Yay !!!! You look great!!! Keep it up:)

i had spotting when i worked out as well. Turned out i had a cyst on the opening of my cervix - DONT PANIC! Cysts are ok..it's not cancer, it's just annoying. Had a good ole fashioned scraping out (i referred to it as a lube, oil and filter..made the gyno laugh so hard he had to put down the wand thingy).. Good as new now:)

this post made me cry. i just ..feel the same way. anyone who wants to add me, feel free. xo

Hi there, I was wondering if I could try joining again? I'd love to be part of the challenge - i loved the support last time and really missed it over the winter (when i couldn't join). Please let me know! thank you! Lisa

120lbs?? holy crap. and here i was all intimidated by the 22lbs i hoist up on my shoulders for squats. *Gulp*. Thank you all for your thoughts and opinions on this. I guess i'm not a heavy lifter ..or a lifter..but I think i'll stick to it as i am in no way ready to go to the Weight Lifting side of the gym yet. Hell, I…

today, protein shake with skim milk at 6:30 am. when i got to work and settled in (around 9 am) i had a coffee with double milk and a chobani greek pomagranate yogurt. that's a usual routine..sometimes, though rarely, i will have cereal, milk and berries...I long to be organized enough to cook up healthy pancakes for a to…

omg. I am SUCH AN IDIOT. in small print, under the recipe on the box..is the per serving NI. I just had to measure out 4 servings. thank you for your help. So sorry to have wasted your time!

thanks! but what if i already put it all together?? its impossible to know how many cups of cooked quinoa i have right?

thanks so much for the inspiration and good for you!!!

i broke up with my scale (aka the Bi-Polar Lover) 2 weeks ago. I gotta admit this week is super hard - i *think* i'm doing great food/work out wise but things aren't a whole lot looser so part of me is like "oh just pull him out of the dark closet you have him in and give in just once". thing is- eating healthy and…

i want that. the forbidden sold me ;)

thanks for "weighing in" (hehehe i slay me)..:)

So, since i"m shunning the scale for a few weeks (due to a panic inducing first week check in and gaining FIVE POUNDS!) and since my tummy is super bloated (and has been for about a week ) so all my clothes are too tight I have been desperate to find any kind of NSV possible. A few days ago it was not having my usual "i…

you are SO very brave..and SO very very smart!! good for you!!

yep..5'2 here, 220 lbs, 43 yrs old pump will register anywhere between 350-530 ib my hRM before that i just logged it as circuit training :)

it's interesting that you point that out..the eyes lying. when i see a picture of myself i'm always shocked and horrified. BUT..then there is real life situations..ie this woman in my office building who wears thin black leggings, and really shouldn't. Or, hey if she is comfortable with her body, fine, but lets wear…

that is SO great!! thanks for sticking to it and sharing that it IS working! xo

how freaky is this? i just blogged about putting away my scale around the same time you posted this! thanks for the shot in the arm that i'm doing the right thing!! xo

I have the same issue (huge upper belly!). Pilates and weight loss yoga(i use the dvd) SEEMS to be helping..but i know its not spot specific. I figure it can't hurt - building up a strong core will help in all sorts of ways! Congrats on your losses so far!!

i have vowed to read this every day for the next 4 weeks. Mostly because this morning I weighed in 6 ..yes 6 !!! pounds heavier than friday. Friday i started eating 1600-1800 a day (instead of 1400-1500) AND have been to 2 weight lifting classes and one cardio AND started walking at lunch. The 6lb gain makes me 2lbs…

thanks so much for all your replies!! i actually have been sitting on this and seriously pondering it all. Now i have to go grocery shopping lol!! i need MORE FOOD! thanks again:)

bump to re-read every week! thank you!

Hi there, i'm tiptoeing into this with a flicker of hope...who knows..maybe THIS is what i've been doing wrong all these years. I do have one question though..you all seem to have already lost a significant amount of weight doing the 1200 calorie plan..with over 80lbs to lose, is this for me as well?? I have a million…

hi there.. so i just did the calculations for myself and was shocked at how high it was!! so then i tested it with your info and again - wow, much higher!! maybe someone can take a look at both of them and tell me what they think? Me: (Lisa) weight in kg - 98 height in cm - 158 age 43 work out 2-3 times a week in a fitness…

you look amazing!!! fyi - you in your before shots are gorgeous - seriously. In your after shots HOT!! i love the NSV re the wicked hoodie - my favorite show..only i didn't have the nerve to buy the hoodie :( Can't wait to see what else you do good for you! thanks for sharing:) Lisa

study NOW. go to the gym as soon as you can. really..just go to the gym..get there. You'll feel better about yourself which will help with your test tomorrow! good luck!! You. Can. Do. This.

yay! we have two pages now!! welcome to the new ones! crazy week here..busy and rushing - hubby was out of town and oy! i forgot what its like to be a single mom! and for some odd reason i gained 2 whole freaking pounds!! i don't get it. i mean i know i didn't do GREAT but i when i look back i didn't do THAT bad either!…

Thank you thank you thank you. A fellow sarcastic *****. I love my MFP support, I really do. However I actually got a "good job" over a 2lb gain this week. Please add me. Know I will hound you over bad choices and grin and virtually punch you in the arm over accomplishments. I expect the same from you. Since I am imaginary…

that's AWESOME!! i'm sorry you are kind of lonely wherever you are..but am thrilled you came here to share your victory!! don't forget to look at yourself in the mirror and pat your own back with a huge assed grin on your face!!!!

Well, yesterday was an epic fail for me. I got in 60 squats (ok that bathroom idea was great!). didn't come close to my water goal, didn't make it to the gym, and had food court chinese food for dinner. today i will ROCK this. here i go!!
