Grilling up all my bad boys right now. Review to come.

I like the idea of the healthy article but we should all fine our own and then post the links with a quick summary. Kind of like a mini boook report. Then if someone else wants to read more about it, the link will be right there. We can just create one thread for all the limls. Our own little library.

Awesome on the stairs Melissa! I haven't been able to check in all weekend. So busy. Started with a 4yr olds Birthday party at a gymnastics place, then a charity even right after into Sat. Night. Then Sun we got up bright and early and took our friends out to the lake with our jetski. We were all having such a blast until…

So freaking awesome! You are a true inspiration. I am so glad you took the time to sit there and enjoy your accomplishment for a bit..

I get where you are coming from, but I also agree that you don't want your good, positive, healthy new life to be linked in anyway whatsoever to someone who may have "fat shamed" you. I think criticism from our parents hurts the worst. I think if you want to get down to a size 16, you just need to get there without feeling…

So glad to hear the challenge runs thru today. I literally was home for only about 4 hrs all weekend and didnt even get a chance to cook anything, let a lone catus or eggplant. Welp, I guess I know whats for dinner. Lol.

Dang...it cut off. I will have to fix next time Im at a PC.

Best sweet/savory salad I have ever had and first time Ive ordered fish at a restaurant and first time Ive had tuna that wasnt out of a pouch, can or rolled in sushi. Ahi Tuna Spinach and Feta Salad with Dried Cranberries, Slivered Almonds, a Pineapple Pico and Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette on the side. Omg...It was so…

I am so sorry you are having another flare. There has got to be sone relief in your future. I am always amazed and inspired by your positivity. As long as you know it is OK to not be super woman all the time. We love and support you through it all! Ups and downs! Yay Dee! I still owe you a prize. I haven't forgotten. I…

I tell ya what...this is my last shot. I hate to sound like I am doomed to fail because this girl is NOT giving up, but if sonething horrible happens and i gain 80lbs back in 6 months, thats IT. Unfortunately my coworker has 2 more yrs until he can even qualify because he has only been with the state 3 yrs. I just passed 5.

I think i have said this before but my insurance through work requires you to be employed with the state for 5 yrs, then you have to do the year long pre op hoops. Then, if approved, you pay $10k out of pocket and they will pay for 80% after or something like that. Its ridiculous. I told you about the 25 yr old who weighs…

Sexy Mama! Wow, you look fantastic. In your now shots I just kept thinking Im almost in a 20 and no way am I that small! You look so good! I so wish I had some body shots when I was 123 lbs heavier. I never got my picture taken, just my drivers license photo because there was no way out of that. How tall are you? I still…

EXACTLY. I think I have heard of grilling it? I will have to Google.

Not the easy way out at all! I would band this belly in a heartbeat if cost wasnt an issue. 45 mins of sleep. I will go into detail about last night if/when I get some time at work today.

Awesome. I saw that and figured it was you. I cannot believe it has taken me 6 days to even see this post. Freaking work keeping mw from my peeps.

Wow. Makes totally sense. I have absolutely NO patience tho. I will see how well Ibdo in August and if all my hard work doesnt pay off...this sounds like an awesome plan. Lost 50 April-July. July-August: 1. ???? 1 pound.

Hahaha. Too funny. I went in for my monthly weigh/check in and for the first time ever, the skinny little nurse told me ny body fat % ,i was like **** you very much...this is information I did NOT need to know. Grrrr.

Just after I posted this I checked my email and the Universe slipped thru again: Do you know what I really, really, really love, ? The folks who keep doing little things, expecting BIG results, especially when circumstances seem to indicate that tomorrow will pretty much look exactly the same as yesterday. These are the…

ps. The only bad part, im up 4lbs this week from working out. I know its water retention, always happens but dang, its frustrating.

Morning. I went to gym last night. The elliptical and I became one for 65 minutes straight. Kind of a big deal.for me because even at this same weight last year when I first tried it, 5 mins and I had to quit becauae it hurt my legs so bad. Not in a good workout burn but in a ive got to be doing this wrong hurt. Now Im…

:drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

Water jogging. This isn't completely new as I kind of do it when I have the kiddo on my back, but this time I really focused on the time and kept moving. It's freaking HARD.

Zumba!! I still can't dance, but it got me interested enough to try a real class.

**** no! I ATTEMPTED to twerk for 20 mins.. Basically, it was me dancing and getting as low to the ground as possible without falling over and trying to shake my non-existent *kitten*. Yes, you can be fat and have no *kitten*. Still, twerking is new to me so I so counted it!

Your LOCAL market has those? Wow! Dandelion greens... I have juiced them.. :bigsmile: I would totally been in for it. I love me some Whole Foods and would give me a great excuse to go shopping. :heart:

SO small! You look gorgeous!!!!!!!

Karen! I love the new profile picture! So cute. I am definitely not as wrapped up in everyone else's needs as I once was. Before I had my own family, I was worried sick about my immediate family members all the time and tried to take control/charge and do whatever I could (if anything) to help them. I have grown up a lot…

YAY for no pain! I love hearing that Karen! There isn't much fruit/veggies I haven't tried.. Remember, I did a 30 day juice cleanse. I was desperate to try everything since I only allowed myself fruit and veggies. IF we are going to do this, I need to hit up Whole Foods on Friday since it is somewhat close to my work..…

Oh my goodness! Congrats Norah and Zac! Huge accomplishments! Norah...you are getting teeny weenie! I am heading to the.....wait for it............ GYM! Hold your applause.

I have too, but I know exactly why. I upped my cals from 1400 to 1470. I was rarely even hitting the 1400 and I went from that to going right up to 1470. I also started going way over my sodium and eating too much of the wrong foods. I have dropped my cals as of today back down to 1400. I am also not going to eat back my…
