I honestly dont know who came up with these quotes, but I love them * The only difference between try and triumph is a littl bit of Umph *The only workout you will really regret, is the one you chose not to do.

Calories in and calories out.. hit the gym and burn it off!

yeah, I wouldnt be screwing around on a public forum with that... see your doctor!

I just joined the army, and really, the only way to get better at push ups.... is doing pushups!! Start with trying just 1 real push up, go down as far as you can and come up. Each day, try to go further down. Once you have exhausted yourself on real push ups, go down to your knees and do as many as you can from there,…

I went on a 2 week overseas vacation at the beginning of the year, back home to South Africa, after being away for 7 years, I was really looking foreward to some food from home! I had a 15 min workout that I did in the morning (10 pushups, 20 sit ups, 10 burpees and a few planks) and then we walked ALOT as well. I ate all…

When I first started, doing 3 burpees and a 20 second plank left me feeling shaky and exhausted... Now I can do 10 REAL pushups (no knees), plank for 40seconds on front and sides (sides while lifting leg up and down), I have moved my dumbells up from 10lbs to 30lbs, and I can runa half mile without puking on myself :) Oh,…

INCHES!! I still climb on the scale every day, mostly because Im obsessive complusive about it, but when the damn scale is not moving, taking my inches can be VERY satisfying! And not to mention, going to the clothing store and suddenly being a size smaller is awesome!

I lift and do pushups... I havent lost my boobies at all :)

:laugh: Well thank you guys!! My friday has now gotten off on the right foot!

Keep em coming!! LOL!

HAHAHAH!!!

Australia and Malta.... :grumble:

First learn how to stay within your calorie allowence, and then work on the Macros. Thats how I figured it out!

Every single day... wake up... tinkle... scale.... keeps me accountable.

Caaaaakkkkkeee!!! Its my birthday on sunday.. I begged my family to pleaaase NOT bake me a red velvet cake with cream cheese icing... (wink)... I dont think calories count on your birthday... do they?

:noway: Holy CRAP!!! You look AMAZING!

That is what goodwill is AWESOME for!! When I start to "undergrow" my fat clothes, I go and drop $50 at goodwill and come away with awesome mix and match items.

There is no such thing as an innocent comment!

TOMethius... the goddess of hormones... makes all women instantly gain 5lbs overnight, and casts a shadow of self doubt over the 6 months of hard work you have put into your body...

I was pondering the same thing!! It makes me Crabby when other people get privilegdes!

:noway: AWESOME JOB!!!

At my initial army recruitment meeting... recruiter asks if I use any type of birth control and my husband pipes up.. "She has one of those IED thingies"... I wanted to crawl under the table and DIE!! I was like "you dork, its an IUD!". Needless to say the recruiter cracked up and was still trying to stifle his giggling 5…

Good job on cancelling. The ONLY way to lose weight and keep it off is by teaching yourself how and what to eat. Its the same reason that people who fork out all that money for nutrisystem and other diet programs put the weight back on. They are just eating whta they are told to eat, and not learning how to formulate a…

Well this is going to sound super nerdy... but one day at Barnes and Noble my daughter asked me to ready "Oh the places you will go" by Dr seuss to her.... No ****, that was the day I started to get my life and career back on track. Such a simple book made me realize that the choice is always mine!

IUD!! I got mine in 4 years ago and dont have to think about little bambino's for another 6 years... its awesome.. no pill no pullout no rubbers!

Awesome!!!

Make sure you are drinking enough water.... going into warmer weather now and your body needs more...

YAY!!! Super congrats!!

Yeah, I have gone for weeks at a time without losing.... one week isnt really a plateau. Sometimes a high calorie "cheat day" gets it moving again (oddly enough) and sometimes I just wait it out. keep doing what you are supposed to be doing and it will all come together :) Usually when the plateau breaks, it breaks hard…

5:15AM... get it out of the way before I get too lazy later on :)
