Uggh, the hangover. I'm married so this is actually pretty accurate. Haha!!

*kitten*! I've lost a newborn calf...haha, I don't know if that makes me feel better or worse. ;-) Headed towards losing the amount of trash you throw away in a month. Which I don't really like that visual either. lol

Yup, everyday single day. <humbled> I'm starting to consider myself an athlete again, so whether I'm on the field or not; I have to be very active everyday. I have a dozen or so workouts that I rotate depending on crazy schedules but have 'mostly-always' needed to burn off my extra energy. It gives my mind the much needed…

WOW chica, I am so impressed!! Your results are amazing!! I know I said this on your wall post, but so many people set out to do this challenge and VERY FEW actually finish! I think in my Dec challenge, we had over 150 people start and only 8-9 actually stuck it out. So, I applaude you...it's not easy that's for sure! Even…

Congrats to those who posted before me and shared their pics!! Ok, I'll play...I'm 5' 6" and started at 255.2 lbs, a tight size 20 back in Mar 2011. I'm currently 166.6 lbs and in a comfy <almost too loose> size 10...working my way down to 135 by this summer. I hope I get these pictures right, only my second time. Before:…

I am a sushi addict and usually opt for sashimi. However, if you ask 'nicely' <aka wink/smile> they will make ANY roll wrapped in cucumber, sans the rice. ;o)

Hey there! I just thought of this...if we are open to 'any excercise'...I started a group called Sunny Days Move Your *kitten* Challenge when I suddenly went from 0 friends to over 100 after I made a post on the forums, as a way to get to know my friends better. ;o) So many people messaged me about 'how to' that I felt I…

Mrfatlegs: killer guns aka sense of humor. Haha great profile though, you look adorable!

I agree, I think everyone with ANY weightloss goals can benefit from this. I LOVE the SMART acronym too!! Thank you for taking the time to post this!
-
I would LOVE to do another challenge! I took it very serious for accountability and noticed some others did too! I have been doing the Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism JM DVD and really like it! I have most of JM's videos and I just got the Biggest Loser Boot Camp 6 week video that I can't wait to try. However, I am up for any…

Hey girl, I totally 'get it'. Weight loss...this is a super hard physical journey but more so for me, a mental battle. I started at 255.2, so I had a LOT to lose...I also had a LOT of expectations. Rationally, my brain knows that it's going to take time, but damn all the hard work everyday and no miracle pill (ha!) it can…
-
I know it's easier said than done, however try not to weigh too often...maybe 1x week and take measurements monthly. You won't see drastic changes in just a few weeks even though it feels like you've made drastic changes. I've consistently lost for 10 months and dropped almost 150 inches! Some months were so much slower on…

Nice work lady! You have certainly put in the hard work, determination and success is yours friend! I'm so glad to have you on my team, I am motivated by you every day! Cheers to 2012...oh and look out beach body summer...you are so on your way!! \ o / 0 / \ me cheering you on, haha!
-
That was hilarious!! My husband and I were just talking about this...well not your pub crawl, but our own socials. Anyway...we always aire on the side of sharp, put together, classy...dressed up. I mean the worst thing that can happen is: you are the best dressed person there. And that never feels wrong! But yes...maybe…
-
Way to go David!! I know that feeling exactly!! And...btw, once you have built your new habits (excercising for 30 min/day) try to let go of that guilt. Here's what I strive for in food and excercise: try to be 90% perfect and the other 10% is just life. I know this for sure: I didn't get fat by doing the right thing…
-
Hey Chica...my 1st round. I think it would be better to compare 60-90 days when you are strength training though, so I'm gonna stick with it and keep going. I just bought Burn Fat, Boost Metabolism (or something like that) so I'm gonna give that a go. ;o)
-
Really inspiring, you look fabulous!! What a great 40 lb loss, you are really showing it!! Glad to have you on my team already, you are totally adorable!!

Alright ladies...as promised here are my results from the Dec 30DS challenge: weight: down 5.8 lbs bust: down 1" waist: down 1.5" hips: down 1" arms: down .5" thigh: down .25" Of course I was hoping for some staggering numbers, but I'm working on being excited for all that I've accomplished over this last year. The big…

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to write such sweet messages, I really am so humbled! I am glad that my pictures and story could relate to so many of you! I have updated my profile with quite a lot of info on my journey, so please check it out. I have also created a Group here: Sunny Days Move your *kitten*…

I vowed to only do this monthly and honestly, its HARD (from a former/current daily weigh-er) but I want a healthy relationship with my scale-ya know, since we live together. Start weight: 255.2 -these are pounds people Current weight: 166.6 Goal Weight: 135 (as per usual every girl right?) Bust: 38 Waist:30 Hips:39 Leg:23…

My wrists are sort of weak (probably b/c it is hard on them when I am so overweight though) and one tip for the push up portion of 30DS....I grasp the handweights when I do the pushups (girl version) and that really helps. With true tendonitis though, I'm not sure if it will but if it is just hard on your wrists, try doing…

Here's mine: StartFinishLoss weight: 172.4166.65.8 lbs arm l/r: 12/12.512/12.5 waist: 31.5301.5 bust: 39381 hips: 40391 Total Inches: 4.25 I think I am going to start the Burn Fat, Boost Metab. vid for this month. Thanks for a great challenge and way to go for those that stuck with it and made it till the end!! Thanks also…

Congrats!! You have come so far!! Glad you're on my team...such an inspiration!!
-
Wow, that sounds so scary!! I'm glad you shared though, hopefully this will hit home for some other folks that are also suffering from sleep apnea and push them to make the change too. I'm really proud of your hard work, I see you putting in the time for excercise, eating right and most of all, you have the right…
-
Hey sandy! You most certainly still qualify...you have to start somewhere. I rec walking, it's a great way to get your exercise in. Even if you have to break up the 30 min into 3-10 min sessions. Give yourself a month or so at being consistent and you will see your endurance will increase. Re: the high impact aerobic…

Mmm I would totally do a 'baked mashed cauliflower with or w/o cheese' dish to accompany your salmon! Or we will often throw down a few green olives, cherry tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and roasted garlic with some thick balsamic vinegar drizzled and call that a side.

Down 2.4# today from last week. I'm now down to my weight that I was 2 weeks ago. This is pretty standard for me lately...lose 2 lbs, up 2 lbs, lose them again and then finally move past that number by about the middle of the month. I am going to make a conserted effort not to let the scale determine my mood-it's just a…
-
Nice! I need to look into that one for sure, and you can't beat a buck! ;o) That's pretty much a podcast, but there is an unlimited world out there of very interesting podcasts. I like to think they are kind of like radio programs...usually no commercials and privately funded. There is every topic imaginable from comedy to…
-
Hey chica! I say keep pushing yourself!! I moved to the next level every 10 days to avoid any boredom that may settle in and cause de-railment. ;o) However, even after 8-9 days on each level I am still modifying some things. Which I think is totally ok. I started adding Level 1 back in after I do Level 3 this week and I…

I hear ya fee: I tend to get all crazy-obsessed too, I am an extremist by nature in everything I do in life. I am hoping that having this group and being accountable will continue to sink in as part of that lifestyle change that I am continually striving for. The races are my favorite!! Just signing up for them is the…
