Great tips here! Saving for that extra push :smile:

oh yum!

This was such a great post! Thank you. And you congratulations!

I know you said you get sleepy when your little one naps, but that's really the best time if you're not an early riser. When I stay up late to workout, it keeps me up and waking up early makes me so so tired. My 4 & 2 year olds nap at the same time, but my 10mo still takes two naps a day. You just gotta make it work! Some…

Aw what beautiful success story :flowerforyou:

1. I love dolphins! 2. I have a 3.9 GPA at UC Berkeley, three kids and all 3. My husband was a one night stand (or so we thought lol) 4. My daughters are beautiful (Well this one is obvious, but it needs to be said :wink: ) and they're a mixture of black/white/cuban. 5. I was born and raised in Texas, and Cali swag and…

Thank you!

These were great reads!! Thanks for taking the time to type this up.

I have noticed the same as a half black/half white female. I went to a predominantly white high school, and I was considered fat even though I was at a perfectly healthy weight. The boys at my school were not interested in me either. However, once I got my driver's license and started venturing into the dating scene…

YUM!

Thank you! I just recently joined a gym, but I'm a total procrastinator and a teensy bit scared of the giant weight room. Sigh.. the women's fitness center upstairs doesn't even have a squat rack so I guess I just need to suck it up and quit being a baby.

So, for someone very far from those fitness goals that you outlined, would doing something like stronglifts or starting strength not be a good idea? I still find body weight exercises to be pretty darn difficult!

Don't feel like you're cheating! You're still working it, regardless!

HAHA This stuff is the worst!

I was thinking the same thing!! Way to go!!

Awesome work! You should be so proud :flowerforyou:

Don't have any great advice (although, a lot of the replies are pretty solid), but I just wanted to let you know that I feel the same way quite often. I'm hoping "it gets better" as well. :flowerforyou:

I've been so frustrated lately.. I'm tall and any little loss doesn't show. I've had too many eff it days to count since I've started, but I'm so glad to call you a MFP friend. You're just beautiful and funny as all get out! Congrats lady, you look great!

Ugh thank you for posting this! I want to work out at 5AM so badly, but every time I do, I am ay too tired and grouchy to go to school all day and then be a good mom once I pick up my babies. I'll just try to shcedule my workouts around my classes.

Too hard to get it in your nose

I can't find my recipe, but we make a sweet potatoe turkey meatloaf. We use barbecue sauce instead of the other tomato based sauce that usually goes into meatloaf. Oh em gee!

AWESOME!! That's one h3ll of a NSV!

Way to go! You should be very proud :flowerforyou:

Saw another student-parent last week at a little function for our kids.. "How's the diet thing going?" (while looking me up and down disapprovingly)\ Me: "well, it's going better than yours I suppose" :happy: Ugh.. and when people notice that you are eating right, they sure feel okay to criticize your meals. Um, I'm not…

Beautiful!! Way to go!

I love this post! I've been really focused on changing my thoughts these past 3 weeks. The mental smackdown I was doling out to myself daily was interfering with my well-being. I had to chill out and focus on changing habits. I do weigh myself every day because I love numbers, but I only log it once a week. Right now, I'm…

You look amazing my friend!! What a gorgeous gal :happy:

Those after pics are FIERCE! You're scaling mountains! How cool is that?! Congratulations!

Awesome!! Your progress is amazing!

Confession time- I was on week 4, and then I quit. My squats were killing my hips, and I'm kind of a chicken to ask anyone in the gym for help. I already used my orientation to strength training that comes free with a membership (of course she told me an hour of cardio 6x/week and light weights/high reps UGHHH) and I don't…
