  • I used to be a scale junkie, weighing first thing every morning and it would set my tone for the day. I broke myself of that and was weighing in weekly then my scale battery died last week and I'm taking the opportunity to take a month long break from the scale. I'm close to my goal weight and I just want to focus on…
  • You can do it, Melinda!!!
  • You're all inspiring! My goal is to stay on the healthy eating track and lose 10 lbs by Dec 31st
  • Good for you for doing it the healthy way! I lost 50 pounds in 2012 the healthy way. I started the Couch 2 5K and ran my first half marathon last October. Finding an exercise that you love and are passionate about is the key. Also, just trying to eat healthy as a way of life and not thinking about it as a "diet" worked for…

This week I'm up to jogging 5 minutes at a time. 4 weeks ago I would've died jogging for 5 minutes. It's amazing how fast you build up your endurance. It's awesome for weight loss too! I've…
  • Keep it up and the weight will come off, I promise! All of your new muscles need water, so your body is retaining more water. Whatever you do, DON'T GIVE UP! :)
  • Good luck! I'm doing my first 5K in July and shooting for a half marathon in October. My husband runs full marathons, so I thought if I really put my mind to it, I could totally do a half! I started a blog about my weight loss and my new running goal. www.peaceloveandhealthiness.blogspot.com.
