FUNNIEST.SHIZ.EVER.

Eh. It is what you make it. I am happily married. I like using the site for tracking my calories and workouts and I get a lot of support from the people who have friended me. Nobody really flirts with me, but I also don't really flirt. Maybe innocent flirting that people randomly do out in public also, but nothing like…

I would personally go with gold sandals for the 1st dress. black with the 2nd and 3rd dresses.

My mom uses it in almost all her cooking... mmm... egg rolls :heart:

My first true love? The day I had my first ultrasound and got to see my baby boy (who is now 6years old). :wink: This boy taught me everything I needed to know about love and loving myself. I met my husband a few years later online (we started talking because we went to the same high school and I knew his sister).

That is fantastic! I'm glad you feel and ARE healthier! You have done a fantastic job (read your "about me" section)!! You will do great things. I can feel it! Keep it up!

you are doing so great!!! :D be proud girl!

my curves :blushing: i have a small waist in relation to my hips (there's a 14 inch difference... lol) and i like it (and so does my husband :blushing: )

finally got a chance to go to the link you posted in your bio and i have to say you are GORGEOUS! you were beautiful before, but you're even more so now. why? because you're happy, healthy, and fit! keep it up girl! :D

i'm pear shaped... definitely struggle with jeans, but with dresses i can easily wear a size 6 or 8 (as long as they have a higher waist). i have a 14 inch difference in my waist and hips. i kind of like it though. LOL i just know i can't shop in the juniors section EVER and certain stores i easily wear a size 10 and…

When I went to a gym, this is what I ran into most often. LOL I failed to see my category "sweating too much kind of sloppy girl". I go in with a jacked up looking pony tail and whatever is comfortable and no make up on. I don't talk to anyone. I sweat too much and end up with big sweat spots on my clothing in awkward…

You all look fabulous! I don't know whether or not I have a large frame. It says I'm between small and medium, but I am 181lbs, a size 10 jeans, 5'6", and I can already see my ribs slightly (not in a totally unhealthy way, but more of a "i have less fat there" way).

I'm no longer focusing on the scale and the goal was never to get skinny. I want to be healthy. Period. The number on the scale doesn't determine whether or not I'm healthy. ;) Good for you for taking control of your health!

I think I'm semi modest. I dress appropriately for my age and for a mother. I do wear pants, but I don't wear dresses or skirts above the knee (I believe I only have one dress that is just slightly above my knee). I do show cleavage SOMETIMES, but I don't purposely push the girls out on display in a way that is…

so far, i've had nothing but support from everyone. even people who eat clean religiously or are on extremely strict diets don't force their opinions down my throat about my diary (i'm not a clean eater although i DO think it is healthier... i don't do it because i like my sweets LOL). all of my friends have been so super…

No way man! I love the new pic! ;)

You know.. I've felt the same way. Even as far in as I am... I think "WHY AM I NOT THERE YET????" :wink: lol The great news? Every single day, every single struggle... it's worth it. You will get there. You just have to keep going.

Ah! Yeah. My sister hasn't realized that just yet. She says if/when she gets pregnant her fiance is telling her that she'll eat organic. I don't eat organic (although i know... it's better... less pesticides and junk, but it's expensive! LOL). I just got a good laugh and I had to pick on her about it. She told me to shush…

can i make you giggle more? my sister feeds her dogs organic dog food yet SHE doesn't eat organic (actually she doesn't eat anything healthy at all)....this made me think (and say to her) " hm.... why is yo doggy eating betta than you???" LOL

my husband got the perfect pushup bars (to give him a bigger range of motion) and it's helped him and me increase our pushups! i guess because with the bars you can go lower... it builds the muscle? not sure but it's working! keep trying. i was at a point where i couldn't do a push up or plank for more than 10 seconds. i…

this... come make me a sammich... mines don't look so perdy.

VERY normal. the first month or so you always lose quickly. after that, it's slow and steady. ;) perfectly normal and healthy.

I am the opposite of the previous poster. Yes, I enjoyed Insanity, but I love p90x. I'm not a cardio person though. I have crap for knees. I was in a car accident a few years ago that damaged my lower lumbar. Lots of cardio seems to screw with my back. I get above my zone with p90x and usually have to come down because of…

My breaking point was the fear that if something happened to me... my son would go to my ex. I will do everything in my power to protect my children.

well you look great!

Much higher for both... 304 on the left and 182 on the right. ;) For you, I'll go with 125 at the very most. Forgive me if I'm too high.

you are beautiful no matter your size or weight and you deserve better. :)

LOL glad i made your day! ;) you're very welcome! you look great!

ah! shucks. i was wrong about his weight. well he's adorable. ha! ;)
