Mom of five....never been a beliver of any diet, shake, cleanse or other "gimmick" to lose weight! I try to eat more good food than bad and keep it all in moderation. Rarely am I below 1500 calories. I have struggled over the winter to get regular exercise, but eating in moderation has kept my weight down...hoping to kick…

Nutro - large breed adult.... and when they get old, Nutro Senior, and when they get fat, Nutro "light" -- and when I run out and forget to go to the store, , , oatmeal or eggs!

Hi! Add me if you wish. I have 5 kids in a 10 year span....I really want to get into running, but will not until my weight is healthy.

Every Monday, my daughter wants a strawberry julius after hockey practice, and my son chocolate milk --- I stop at Dairy Queen on the way home, I don't think twice about not ordering anything.... I am totally over eating "because my kids are" or "because I"m there". I eat when I am hungry, and eat what I want, in…

You are doing so good! Way to go!

Ditto that! Great job to both of you!

^^^^ Kudos to you! Love our underpaid overworked educators! I am a 40 year old mom of 5 (four of them girls!) ages 5-14. Making the time is the hardest part - nothing in a moms life is consistent! Planning is the biggest step - plan your meals, plan your exercise, and plan that you will have bad days, so plan how you will…

^^^Yep, I do the sugar free syrups too- last longer, don't need much, I put 1% milk with it as well, and use good coffee. You dno't need a lot - I think mine is about 45 calories total (2 cups).

The word "truly" People who talk just to hear themselves talk Those who think banning guns will solve the nations problems Irresponsible Parents People who drink a meal replacement or vitamin shake at work every morning, then go to McDonalds for lunch. Thats all today.

You look fabulous! And I bet your toddlers have a lot more energetic and playful mom! Great job!

That is exactly what I did - and still do - also, cut down on ALL your processed foods -- like the lean cuisine and smart one meals, anything "easy" and prepackaged -- once you do that, you won' t be able to eat the fast food, it will taste too salty -- worked for me. Better than eating the fast food, is the feeling of…

Of course I have to be biased to my kiddo's as well: Katie Marie Hannah Lynn Megan Irene Leah Kay Aaron Michael ** I always wanted to change my name (Shannon) to Kelly -- still love that name as well!

Super job -- you look amazing!

Wierd, but I just had one of those "useful tips" emails that said MARSHMALLOWS! I have yet to try it, thankfully no sore throat for me. I take lots of Airborne when I feel the slightly tickle or itch coming on. Good luck -- rest well!

I love this. Don't worry - if your pants are loosening up, your body is changing... it is frustrating, especially if you are tall or have a lot to loose. My coworker started on this journey at 5'3 with wanting to loose 35 or so pounds. I am 5;10" and want to loose 64.... we both have lost roughly the same amount, 20…

Beets are the best . . . .SUGAR BEETS that is!

That is a HUGE success! There is nothing you can't do now!

First of all, thank you for the sacrifice you made for the rest of us! It is impossible to express the gratitude and praise you and the rest of our military deserve. Second, great job on your determination and dedication to be healthy for you and your family. Enjoy!

Great job! Amazing!

11/1: 213.6 11/4: 214.4 11/6: 212.2 Down 1.4 --- interesting recording weight 3x week, as you can see already - I really flucuate!

Starting weight today: 213.6 (which is one pound more than my MFP ticker weight) -- so guess I am going for 11 pounds!

ME TOO! I have eliminated the eating out with careful planning, but I go right from work to feeding them at grandpas house (we live out of town) then spend 2 hours running from the hockey arena to the basketball court.... when we get home (never before 8), they are hungry again! So I usually make them oatmeal or cream of…

We have a local dentist that will put your name in for a drawing for a whole list of prizes,, including ipod touches, nintendos, etc. You just bring your candy into her after Halloween and your name goes in---- my 10 year old said, lets just bring in some of our candy - she'll never know! We had a potluck at work today --…

Not gain it back during the Christmas season!

1. Workout Consistency - 3x week weights, 3x week cardio 2. Strive for 5 a day! (veggies of course), and reduce the amount of wheat I consume.

212 here -- so 202 would be my goal! Haven't seen that weight since pre-pregnancy of #5 --- who is 5 now!

I am in! I had a terrible October - didnt' gain any, but only lost half a pound... October is when "busy life" for me kicks in full boar,, I need to regroup and replan my "winter" strategy and get back on track BEFORE the holiday festivities begin.

I love snowshoeing and cross country skiing - so just patiently waiting for the snow to fall! But I have to admit-- that Bikram Yoga does sound awesome -- I would love a 90 room right now! FREEZING HERE! I have never done yoga, and would like to . . . .

Definitely a difference! Keep up the good work!

Great job! And Great inspiration! Keep up the super work, your daughters will enjoy many years with their healthy momma! I wish I looked so good in my size 18's!
