  • Aww thank you but I am just barely out of the "obese" category. I am tall (5'9") and have always carried weight well but I am still in the mid 160's. Prior to my accident I was 135-140 and a healthy size 8 ( that should tell you how big I am bone wise) and in amazing shape, I ran, hiked, climbed mountins---anything…
  • Thank you for the super kind words!! He is such a mess but a beautiful one and I am just glad I can now take care of him becuase before I was just going through the motions I had so much medication in me and was always so tired!! Now we play and have fun and mommy is happy and feels so much better---it is a win-win for my…
  • I am so sorry and Yes I know what it is. My hubby and I had researched and talked about having me put into a Ketamine induced coma to see if it would help reset my brain since research had shown to be promising but experimental but never went through with it and I am thankful we found something else. I pray for her that…
  • 52lbs and over 40 inches since Oct 1, 2011. I just posted about my loss about an hour ago with pics :) Good luck on your journey and don't give up!
  • BTW----I am about to be 34 and I am 5'9" for any wondering. In the last pic you can even see my right leg is not the same as my left leg and never will be but that is ok.
  • Aww thanks! He is my little moneky such a wonderful little mess.
  • Thanks hun!! It helps having great friends like you on MFP to encourage one another!! Thanks for being there to encourage!!

  • Thank you all so much!! It feels great to feel better again. I feel like I have been given a 2nd cahnce at life and damn if I am not going to grab it by the horns and run with it!!

  • I also found a website ( maybe zumbaburn or zumbacalorieburn or something to that effect----just google it) and used the information given. I always just use the low intensity burn because I don't know for sure and I ould rather under shoot my burn than over. I am 5'9" and 180 and using the low intensity for a 20 min…
  • I entered it in on my own because there was nothing for Zumba in the database for cardo. I went to a website that told me what you should burn at home on low, medium and high intesnity and I just always use the low intensity burn to not over shoot my burns becuase I am at least burning that.
  • My hubby didn't understand at first and he picked at me until he realized why I was doing it and then he joined me. He is also trying to loose weight and once he realized I was serious and passing him up he jumped in with me. Maybe talk to her about it
  • That is right!! There is no reason to even be remotely ugly about these posts. While you, Troll, may not get these posts....other people do so either be nice or go back and play under your bridge!!

  • LOVE, LOVE, LOVE The Big Bang Theory!!!! It is on my TV right now too and being DVR for the hubby when he gets home next week :)
  • Laying on the couch with Big Bang Theory and Netflix when it is over!! My sick 8 mo old just went to sleep and my hubby is offshore working so I will sneak out at 12 (if I am still awake--10 hours of sleep in 4 days might make it hard) and go watch fireworks from the backyard. They have been going for about 2 hrs now but…
  • Thanks!! Maybe that is why I have yet to find them, I look in the regular dairy everywhere I look.
  • My handsome hubby! None extremely current as he is hard to get in front of a camera so it is a begging game to get even one!! Middle pic is of him and his dad---My hubby is 6'4" and his dad, not so much. The third is a night walk on the beach getting wind blown and I was sick---little did we know I was expecting our first…

  • I did not have a set # for a goal since I just started in Oct and had no idea what I was capable of doing. My goal was just to loose weight...........I did --so I guess I met this goal. Now I do have a goal going into 2012---By May 2nd I want to be at my goal weight 135-140 and get in my pool without hiding under something…
  • Thanks for this and I tried again this morning. I really think mine is jacked up!! I was able to get my resting HR but I could never get a read during my workout no matter what I did. Once I was finished and sat down I was able to get a read GRRR then it went to beeping and flashing and I was unable to do anything, it kept…
  • You are AWESOME!! For not having kids and recgonizing what it takes to stay at home is well I don't have a word LOL.....I love it and I run 2 businesses from home but some days I think about going back to work 8-5 in an office for a break--I feel like I work harder now than ever before in my life!!
  • I am a SAHM and originally had mine on sedentary and then changed it to the next one becuase I do not sit often and constantly running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I think it has worked better for me since changing it and upping my calories. I think my calories were too low because I could be spot on them…
