What a wide variance. I am 5'3". At my heaviest, 181 I was a very tight 12. Currently, at 157 and I am at a loose 8 for most pant brands that I wear. I have broad shoulders and boobs, so my tops are always large/12 to prevent the button gap.

Feel free to add me. Happy to chat and interact.

Hi There - 53 years young and looking to lose 25+. Lot's in common with some previous posters. I've always been active/fit and ate pretty well my adult life, but over the years have gradually increased in weight. I really have to discipline myself and realize most weight loss for me is done in the kitchen and watching…

Please feel free to add me, I don't have a lot of friends on here and could use the extra support.

Hello Ladies - It seems the wind is causing havoc all over the place. Here in Delaware its quite breezy and overcast, keep hoping for that perfect Spring day. I enjoyed seeing everyone's Easter pictures. Hubby & I went to a family brunch in Philadelphia. It was fun to see family, but was a bit disappointed in the quality…

Everyday I’ve been going outdoors waiting for a Spring-like morning and it hasn’t occurred yet. Yesterday I had to warm up the car to get all the frost off the windows. Today, no frost, but it was quite chilly. The weather girl did say we were going up to the high 70’s later this week, so hopefully we don’t jump right into…

Hello Ladies - Shame on me for not checking in over a week, now I am at least 20 pages behind!!!! Gotta try better to check in to this group at least daily to keep up. Well, March has been very good for maintaining my fitness/eating goals. Today is Day 26 of my Paleo Challenge and I can honestly say I have followed it…

I started Cross Fit about 6 months ago. I had historically done a lot of running/elliptical and it just wasn't getting me the results. I have to do a lot of modifications, but love my Box and the coaches. My results have been slow, but steady. I'm a bit older than most at my gym, but don't compare myself to them, just keep…

Good Monday Morning – So far, so good on March’s goals. I’m on day 12 of my Paleo Challenge. The only thing I’m missing and looking forward to is a nice glass of wine. Got a work out in on Saturday, but otherwise a lot of sitting this weekend as I was in a 2-day needlepoint class in Maryland. This morning’s Cross Fit was a…

TGIF – Started off with a pretty snow fall this morning in Delaware. Although it was pretty and not much, I am hoping it is the last one for the season. Did the early morning Cross Fit and also got a 2-mile (slow jog) in, all before 8:00. I’m also going to have to get my workouts in early this weekend as I have a…

Hello Ladies – I started my day with my protein breakfast of 2 eggs, .20 oz ground pork, .02 oz ground turkey and some raspberries and blackberries. The Paleo diet has opened my eyes to how much sugar is added to our food. I thought I would add some salsa to spice up my breakfast, but read the ingredients and saw sugar was…

Good Afternoon and Happy Hump Day - I hope everyone is doing well. I saw another Suzy in this group and thought it was a bit unusual to find two of us that spell our name the same. I'm not sure why, but often I am asked if Suzy is my "real" name or my nick name, but it is my real name. Today is day 7 of my Paleo challenge,…

Barbie - I love the workout Hello Kitty you posted for March. I'm going to have to find it and use it as my profile page for Facebook. I started the 30-day Paleo Challenge that my Cross Fit Box is coordinating on 2/25. So far, so good. I haven't been hungry and really haven't missed anything except for chewing gum. With…

Hello - I'm glad I found this wonderful group (again). I was off of MFP for a year and have struggled w/unexplained weight gain and am at a all time high at 174. Logging does keep me accountable and I hope that will help and I also have an appointment with an endocrinologist at the end of March, so hopefully they will be…

I am 5'3" and was 112 when I graduated, I am now 151, would like to get to 135.

I think you have already received some good advise. May want to change your Facebook settings on what he can see, as he seems to be a little obsessed with you.

no, just like it on cold days, Korean comfort food. anything taken to the extreme can be bad.

fermented cabbage = kimchee, love it. :D especially kimchee soup

Hello Ladies - bump for later.

Hello Ladies – Had a slow start this morning and hit the snooze button a few too many times so didn’t get my morning workout in. Took my car in to get serviced as I had 3 different warning lights pop on (temp guage, parking assistance and check engine light). The service tech just called and said it looked like some type…

Happy Wednesday MFP Ladies! I just finished up Girl Gone, has anyone else read it? It was not what I expected and did not think it lived up to all of the hype. I did see that they are coming out with the movie version in the fall, it will be interesting to see how that plays out. Made me also wonder, what books is everyone…

Happy Monday Ladies – It is going to be extremely muggy here in Delaware today. I had a nice low key weekend. Went to go see Planet of the Apes yesterday. It was an enjoyable movie, but in my opinion not sure it was worthy of the 3.5 stars it received. A new movie theatre opened up a few miles from our house, it is very…

bump for later

Hello Ladies (thank goodness its’ Friday) It’s been a long work week, especially digging out from being on vacation last week. On top of that we had a pretty major organizational change, so everyone is now trying to figure out who is doing what. I figure it will take a good 30 days for everything to settle down from that.…

Happy Wednesday Ladies – I had my 2nd session of Physical Therapy last night. My back is a little tender, but overall feels good. Most of the exercises they have prescribed are basic, and I know I should do these on a daily basis, but over the years have fell off the band wagon. Woke up a little late today, so only got a 3…

Good Afternoon MFP Ladies – Hope everyone is doing well and managing to stay cool during these hot summer days. Back from my week of vacation and just now getting all caught up. I haven’t read all of the back posts since 6/30, but have done a quick scan. We had lovely beach weather for the entire week, except for Friday…

Happy Friday Ladies – I am doing a happy dance as I have just a few more hours to go before my vacation begins. :smile: Heather – your sourdough bread sounds heavenly, I’ve never attempted to make home made bread. :smile: Diane – pretzel salad is so easy, 3 steps, but takes a little bit of time. Here is the link for the…

Hello Ladies – I've been trying to get on here daily, as it seems if I go a few days its too hard to catch up!!! I am so ready for Friday. Getting ready to go on vacation and I am sort of wishing time away as I am really looking forward to getting away for a week. We are going to Ocean City, MD, don’t have a lot planned,…

Hello Ladies It is hot and muggy here in Delaware. Didn’t get myself out of bed early enough for a pre-work workout, so will have to budget some time after I get home to get my steps/miles in. :smile: Michele – glad you got a note from Bryan, hopefully he maintains contact. :smile: Meg, Heather & Sylvia – thanks for the…
