I have a picture of myself hanging up from when I was a fit athlete and I want to look like that again.

Oh that is so amazing! Thank you for sharing your success with us! Keep up the great work! You will get there! :D

Great way of thinking!! :D I love the optimism! Keep up the great work!

Here is what I have used for plantains. It is kind of annoying because I'm not a really good cook but you can make a lot at once and just store them so that's not that bad. http://srefoodblog.blogspot.com/2006/03/oven-baked-banana-chips.html As for the healthy snack mix I don't have a particular recipe but you can either…

What about Plantains? :) Or animal crackers, spiced popcorn, homemade healthy snack mix?

Haha yeah I'm in New Zealand so I guess it's different. :P

That's awesome! Congratulations! :)

Good luck with your surgery!! Oh my goodness my Mother In Law is addicted to Coronation Street and I live with her and I just can't stand it. I totally make fun of it too. I just don't get it!!! Hahahaha. I'll be thinking of you!

Hahaha you are so awesome. I have thought such things but was never so bold as to try. I'm curious to see your next adventure.

You look fantastic and so happy! :D

You look fantastic! Great work! :D

Couch to 5k is usually 3 days per week. Perhaps you could go on walks with your Grandma on the other days. I think that compromise is more than reasonable.

I have stopped eating starchy foods. They are my downfall.

Wow you look amazing! Congratulations and keep up the amazing work! :D

Hey this topic really helped me. You should check it out. :) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/10589-for-those-confused-or-questioning-eating-your-exercise-calo

Thanks for linking this!! You look fantastic! How exciting!! Congratulations on everything you've accomplished!

I give myself one day off working out. One day during the weekend I still drag my butt out there and do my exercise. I also let myself get takeaways once a week but I get something that stays within my calories and I feel even more amazing about it while still treating myself. I think the main thing is to PLAN, plan plan!…

That's fantastic! I just hit that same mark not too long ago and it felt amazing! :)

I can totally see a difference! You're doing an awesome job! Keep it up! :D

Hahahahaha that's pretty great it cracks me up.

Wow congratulations! You look absolutely fabulous!

That's awesome! Great job!! :D

Carbohydrates. Basically is it made with starch? Is it bread, pies (omg meat pies I love you), pasta, pizza, cookies, muffins, pastries, chips, crackers, potatoes, cakes, etc? They are all my downfall. My comfort. My enemy.

You are welcome. I totally understand. I have those moments too. Good luck with your Christmas goal! You can do it!

I totally get what you're saying. It takes a lot longer for you to see changes in yourself than it takes for other people to see them. It is really frustrating and hard and at times it seems like you are getting nowhere fast or like for all your hard work you are getting little to no results. Just remember why you are…

Today I did a walk that was twice as far as what I have been walking. When I first started I had been struggling to do that little walk. Today I felt amazing.

caity is my nickname I like to think that I sparkle with optimism.

I just moved to a new place. I mapped out an exciting new walking route on google maps that was twice as long as what I was doing and got really excited about it. It was really cool looking at new places and learning about the town I moved to. That motivated me to go out on my long walk.

Feel free to add me if you'd like some support. I'm always looking to give and receive support. :)

Wow you look absolutely amazing!! Congratulations on reaching such an awesome goal!
