RunninSD

I just wanted to stop and tell you great job! When I lost the first 10-15 pounds when I was 192 I could hardly tell. Now at a size 8 could drop 10 pounds and be a size 6. (and people would notice) The bigger you are the less noticeable it is. when you lose 5 pounds and you're smaller it's noticeable. Just keep working at…

protein is found everywhere, yogurt, oatmeal, nuts, egg whites, milk, soy milk...

I'm 5'0 tall and my goal weight is 135. or possibly 127-130...I look pretty good at 150 right now... all thick and toned....

I swear I felt like this before I decided to lose weight a year ago...

That makes me feel good because I am a size 8 at 5'0. Not sure if a size 6 would be better for my height. But I wish my tummy looked that good. Ugh, I'll keep working at it.

Rolled oats w/ brown sugar fat free milk a few walnuts and some golden raisins! :)

I am 27 and have lost 40 pounds total!:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: I have another 15 or so to go. It has taken me over a year with working full time and being in grad school. But I just keep on working at it. I run 3 miles every other day plus do INSANITY, aerobics and long fast walks. I need to get a new bike because…

Yes It's a way for me to stay focused and I also pre-log my exercise. It helps keep me motivated. I also helps me manage the foods I eat based on my exercise and goals.

My Dad is even worse he makes fun of my mother and my sister and I when we go out to eat. My mom got a lot of food at this fancy restaurant on Thanksgiving. Yes sometimes we take the holiday off and go to the Ritz, or something like that. But I could kind of tell she wanted to stab him with the fork. lol she got up and…

I say yeah sure and let him take you out as much as you want but not take him SERIOUSLY.

I feel your pain...

Truthfully....having sex for the first time with my skinny boyfriend...I felt so fat... AND seeing all of the photos at the last family reunion a year and 40 lbs ago. Its easy when you have clothes on and there's no one to compare yourself to (in photos).

kids don't lie do they?

I'm in my recovery week and I would normally run 2.5 to 4 miles every other day and it was hard as all holy hell the first week. It has helped me in many other areas. I'm starting to see definition in my arms and legs. My back fat has decreased a lot. :drinker: I now try to do insanity every night and every other day I run…

YOU HAVE TO DO IT BECAUSE YOU WANT TO...Find somethign you like. I got into running and eventhough it took me all freakin summer to be able to run more than 2 miles without stopping, I am glad I got up every day to try. I went from doing half a mile in 8 minutes to a 10 minute mile all on hilly terrain. :drinker: Now I do…

I get motivated because I know that if I don't do it I'll be fat again. I'll feel awful, and have to buy fat clothes. When I go out men will notice my friends that are trim but don't have a pretty face. I have a pretty face and once I'm trim I'll be a knockout. I'm a size 8 now and I'm already noticing a difference. My…

No bike trails, we have a heat wave right now... but it's a lot safer than living in the city. :)

I got tired of the chicken and started ordering carnitas. tried the salad.. but used lime juice instead of dressing (cuts down on fat) Salad, rice, cheese, no beans, fjita, tomatoes medium salsa, and a few slices of limes... Ocasionally I get the Guacamole, but it's high in fat. SKIP the SOUR CREAM and limit the cheese.…

So I can be hot... and feel great. My female co workers actually asked me if I did it for my boyfriend... Why the hell would I lose almost 40 pounds for someone else? He fell in love with me when I was fat and he still loves me... I can't wait until the fall when I straighten my hair and it's all long down my back and I…

Thank you all for posting. :happy: I am also trying to hold out until I get closer to my goal weight. I did go shopping two weeks ago and low and behold I am now fitting a size 8 skirt and size 10 jeans at express. I don't expect to make it into some super small size, I have big hips and a big butt. But I am glad that my…

Thank you all for posting. :D Ladies and Gentleman. Feel free to add me.

Whoa damn I am totally at work and nearly fell out of my chair from laughter. Your comment was hilarious. But I feel the same way, like damn... I haven't even had kids yet.

LMAO! I almost did and then I realized that it may be a little much. My bf may not approve...

Sorry to say it but your husband is lazy. Losing weight and getting in shape is hard damn work. If you don't want it for yourself then how do you expect to make it to your goal? ***** For a long time I couldn't lose weight, and then I sprained (torn ligaments and all) my ankle and couln't run for two months but I hopped on…

Congrats! I am sure you're son will be healthy and fill your lives with even more joy! :smile:

If I can have children I want at least one. If my husband and I can afford 3 children that would be great. There's no love like the love you have with your sibling especially when you mature and realize that all you will have one day is each other. I am so glad I pressured my mom to have a baby brother (that ended up being…

If you really like some of them or paid a lot get them taylored. I have some $300 Karen Millen dresses and there is no way in H!*&! I am going to give those away. :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:…

I am 27!!! Anyone feel free to add me. I am also a SHORTY at barely 5 feet tall. :D BTW Are any of you in school and working full time? How do you manage stress eating?

I say fun sized. You know delias actually has a shirt out right now that has a picture of a wedding cake and a cupcake pictured together and the cupcake says "I'm not short I'm just funsized" lol! I had to get it. Sooo funny!

OMG ! You look Great! Thank you for posting!
