yum!

works for me. i understand it's hard when groups get really large but it's kinda crummy to me to turn down folks that want to participate and help challenge each other and hold each other accountable. Isn't that what this site is for? :wink:

then you've come to the right place!! Welcome! :flowerforyou:

this is soooo great! you are the shiz! I can totally tell and this is such a GREAT point as many of us have been there and have these same struggles.....we compare our progress with others and when it's not the same we feel it's not working. This is so inspirational. Keep up the great work and we look forward to cheering…

wow! this looks yummy! wonder if I could find them anywhere...I'd really hate to have to order them. seems silly. lol :wink:

I do have one sports bra with "support"....feels like underwire but might just be a thicker material and it seems to work fine. you wear the strap just under the bottom of your bra and personally....I've had both....chest strap ALL THE WAY! I was very skeptical because I was afraid the strap would not stay put and be a lil…

HOLY SMOKES!!! awesome job!!!! you look fan-friggin tastic!!!

good for you girl!!! you look AWESOME and should be VERY proud of your accomplishments!!! Keep em going! YOU ROCK!

TOTALLY feel ya here!!! I've always felt the same way....never felt like I "looked" what I weighed but either way I'm not happy! I'm very active so losing weight is a struggle for me. Since I don't really gain easily it seems to make losing 20x harder!!!! Feel free to add me! I'm 30/F with 2 boys and love love LOVE to…

so how can you "manually" change your goals? My BMR is more than my daily goal set by the site as well but I know I DANG SURE can't handle seeing that I'd be gaining weight if I ate like this everyday when I close out my diary every night! :noway:

all three of these sound DELISH!

awesome job! you look great...def like a totally diff (younger) person...so why no smile? :wink: great job!

WOW! great job!!! you look amazing and should be so extremely proud of yourself! Keep up the good work and congrats on your success!

I'll bite! Going to Jamaica on 9/1 with the hubs and hoping to shed this lump for a different kind of "bump" :wink: Have trouble staying motivated TO LOSE (not workout as I'm very active anyways and love it) but I get discouraged and tend to let my eating go seeing as how I've been stuck on this plateau for almost a year…

took the words right out of my mouth!!! YUM!

soooooo totally in on this one! Got a trip to Jamaica on 9/1 and I'd LOVE to lose this LUMP in exchange for a "bump" :wink: Starting weight (July 16): 153 1st week weight (July 23): 2nd week weight (July 30): 3rd week weight (August 6): 4th week weight (August 13): 5th week weight (August 20): 6th week weight (August 27):…

too late to join in? I have a trip to Jamaica Sept 1st and I'm right on with leaving the cover up at home and struttin my stuff!!!! Would LOVE to be down 15 or at least 1 pant size by then!!!! :drinker:

SOUNDS DELISH!

The easiest way to "get into Zumba" is by joining a local class with a group of ladies that are there for the same reasons!!! 1. health 2. to have fun 3. FOR SUPPORT! You find a great group of ladies that love to have fun and just let go! I always tell my classes that this is our opportunity to be "kids" and just have fun!…

AWESOME JOB!!!! believe it or not....as a Zumba Instructor that is one of the HARDEST things to teach your class!!!! You get what you give! Sure it's fun and we all have a great time but our ultimate goal is better health. It's very encouraging to see your success and to see that you GET IT! :) great job! Keep it up and…

1-2 lbs / week is a HEALTHY weight loss! Be proud of yourself! It's normal to feel discouraged.....we've all been there but if this is not truly a lifestyle change and just a "diet" it will never work. That's where most of us falter! We yo-yo back and forth with healthy eating with just flat out gorging ourselves with…

yum!

holy smokes! great job!!

wow! that is truly ispiring! Awesome job!!! Keep up the great work!

I absolutely echo the main point that everyone else is saying.....at night is better than not at all. If you try to exercise when OTHER PEOPLE tell you that you should and at inconvenient times, chances are you will NOT stick to it. Exercise whenever you can and give it your all. It is better to exercise in the am simply…

wow!! this one looks really yummy too but 400+ cals for breakfast??? ouch!

Nutritional info anywhere?

hmmmmm....this just may come in handy with the 4th coming up! Love me a Mojito and I've already got the CL mix! yum yum

To me "lightly active" is doing SOMETHING (i.e. playing outside with the kids, walking around from station to station at work (not completely sedentary at your desk all day), etc) on a daily basis so if in addition to these things you're doing some "spring cleaning" or washing your car and like some other posters said it…

you ladies ROCK!!! Like OP said....there is NOTHING sexier than a woman with some confidence! Know how hard you've worked so far and be proud of that!!! Strut your stuff and work it! Don't let ANYONE tell you that you ain't hot! :bigsmile: Still working on my Jamaica body but hopefully will be there soon! If I have the…
