Clothes definitely but also feeling winded all the time not being able to just do all the active things I like to do. I would get tired tossing around a foot ball with my boyfriend. I was sick of feeling trapped in my own body!

Robin the map is awesome!! :) I'm a day late on this (: but it felt really good to accomplish some things at work. People underestimate me and it is nice to prove them wrong and show that I can do big things. I love working with my clients to think more strategically about their business. It is a great feeling!

you make a good point about it being a marathon. It's so hard not to look at it as a sprint, I think we ALL want to see results right away. But you are so right it's one day at a time and all about a healthy lifestyle. Thanks for the encouragement !!! :)

You gals are encouraging me to get out for my workouts. Last night I ran and went for a bike ride even though it was late. Today I ran twice as far then…

NSV!! My boyfriend told me that while snuggling this morning I seemed smaller! Ha I like my clothes fitting better but THIS was great to hear :)

Great Kerri!!! So glad the new way is working!!! :smile:

Positive thought of the day!! As I make these healthy changes to my life it warms my heart to think I am helping my friends and family. Not even meaning to, these people that I love so much are eating healthier and moving more. I love it!! It's another great reason to keep going!

i should mention i did this without dates the 2nd time around :)

It's definitely different for everyone :) For my I tried setting goals with dates and it just frustrated me. So I set mini goals for every few pounds (see below and/or my profile). Then for each goal I thought of something I wanted, that I felt I would work for. These changed for me, depending on what motivated me at the…

Lots of peole say things like that and I'm just not sure I buy it. You have to play around with it and try different things. Eating healthier is key may need to up your calories or lower them. For me it's been a quality issue vs a quantity problem. As I fix the quality of my food (eating more whole food less processed etc)…

Definitely do this!

Focus on making healthy changes and becoming a healthier you. The weight may not fall off you immediately , but it Will come off. and by adjusting your lifestyle you are much much more likely to keep it off (vs dropping 10 lb a week starving or doing some crazy fad diet)

I haven't been excited to post my weight until today!! 174!! I'm down 2.8 from last week (and about the last month!! :happy:

For everyone trying to get in the habit of taking a multivitamin, I thought I'd share what worked for me: 1st) I put the bottle of vitamins somewhere I know I'll see it everyday, for me its by my cell phone charger. 2nd) I add it to my diary (in snacks) in advance every day (so for the next day) so I feel obligated to take…
