Welcome! I'm fairly new here and love the community. I'm sure you'll be happy here too. I'm also going to start trying p90x! Hoping for similar results :o)

Hon, you answered my question. I knew he had to be overweight. It's called envy and it's a nasty thing. Sorry he picked on you like that. I hope your husband does get to speak to him because that is just not cool.

Actually, I like weight training more than cardio. It's the time commitment I'm always worried about because I'm so busy. I just want to be successful this time! I'll definitely take your advice and just do what I can. I feel like my cardio sessions are not being as productive. I'm making sure I keep my heart rate up but…

Oh no! I was hoping I wouldn't have to buy anything and it was just something easy to fix. I don't have the cash to buy a new one just yet. I still have elasticity in the strap so I might not have to replace that just yet...hopefully. Thanks for your suggestions! I'll try to tighten it and see if that doesn't work. I've…

Great job! Very inspirational. I was thinking the same thing! Those baggy clothes are covering up your sexy body! lol..

Awesome! You look so much younger!

You want to be sure so you should see your OB/GYN for an accurate blood test. You can always start by taking the pregnancy test but remember that only works at a certain point.

I'm the same. I only eat them if I'm hungry.

Looks super yummy but too many calories for my plan unfortunately.

I've found that the only way to keep my sodium intake pretty low is to not eat out. Last week I had Chipotle thinking it would be low fat. Well it was low fat but the sodium was out of control. Now I don't trust anything from the restaurants because it's basically the sodium and/or fat that's making the food taste so…

I guess I get frieked out from seeing the red overage in the sugar column everyday. But when I look at what's pushing it over, it's the fruits and yogurt. My meals are pretty low sugar. I try to eat the greek yogurt for protein and the fruits for keeping me full. I know that the natural sugars are better but I've been…

You look amazing! What a difference. This is definitely very inspirational. I can't wait to be where you are :o)

Yup! I see it! Way to go! Keep up the good work!

That must be such a great feeling! Congrats!

Congrats, you look amazing!!!!! How long did it take you to reach this goal? Any tips for us just starting off?

I don't think it's in your head. I think it's a known thing that many women experience. Maybe you can plan your meals more carefully during that time of the month when you know you'll be busy too.

I'm really loving this site too. Like others, I've tried other plans and avoided counting calories like the plague. I thought it was just too time consuming because I have a very busy schedule. Since I have a desk job though, I'm in front of the computer all day so logging has been super easy and I am way more aware of…

Only she knows why she's snubbing you and I wouldn't waste your time trying to figure it out or asking her about it. It is common that some people do that when they see others thrive around them. It may be that, it may be something else. I would just be nice to her and let her do what she wants.

Very handsome! Can't wait til I get to my half way point!!

I can't help myself at parties either, so great job!!

I say don't get all crazy and overeat/binge. Eat freely, eat when you're hungry, don't eat when you're not and have fun!

This is a GREAT success! Stick with it!!

I'm the same way. The sun wakes me up pretty well. If the room is too dark, I just won't get up...

I also will have this problem if I don't eat enough protein or if I eat too much sugar. You could probably fit in a low calorie/low sugar protein shake. If you are hungry you should eat, as long as you're not making it up in your head (emotionally, LOL)

Yay!!! You look amazing! Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm going to try to commit to login everyday and keep focused that way. I have a sedentary life as I work a desk job and work very long hours. So I HAVE to be more careful about my calories and exercise. And I do get inpatient so thanks for reminding me to take a chill pill :o) Good advice everyone! One real problem is…

Thanks!!! I will try to keep positive and focused.

lol..I second that. Drink 2 big glasses of water and head to bed..lol

I find that eating something sweat that's more healthy (like a fruit or raisins etc.) when that urge is really getting bad helps. It gives you a little time to convince yourself to stay away from the cookie. I find it helps if I remind myself that the fruit or 100% juice is sweet and try to reason with those urges in your…
