Hey, all! I'm graduating on Thursday - YAYYYYYYYY!!!! I'm currently able to run up to 3.5 miles, but I'm going to start working on my speed now. I did 2.5 miles last night and it only took me 42 minutes, so I'm down to a 16 minute mile...I know I can do it faster, and that's my goal. My first 5k is on September 1st -…

Oh, amen to THIS!!! Love me some Stamos...

LOL!! THIS!!!

I need to lose about 100! Add me!

I've got about 100 to lose! Friend request on the way! Also anyone else feel free to add me! :)

Amazing! So true and helpful!!!

Amen to this!

I agree! I can't go and get all sweaty and gross at lunch, and then just come back. So, I work out before/after work. To me, it's not an excuse; it's legit to not want to "funk" up the office, lol!

I'm starting it again tomorrow morning! Friend request on the way! :)

I've got TWO spa gift certificates...when I get half way to my goal, I'm leaving the kids with the hubby and taking an all-day ME DAY!! Two spa trips, nails, hair, toes, maybe some new shoes and jewelry; a couple new outfits...can't go clothes crazy cause I will still have more to lose, but I'm going to do it up BIG!!!!

OMG, YES!!!!! That sums up how I feel PERFECTLY! MUST.DEFEND.MY.GROUND!!!

Exactly! I almost couldn't sleep last night because I felt like I had left something undone. Not going to go through this again!

AMEN TO THIS!!! So what I needed to hear, thanks friend!!!

:flowerforyou: Sending a friend request now...I've got 100 to lose!

I'm in! Can I do them inclined and pushing off the wall or counter top??

I have the exact opposite problem - two months of busting my but with good eating and working out - first month I gained 7, now I'm down 4.2. :grumble: :explode: However the inches are falling off...right along with all of my pants, LOL! It will come for you...just give it time, keep working hard, and make the small tweaks…

Way to go! I can definitely see the difference. Next time, just so you can prove it to yourself, wear that SAME outfit and stand in front of the SAME door and then compare the two...you will definitely see it! Well, done, and keep it up!

THIS!!!!

I generally wear those pairs of undies in my drawer and are JUST a little more snug than the others, and then a pair of leggings, yoga pants, or shorts that are also well-fitted. Then, I pull a snug tank top down over all the rest to keep and belly and boobs from interrupting my running...:) Oh the joys of being jiggly,…

:flowerforyou: :happy: Welcome, Vicky!! I sent you a friend request, but anyone else please feel free to add me! I simply love MFP, and it really does help to keep you accountable, motivated, and there is so much support! We're all in this together. Yay!:wink:

Don't you love it when you find something that seems super calorie loaded and then you get a nice surprise? Yay for Snickers Ice cream bars!

I've been there and done it ALL as far as dieting is concerned. Like so many, I've tried the pills, drinks, wraps, starvation, low carb, etc! Temporary results every.single.time! Now, like SO many, one day it just clicked: I'm DONE with being unhealthy! I was holding my youngest daughter, and letting her see herself in the…

AMEN TO THAT!!! If I had as hot a body on the outside as I feel like I am on the inside?? I would NEVER be clothed, so the point of asking me to stip would be moot. :tongue:

:drinker: YAY!! Do your thing!!! :drinker: I'm starting week 6 tomorrow.

I was going to say the same thing - just double check what/how you're eating. That's a big contributor. Best of luck! :smile:

We're NEVER beyond hope! After all, you're here, and trying your best. If you think that you'll be Flabbylicious when you reach your goal (like I think I will be), start saving now just in case you need medical assistance for it. That way, when you get where you want to be, you won't get discouraged by looking at what's…

LOL, deflated balloons! I hear you on THAT!!! After two kids, I don't hold out my hope without a little surgical lift. Well, I'm glad to hear about both sides of the coin. I definitely get my water in, and I'm starting the 30-day shred on Sunday...woo hoo! Hopefully that will keep/bring some toning.

Yes, I guess losing it slowly is a good way to avoid the extra sag...
