Walking is a wonderful exercise...now judging others...meh...not so much. :wink: I'd just try worrying about myself~ worrying about what other people are doing all the time is just going to drive you crazy.

Loooove that body!!! Your hard work has surely paid off! Congrats on getting fit and healthy!!!

Sorry for the short and sweet answer but I'm going through this now as well so if you need anyone to talk to, I'm all ears. The thing that makes it even crazier is that my bf and I were trying for a while to have kids as well and then found out that due to the testicular cancer he had when he was in his early 20's that…

Great answers from everyone! I'm another vote for adopting but also want to stress the importance of teaching your kid(s) how to act around the dog as well. So many people spend all their time worrying about how to get the dog to behave properly and forget that it's all new for the children too and they need just as much…

Hi cysters!! Just wanted to follow up again with my progress with the one month Lupron shot. Today is 3 weeks after I got my injection and I'm still waiting for the relief... I still had a normal TOM last week and definitely have the increased pain the doctors warn MAY happen. Well, it definitely got worse~ no MAY about…

No no no a million times NO! There are few things in life that irk me more than someone telling people with mental illness that it's okay to go off meds and that they can cure themselves. It's awesome that you were able to control some of your SYMPTOMS but you have NOT cured your bi-polar disorder just from eating better.…

LOL ^^^This!!!! So glad you were comfortable enough to want to dance!!!! Awesome nsv!!

Loooove these!!!!! Every one of you ladies looks incredible!! Thanks for the reminder to stick with strength training~ it surely pays off!!!! :love: :love: :love:

Loooooove before and afters!!! Awesome job, everyone!! Getting there slowly but surely! Here's my before shots and a few weeks ago after losing about 40 lbs. I'm consistently inconsistent and always changing my approach but I'm doing it the healthy way so I'm okay with that! :wink:

You lost it once and you'll lose it again. You're very dedicated so I know it's only a matter of time once you set your mind on this new goal. You can do it!!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

You're a stunner before and after! Congrats on your incredible weight loss and for your new-found healthy way of life!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

Not sure what's up with all the skepticism, I know exactly what you mean. Basically, in the past you were just worried about performing the task and not necessarily isolating your muscles when working out. I'm guilty of this and now realize when I'm just going through the motions instead of actually working my muscles.…

Congrats!!! It's truly amazing what can happen when we take better care of ourselves. So happy for you!!!!!

Forget everything else, I just like this quote!!!

Needed a little motivation and dug out some of my more embarrassing "fat pics"... Top row is before and bottom row is during~ bottom middle was last night after a little run. :smile: The marshmallow one still kills me~ never again!!! :noway:

Fabulous weight loss and you are simply stunning!!!

Total nsv!!! It's still a little sad when your favorite clothes don't fit anymore but at least it's for the right reasons!! Congrats on losing the inches!!! :flowerforyou:

She looks super fit to me! In my opinion~ skinny would mean thin with no muscles. This chick has muscles for sure!!

Hi Ladies!! So sorry for not responding I just saw all of these!! I had a follow-up appt today to go over my ultrasound results. My left side that's been driving me crazy is where I have a decent sized cyst~ almost 7cm across (holy crap). He's fairly certain it's an endometroid and he went over all the options and risks…

Too funny! I must have this too with the number of times I've had random strangers come up to me and tell me to smile. Why must I smile all the time?? Some times I'm just sitting here being content with my regular face! :grumble: :laugh:

Congrats on your amazing loss and new-found dedication to your health!! btw~ you are BOTH gorgeous!!! Rock on with your bad selves!!!

Awesome job! Look how tiny your waist is getting too! You have a beautiful shape~ keep up the great work!!

Touche' :smile:

Would one of these be worth having? I've though about getting one to keep my legs moving but just not sure it'll really do anything for me.

If he has Bipolar Disorder and is off his meds, he is literally not thinking straight and anything is possible~ ANYTHING! He is not safe and neither are you and the kids!! As you'e well aware, your last 10 lbs mean nothing in the grande scheme of things and perhaps thinking about your weight loss is your distraction from…

Another one here that has dealt with this my entire life. To those dismissing her concern, she isn't talking about an "oh I ate soooo much my belly is sooo full and big" kind of thing. It gets big and bloated no matter what you eat to the point where you look a few months pregnant even with a small meal~ you get bloat and…

^^^ This! Except you forgot the cigarettes to go with your pills and booze! :flowerforyou:

Yes, it's already been done and it's on the market. DOCTORS prescribe it for patients including people going through cancer treatment.

Actually, it does.

Reefer Madness all up in here... Seriously, a lot of research has been done between now and the 1930's. Can we move on already??
