Ladies... THANK YOU!! I will put those tips into action and pray my energy returns soon. That's been the hardest part.. i'm such a go-getter and a beast in the gym but lately... no thank you!

Add me! I'm 30 and working on prep currently for my wedding/honeymoon and wont be stopping there! :D

You look fantastic!! The difference is incredible...good job!

I take tons of pictures along the way and refer back to them when I'm feeling my motivation slip. I print them and post them in my home... I put new pics next to old ones. If you don't have any pictures, write down exactly why you want to lose the weight. Write down every single reason... put it somewhere safe and read it…

ZX14: whats the ZX14 stand for??? Cute haircut!

EMTFreakGirl: Mad respect for you! I'm a nurse and we can't do what we do without you guys being on the front lines :)

I am not familiar with this condition...but would slightly increasing your sugar intake help? If you're depleting your stores by working out maybe this option could help? Definitely ask your doctor, though :)

I haven't drank cows milk in years. Soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk....ALL usually have more calcium and vitamin D than cows milk. The cows milk is so processed that all of those things are added during processing anyway...you're not getting the "real deal" nutrient either way. It's best to go for the unsweetened…

I love Silk Creamer. It's creamier than regular soy or almond milk so it's much more like the "real thing" in coffee. :)

Your meals should be equal...that's an odd thing to hear from a doctor. Either way... my typical breakfast is egg whites with some pico de gallo or yummy salsa with some steel cut oats. I buy the egg whites in the carton and usually 'nuke em at work for convenience. Works perfectly! Avoid breads like the plague. If you…

I'm vegetarian (not vegan only because I have egg whites in the morning and for a nice snack). I love baked tofu, veggie burgers, quinoa (lots of ways to prepare that), beans, etc etc. Usually my lunch consists of some sort of tofu or veggie burger with a complex carb and lots of veggies. Snacks are protein shake with…

I am the same! I have ALWAYS hated my legs. Then I'd feel guilty because I wasn't doing anything about it....until recently. :) Anyway, I have noticed a change in them. It's happening...finally. I'm down almost 44 pounds from my heaviest and I have about 25 pounds left to go. It wasn't until recently I started seeing…

My boyfriend is the reason I got into fitness last year. I always hated the way I looked but never knew what to do to fix it. He gave me the tools and knowledge and now we've gotten closer because of it. I am the number one reason I'm doing this...for ME. But hearing him say he's proud of me is priceless :)

Fantastic!! Thank you, Mike!

I've been at a set "1200 calories a day" from MFP since almost the beginning. I'm down almost 30 pounds and I feel wonderful. Recently I've stopped counting calories and I'm just eating 6 CLEAN meals per day and putting ZERO junk in my body. I think this is much more important than counting calories. If you eat 1200…

Great! Accepted!

Beautiful!!! Great job!! That's so inspirational

I've always been very curvy. I've always had a waist but plenty of butt and thigh and boobs haha. My highest weight was 211 pounds...I now weighed in at 172 and change today. I proudly wear skinny jeans and get many compliments. I could NEVER have worn them before...they were just weird looking.

Proud vegetarian here! I'd love some friends to add here so we can inspire each other and get meal ideas, too. :D
