Amazing job! I'd like to see pics too. :-)

Wow, a lot of the weight goals on this post seem so low for 5'9", especially the one for 126 lbs. I don't want to "quote" anyone because I am not trying to offend, I just had to put my 2 cents in on that one. I am 5' 9" and couldn't imagine being smaller than a size 10, it just doesn't seem natural for my body type. So…

This is probably the main reason I stopped going to the gym. Not only did I feel inferior, but I also felt like I was being judged (which I probably wasn't). Those feelings kept me from exercising for too long. Now that I am back at it I find I enjoy other exercise, just not the gym. If you enjoy the gym then stay there…

I just put in aerobics. I mix it up with low-impact and high-impact depending on how hard I pushed myself.

I am wondering how accurate the Zumba calculation is too. I am posting on this thread so I can come back to see if anyone has anything to say about this topic. :-)

For a refreshing smoothie I do this: 1 cup coconut water 1/2 cup pineapple Spinach and ice cubes My morning breakfast smoothie always changes but it always 4 main ingredients: 1/2 cup non-fat greek yogurt 1/2 banana 1 cup spinach ice then I throw in whatever fruit I have on hand and how ever many calories I am willing to…

I like to boil pinto beans with a slice of bacon, chili powder and some minced garlic. I use about half a bag and boil covered for about 6 hours. They are so good. I don't think you need the bacon but it tastes so much better. I haven't made beans since I started dieting so I haven't thought about an alternative. You will…

I made something very similar to this for dinner tonight and it was very good.

You need a blender! LOL, I use mine almost everyday. :-)

Definitely going to pick up some jello pudding mix next time I'm out!

Mama's song gets me too, it came out shortly after I got engaged. It's the perfect song I think.

Christmas Shoes gets me too. My main ones are "Love your baby girl" by sugarland and "How can I help you say goodbye" by Patty Loveless. I even got a little chocked up thinking about this post. I find it interesting that both my songs have to do with a relationship with parents, I love mine very much.

I made something delicious tonight that I found on Pinterest. It's called "Mexican Chicken" 1 lb of boneless skinless chicken breast 1 can of 98% fat free cream of Chicken Soup 1 cup of Salsa 1 packet of taco seasoning Mix it all together and cook in crock pot on low for 6 hours. Shred the chicken and make sure it's all…

Have you ever heard of Walden Farms? They make 0 calorie mayo, ketchup, salad dressing, chocolate syrup, BBQ sauce and others. Of course it doesn't all taste the same as the full calorie version but I swear by the brand.

I love this! Thank you for sharing. I especially enjoyed the picture of the two of you in your old jeans. My favorite part of MFP is all the success stories, I really appreciate the inspiration. You look amazing!

Thanks for posting, I had to pin this!

This made me giggle because I have found that my body doesn't agree with my relationships either! In the past I have found that when I broke up with a BF I dropped 2 dress sizes almost instantly. Now I am married so that is not an option, it's just funny to me how our body responds to our different lifestyles.

I found them at Sprouts today for $1.39. I bought their last package and I'm excited to try them!

I just bought some today, I'm so excited to try them!

Add me! I have been looking for more people to share this journey with. I am always on my MFP app, but I can't send friend requests with that. I only go on the computer every so often and MFP won't let you send more than 5 requests in 10 minutes. LOL.

Not only do you look healthier, you look happier! That is my ultimate goal. Good for you. :-)

I am 5'9" My goal weight is 200 lbs (for now) but i am a solid woman too. I know I will never be a size 5 and I am OK with that!

I make a smoothie almost everyday for breakfast this is my usual: 1/2 cup fat free greek yogurt, 1/2 banana, 1/2 cup of cut up strawberries, 1 kiwi, about 1 or 2 cups of raw spinach, 1/8 cup of vanilla almond milk and 4 or 5 ice cubes. This week I decided to do with out the banana to try to cut back on my sugar intake but…
