I love my husband because: He puts me first. My needs are always above his needs where he is concerned. He works hard to provide for our family and never complains about it. He is a GREAT dad to our kids. Over the years he's lost LOTS of sleep to make sure he is at their ballgames. (He works 12 hour shifts, usually third…

Congratulations! Your goal weight will arrive before you know it!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!!!! Congratulations on hitting your GW! You mentioned something that I have found true as well. I have to ditch the sugar if I really want to see steady results. Thank you so much for the encouragement!

Awesome story! It made me cry! So glad this man was determined and didn't give up when others said it was impossible. That's a lesson for the rest of us!

What an inspiration to this 47 year old beginning weightlifter! Thanks sooo much for sharing. You encouraged me today.

My mother was that person. Super small and ate whatever she wanted through MOST of her adult life. Then came menopause. I guess her metabolism slowed down. She still isn't big but now has a small "pooch" around the mid-section where she had never had one before. She also has issues with high blood pressure and high…

Check out Nokout. You can go to nokout.com and read about the product. As a woman who lives with 5 males (4 sons and a hubby) this product, hands down, beats anything I've ever tried. It will kill any odor on the face of the planet!

Krispy Kreme is up 130% since January.

Awesome job! Your pics are so inspiring!

I read every single one. Thanks for sharing. So inspiring!

I just turned 47 in March. Please feel free to add me if you like. I've found that it is much harder for me to lose weight now than when I was in my 20s and 30s but it is definitely doable. In the past two years, I've lost 63 pounds.

I've had the same problem for 6 months. I've just started lifting weights 3 times a week in addition to some Jillian Michael's workouts. I'm much more concerned with the measuring tape than the scale though.

You already have some good advice above so I'll just add one more thing. You have 0 on your water consumption each day. I don't know if you're not counting it or you don't drink it. If not, start drinking lots of water.

Sounds wonderful! I'm in NC and we have 2 Aldis in town. I make use of their produce section a lot! Thanks for sharing.

To the OP, I had the same issue with my gym in January. Told the PT I wanted to lift free weights and he told me I didn't need to do that and just needed to work on machines. So I ignored him and found a workout buddy to do the New Rules Of Lifting For Women on my own.

I'll definitely have to try these. Thanks for the recipe.

I'm in the same boat. I've started lifting weights. I've read soooo many articles, books, MFP threads, etc. and most agree that weightlifting is the key to slimming down that mid-section. I've just started the program in the book, The New Rules For Lifting For Women, this week. I'm hoping to see big changes in the near…

My husband and I have been married for 26 years and I am definitely the more traditional housewife, but I prefer it that way. He would let me get a job if I wanted to. I have a college degree and used to be a public school teacher. While my two oldest sons were little, I worked very long hours (no, teachers do not work…

1. I'm left-handed. 2. I carry a gun in my purse. 3, I will not watch horror movies of any kind. 4. My first, middle, and maiden names all have four letters each. 5. I am a certified teacher and I home school my kiddos.

My driver's license from 5 years ago doesn't even look like me. It looks like a totally different person. The one take in 08 makes me look 10 years older than I am now. It's a huge difference. Wish I could share like you did but I can't figure out how to post pics on the community sight even though I've read all the…

You look absolutely amazing, not just small but firm and tone. BTW, I LOVE the bathing suit!

Just turned 47 last month. It has taken me over 2 years to lose 60+ pounds so it is coming off but SLOOOWWWLY.
