  • Separated...hopefully divorced by 2013!!!
  • My reward this month is wearing the smallest size dress in my friend's wedding. Before starting to lose weight I was the largest!
  • I just track the calories... I'm willing to work out extra for a few glasses of wine (& some chocolate).
  • Turned 35 this year... Made me realize I'm not willing to spend the rest of my life unhappy & self conscious about my body.
  • You look great! So healthy & happy! I'm 5'6" & started on here at 191 & you are a great inspiration. Thank you for sharing!
  • @ a concert w/ friends
  • Hi, I'm Juanita...I've been single for 2yrs now & I have been on MFP for a month. I live in the Central NY area & am the mama of a really kickass 4yr old boy :) I've recently started running & have my 1st 5k this coming Tuesday & then my 2nd on 6/30. I would like to meet people that are near me & would like to hang out...…

  • You should probably take NSAIDS for a while. They will help with the inflammation. If your doctor diagnosed you he/she should have given you a plan of care.

  • It's hard... Especially when your sitter cancels on you! (mine just canceled for tomorrow) I try doing as many physical activities w/ my son as possible. I've only been trying to get healthy for a month now, but so far we're doing ok!
  • Not trashy...I have my son's name on the inside of my right wrist & my ex-husband has it on his forearm. We both love them & our son loves looking at his name on us. I find tattoos (done well) are beautiful. Once I reach my goal weight I'll be rewarding myself w/ a new one.
  • Guess where Captain America will be next Saturday!!!! *I'm still waiting for the answer
  • You can still do many exercises while pregnant. Make sure to discuss your weight concerns with your obgyn. If you are overweight you can still have a healthy baby without gaining a ton of weight. I gained 13lbs during my pregnancy & had a perfect & healthy 10lb baby boy. Congrats!
  • I'm never on time. I'm a "helicopter" mom. I cheat at Candyland.

  • Love, love, love, Puzo!
  • @SomeoneSomepl 8.5 great smile, beautiful hair & congrats on being so close to your goal!
  • Is there a Fleet Feet near you? The one near me offers a 10 wk No Boundaries begin to run program. Learning to run w/ a group of people at the same level as myself really helps keep me motivated. There are trainers & local athletes & Drs that come w/ tips & exercise ideas. I have a little over 3 wks before we run our 5k.
  • This made me cry, too. I finish my 5k training in a few weeks & our race is June 30th. Thank you!
  • Don't marry him! Move to Texas like you were thinking about & don't look back!
  • I've had it in 2 months now without any bad side effects (spotting, but I was told to expect that). I was worried about acne & weight gain, but was willing to try it becsuse of how heavy my periods were.
  • I can picture the "walk of shame" while sucking each cheesey orange finger.

  • I know a few people that had luck w/ Plenty of Fish. I know I need to get myself out there into the dating world, but I'm too self conscious. Let us know how it goes! Maybe once I reach my goal weight I'll try it out, too :)
  • I started at 191 so we're very close!
  • My 1st 5k is in a few weeks... I'm hoping to run all of it. Before reading this I would have put "run" b/c I never thought of myself as a runner... Thank you!
  • You can add me...I've been using just the phone app & just looked at the website a few days ago & discovered all of you. It would be great to not do this alone.

  • I'm in a similar program & like you I was never a runner. Last Monday my group had to run 18mins straight (plus 4min intervals) & I'm proud to say I did it plus 2 extra mins b/c I was so far ahead of my group I didn't hear our coach yelling to stop :) We're only supposed to run 3x a week with rest days in between, but this…
  • Glad to see others from Syracuse, NY
  • I'm a single mom of a 4yr old son w/ SPD. I'm new to this site & would love to know others that are dealing w/ the guilt of spending time on yourself. I know that a healthy/happy me makes for a better mom, but I hate leaving my son w/ a sitter for an hour after being at daycare all day so I can run/work out. I try to do a…
  • Syracuse, NY.... Go S.U. :)
  • I started a training program for a 5k & using this site 3wks ago. Right now I'm interval "running" 3x a week & staying @ 1200 calories & that seems to be working (so far). I think (when just starting out) any exercise that you enjoy & can stick with is great. I have always thought i hated cardio, but I actually kind of…
