9 for starting a new lifestyle this month in joining MFP! Well done on the begining of the rest of your life. :)

5' 5" and goaling for 135. @167 right now. Seems like so far away, but my goal time frame is by end of june. Working my butt off litereally. :)

You will definitly plateau if you don't get enough cals. Your body panics thinking it won't have enough food to make milk, so it stores fat for you, and uses your food consumption for breast milk. The extra cals will help. just remember, calories are energy. As long as you are getting healthy energy (whole wheats,…

I was 188, and he is 185. He is 6' feet tall though and im only 5 5. So it sucked for a while. Now the balance has changed and im lighter. I was feeling so self concious. But he adored me just the same. He just can't keep his hands off my butt now. Yay xtrainer.

How exciting. When I was pregnant i dropped 15 lbs before gaining it back when I was 7 months along. I ended up only 5 pounds heavier than my start weight. It was mostly cause I couldn't eat as much per meal. My body wouldn't let me. Make sure what you do eat is healthy leafy greens, (i ate turkey sandwiches a lot), and if…

This is the goal dress for my 27th birthday (june). Having a night on the town with my bf, and I can't wait. Booked a super fancy hotel, and many great things to do. http://meggieandmonstah.tumblr.com/post/16493995247/i-think-by-summer-after-losing-about-35-45-lbs-i So for some reason i can't post pics. :( its not working.…

Look at your great legs! and your tummy area has come in! you are doing great. Don't get discouraged. You see yourself every day so you don't notice the difference as easy. I am in the same boat. Now is the time people will see you and say how great you look. It will happen, i promise. You are doing wonderful. I would like…

What an awesome job Whitney! You are totally an inspiration and you are doing great!!!. Keep up the motivation, you will reach your goal for sure.!!!

34DD and i love it. My rib cage is slightly curved in, so i can't get much bigger in the band size, unless i gained a lot of weight. Since im losing it, i hope i don't lose the full boobs. I really enjoy them. Shout out to my small boob ladies! Enjoy wearing tops without a bra! I sometimes wish I could. :) either way…

Don't get discouraged if the weight difference isn't there. Remember you are losing fat but building muscle. The inches and tightness and fat % lost is how you can track best. You look AMAZING! you are totally inspiring me to break out my P90X vids more. Totally awesome!!!! Congrats. :wink:

Can't please all the haters all the time. :) hehe side note, Mini hooligan! one tat, 4 leaf clover lower back. Long story. My goal date is my 27th bday june 28th and i have a booked appointment set for my new piece. Can't wait. My sons dad/bf booked it for me for xmas and put down a substantial deposit. I cried when i saw…

So proud of you! You are a tigress and are doing amazing. Love you! xo

I have this problem constantly too on the CrossTrainer. I have tried to adjust everything, shoelaces, stance, position of foot. I have extremely high arches, so it could be a support thing. Good luck figuring out how to fix it. I just push through and it eventually gets better.

You will lose 1/3 more weight when you combine both. Nothing wrong with building lean muscle to help you burn fat. If you don't build lean muscle, when you do cardio your body uses the muscle first for energy. SO by getting your metabolism going with some weights, it will divert your body into using stored fat for energy.…

Right now - Stay at home mom Before baby, and eventually again - Diamondtologist and jewellery sales.

"nothing tastes as good as healthy feels" I see signs for mcdonalds, or pizza and i want to cave and binge on it all. So I say it out loud to myself and it completely helps me not "fall off the wagon" love this topic!

Welcome and you can do it. This is a great tool to utilize. :)

Almonds!! I love snacking on a small handful. No sodium, but the cals are there for the energy. I buy Billy Bee Honey Roasted Almonds. So delish!! And Bananas give you a great boost of energy in the morning, and are absorbed quickly!!

Im kinda newish but have been doing the healthy living regime for 6 weeks now. Happy to lend any motivation!!

I can completely relate to how you don't realize that weight loss and healthy living are really all about using your head, and not fueling your body with crap. Welcome and awesome job on the commiment!

I think I am a bit of both. Depends on my mood. If it is a class, i like to socialize before it begins, and get familiar with my workout buddies. But when I have my focus on, I don't want to be distracted with chit chat. If i wanted to have a conversation, I would have stayed home. :smile:
