Thank you! At 44, it's a little harder than when I was 25 so I'm really happy :)

Congrats! You can definitely see the difference, and I'm sure if you didn't have a hoodie on you would see it even more. I'm so guilty of that, I love my hoodies/sweatshirts, and love them oversized.

I am a peeing machine when I drink water, I have to make sure I slow down my intake by 6pm so that I don't get up 10x a night! So it's not just you. One thing that my gyn told me is that the older you get, especially after childbirth, the more you need to do the Kegel exercises.…

That's where I got it from!

I'll see that diet water and raise you Water Joe, caffeinated...the one thing I miss about living in NY vs Tennessee.

Yes, at first I thought it had sugar in the bag below but then realized it was a reflection, the bag is empty.

I was just shocked to see it that way...I knew it but seeing the bags full for soda is a great visual. Good thing I've always preferred water anyway...now if they could do that for salad vs chocolate cake they'd really help me! LOL

I work out in the morning, as soon as I get up. For a few reasons--this way I have no time to sit around and think of excuses not to, I feel better afterwards and all day, and because if I leave it for the evening then I get stressed during the day thinking about if I won't have time to fit it in or if I'll be too tired.…

Congrats! I just dropped back below the 200 mark that I SWORE I'd never cross last time--this time I mean it! All downhill from here :)

As all of you, I've had quite a few mean comments (some even back in HS days when I was FAR from overweight, wtf did I believe them for back then???). But the one that takes the cake is my EX-husband about 10 years ago. He coached my son's Little League baseball team and I was there (as I was every single game/practice)…

So many people say to do that, but I never tried it--if I hit a major plateau I guess I would give it a shot but not eating them works for me, so I'm sticking with what works for my body. I just can't get it out of my head that "all that hard work will go down the drain" if I eat them back! Silly I know, but it's just how…

I have a terrible sweet tooth so I sub Special K Chocolate Peanut butter protein bars for snack treats--they are under 200 calories, have 10g protein and vitamins. Or I will eat a Nature Valley chewy trail mix bar. Better than succumbing to the candy!

Exact same thing happened to me when I changed scales last week--only a 2 lb difference but still, it really bugged me! Mostly because it meant I was over a certain weight when I started which for me was a sore point. But I made myself get over it, and the week long plateau afterwards...scale is now moving again. I just…

Absolutely the same movie! I think I know every word LOL Second fave is High Anxiety.

I'd like to join please! I'm on day 16 of a 100 day personal challenge and haven't fallen off the wagon yet, so I'm game! :)

Hi Nancy, I live right near you on LI, welcome :) this site is great for tips and motivation. I am also 43 (will be 44 next week). The thing that works best for me is eating fresh foods, not processed (I guess it mainly limits my sodium), lots of protein (greek yogurt, chicken, turkey are favorites and I try for…

August 25th here! Good luck to us all :)

Hi, my first post! I'm in...my wedding is in August and I'm trying to get down 50 lbs by June/July (before fittings!). I'm down 16 so far. There are several brides to be if you look at my friends list, we all came from wedding bee--the 100 day challenge thread in full figured. :)
