Ok, it cut off half my post, but in all seriousness, you guys look great. :smile:

Damn, y'all look amazing after 125 years!

I slept like crap last night. People kept talking to me at summer camp drop off, for almost 15 mins. I think I hit every red light between camp and the gym. I sat on the bike and started pedaling and the damn thing shut down. By this time I was ready to quit, as the universe clearly didn't want me to work out today. I got…

I restarted the hundred pushups program (again...), and added in the situps, dips, and squats as well. I did them all as a circuit this morning, even with the two year old being here, there, and everywhere. I've been making her my excuse for not working out, since I "knew" she'd be in the way...but in reality, she made it…

My kids have been sick, I've been sick, haven't been eating well or exercising for almost two weeks. Today, despite a much later start than planned, I managed to get myself to the gym for a 15 minute work out before getting my big kid from preschool. So many chances to make excuses not to go, but I didn't take any of them!

Ok, I looked at all the brands suggested. Enell and Shock Absorber look amazing, but holy cow, that is NOT in the budget. Sadness. I found a La Isla, Champion, and Glamorise on amazon, so hopefully one (or more) of those will work out for me. Thank you so much for all of your advice, ladies!

This is awesome, I really didn't expect this much help! I have so many tabs open comparing everything. Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I don't understand wearing two bras. Like a size smaller under your normal size? Wouldn't just wearing one a size smaller do the same thing? It just sounds really…
-
Oh, wow, thanks for the suggestions! I never would have thought VS for sports bras. Maybe I'll look at those after I've dropped a bit...I need a goal to work towards (plus I'm a penny pincher). I will definitely check out all the other brands, thank you!

Had to pull out a smaller pair of jeans today (non-stretchy 14s) and they fit! Some muffin top, but smaller than the one I had when growing out of my stretchy 16s. Woo!

Part of it is my foot, I hurt it in January and it keeps feeling better and then not and back again. Right now, it hurts, so I'm frustrated and cranky. I haven't seen a doctor, because right now the money needs to go to the therapist to work on the rest of the anger. (The reasons are very personal, but they are being…

Haha, the littles just got out of the pool. I am drinking water, and staying away from the kitchen. My hands still smell like bug spray (have to rub it on) which is helping, oddly enough. I hadn't thought to do my nails, that is fantastic! I would love to do some window shopping, but I am afraid of making my foot hurt…

As the weather started getting warmer, and I started wearing skirts more often, I had a lot of issues with my thighs rubbing together. By the end of the day, they'd be red and painful. So I bought a couple of 'thigh slimmers' to prevent it. Worked great, so I've been comfortably wearing skirts all summer. Yesterday, they…

At the beginning of the summer, I was really frustrated that one of my pairs of capris didn't button (not even close!). Last week, they not only buttoned, they were comfortable! Sadly, this also means my favorite pj shorts that I've been wearing for almost five years are now starting to fall off of me. They're maternity…

You are not alone! I've always been chubby, and then I had a baby two years ago and gained even more weight - putting me at the 50 lbs overweight mark. I have not lost any of that weight in TWO YEARS. And now my problem is that I have been figuratively slapped in the face by how I look and how I feel...but I feel like…

My husband is going to be Phineas, I'm going to be Ferb, and our daughter will be Perry the Platypus. Not sure if I'll be able to find a tiny fedora, but I really hope I can.

As long as he's gaining weight, you're fine! My daughter is little too, but she's always been at about the same percentile, so our doctor isn't worried. Just make sure you're getting enough calories for him - you can add breastfeeding to your food diary, it's under snacks. I assume at this age, you'd be at the 500 calorie…

This made me laugh so hard! I have to always park next to the same cart corral at the grocery store so I won't lose my car. I can't tell you how many times I've lost my car in garages!
-
I second doing push ups on the stairs. I've worked myself down to the second stair for work outs, and just out of curiosity learned that I can do one on the floor now. Getting there!
-
Congratulations on your wedding, your baby, and losing 45 pounds already! That's awesome. I agree with taking him for walks (if you use a baby carrier, he can sleep in it while you walk) or jogging with a stroller. Can you do some yoga with him next to you? I still use my daughter for "weight lifting", even though she's a…

I'd workout anyway. It's her own fault for not being in her room. If she wakes up cranky, she can just get off the couch, walk to her room, and shut the door.

Add me to the 1200 club. Gotta get rid of the baby weight! I'd like to at least be back to my pre pregnancy weight by her first birthday.
