Im loving the responses!!

HAHAHHA!! Im 29, I feel like I should have made smarter choices when I was 19... But its never too late I suppose. Im going to see a recruiter this week!

Are you still married?

I'll do one if you do one!!

"STOP THINKING ABOUT IT AND JUST JOIN THE MILITARY!!!"

Those were pretty neat!

I dont feel like fighting with pictures, but mine is going away.. I had severe "lower-butt bumps" and with squats and lunges and planks (no fancy gym equipment) its going away. Tightening the muscle underneath the fat while you are losing it is definately the key to losing the cellulite! I was told it all has to do with…

Thats awesome! When I lost 11 pounds I was crying because I couldnt see it at all! You can most definately tell with you!

Thats what he said over the phone, when I come in for the appointment he will check my BF% and go from there.. I did it here at home and it was 26% (using the navy method), while that is still a bit high, Im clost to meeting the sit up and push up requirements for the PT test, so I think it will be ok. Thank you for your…

Thank you all for the informative and encouraging responses... I am very excited about this as I think a life in the military is perfectly suited for me, and I cant believe it took me this long to come to that conclusion... My husband is being very supportive, even if a few of my co-workers aren't. I just hope that I am…

Wow! Thank you... Id better get on it I guess!

Girl! I joined for the saaaame reason! Christmas dinner we were all sitting around the dining room table and enjoying a good dinner, I asked for the mashed potatoes to be handed to me, and my mother in law said "Dont pass them to her, that chair is about to crack as it is..." And that was it.... my inner "Oh hell no, I'll…

Bump... any takers?

A chihauhau and the amount of cheese americans eat.... Or as I discovered the other day, a large tub of kitty litter! HAHAH

She's a lady.... Tom Jones Please throw me off a bridge :grumble:

WOW!!!! You look freakin AMAZING!! Good job girl! Keep it up :D

Its nice to see the numbers move down, but I dont pay too much attention. Ive switched from purely cardio to cross training, and my scale has hardly budged...however, my clothes are fitting better than ever, some are even getting too big again. Don't be too afraid of that scale, its how you feel and look that are the…

My hairdresser had the surgery, lost a bunch of weight, and then somehow managed to put it all back on. If you do not teach yourself WHAT to eat, and how much of it to eat, you will never be able to keep that weight off,

This is awesome! I was just fretting over what to do for breakers tomorrow morning!

HAHAHA... That explains why my hubby wont go to the gym with me! I dont think you were out of line at all. There are some things that couples should not do together!

I give my bootcamp instructor grief, but he is awesome and I love him... he knows its just my competitive nature and frustration at my own inabilities that Im upset with, not his workout. I'd say cut the complainers some slack, everyone has their own way of handling workouts, I say kudo's to them for being there and trying…

I have figured out that if I work out during my period, the cramps go away AND as a added bonus, it seem to shorten to 2 days instead of 4... GREAT MOTIVATION!! If I dont work out during, mine are long, crampy, nauseated horrible events...

LOL!! Im sooo glad Im not the only one! maybe we were abducted at some point....

Aliens.... I still havent made it through the first 10 minutes of Signs.... Im terrified. Its the dumbest thing, I know, but it makes me sweat just thinking about it!

Especially if you are paying attention to your macro's. Days where I eat apples I go over my sugars... even though they are "good" sugars, you still want to keep and eye on it. Keep up the good work and log it all! I even log my mini-cheats (Ex. 1 cheeto).

Interesting, we are at about the same weight lost and Ive hit a 2 week plateau as well. Maybe its just a "halfway there" mental block :) Keep doing all the right things and it will happen!

My ticker has all my info. I started Dec 27th, which is close enough to Jan 1st.

I thought I might get my bones hollowed out... who needs marrow anyways?

WARNING... FAT GIRL IN BIKINI!! Me at 211lbs Me HALFWAY there (taken 2 weeks ago) Still have another 35lbs to go! Slowly but surely getting there.. BTW.. bruise on my hip is from hula hooping (stupid weighted hoop). No pills, starvation or any crap.. just bootcamp and 1200cals..

I use the dumbells, but I push them up above my head as I squat down. Kinda works the arms and legs at the same time. And it helps keep my back straighter!
