check out bikini body mommy on facebook! https://www.facebook.com/BikiniBodyMommy?fref=ts she has a 90-day challenge that alternates between circuit training and cardio. the circuit training workouts are typically 20-25 minutes or less. (most of the time, i actually find myself adding to the workouts so they're longer.)…

why don't you explain what you know?

agreed! i follow her on facebook. lots of good stuff.

saltines work for me. (i like whole wheat.) 60 calories for 5. carrots and uncooked green beans are good, too!

yep, it's super unhelpful when you don't have any actual advice to give, yourself. if you're well-educated on the topic, please, for the benefit of everyone, spend your time and energy enlightening us, instead of being a smart-*kitten*. give real tips. the people offering suggestions are trying to help, based on what they…

i'm a stay-at-home-momma. (daughter, 5 months old) you're certainly welcome to add me if you'd like! :)

i noticed the same thing about myself a couple of years ago... i would look back at old pictures and think, 'gosh, i looked pretty good!'... and then i remembered how i felt at the time the picture was taken, which was, 'gosh, i look so gross!' i had this lightbulb moment after doing that a couple of times... my weight is…

same here!

ooooh these pictures have totally inspired me today! i'm close to the same height (5'10") and i weighed in at 201.4 this morning. i'm just at the beginning of my journey, so seeing where i could be 30-40 lbs from now makes me so excited. you truly look amazing. so beautiful. thank you SO much for posting the pics. i'm so…

my daughter is about 11 1/2 weeks, my goal is to drop about 40 pounds, and i'm in my twenties... so it seems we may be a good match. :) i'll add you as a friend! good luck with the weight-loss, and congratulations on your sweet little lady! enjoy her!
