Hey! I'm in Brantford, and lookin for MFP friends. I'd love to join you in your journey! -Sonya

Mmm, nothing better than a Red Prince apple.

I've been pregnant for the last 5-6 years...preggers now, so looking at getting back to ME when this one is out! I've just been size 'Preggo' for too long!

I'll come back to this...I was anorexic, and I'm pregnant with my 4th...gotta go to work, but I'll come back to this.

You're such an inspiration! You look like a kid (sorry for the craptastic compliment), but what I mean is that because you have lost the weight, it has taken years off of your appearance, and probably added years to your health and life. I can see it in your face, you are so very proud, and you should be. Thanks for…

Welcome! Well, you're better than me...I still haven't figured out how to post any messages on the message boards! You've come to a great place for motivation, you can add me...but I'm not the best example right now...I'm preggers and GAINING! I can certainly give you 'Hoorahs', as I will need them when I start back at it!…

Kitchener, Ontario CANADA!

They're right...you still practiced self control and moderation. This is not a diet, it's a lifestyle change in which you can exercise a healthy lifestyle through a balance of eating well and burning calories. Sometimes we all need to treat ourselves, but it's funny how our bodies get used to eating the 'good for you…

You look like a sassy hawt mama! Keep up the great work, I bet you feel fantastic as well. It's nice to even show yourself how far you've come and to see a before/after pic to show you the results.

That IS a cool story!

What an inspiration!!! By the way, you look like you're in high school now! Losing all that weight looks great on you, what a beautiful family you have!

Mmm, bald men are in my dreams! Don't get me wrong, I love to run my fingers through a great head of hair, but I'm more attracted to bald men. Naturally bald or shaved. It's cleaner, sexy and a time saver. As long as his head isn't shiny...translucent powder will take care of that! (My husband is a dark bald man, too!)

I've done the first week of 30DS, and only stopped because I found out I was preggers. Anyway, if you are concerned with being too sore, either try it out on a day when you know the next day can be a 'rest' day if you need it, and not a super busy one. Or, try aquatics. Aqua aerobics are MAD cardio, and less pain. I was…

Because it's a waste of time, effort and money for you. If they are given a choice of what you've made, or a pb&j sandwich every night then what nutrition and vitamins are they getting? What are you instilling in your child as far as respecting your parent, and being thankful of what is being made for them? You spent the…

They all eat what I serve. I am not a short order cook, and I don't have any tolerance for picky eaters. You don't like it? You starve, kitchen is CLOSED. Grilled chicken, sweet potatoes and veg always works. Homemade mac/cheese for the kids, added with pureed butternut squash, low sodium/low fat soups, homemade fish/chips…

There's loads of 'playground exercises' you can search for on the net. Take your child to the park, and do some leg raises, abs and pull ups! My sister got RIPPED in University by lifting fabric softener bottles, or pop bottles filled with water or sand. Also, use your 2.5 year old as weights...find a building, toss your…

GOOD FOR YOU! Yah, you know how to parent YOUR child...not them. I'm glad you spoke up for yourself. Hope your little monkey is ok...I'd still give my kids hugs if they were 35, so those men can shut it!

Like it or lump it...I spank my kids. They are MY kids, so anyone can say, 'Oh, spanking your kids is wrong because it teaches them that hitting solves problems...' Well, they aren't YOUR kids! There is no criminal act for disciplining your children, by spanking. There is a line, of course, I don't abuse them. My kids…

Sweety, you're going to put yourself in the hospital. You need protein, carbs and fat. Eating bread, water and multivitamins is not going to get you far...well, as far as the hospital, anyway.

Hosting a non-licensed GUN show...look at those arms!

I should add that my hubby is a Forensic Officer, here in Canada. My children always ask, 'Is daddy sleeping, or is he at work?'. I think it's so cute how they adapt easier than me to his schedule. At least he's uploaded his five week rotating schedule to my iPhone so it's easy for me to plan birthdays/vacations/events.

My husband is a police officer, and has been since I met him. We have three, (almost four!) children, and with juggling his schedule, the kids and my workouts while pregnant, it's nothing less than exhausting! Add me if you'd like, I love other police/ems wives...we're a rare breed!

Big paychecks

If I can see my friends diary, and they are more than 300 cals under, I don't congratulate them...I let them know they should eat more. If they are less than 300, I say 'way to go', or 'yah!' for being so dedicated, and choosing healthy choices.

Red meat and pork are always my barriers. I can never lose weight while eating either of them. Also, cookies. I'm a cookie monster. I find that if they aren't in the house (and I don't bake any), I am not tempted. I have a junk-food junkie husband, and three children...it's hard to toss the things they still eat, so it's…

She's got some great ideas. I like the measuring tape.

Great job, looking GREAT! What an accomplishment, you're an inspiration to everyone!

I just snoop on my friends diaries...

Learn to love yourself first, and enjoy being with just yourself. It's when you find joy in that, is when a person will want to be part of that as well. Smile lots, do good deeds (volunteer) and you feel better about yourself, and in turn someone (the right person) will find you desirable. Concentrate on fulfilling your…

Toby Mac and Kirk Franklin are my fav's. Kirk does one that always got me up in the morning during Uni. I forget the title, though.
