NUMBER 7 (lucky, right?) I'm Katie, and I started here back in January (when I was still pregnant with my son). I had 2 kids in less than 2 years, and am working to get healthy by the time I turn 40. CW 235 GW 230 I've been bad this weekend, but will be heading to the gym this afternoon to get a good work out in before my…

JEALOUS!!!

l'll join and try my best, because I know it's good for me. But I do love my whiskey...and I go back to teaching next week which always puts a stress on me. But hey....I did twice for 10 months while pregnant, so I think I can do a month! :smile:

Same as above. But it's something no one could could decide for me...I had to do it myself. You need to let her decide for herself.

OK! Weekly Goal: 4000 Mon: calories burned 662 (60 minutes elliptical) Tues: calories burned 823 (60 minutes elliptical, 25 min walk) Wed: calories burned 525 (75 minute walk) Thur: calories burned (how they were burned) Fri: calories burned (how they were burned) Sat: calories burned (how they were burned) Sun: calories…

8/1 - 249 8/8 - No clue since I was on vacation! :) 8/15 - 245.5 8/22 - 244 Down 5 pounds!

You rock! You are an inspiration to me. Thank you and bless you for serving our country!

I'm in! My ultimate goal is another 85 by January 2014, so 30 by Christmas would get me quite a ways to my goal. 244 now, 214 by Christmas! Katie

I have a crazy 2 year old and a smiley 6 month old. Having 2 kids in under 2 years really wrecked my weight and body, but I'm making progress! Sending a friend request! Katie

Oh, so sorry to hear that! How could a nurse ask that....duh!!! I hope you had a wonderful bike ride. Keep up the hard work, and having been through a divorce myself, I wish for you all the best. I know my divorce was awful at the time, but I am much better for it now! Katie

beautiful!

Agreed!

Wow is right! What a difference...you have a beautiful smile!

You guys rock! Aug 1: 249 Aug 8 (Aug 10): 248 Aug 15: 245.5 Down 3.5 total...can't complain! :smile: Katie P.S. I almost put down 145.5 for today. Whoops! (I wish!) :laugh:

I also have 2: my little girl is 2 1/2, and I have a 6 month old son. 2 kids in under 2 years = too much extra weight! :( I'll send you a friend request! Katie

Hi BB, I'm similar to you in weight, and I've been struggling since I got married 5 years ago. And then I had 2 kids!! While I was PG with my son, who was born this past February, my husband joined Jenny Craig and lost 25 pounds (cruel, I know!). I didn't think it would be for me because I'm not too keen on just eating…

Way to go!!!! :happy:

I'm still working on a plan. I am usually at school by 7, and I have 2 very young children. I'm not sure mornings would work for me, even though I loved it years ago when I'd go at 5. But trying to get 2 kids up, dressed, and delivered to grandparents and then get myself to work at 7 would be awful! And my husband leaves…

Hi all! I'm late in checking in because I've been on vacation from July 29 until yesterday. So: August 1: 249 August 8 (10): 248 Down 1 pound. Can't really complain...a loss is a loss, right?

I did the same thing today. I ate lots of pizza today at lunch, washed down with a nice cold beer. And it wasn't a light beer either. Then had a cheeseburger for dinner. Few fruits and veggies, and least compared to what I had been doing. I'm paying for it now because it's 8:30 PM and I feel like crap...totally bloated.…

Perfect as I'm on vacation in the Minnesota northwoods! We live outside here! Thanks!

Hi all! I'm a middle school teacher, and I've had 2 kids in 2 years so the weight has poured on. I had my son in February, and while I'm close to my pre-pregnancy weight, I'd like to lose a lot more to return to the healthy weight I was in my 20s. I'm currently at 249, so I'm hoping to get to 239 by September (and then…

Please count me in! I just finished a summer school session, and am wanting to just focus on losing as much as possible before school starts back up in September. :smile:

Me...2 babies in less than 2 years! Please feel free to add me!

38 and WILL be at a healthy weight and BMI by the time I turn 40! :happy: Feel free to add me as a friend!

I've had 2 c-sections in the past 2 years, the most recent 5 months ago, plus an appendectomy 3 months ago! I'm not as worried about my "muffin top" as I am about just losing the extra weight to be healthy. I just want to keep up with my crazy kids! Best of luck!

:happy: Thanks for that! KT

Agreed! I have a crazy energetic 2 year old, and a 5 month old who wants to be held all the time! My husband and I take turns going to the gym, and our gym also has a great kids center that I take my 2 year old to (my son needs to be 6 months before he can go). And I take both of them on long walks with our dog in the…

I kinda have the same feeling as you...I really want to lose some major weight, but I love to have a drink or 2. My solution over the past 2 weeks has been that I allow myself a drink only on the days that I go to the gym for a solid workout. That gets me to the gym, and provides both the reward for going, plus I can…
