I can thank bench presses for my brand new armpits! Thank you :)

I got on a program on Fitocracy doing reverse pyramid training, 3 days a week with a focus on lifting heavier and hitting personal records. I love a good goal and it's been very motivating to have weekly goals to aim for plus a PLAN when I go to the gym. Plans are great. Coupled with a diet that carb cycles, I've gotten…

I'm interested :)

Hihi! I'm 5'11 (and a half). Before at 206 lbs: After at 180 lbs: I'm up a little with a goal to be 160 :)

I lost 26lbs in 7 weeks with a healthy, low-sodium, fresh food 1300 calorie diet and walking. Can be done, consistency is KEY!

1FITmamaofTWINS (wow...just wow) dgilner (so fun and such a good attitude!) Kaye8395BTS (stunning transformation and such a sweet girl!) tazpooh (she's ON IT every day and has so much information! so lovely to follow)

A nice high-waisted pencil skirt and blouse would be perfect. Target has amazing pencil skirts for like $20.

I drink Diet Snapple. It's a lot of water with your caffeine, so that's how I justify it :)

I'm going to try to eliminate all processed foods from my intake starting Monday. I lost weight rapidly when I was eating fresh, whole foods. I love the Green Giants Steamer veggie bags. Trying to stay away from canned foods mostly, and diary (except egg whites). It worked like a charm last time! Good luck! oxox

Try Strattera - I had a horrific year last year and was prescribed it for anxiety. It's stimulant-free, but helps me focus and relax :) It's for adult ADD, but it's been very helpful for me to stay driven at work and not focus on the stress-inducing, negative things going on around me.

I'm 5'11 and I'm shooting for 160. I look fantastic at that weight and very long and lean with nice curves :)

I always get Katherine Heigl and Charlize Theron...and in the summer (when I'm tan) Jessica Alba. :)

I eat sour cream on things! Cheese, nuts, and most non skim dairy products will up your fat. Also, try eating beef - higher fat than chicken :)

Pure Protein is my fave: http://www.sportnutrition.com/pages/products.aspx 1g of sugar in the Vanilla Cream one and it tastes great!

I mean, honestly, do you want to work for people that treat you like this? I work at a Private Equity firm in NYC and they're NICER and more accommodating! Truth is, if you're the best guy for the job, you'll get hired. If not, it wasn't meant to be and you can thank your lucky stars that you're not working for people who…

Push ups and chest presses! Anything you can do to lift your pectoral muscles :)

Firstly, you look amazing, so take a deep breath and pat yourself on the back for all you've accomplished. I noticed that I dropped weight when I upped my calories 200 per day, so maybe you're not eating enough, since you workout so much? Also, do you ever have a cheat day where you can have anything you want for 1 day? I…

I don't know if you pack lunch or buy lunch, but I run down to Chipotle (or Qdoba) and grab a burrito bol, no rice, pinto beans, chicken, sour cream, cheese and lettuce. 20 net carbs. Tastes awesome!

I so appreciate everyone's kind words of encouragement! You all are fabulous and I couldn't have done this without you so, please, take a bow! Sarah

I just find a chicken soup in the database that looks about right.

I smile and say "Thank you!" and then go "toss, toss" with my hair. :P

Thank you so much! A few people have asked, and I'm very tall: 5'11. :)

Thank you! Believe it or not, I have not worked out once since I started this journey (actually getting a gym membership on Monday, yay!). I've been keeping my calories between 1200-1300 per day, higher protein and low sodium. Portion control and logging as religiously as possible!

I use it. Tastes a little different but great for adding to recipes that need a little oomph.

Executive Assistant at a Financial Advisory/Investment Bank in NYC. Sounds boring, but I love it!

Unless you're like me and have very low chloirde...which means sodium affects me greatly. Sadface. I love pizza.

The only way I lose weight is if I keep my sodium under 2000mg. It's difficult if you're eating processed foods but can be done by limiting your processed foods and adding in fresh, not treated foods. It's annoying and I wish that I didn't have to watch my sodium, but I drop weight quickly if I do!
