I walk and climb stairs during my morning and afternoon breaks, and then I walk 2 miles at lunch. I work in a 9-story building and this month my department is doing a stair challenge - I currently have 274 flights of stairs for February!

My 1st ah-ha moment was in 2010 - I was the heaviest I'd ever been and saw some pictures of me that made me feel so ashamed of myself. I lost 75 pounds and managed to keep it off until 2015 when I got divorced and couldn't be a stay-at-home-mom anymore. I've gained back 40 of the 75 pounds and am feeling pretty…

I did the 17 DD 5 years go and lost 75 pounds. Kept it all off until a year ago and I've gained 30 pounds back. Going to start the 17 DD again starting next week.

My husband and I are thinking about starting P90X3 soon. Where did you guys buy the program, and how much did you pay? Have you been following the meal plan?

I did Ripped in 30 after the 30 Day Shred. Got great results with Ripped in 30!

I am 5'2" and started at 213 pounds. I am now 138 and would like to get down to 130, though these last 8 pounds seem near impossible! My body might be comfortable where it is, but I keep trying!

Last night we had healthy eggplant parmesan from the 17 Day Diet book. Baked and dipped the eggplant in egg whites instead of breadcrumbs. Luckily my kids will eat it, too! Tonight we are having Spicy Asian Lettuce Wraps from Cooking Light!

Passover sucks! I was raised Catholic and though I converted to Judaism 10 years ago I still have a hard time adjusting. I tend to not count calories during Passover and I hate limiting my boys.

My mother-in-law can't cook pasta from the directions on the box (she cooks NOTHING) and my mom has passed away. Eat whatever deliciousness your mother-in-law cooks for you and repent for a few days later!!

You look amazing!! You should be very proud of yourself for this great accomplishment!

I had always been 50-70 pounds heavier than my husband. I am now 10-15 pounds lighter than he is. I can now run and jump into his arms, and side-by-side we look really good together. It's wonderful to now be his "little lady" but I would love him regardless of his weight as he has always loved me regardless of mine. His…

We just left Phx yesterday after spending a week there visiting my husband's family (he is from Tempe). Guess we were there the right week since it was 75 the whole time!!

Chocolate and really anything sweet. You can put cakes, candy, chocolate, etc in front of me and I'll never eat it. Now chips, on the other hand, are a different story!

What a fantastic story! You look amazing and should be VERY proud of yourself!

Homemade Chinese noodles and eggrolls on Christmas Eve!

I'm 5'2" and weigh 138 pounds. I'm a size 5/6 for jeans (darn these big thighs!) and a size 4 in dresses. Goal weight is 130.

Trader Joe's Candy Cane Green tea - yum!!

I get all of my jeans at Maurices. I am 5'2" they have jeans in short and extra short. The jeans I buy there are $29.

Wow, $350/month is quite a bit for 2 people! My husband and I are not on food stamps (and don't judge those who are) and my husband is a successful university faculty member but we strictly budget each month. And we have 2 children. We budget $400/month for food and we eat very clean/healthy. We buy extra meat to freeze…

I have lost 75 pounds (from 213 pounds to 138 - size 16 to size 4!) and the whole time I haven't counted calories on Saturdays. I drink alcohol and eat what I want on those days. Every other day I count calories and exercise and stay within my calorie allowance. I guess it's a personal decision but it has worked well for…

I allow myself some potato chips on Saturday only. The rest of the week I eat clean.

Thanks! I think I will try the diet break and then get back on track =)

No, I haven't taken a diet break (ever!).

My measurements are mostly the same as they have been for the past 4 weeks, except that my waist has gone up 1/2". I've opened my food diary so you can see how I eat. For cardio I do 45 minutes on the stairstep and 15 minutes on the treadmill. I usually do walk/run intervals on the treadmill. I also do a cycling class…

My hands have gotten really thin, but I'm most surprised by my poor little boobs. They have disappeared!

Pinot grigio is my favorite! On a bad (or good - LOL) night I'll easily drink a bottle. Tonight, though, I'm having grapefruit vodka and diet sprite - YUM! I've lost 75 pounds while still drinking and I don't plan to give up now!

Alcohol and pizza...because they go so well together! =)

I'm also 5'2 and 138 pounds. I have always had a smaller waist and bigger hips and thighs. My waist is 27.5". I also have a big lower tummy from my 2 c-sections.

I just did Day 1 of Level 1 of Ripped in 30 today. Finished 30DS on Tuesday. Today seemed easy to me and I'm hoping that it gets harder. But I love Jillian's workouts.
