I just wanted to say Congratulations on losing nearly ten pounds! That is actually a fantastic loss for only 6-7 weeks! I would be willing to bet that your measurements have gone down! Also, there are many theories on the proper way to lose weight but most people I am friends with use the TDEE - 20% method. They don't eat…

I love coconut water for exactly the reason you mentioned. I find it to be extremely hydrating and I enjoy it after bouts with my treadmill or exercising in the heat. I wouldn't worry about the sugar content much. I think my coconut water has 90 calories but I can live with that. You sound like an active person who can…

You look fabulous, good going! Thanks for sharing your photos and motivating so many of us :flowerforyou: Keep up your hard work, it suits you well !

Wow, you look great! Congratulations! :flowerforyou:

I am bumping my new friend up for a little more exposure tonight! :flowerforyou:

Wow, good for you!!! You look fantastic, it's evident that you are working hard and the fact that it's all from clean eating is to be congratulated! Thank you for sharing your photos and inspiring us tonight! Keep up the hard work and best wishes on the rest of your fitness journey!

You look sensational! Thank you for sharing your photos and story with us :flowerforyou: Congratulations on greeting 30 with confidence and continued success! Your adorable little guy is lucky to have a mommy that cares so much for him as well as herself :-) Keep up the good work!

I love my Ft7!!! "Heart Rate Monitors USA" has a good comparison sheet for the Polar HRMs. I thought the Ft4 and the Ft7 were pretty close in price so I went with the Ft7 because it had a couple more options that I thought would be helpful. I am thrilled with the purchase! Good luck shopping, you will love which ever model…

Congratulations, you look fantastic! It's evident that you've really worked hard! Thank you for sharing your success, you've inspired me today :-) Keep up the hard work!

I just received my Polar Ft7 and have used it faithfully all week! I LOVE it! Cardio is so much more fun because I'm so excited to see what I burned :-) I was very happily surprised that I've had nice high calorie burns but I'm sure that will change as I become more fit and lean. Right now, my heart is beating like crazy…

First off... you look fabulous, Congratulations! If you are looking to tone up more, the 30DS is a good one. However, lifting can do amazing things for your body in the transformation area. If I were you, I think I would incorporate both! I would do 30DS first and do weight training afterward. It would be a nice way to…

The same obvi!

I didn't actually view the link but I will share something that I found very beneficial from my physical therapist. She told me this: "If you could only do one exercise for the rest of your life, it should be SQUATS... hands down! You should do a minimum of 10 a day." She said "if everybody did squats everyday their…

Wow, fantastic job! It gives a lot of hope to some of that want a major transformation and imagine it will take SOOOOOO long! Thanks for sharing! Oh, and as far as the belly button comment... I too had an outie when my stomach was huge with baby but once I had my little bundle it sucked right back in! Good for you (and…

I just love to read your posts and see your photos Joy! You continually inspire so many people! I'm glad to have MFP and meet so many focused, positive, healthy individuals! Keep up the good work!

Hi Jen! Welcome to MFP, you have found a great tool to assist you in your achieving your goals. I am not currently on a running schedule but like you, my hope is that I will be running in the somewhat near future! I just wanted to congratulate you for taking the step toward a healthier, happier you! Best wishes in your…

Something like this happened to me when I was pregnant. It disappeared in a short time after I had my little guy.

Yes... proud to be!

Nicely said ladies! You have to start somewhere, right?!

I track a few of my consistent meals/ drinks on my ipod right when I am trying to wake up in the a.m. That way I have already logged in for the day! I am always busy during school so I when I get home from work, I grab my ipod and enter whatever I ate at work. Once I see where I stand for the day... I decide what I will do…

That is so awesome and inspiring, congratulations!!! Be very proud, you've earned it!

I will be 41 soon but I don't believe it's ever too late to get healthy regardless of age! I have seen some amazing transformations of women much older than us who are in the best shape of their lives! I am extremely optimistic and I love this site! Ladies, feel free to add me if you would like a positive attitude on board…

Wow!!! Congratulations on your hard work paying off! Thank you for sharing the link as well!

Ha ha! Now there's an idea I hadn't thought of, Lol!

I hear that a lot from others but it's not always the case. When I am in pain, the only thing that helps is a couple visits to the chiropractor. I can go months without further problems after an adjustment or two. I'm sure that some are more qualified than others but... I think that's the case with any profession. Besides,…

It's stunning! You look gorgeous :-) Congratulations, enjoy your special day! :flowerforyou:
