I have 4... ages 11, 9, 7, and 5. I look at working out as a way of keeping my sanity!! It's that one hour a day where I get to do something just for me.

Love, Love , Love this post..so motivational..thanks for sharing..especially the quotes!!

I think you should move on now before you get attached and hurt even worse in the long run. Who wants to constantly be compared to someone else anyway? He might not say it but he'll probably be thinking it. You need someone who wants you no matter what. He's not over her so why waist you time trying to change his mind?…

That's awesome!! Congrats!!

I'd like to join. I log in sometimes but I've never made it over five days logging in. I always fall off on the weekends. so far I've lost 45 lbs and I have another 45lbs to reach my goal!!

You commented on my post about should I log cheat days and it encouraged me to log todays indulgent meal...so I guess I'm officially a freak too!! Also, I did way better that I thought I would...no guilt here!! Enjoyed every bite of it!! Merry Christmas!

Thank you all for the advice. I guess I call it a cheat day cause I ate the stuff that I normally would not eat in trying to reach my fat loss goal. I don't say weight cause I'm trying to gain lean muscle. Anyway, I do enjoy the occasional fried or sweet stuff but on this particular day we had an office lunchon and at this…

Thank you for posting this. I tend to do alot of this myself at times. I don't see how far I've come and how much better I feel. I still seem to be saying some of the same things to myself. So I'm glad you posted this it makes me realize how much this journey is about the mentality we have thru it. Thank you again, very…

Wow, Thank you for posting this. I really needed to hear that. I've been trying to lose to and so far I've lost 41 lbs and I sometimes I'm still not happy with what I've done up to this point but you are absolutely right I think. I need to be happy with the accomplishments I've made and what's yet to come but I can't just…

You look amazing Supple Mama!! Keep up the hard work it's inspiring!!! :happy:

I recently started lifting also and I find that I love it. I still have alot to lose to reach my goal and I hope that lifting will help get me where I want to be!! I would love to have friends with the same interest....

Just hang in there. As you continue to go it will get easier. I go to Zumba classes on a regular basis and when I first started there were several younger girls there who looked to be in shape already and knew the choreography pretty well. I felt really intimadated at first and had alot of self doubt but I continued to go…

:smile: Thanks so much for the encouragement it really helps. Yes, I think definitely the mental part has been difficult but I think your right I will start to enjoy my new body and not miss the old one..again thanks!

Wow you are amazing. Thank you for sharing your story. It did inspire me I have nearly 100 ibs I need to lose. At times I feel like giving up but I'm glad to see that it is possible.

That's awesome work, Thanks for sharing your story.. :happy:

Thanks everyone for your input some good ideas on here!!

:smile: Thanks that sounds good. I think I'll try that for a while.

I've been doing alot better. I was having another whole meal before bed but I made a few changes. I take a glass of water with me to bed and sip on it while reading or watching tv. I've decided that the kitchen is closed after 9 and If I absolutely have to have something it's going to be fruit. I have slipped a few times…

That is so amazing, just the inspiration that I've been searching for. We can do all things thru Christ who strenghtens us..so moving. I love you're post.
