  • I'm back on mfp after a hiatus during pregnancy and most of my old friends are gone. I welcome requests as well!
  • I wear my regular bra, plus a sports bra on top of that (Moving Comfort brand). It's ridiculous how hard it is to find a supportive sports bra for those of use with "abundant blessings."
  • I've lost 17 pounds so far (but I'm very short, so it's distributed differently). At my heaviest, I was busting out of DDD. Now I've got a little extra room in my DD. Hubby hasn't even noticed; he just complains when I mention that they've shrunk.
  • I'm 4'10" (Well that's what it says on my license anyway. I may have rounded up. :wink: ) My first goal weight is 115, and then I'll reevaluate from there. Any fellow shorties can feel free to add me!
  • I can binge all day on anything chocolate. The worst is Cosmic Brownies. OMG I still salivate over them. So delicious and I don't know what it is. It's not like they're gourmet chocolate or anything. lol! I just need ten seconds of resistance at the grocery store, though. If I don't buy them, I'm fine. If I do buy them,…
  • Maybe cut down a bit on facebook posts if you want, but don't completely stop! I say that because FB posts are the reason I decided that becoming fit & losing weight wasn't an unrealistic goal for me. I've been chubby my entire life. I tried anything to get out of PE class. I had accepted the "fact" that I was just built…
  • I'm the hugest Harry Potter nerd ever. I refuse to let go of my childhood. I'm also a former band geek (go flutes!). Oh, and of course, STAR WARS!!!! The cake topper at my wedding was R2-D2 and C-3PO, if that tells you anything. :laugh:
  • I make the same muffins, but add chocolate chips. That way they're sweet enough & don't need frosting! I use milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet because I'm a gluttonous piggie. :happy:
  • Wow, great job! Keep it up!!
  • I also don't want to be the slow fat chick when the zombies attack. Especially since hubby says if there's a zombie apocalypse, I'm on my own & he's getting the heck out of here. :grumble: Such a sweetie.
  • Rum and coke is my favorite too, but I'm a Sailor Jerry girl myself... Lately, though, hubby and I have been doing our drinking at home. I got him a bartending book for Christmas and we've been growing our collection of different types of alcohol.
  • I eat whatever the heck I feel like at the moment; I just keep it in moderation & make sure to log what I eat. In college, I got up to 145 (doesn't sound like much, but at my height it's a BMI of 30.3) by being a Cafeteria Cake connoisseur who sat around studying all the time. I did graduate cum laude, though, so I guess…
  • I guess I have a baby-face. Coupled with the fact that I'm super short, people usually think I'm 18-20. I'm actually 25. I've had a grocery store clerk or two express amazement when I show them my ID.
  • WOW! Awesome job! I'm also a shortie (4'10" so a "bit" shorter than you, lol). Jillian Michaels is kicking my butt right now and I love her for it. :)
  • With 30DS, definitely take measurements & keep track of them. I'm halfway through & I've lost maybe 5 pounds since starting. I have lost a combined total of 9.25 inches though! The muscle gain tricks you into thinking you're not losing any weight. You are! You're just losing fat & gaining muscle at the same time. I'm very…
  • I'm 4'10" (that's what it says on my license, anyway. wink, wink. I'm actually a tad shorter than that). My highest weight was 145, and I'm currently at 134. Oh, and I'm 25 yrs old.
  • I've been trying to be more active on MFP lately! I'm on a 20 day streak currently & my log is open. And I'll accept any friend requests that come my way! :)
  • I'm lactose intolerant, so I stay away from it unless I'm really wanting to experience some explosive diarrhea. LOL! I love ice cream, but it hates me... :sad: Almond milk is my favorite, but it's super expensive, so I don't get it very often... I've known some people who have lowered their dairy intake and it really…
  • Hi everyone! I'm Ashley! Feel free to add me! I'll accept any friend request. I'm re-starting on this quest to better myself. I was working in a really active job, which was great because I was essentially getting paid to exercise. I had lost about 20 pounds by also eating healthier. I then got a promotion, which is…
  • I just finished Day 10. I start Level 2 tomorrow and I'm scared because I've heard that's the hardest level. Eeek!! Doing this has really helped me realize that it actually is possible to work out every day. It's not unmanageable or anything. Even just setting 20 minutes aside for a high intensity work-out is beneficial. I…
