So I'm nowhere near done....and this is just progress over 12 weeks of stronglifts.....And while I didn't lose ANY weight over those 12 weeks I do like my results so far.... hope it motivates your friend!! i LOVE lifting heavy. I would try to resize but I think you get the idea...lol...sorry!

I'm SO impressed with all you ladies!!! I can't wait to have been lifting for as long as some of you and actually have "respectable" weights :) That said...I posted this on the main success stories but wanted to share here too :) I'm a group lurker ;) This is after a loose 6 weeks on stronglifts....can't wait to see what…

Thanks!! I'm loving stronglifts and it's AMAZING to me how quickly my strength has increased! Still running but not training for anything again until July...so heavy lifting is my main focus right now :) that and some mobility work!

I like carrots and spinach - both raw. I WILL if I have to eat snow peas raw or asparagus cooked. I choose not to. lol. I count potatoes as healthy but a starch...my fruits are limited to apples. Raisins occassionally, and bananas and grapes if they are in the proper stage or ripeness. I have to have smooth sauces on…

Wow!! This is flatter than Columbus half?! lol...Ummm...I don't mind hills but I didn't think this was all that flat! I will be doing the columbus half this fall! Awesome job on your time! I finished in 2:23...I'd love to come in under 2:17!!! I started strength training after the half and will maintain my running (once…

I started training for a half at the end of january of this year - I ran it two weeks ago (almost) and in that time I lost 17 lbs? Ran 4x's/week, no cross training. Since running the half I have taken up heavy lifting and will maintain my runs/weekly distance until training for the fall half starts up :) I'm the taller one…

I ALWAYS try things on when I shop there because, as pp's have said, it's very inconsistent - BUT it's always within a size range....I'm never oddly low in size or really HIGH...I can basically eye ball and know if I need to go up or down a size, prior to the fitting room - not always though. I LOVE h&m :)
-
I just saw your response! How'd you do?? I did register and run it!! I trained on my own (well, with a friend who lives no where near me, so we followed the same training schedule). I shockingly made it through training without any injuries!! It was surprisingly "fun" and I will be doing Columbus Half in the fall!!! My…

Order the pizza!

I love seeing all these real changes!! For that I'd have to go pretty far back...to after baby # 2....instead I'm starting with after baby #3....unfortunately (or fortunately?) I never carry much of my extra weight up top....so I don't know if these will actually show anything! Going to see though :) Maybe I'll have to do…

Yo look great! And I LOVE those pants!

You just described me after my run last night...intervals...I was a hot mess. This is why I no longer workout at our work gym and do most of my stuff at home - after work. And then I shower before bed, blow dry my hair straight, then straighten it in the am before returning to the real world. HOT MESS.

Pizza....and Chips, and McDonald's french fries... :) So we do pizza once a week, I make it a healthier one, and RUN for a really long time that day :)

disclaimer - I could never purposely have an ED (like bulimia)... BUT - this would be awesome...lol. I keep hoping for a good old fashioned 5 day virus. And I'm only SORT of kidding.

bump - nothing to add, but I need the motivation!

I really like the taste of the chocolate slim fast. I usually have them in my fridge for teh day (once every month or so) that I just ran out of time and I'll drink that. I have never actually tried to replace breakfast and lunch and do the plan though. It keeps me full long enough the times I do have to have them, but I…

My face is longish and always "skinnier"...I actually had a friend tell me not to lose any more weight from my face! WTH...i'm BOTTOM heavy....it'll go from where it goes from...EVENTUALLY maybe it will go from my thighs and butt ;) Really though!
-
I almost always crave salt....So I usually make sure it fits my calories and then up my water ;) Sometimes you just have to!!! There is also a thing that shows what you can eat when you are craving certain foods/groups....I don't know how well it works, because I haven't tried....…

Way to go o the weight loss!!! I had done the old WW successfully as well - but didn't like their revamp (almost tried after my third child).....Keep at it!!!!
