I started heavy lifting 70lbs from goal, I am now 35lbs from goal and it has been wonderful! Now as the fat is coming off I am seeing muscles peaking through! I still do cardio but have incorporated heavy lifting into my daily routine. My weight does not fluctuate as bad as it did when I was on a more cardio based routine,…

Day one is the most important day!!! You can do it!!

Yay I am glad I fixed the image issue!!! Thank you for the encouragement!! I cannot wait to read your success story it will happen faster then you expect :)

Smile!

I have this same issue, I am thinning out everywhere but my midsection, it is finally starting to shrink but it is taking its sweet time doing it! Keep at it! It will come off in due time!

I use mostly metal and alot of Clutch for my workouts. Have to have music!

Feel free to add me, this is a up and down, curvy, bumpy path full of stumbles and falls but you can do it!!

I still drink red wine but have skimmed it down to only a glass two nights a week. When I really get into rhythm with logging my foods and drinks I discover I don't want that glass of wine as much for the amount of calories it is when I worked so hard that morning at the gym! I had alot of trouble cutting back on it at…

Smile, arms :)

This! ^^^ Always remember this journey is yours alone and every triumph is yours! I remind myself that I want to be healthy and stick around until I am 90 so I can bug the piss out of my kids well into their adult hood. You CAN do it, just remember this is a life long change not a diet!

@ herblackwings......I just squealed with girlish delight at your ticker image! LOVE IT!

I work in the food service industry it is a very labor intensive job but when you set up your MFP it asks you how active you are during your normal day to day. Did you set it to very active? If so I would not log any work or cleaning. If you set it to inactive then you need to be logging work because it makes a huge…

Pretty name but nope :)

@peachy- Debbie

You can do it....just remember it is for you! I finally put my foot down and told the rest of the world FU I am going to loss weight for me and for the first time I stuck with it! Think of every pound as a personal victory against the world trying to shove you down!

Thank you ladies :)

Beat me to it also. :) This is just more of the same parenting arguments I breastfed why can't you, your a bad parent. My child eats a perfect vegan diet why can't yours, your a bad parent. My child is in three after school sports why can't yours, your a bad parent. My child can read chapter books at age 1 why can't yours,…

I probably shouldn't but I am going to throw in my opinion. I have 4 children, none of which are obese ( one is underweight and on a extra high calorie diet due to medical issues) Most children are EXTREMELY picky, and the better their palette the more picky they are. The most parents can do is offer healthy choices and go…

Really named your kitty after the last unicorn?!?!?! Awesome! and TNG and Princess bride! sending friend request now!

I am a mommy of 4 ( youngest is 5 months) and have 70 more to lose! Always looking for mommy buddies on here :)

5'8 here, still have 70 more pounds to go :) Always up for motivating buddies on here!

1. Shirts I used to wear are now more like sundresses. 2. Wedding rings were way too big ( had to resize them down 3 sizes and now they are loose again) 3. Bath towels wrap all the way around me. 4. I am ALWAYS cold. 5. My hips no longer touch the arm rests when I sit down in a movie theatre seat!

I get those same pains but in both legs right above the knee. It is the tendons that connect from your hip to your kneecap. My doc says to be very careful because it can easily get further injured. It requires surgery to fix but most insurance will not cover it until you are in your 40s. I work my quads just very…
