Bump for later :-)

Please add me as a friend - i'm 20 pounds away from my goal & am determined to get these pounds off by Spring Break (March 18 - 22) with my two sons!

So sorry for your loss! {{{HUGS!!!}}} i have never dealt with a miscarriage so i definitely won't say i understand your pain :-( i will say that during my 2nd pregnancy my unborn son faced some serious health issues so i do understand that you love that child from the moment of conception. We went through some intensive…

1st of all - good luck on your journey to a healthier body! i started off @ 212 myself & have lost 65 pounds over the last 21 months. Now i have the excess skin below my belly button - but honestly think it's from being pregnant. i'm only 5'2" & had two babies 13 months apart. They weren't big in the grand scheme of babies…

Sending you hugs - i know that this will be hard but try to focus on the great times you had running together. Your precious doggie is looking down on you & will be right there with you in your heart :heart: We lost our chihuahua-daschound (SP?) mix in May of this year at almost 21 y/o - it was my husband's dog when we…

Great Job! Don't get discouraged b/c you look wonderful :flowerforyou:

Bump for later - i need some ideas on this also :-)

i've had a similar situation with my hubby & i really think that men don't understand sometimes how things they say can come across. When my hubby said something to that effect, i told him right away that i didn't appreciate the negativity & that i was doing this for myself to be a healthier person. Bottom line: i don't…

Good for you! Congrats :flowerforyou:

i would suggest a sleep sack - which is basically a blanket without arms that zips up on the baby. They are really cool in that they usually have a zipper that opens from the bottom or top, so you don't have to totally undress the baby for an early morning diaper change :-) i used these with both of my boys (now ages 7 &…

Bump for later :wink:

Bump for later - these recipes look DELICIOUS!

Bump for later!

Don't lose heart! You have got this! i would say also to take into consideration how you feel. i'm not at my goal yet but i know that i FEEL so much better than i did when i started. HUGS! Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like :wink:

Great Job! Having started out @ 212 myself, i totally remember how excited i was when i got below 200 :smile: BTW - you look great & can really see that you've lost weight from the 1st picture! Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like :wink:

i've had the same situation - people ask me what i've done to lose weight & when i tell them that it's exercising & eating right, some have even said, "well i don't want to do that." i want to say Duh! the only way that something is going to change for you in your eating habits & lifestyle is if YOU make a change! It's…

BUMP FOR LATER :-)

Thanks for the hilarious thread - i've enjoyed reading :wink: BTW - Happy Monday!

Hi - i totally understand needing the support & motivation. i definitely have taken advantage of the resources on this site! i sent you a friend request & wish you the best on your fitness journey :-)

i'm in the same boat & have been experimenting recently with morning drinks to answer my need for caffeine in the a.m. without drinking "diet" sodas. i'm not a coffee fan either but found last week that blending a container of chocolate muscle milk (light - 100 calories) in the blender with a mocha cappuccino mix (i use…

Happy Birthday! i'm from Florida (very close to the GA line), so feel free to add me :-)

It seems a bit premature for the doctor to tell you this now. Don't let it discourage you! There are people all over the place that have proven doctors wrong! i would wait and then reassess after you reach your goal. SN: if it becomes a medical issue, your health insurance company would pay for surgery. i know that i have…

i agree that i've run into this same problem since i've been trying to eat healthier. Another option to add protein like to sandwiches & help stay full longer is hummus :-) i LOVE hummus & use it on my sandwiches as a spread instead of mayo (which tastes nasty in my opinion). The sundried tomato hummus seems to enhance the…

That's neat!

i'm 5'3" & started off @ 212, now down to 147ish & have about 15 more lbs to go - feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like :tongue:
