Little? hehehe :tongue: Just giving you a hard time! :flowerforyou: :smooched: Naked, before my shower and after a tinkle. I also weigh myself naked right before bed. Just for curiosity’s sake.

PPFFFFTTTTTT HAHAHAHA!!!

Rock it, girl!

Yes, 5lbs DOES make a difference! At "just" a 5lb loss, my stomach had already stopped protruding so much! I have faith that you will meet your goal. I'm so happy you and everyone else is thankful for this thread. It has made my day! FR me if you'd like =)

I haven't seen much negativity towards this on the threads, more so in real life. But threads are created by and commented on by real life people. I have seen a few remarks here and there on threads, but thankfully not much. Honestly this was something I just felt like needed to be shared and said. I told a girl at my job…

So true! Thank you!! And I'm so happy that people are taking part in this thread and happy to see it posted :bigsmile:

Bumping to see if we can get more responses =)

Thank you both so much! And I wish it was easy to stop obsessing and self hating. Just keep telling yourself "grand scheme of things, grand scheme of things!!"

I'm losing an average of a pound every week and a half, 2 weeks. Sometimes it's more like a half pound in that time span. (In the past week and a half something crazy happened and I lost 2, but that has not been the average for me.) Since January I've lost 10lbs, so do the math, that's 1.6lbs a month (even with my 2 month…

And this, all of it ^^

I understand how you feel. I'm 5'0" and currently am 108.5lbs. Therefore, I don't burn as many calories as someone that is 5'6" and 150lbs doing the same exercise. I also have a smaller calorie goal than someone of that size. And the closer I get to my goal, the more the calories burned with exercise drops and the slower…

When I started my journey to a healthy lifestyle, I had about 18-20lbs to lose to get back to where I once was. And on a 5'0" frame, or at least mine, that's "a lot". It's the difference of about 4 jean sizes. It's the difference between a flat stomach and a stomach that came out to my size 32 D/DD boobs. It was the…

I agree with getting the the protein in, as well as alternating running and walking days. If just walking is enough to destress you, then I'd suggest only walking and leaving the running out as much as possible, at least until you are further into recovery. You wouldn't want the running to change from de-stressing to…

When I first started working out again, I got a large clear mason jar and labeled it...unoriginally..."workout jar" lol. Every time I did a workout, I'd put a dollar in the jar. Seeing the money add up really helped me to get and stay motivated. Looking at a pathetic, empty jar made me determined to fill it (and thinking…

True. TPBM can't stay awake past midnight.

I don't think there was anything wrong with what you said, especially since you guys have discussed weight loss recently. The first time I ever lost weight was a 20lb loss during the summer I was 13. When school started up again, some idiot boy said to me, "Hey, didn't you used to be FAT?!" :embarassed: :noway: :laugh: I…

I tried on a high-waisted pencil skirt that I haven't been able to fit in comfortably in a while (I *could* wear it, but I would have to inconspicuously unzip the back a little during/after eating :blushing: and then zip it back up anytime I would step away from my desk) It fit GREAT this morning and after having…

...here's my "but" I wish I never smoked that first cigarette. Such a stupid reason to, too. I agree with the two people I quoted; I believe mistakes shape us and mold us into who we are today, and I have always *strongly* believed everything happens for a reason. But when it comes to smoking, I honestly can't think of a…

I can't stand the taste of beer, wine, or straight liquor. Mixed drinks are the only things I can physically get down without feeling like I'm going to "lose it" from just taking a sip :sick: . But my boyfriend is always asking me to try different beers because I think he wants to share the whole "drinking a beer for its…

Good for you! Keep at it and you'll reach your goal in no time =) You look awesome!

I have not used DVDs or youtube as I go to a gym, but this is a great thread and I'm bumping to hopefully try out some of these suggestions :smile: Good luck!

bump to read later

Sounds like my boyfriend and I, except I HATE to vacuum :mad:. I'd rather have him tidy up the living room, dining table (papers just seem to "appear" on it every day), vacuum, that sort of stuff. And he picks up practically every day, without asking me for help because he likes to "piddle." I like to do the down and dirty…

:laugh:

omg this thread is hilarious. bumping for the laughs, as well as the info =)

If you work hard, results will come. :flowerforyou: Keep your chin up! :smile: Make sure you are eating clean--minimally/non processed foods, whole grains, lean meats, fruits and veggies. Get your cardio and weight lifting in. You won't get bulky from heavy weight lifting, you'll get strong and "toned". Low weights will do…

So, so true! :bigsmile: I almost spit my water out on the keyboard reading this part! Too funny, and true again! Ahhhhhh I'm dying here!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: And "Mr. Dog"--you are awesome ;-) As he said, this is an observation of the women in HIS life. If you're going to read a post, read it in its entirety, or…

You've lost weight in your stomach, your arms, your upper and lower back...you have done amazingly! Good for you! Keep up the hard work!

I do a 10min cadio warm up, then hit the wights, then do my actual cardio workout. I do this because I have more energy to lift if I do cardio last--if I do it first, I can't lift nearly as much or as well. I also read many articles (was a while back so I don't have the sources, but you could find them online) that you…

I love my boobs. Can't get enough of them ;-) And how optimistic I am, not matter what. Oh, and my eyes =)
