Hello All, My name is Kim and I live in Woodbridge, VA by way of Macon, GA....I have a 13 year old daughter and for the longest I blamed my weight gain on baby weight....well my weight really sky rocketed two years ago when I was laid off for 7 months ( I am an emotional eater). I went from 190 to 215, as of today I am 190…

I would consider it to also be either calisthenics (vigorous) in MFP.....

I actually have Insanity Fast & Furious which is just 20 minutes and I took a lot of breaks....I like the fact that Shaun T actually take breaks too. I have to admit that I stopped but I am going to start back as soon as I get my new custom made sports bra....he incorporates a lot of jumping and my ta ta's are unruly, lol

And if none of the previous posts provide an answer....have your Thyroids checked. There is Hyperthyroidism and Hypothyroidism.....

I am definitely in for this...the last week in September was uneventfull in the weightloss department. SW: 208 CW: 195 GW: 188 ↓ Weigh in Dates: 10/1 - 195 10/8 10/15 10/22 10/31 Total weight lost: The strangest thing I have noticed is that I actually like working out.....

I started 9/24 so I am on day two today.....she (JM) has brought so much pain to my life...lol. I would love to track with whomever is doing RI30, feel free to friend me....

Wow you look great.....I have not been taking many transformation pictures but I will put some up later....I am so excited to see that you lost some of your boobies.....I really need mine to go away. I was as high as 215 and when I joined MFP I was 207, now I am 194 and my goal is to reach 175 so that I am not considered…

If you stop achieving your goal because of what this jerk said.....he will be winning and you will be in the house depressed. Anyone that is negative is not happy with themselves and need the attention from their counterparts to feel good. We are here to keep you pushing towards your goal.....when you go walking again take…

Hello Everyone, I am Kim, 42 year old CW is 195 down from 215 and my goal is to be 175 so that I can finally have a BMI out of the "overweight" category.....I am 5'10" and although I do not look heavy I know what I used to weigh 13 years ago before my daughter was born, I can't very well blame her anymore,…

I am not posting because I want a chance to win a package.....I am posting because you are such an inspiration to so many, I have a family history of stroke and diabetes and I joined this site so that I could decrease my chances of developing these diseases. Keep up the good work with maintaining.....and thank you.

I'm interested, the last challenge I was in really helped me keep focused

Feel free to add me....I just turned 42 and just hit "onederland" so I would love extra encouragement from new friends to help me reach my goal....oh yeah, I have a great sense of humor.

Hey Ash, I am glad you are taking the first step and we will definitely motivate you.....I love this site.

This is an awesome read......my drive is health, when my father was 40 years old he suffered a major stroke and we found out he was diabetic along with high blood pressure...I had made up in my mind that I was not going that route because diabetes and hbp is prominent in my family. I have not always been focused but this…

Feel free to add me as well, I have been on here 20 days and have already lost 5 lbs.....I have been promoting this site to a lot of my friends on facebook, but you have to be dedicated......I never use to like exercising either until I started seeing a difference on the scale and in my clothes.

I like Chobani and strawberry-banana is my favorite, the kids very berry is good also....

I would love to have that problem....I actually think most of the 20 lbs I need to lose are in my boobs

Okay...so here it goes...I've been on this diet (which I don't really like the word) for a week and a half and have found much inspiration, advice and motivation - you guys are the tops! I have lost 5 pounds and celebrated eating a kiwi, the whole thing...not just a slice *WOOT* I've been eating within my calorie range,…

Hello, my name is Kim I will be 42 in August and I joined this site after reading about a very inspirational woman....Ernestine Shepherd, she is a 75 year old Bodybuilder who holds the title in the Guinness Book as the Oldest Female Bodybuilder. She started working out at the age of 56 and entered her first competition at…

Congratulations....I am trying to reach that point as well, it seems like such a struggle; I am only 6 lbs away from it and I too want to get out of the "overweight" column of the BMI scale.

Hello my name is Kimberly (Kim), and I joined this site June 13, 2012 after reading an article about the World's Oldest Female Bodybuilder Ernestine Shepherd (75); I was so inspired by her that I made up my mind to lose weight and get back healthy. I will be 42 August 12th and I am going home (Macon, GA) to celebrate with…

Ditto

I have not gone completely raw but I have chosen to eat organic foods and they tend to have less sugar content....I did not eat any pastries, cookies, etc. when I eliminated sugar and I lost 6lbs the first week....but with all things I try I gave up and gave in to the sweets. Now, I try to drink green tea with two splenda…

I wondered the same thing....thanks to reading these replies I understand now.
