Hi all! I'm Serena and from the beautiful but lately Smokey state of Montana. I started the lchf about 2 months ago. I researched a lot and decided to go with the keto diet as it seemed the more carbs I cut the less my ibs bothers me. I feel so much better and have lost almost 20 lbs so far. Been on mfp for quite a while…

Feel free to add me. Been trying the low carb/Keri diet for about a month. Not sure I'm doing it all right but taking it one day at a time. The more support for each other the better!

Hi all, I am back! I fell off the wagon some time back and it has come around to pick me back up. I am ready to get rid of this last 25 pounds and darn it I am going to do it. No more excuses, no more feeling bad. I hurt my achilles tendon a while back, so I am still nursing it back to health. I will have to take some of…

I watched that show as well. I just went out and got the book as well. So far, it is an interesting read. I am just getting started, but was very intrigued by it. We shall see...

I love the gel nails. A friend of mine uses it and it is the only thing that I use now. She is also so creative when it comes to drawing some cool designs on my nails. I am hopefully going to make it to see her tomorrow cause I have not been to see her since before x-mas. I still have x-mas lights on my nails. Time for a…

GREAT JOB!!! Keep it up!

love this weeks challenges. I have not dropped any weight since the start and missed posting last week, but I have had a ton going on the last week. I am just glad I did not gain anything. Anyways, I think I will make some homemade chili for the challenge. I will post the recipe after I cook it. Hopefully I will see a…

I love this thread. It is very motivating to see other shorties lose weight and look awesome. I started my weightloss at about 175 lbs. I am down to about 148. I am kind of stuck at that darn number, but have not gained so I consider that a positive thing too. I still have a ways to go and I will make it, it just takes…

I live about 4 hours from there. It is awesome to see as I had never seen it up until 09. And I have lived in MT all my life.

ok lets try this again in normal size ugh August 2009 Jan. 2010 Sorry if they are large sized. I can't figure out how to resize them

Well this week has turned out ok for me. I have actually found a work out schedule that works for me and my crazy days. I may have to exercise at night, but at least I get it in. I have gone the last three nights for at least an hour and feel so much better. I have started cutting myself off of the cigarette habit that I…

I ran into the same thing when I first started going to the gym. It took me several weeks to go in there on my own. I would repeat to myself everytime I walked in that everyone else was there for the same reason~ To get healthy, stay healthy. Now I can go to the gym without fear of who is watching me. I have even found…

Forgot my starting weight :) SW: 148.2 Up 2lbs since end of last challenge grr. GW: 140

I like the challenges, great ideas April! Week one challenges are great. As for the one thing bad habit I am going to kick it has to be smoking. I have set a date to do this Jan 7. I chose this date because I will be moving my work location. I will then have no association with "stepping" out to smoke, as the new location…

I would like to join this group if I could. :) This sounds like it is really something that could keep me motivated.

I think that a buddy system could be interesting. I think it would be good as we would all be held accountable to someone else. I know that having a friend that goes to the gym and is in the process of losing weight as well has helped me be more accountable for what I am eating as well as the exercises. This is just a…

Well Team I did not drop any weight this week, but it is also TOM so not suprised. Just glad I didn't see the weight gain. I have to say I have not been moving as much as I should so it is time to get my head back in the game. Well I hope that everyone has a wonderful Christmas SW: 152 CW: 146 Total loss 6 lbs.

Well ladies, I forgot to add my weekly weigh in for tonight for week 7. I will put it in with next weeks weigh in. It sounds like many of us are struggling with stresses of the holidays coming up as well as keeping focused. I think that one of the challenges for this week coming up is to find a way to remove some of the…

Evening everyone, I hope everyone is doing well with all this crazy weather lately. We normally get snow during winter and it was so warm yesterday it was raining instead. It made for some fun roads this morning. I have not done worth a darn this last week. I have been fighting a sore throat and could not get rid of it.…

Congrats, and way to go! you are truly a motivation for many.

I too noticed that with myself. I was reading about sugar intake in a magazine and changed my settings. I too was not loosing any weight, but once I started watching the sugar intake, I again started dropping the pounds. Good luck and I hope it helps :)

I get up in the morning before my son does to do my exercise. It took me a while to adjust to getting up early, but now it is almost like clock work. If I am not able to do it in the morning, I work out after my son goes to bed. I think that my body does better and I feel better when I exercise in the morning, but being a…

Great Job! you look awesome!

Great Job!!! You look amazing, and younger. Keep up the good work.

love this Have lost an average 2 year old!!!

Wow I have been slacking on posting on here. My apologies. My son has been sick for the past 3 weeks, and now its me. I am thinking I may as well just start scheduling a weekly visit with the family doctor, as we have been there more than anywhere. :) Anyways. I am not sure what my last weight was on here but I do know it…

Afternoon all, hope Thanksgiving treated everyone well. I did not feel the best so was not much of a go getter. Feeling a little bit better today, so I think I will head to the gym here soon. So I think my birth control pills are having an effect on my weight loss. I take a pill for 3 weeks straight and the last week is a…
