Wow! Thank you for sharing your story! I came to the "success" board looking for motivation because I've had a (little)setback and wanted to get my mind right today! You have done a great job. You should be very proud of yourself! Keep up the good work.

YES!! This is great!!

I don't "eat back" any exercise calories for this very reason. It has worked well for me thus far. Creates a little "cushion" in the calorie budget. I also tend to eat the same things so I learn over time how many calories are in them and its not a chore.

How many months post partum are you? Hang in there. I saw a huge improvement in the second year after pregnancy. At my son’s 2nd birthday party I was rocking my skinny jeans lol. Tummy was tighter and flatter too. Then I decided to have another baby so here I am again! Just try to eat at a modest deficit and move more. You…

Feel free to add me! My second is 7 months. I'm about 20 pounds away from pre-pregnancy weight and after that I want to lose another 20. My goal is to do this slow and steady over the course of the next year! I'm still breastfeeding so I don't want to do anything drastic. I want to get in my 30 mins of exercise a day and…

I am sorry about your dog. That's very hard to watch.

I'm 5'6 and I have similar goals. Currently 177. Had my 2nd baby in June 2017. I feel comfortable at 140, so that's my current goal. I've maintained there easily in the past. But alas, life happens and its suddenly not so easy! And I'm still breastfeeding, so I'm not trying to rush the weight loss...looking for a slow and…

I'm 30 and have 30 pounds left! SW: 168 CW: 158 GW: 130

I need to lose 40, too! Almost have the first 10 down!

Good job!

me! I have gained and lost the same 20 pounds too many times! Looking to make it stick this time!

I did the first day yesterday and MAN AM I SORE TODAY! I love Jillian's workouts, but it has been a LONG TIME! First name: Jana Location: Indiana Weight: 152 Height: 5'6 Goal for the program: finally get this baby weight off. (he's two!) I have been on and off of my fitness pal for 4 years now. I lost 30 pounds initially…

Oh good, I thought it was just me...

When i was pregnant my father in law said, you look bigger than the last time we saw you! He of course meant the baby bump but hello? I just said, Well i am PREGNANT and walked away.....

agree!

no more trouble zones! I love it!

I noticed that when I tried to drink it again after taking two weeks off to drink only water and green tea that I felt sick to my stomach. Thought I was going to throw up and started to get shaky. I hadn't noticed much of a difference before that, but that was all the motivation I needed to kick the habit for good. Every…

I have the butt bible and I love it. The lady is crazy but I let her offensive comments entertain me while Im working and it takes my mind off of the pain in my rear. I am seeing a difference in my butt muscles for sure, but I don't think its much of a calorie burner, so I guess it depends what your goals are.

thanks!

bump

Good point. That could be it. I am yelling at my TV right now. Can't believe it. Being on the show is a blessing. Don't throw it away like a cry baby. Don't they realize that the person coming back could be their own PARTNER??? Or are they saying that their own family member (son/brother) doesn't DESERVE to come back???

Not to be nosy, but can I ask how much you weigh? I am wondering if I am overestimating my calories burned.

bump

I really don't think it was game play at all to have only lost what they did. I think it had everything to do with switching diets. They both mentioned at one point that they were doing a low carb thing at home. Normally, I'm a big believer in "calories in versus calories out" for weight loss, but having done Adkins for a…

I mainly use this site for tracking food, but when I saw this post I had to respond! My husband's family omits words sometimes and I don't why it bothers me at all but sometimes it does. They will say, "this shirt needs washed" instead of "needs to be washed" or this "needs done" instead of "needs to be done." Like I said,…

Went to Target today to get some healthy food. spotted a great parking place. That NEVER happens. WTH? Oh wait...could't park there because there was a CART in the way. WTH!! Keep in mind that this great parking spot was right next to the place were the carts go. How hard would it be to walk the extra step? Seriously. WHT!!

I did it for one week and I was starving! I agree with what others have said - you aren't getting much of anything from those foods. The snacks were so tiny and sad. For my second week I actually turned it into a "Fiber One challenge" and that worked better for me. I know Fiber One is not the best thing for you either but…

So true! It seems like they want to complain that you are losing weight and they are not but they don't want to encourage you for making good food choices.

I just bought it but haven't started yet. Sorry that doesn't help, but I am interested as well....
