OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU. I love ALLLLL of you. Tank you all so much! I promise tomorrow Im going to get on here and write a longggg comment detailing my workouts and diet as much as I can to answer questions asked here. I did this without starving, during one of the hardest times in my life and while being full time in school…

the room has progression as well oddly enough... lol!

THANK YOU GUYS SOSOSOSOSOSOOOOO MUCH! and again, sorry for the low pants and messy room!!! hahaha. I was trying to see the lower belly progression but should have pulled em up for the side shot!!! :P

Get it girlll!!!! :smile:

YEAH! each little one makes a difference! it's not as noticeable along the way but MAN when I look at the 155 compared to the 135 it SURE IS!! THANKS!:)

oh wow, the 135 pics are bigger... oops! it didn't look like QUITE as much a*s was hanging out when I was looking at em smaller too hahaha! oops. THANK YOU GUYSSSS!!!

There were moments where the path got narrow and slowed the crowd but I will say going too fast on those parts wouldn't really be possible anyway (steep, slippery, ect) so I wasn't really bothered by it. And most of the obstacles there was room go go next to another person who wasn't moving as fast as you'd like. All in…

There are definitely a few obstacles where you have to climb/pull yourself up... but I think most people with any reasonable amount of fitness can get through it... I know I used my legs to push up more than my arms to pull on a lot of the walls. Go with a friend so you have some help... you'll be fine! :)

Ha! Thank you! She is from Louisville KY too! :)

Has anyone ever tried Tough Mudder?? - thinking about doing that next! :) It looks crazy!

Thanks guys! I highly recommend trying the warrior dash, even if you're new to running... The comradery was amazing.:) If its within driving distance for me, I'll go with you!

Thanks! Good to know Ive been doing it right.. was a little scared for a sec there. I do track fibre and often if Im over 100grams on carbs I'll remind myself to subtract from whatever total I have in the fibre column. I try to keep it under 100g of carbs daily but am thinking to maybe take it down to 50 for a bit... so…

So in the UK they do the math for you... but in the US we need to subtract the fiber listed from the total carbs listed on the label. Is that right?

:wink: I just want it to be really easy for my husband to throw me around....

^ This!! haha :)

Congratulations on becoming a fitter you! I am running 5K right now and can't WAIT until I can do 10! The human body is amazing... yours has become more efficient and therefor the same workout that used to give you a higher calorie burn will now give you less. Don't be discouraged by this! You should be really proud of…

WAY TO GO BIRTHDAY GIRL!!! Amazing job! :)

I'm in the light blue dress. We drove my 64 Commet to Junior Prom! :)I was 120lbs. :smile:

Oh my gosh I love you. Thank you:)

Allllllll of your comments are SOOO ENCOURAGING! Doing this ” the right way” is such a difficult, slow and patience testing challenge and it means so much to hear that ANY DIFFERENCE at all is visible! I think sometimes the less we have to lose, the harder it can be to stay motivated to do it...and your kind comments are…

Thanks! At our height I feel like the 140s are much more "comfortable"...I'm definitely WAY happier with my body... so, it's not necessarily ACTUALLY any harder to get from here to the 130s as the last 10lbs were, but it's just harder to stay motivated to! Like in the 150s it felt more "necessary" where as now I don't feel…

Thank you! I feel like I can see it on my upper body SO much faster... but my butt and thighs take longer! Im doing SO SO many lunges and squats to work on it but it alllll comes down to body fat percentage right? :)

PS- I'm 5''7 for those who were wondering! :smile:

Just a little bit better! LOL! My son is a slob! (yes I did just blame it on the 9 year old)...but in truth... it's also because I hate laundry! Maybe by the 125 pics the room will be spotless!! Ha. I wouldn't bet a cookie on it or anything though... :P

Thank you all SO MUCH! :) (I cant believe I just put a bare tummy/sports bra photo of myself up on the INTERNET!!!) haha. :)

I think the fact that people use the acronym IS to some degree being "polite" about it and not "all out in the open" like someone posted above... people tend to write TOM rather than "I'M ON MY PERIOD!!" (Which I personally still wouldn't see a problem with) but is still pretty courteous as far as digression goes. I mean…

Well.. I AM a cancer, whatz your sign?? *wink* haha

Seaweed (I'm being totally serious) :)
