Thanks saralayne 42!

mrs_schultz - I love the color of that bikini!

I agree! So many cute suits and awesome body types! Everyone looks great!

goldmoonjd, you look awesome! I would love to have a flatter belly and thinner legs!

Great job! Love the story and admire you for your dedication!

500 cals is definitely doable. I can run for 40 minutes and burn 650, or do the elliptical and burn 525 in 30 minutes. A 1 hour step class burns about 700 cal according to MFP. I usually get to the gym by 5 am and try to get an entire hour in before I leave. If I'm extra energetic or motivated that day, I may do another…

I love the top half, I could skip the rest! I may pass on the cover-up if I can find some shorts!

Thanks, goldmoonjd! I think I may buy it............ along with a nicecover-up! :-)

I have done cleanses in the past that have required me to not eat for seven days, only do liquids. Totally tough, but definitely worth it. I felt so much better and my system ran a lot more smoothly! Added bonus was weight loss! For some reason however, over the past few years, the only way I was losing weight was when I…

Great work! Beautiful smile!

Great job!

My butt!

July 2012 - 220 lbs. December 2012 - 205 lbs

Didn't do too bad! Only had two slices of pizza, a few wings and a handful of chips with dip. I mostly drank wine coolers, so that's where the majority of my calories came from. Amazingly enough, I stayed under my calories for the day because I was working my butt off cleaning the house to get ready for the party and doing…

@ tennolina - Beautiful hair and smile!

A friend I hadn't seen in a while saw me and said, " Wow! You look so good now. I mean you looked great before, you've always had a great shape, but theres so much less of less of it now. You really look so much better!" I didn't know whether to smile or to cry!

Great job! You look hot in that black dress!

@ uno drea - smile

Everyone looks awesome! You all are fearless! When I'm done with Insanity, I'll post a pic!

You're not worhtless. We can all support each other to improve and make better choices! We can do it!!!!

A place called Cook-Out. They have awesome milkshakes and I love their fries, too! And f course, Chick Fil A!

Good job! Keep at it, running is fun. And the endurance and stamina you'll gain will be awesome!

That if you stood too close to the tv you'd go blind!

that tucking my covers completely under me would mean that the monsters couldn't get me. can't let a foot or arm hang out............
