Next time some cute guy is looking at you, go talk to him. I was definitely the "approacher" with my husband. Mostly because guys do find me intimidating, so I learned to use that to my advantage. It doesn't mean I wear the pants in my relationship, or that I'm the boss, it just means that I thought my husband was cute, so…

I don't think you are overreacting at all! When you are so proud of your hard work you want other people to recognize it too! I think it's amazing you have lost over 60 pounds. Good for you! :flowerforyou:

Agreed!

Team 23 has decided on a name! Shake It Off! Woo-hoo!

We met in college. We both worked at the bus service on campus, he drove bus and I worked in the front desk. I was a little bit of a party girl at the time and had "relations" with several of the other college guys who worked there. I had met my husband a couple of times before we really met each other and went on a date,…

I looked into your diary and from what I can see, you're not eating enough. Most days you are barely hitting 1000 calories. Eat, girl, eat! You are starving yourself, so your body won't let go any of your fat reserves. While loosing weight is 80% diet and 20% exercise, you need to be doing the right kind of diet, which…

Soup, grab the can and go! If i don't feel like it will be filling enough, then I grab a piece of fruit to go with it.

I guess if I had to choose it would be women, they seem to be way more judgmental about it (ok, really, I'm super judgmental about it, haha! I wouldn't tell you I thought you were dressed like a ho, but I would certainly think it). So I guess I dress more for women than for men. I didn't use to be like this though, I used…

I'm technically an apple, but I feel like I'm a little bit of both, since my weight gain area is from below my chest to my thighs..... When I was skinny, I was a pear..... Can't wait to get back there!

So, maybe I'm not seeing something right?!?!? But when I go to the spreadsheet, all I see are the starting weights. I don't see where the challenges are listed? Can someone point me in the right direction? Also: Tuesday's challenge was completed, and I have sent a message to both my teammates, waiting on a reply and a…

I would also like to join if it's not too late! This sounds like it would be loads of fun! ETA: SW: 208

That had me in tears! So funny! Your family is right!

The only thing I can recommend is to buy a heart rate monitor. Every other tool will just be a guess.

This is a new breakfast I have been trying this week and love! Homemade fruit and yogurt parfait - 1 c regular vanilla yogurt, 2 strawberry's sliced, handful blueberries, 1/3 c flax granola vanilla and almond - super yummy! 1 banana 345 calories

Here's what is current: Height: 5'10" Weight: 208 Pant Size: 14 Shirt Size: X Large Frame: Large I don't have my measurements from before I started since I didn't measure then, and just squeezed into my old clothes. And I've only lost about 6 or 7 lbs.

My cat gets extremely upset when I try to work out. He thinks it's play time, so when I am doing sit-ups or push-ups he tries to attack me. But when I start panting, oh man, I gotta watch out! He thinks when you pant you are making fun of him (cuz he pants when he plays hard) and goes up and bites you! Haha, I think my cat…

I just did the North Shore half two weeks ago! It was AWESOME! But I have a little bit of a nagging foot injury, so I can't be taking on any halfs anytime soon. Good luck! Have fun!

I agree, smaller clothes is always a good reward. :-) But if your hubby wants to get you something special, maybe you should just hint that you'd like a gift from him? Jewelry? A trip? Something along those lines?

When I was registering for my wedding at Target, the clerk asked if I was registering for a baby shower. :blushing: So embarrassing....

If you look under Cardio, there is a category for strength training, that calculates your calories.

I get up at 5, am out the door by 6, 10 mile bike ride to work, depending on how fast I went/how tired I'm feeling I might hit the elliptical or treadmill for 20 minutes when I get to the gym. Shower, get ready, and at work by 8:30 at the latest. That's if I am motivated to get up in the morning. :smile: On days I am too…

I aim to eat 1700 calories every day. You can check my diary out too, so you can see. Everyone is different, and if you tried to only eat 1200 calories a day you would be miserable, hungry, and probably go into starvation mode. Follow MFP guidelines that are set out for you. Not what someone else is doing. :flowerforyou:

I wouldn't get implants, but if you feel like you would be happier with yourself, then I say go for it! I do have every intention of getting a lift after I am done have babies and done breastfeeding!

YES! You need to have your "me time"! And that includes time with friends and no husband! I don't know what I would do without my friends. I mean, my hubby is my best friend, and I would never want to give that up, but sometimes you need an outside perspective. Or just some time away from each other. Like I said, I love my…

How well do your glasses fit? I do almost everything in my glasses except run races, I put contacts in for races. But for other work outs, I just wear my glasses. Sometimes when I get sweaty they slide a bit, but I usually don't have a problem of them falling off, unless I'm hanging upside down for a prolonged, sweaty…

Tea is good, but watch out for the sugars. I usually just do unsweetened iced tea, and if I feel like I need sugar I can add my own.

It looks like you had an absolute blast! I'm so jealous! My Warrior Dash is this weekend, but I injured my foot, so I can't run. :sad: You look like you had fun though! Congratulations!
