Very cool!!! Congrats!!!

You are awesome. Love this so much!!! Congrats on everything girly! It's only going to get better from here! You got this!

Hi neighbor! I'm in FL too. Congrats on getting into school!

Oh how true this is! lmao!

Im in FL!!!! In the orlando area though.

LMAO!! That's an interesting idea. That seriously made me giggle!

I have been working out at work for a few months now! The last office building I worked at had a gym. I would run a mile on my lunch break and that left me with enough time to shower and get ready for work again with only an hour's lunch. If I didn't feel like doing that, I would do the stairs. I was on the 10th floor so I…

I have never had the willpower to stop mid-binge. The fact that you are recognizing this and able to stop in order to write something about it means you also have the power to either put that food away or throw it in the garbage. The only thing that would keep me from eating something was to throw it away. I have suffered…

http://www.fitday.com/fitness-articles/fitness/weight-loss/4-double-chin-exercises.html lol! I don't know if it's necessary, but if you're feeling ambitious, why not!

Ooooo I like this one! I like how it has the different pockets. I think you're right about it being a good fit due to what I need to carry. You say it can slip around...is it able to fit in a way where it doesnt bounce too much? Given the size and bulk of it, is it distracting to run in? I do like the SPibelt as well…

I would love to be able to find pants with pockets that work for me, but all the pants with pockets are that weird nylon or whatever they are. Im not a fan of those but maybe I'll have to get used to it. Ill check out all your suggestions though. Thank you!

lmao oh man I wish I had a gym with a daycare by me! I don't blame you for this one!!!

Do they bounce around a lot when you run? I'm worried it may be bothersome. I'm not sure if the backpacks would be better either. I'll check Amazon, thank you!

Sleep. I'm up at 4:50am every morning. I get about 7 hours of sleep and my body does ok with that.

^^^accurate.

I plan on trying Shakeology soon. I've tried the chocolate one before. It takes a little getting used to, but if you look at the ingredients it's pretty impressive. No chemicals, just a lot of good stuff and superfoods. My coworker says the greenberry flavor is pretty good too.

Just start doing it. Just suck it up, put on some workout pants, and start doing it. Then tomorrow, do the same thing. And the next day. And after 4 or 5 days it will get easier. After two weeks you will WANT to work out. You'll feel guilty if you don't. After a few months it becomes habit and a part of life. Start with…

WOW! Thanks for the responses guys! I think I got at least 20 friend requests! You guys rock! I can't wait to see what 9 months from now brings! WOOOO! :)

I just found 100 reasons you should be motivated to workout. I kind of want a poster of this: http://www.sparkpeople.com/blog/blog.asp?post=100_reasons_you_should_work_out_today My biggest reasons: 1. Look amazing in skinny jeans 2. Be able to run without looking like a jogging jello mold 3. Get rid of the pain in my back,…

I think having your heart in it is a huge part of it. It's REALLY hard to get started if you aren't in the right frame of mind. Congrats on making the decision to get back into it! It really is the hardest part.

I don't follow any crazy diets, I just eat less. I try to keep my calories in check, but I'll eat whatever I want. I stick to protein, veggies and fruits for dessert 90% of the time..but if I plan for it I'll allow myself wine and chocolate too. I have tried so many fad diets and I just hate them all. The 1500 calorie diet…

Are you sure it didn't work? I have linked runkeeper and MFP and there weren't like fireworks going off or anything that really jumped out at me to let me know it worked. I just had to test it. I ran, saved it, and it posted to MFP! Try it with your armband. You may have to play around with things a bit. Since it tracks…

That looks really good! Oh man, that might be my next soup on my list!

"What was your reason?" I have never been a huge fast food fan, but I would do to drive throughs every now and then because of the convenience of it. The biggest thing that turns me off about it is the low quality meats, fillers, and scary chemicals they put in it. Read about how chicken nuggets are made. Read about Pink…

Soup is always good. I just made this not too long ago and still have some in my freezer. It was amazing! I wonder if there is a way to make it lower calorie though....maybe ground turkey and no pasta? So good on a cold night! http://www.food.com/recipe/olive-garden-pasta-e-fagioli-17566?layout=desktop 1 lb ground beef 1…

If I want my tea and coffee a little creamier, Ive started using Blue Diamond vanilla coconut almond milk (70 calories a cup). Not as coconutty as pure coconut milk, but not watery like almond milk. Works fairly well as a creamer! And I use Pure Via Stevia sweetener...1 packet. :)

I know what you mean about time. I had to make SERIOUS adjustments to fit my workouts in. And I mean s-e-r-i-o-u-s. I'm a single mom of two young boys, and I work 40+ hours a week. Free time is not something I have. The ONLY thing I had to give up was sleep in order to make time. You talk about lack of time? yeah. That was…

Let's do this girl! I know how hard it is. I've been battling my weight for 15 years. I went through a horrible divorce myself, and am now a single mom of two young boys. Worrying about my own health has been on the back burner for some time. A year ago I lost 65 lbs, but had a couple bad days that threw me off completely,…

You look amazing! Fantastic work! I have 100 lbs to loose myself. It's nice to see people are able to do this! <3 Thanks for sharing!

Hey girl, I feel ya. I have been battling this for 15 years. I lost 65 lbs a year ago and have already gained it back, and then some. I have a goal to drop 100lbs by my birthday in 9 months and FINALLY reach that goal Ive tried to make for 15 years. We can support each other! Anyone else who wants to friend me, feel free…
