm so happy so many people are on this thread encouraging one another by saying "I'm right there too---help!!!". I ate a donut this morning. That sucked because I knew it was bad for me. Sometimes we need friends to be honest to and say hello help me I screwed up! Or lets go do this thing together because we all can make…

There are so many reasons why I am completely moved by all of you. You are all being honest and real with your journey and know how hard it will be and how much we all need each other. THAT will help us all get on the right path. Don't forget to be encouraging to each other--send messages, make posts, don't just blindly…

Thank you EVERYONE for responding!!!! I love the new friends and am so thankful that @Fitness_voyager spoke up and started the thread going again. I was feeling myself slowly start to roll down the slippery slope. This stopped me. Made me grab at a branch and so, ok, NO. There is a reason why I reached out for help and…

@janejellyroll no, I haven't used a clear face sunscreen yet. I know people always say to use it, but I only generally put it on when I head to the beach for a long day (sunday). I def didn't think the break outs would continue into my 30s either :neutral: In fact, I looked forward to getting older so the breakouts would…
-
I did put sunscreen on my face on Sunday. Maybe that is what did it! Thank you @janejellyroll and LOL at your name. So silly. haha :smiley:
-
I do really really want it. A couple days ago, I was eating tons of cake and super depressed and crying about how much I suck. LOL My spirit is high because I chose to get up and not give up for good. Gotta get after it with everything I have and stop giving up a quarter or half way there!!! I think that is when the…

Wow you both are beasts!!!! Good job! So wonderful seeing that others have done the hard work to make it happen. If you can, I can! Thanks, ladies! Lets get at these pounds! @aippolito1 @Arual99

I don't know how to do it yet, but I'm certainly going to try as hard as I can @kittgrace ! Let's be friends and motivate each other to be self-controlled and motivated by our desire to be more healthy!

Amazing job on your weight loss journey @happymom83! So inspiring! I was born in 83 as well :wink:
-
@Heulitt26 wow, good job losing those 24lbs! My littlest ones are almost 3 and 16mo! I've been tearing my hair out a little bit, but I know I can lose this weight---just have to get them involved! :) Glad we are new friends! @MeAgain2011 Sounds like a plan! We can do it! @adreal I know what it's like to have kiddos far…

Ok @carnesm I've got your back! Send me a request! @vera145 I hear you on that!!! So hard, isn't it? I feel like it is harder to hate how I look though, so time to do something about it! @losttrucker68 yes we can! keep working at it and I will too! @chastity6 It is SO hard to not turn to food, isn't it??? I have a friend…
-
@shakeirawhitney I will do that! Thanks so much! @Mrsb10305 it is so tough isn't it! The number seems daunting, but my sister in law just lost 63lbs in 9mo. If she can WE can!!!! And yes, my husband kind of gets tired of hearing how much I'm going to do this thing only to never actually do it. It is hard, but we all can…

Friend requests have been sent! @ashdcourt @keishanapier :smile:
-
Thank you! I did them all at once! It was very very very hard, but it's doable. Often I"d take a couple second break between sets of 100 or so. Good luck!
-
I emotionally eat as well. Here is just a general life lesson I am LEARNING as I continue to battle my emotional eating demons. "Feelings aren't facts" The way I'm feeling often affects the facts of how hard I have been working. Something will snap in my brain and all of the donuts, slurpees, cakes, chocolates, everything…
-
Thank you for taking time to say that. Appreciated much! <3
-
I found it in the organic/natural section of my local Kroger but I'm sure it can be found online as well! Justin's Maple Almond Butter is also amazing and only 3g of sugar :)
-
My bum is still sore from this challenge!!!!! Ouchie!!! My squat challenge started with day 1 = 50 squats and so on. 3 days on 1 day off (which I've heard is a great rule of thumb anyways. Day 30 = 250 squats. There are squat challenges that have fewer squats done each day with a lower maximum number and those would…
-
^^^^^^^ Thank You!!!!!!!!! ^^^^^^^^^ I am not scared of it, I don't have access to it right now. I'm also not ready for it. I will be someday and probably in the next few months or so. Everyone is at different stages in their journey and this is no easy challenge. It was very very hard and I am extremely proud of my…
-
Wonderful!!! I am doing the 30 day Ab challenge this month as well! :) Also working on arms this month and getting my cardio in PLUS eating clean for 30 days. Aaah! :) Will be posting results of that as well. Lifting is great. I highly approve of it. But, if you can't get to the gym (like me, pfft, it's pretty impossible…
-
Once I got up to maybe 100 or 120, I would take a small break, shake my legs out and then start again. The only other exercise I did was walking, a couple days here and there of legs lifts, but I really was not focused on anything else during the month of May other than doing squats! I did not do them with weights and…
