This morning I weighed in at 139.5 down about 5 pounds!

Wow.. You Look Amazing!! :)

I weigh myself on Friday morning... last friday I weighed in at 145. will post my updates on fridays! :)

You look great! Can't wait till mine slims!

Yeah.. it's called Ghrelin! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghrelin Ghrelin has emerged as the first identified circulating hunger hormone. Ghrelin and synthetic ghrelin mimetics (the growth hormone secretagogues) increase food intake and increase fat mass[7][8] by an action exerted at the level of the hypothalamus. They…

I want to say I've read up on this before.. and a lack of sleep actually increases a hormone that makes you have more cravings!

Well... it's just a thought... But I just joined this "24 hours of exercise in May" group to get myself revved up. Maybe you should join, too! Check it out! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/230443-24-hours-may-challenge xoxo

Wow.. That seems kinda tough.. But I'm willing to try 24 hours in May.. We can do it. :) May 1st: 120/1440 total mins

Yeah.. That's what my husband said when I first met him - because of how horrible his ex-wife was to him. You never know...

oh.. nvm. didn't realize it was closed! (shoulda read the last posts before posting!)

this fits into my goal great! except i'm going to do 35 pounds. :) this is cool to have a challenge! xoxo

Jewel-Osco usually has out chocolate chip cookies at the bakery for free. My husband asked if I wanted one. (they also had out cupcakes this time... frosting is my VICE!) I SAID NO, without even thinking twice. :)

AM, first thing, before any food or fluids :)

:)

I just started this week, too. I can't wait to see your 30 day pics! :)

I would also check out insanity http://www.beachbody.com/product/fitness_programs/insanity.do

you look GREAT! Looks like more than 20 lbs! :)

I was trying to help, but it looks like you've got it figured out now :) great accomplishment! you can really tell - looks like more than 13 lbs!

Wow, you look great! I just started it this morning... even though it's been sitting there for a while untouched.. lol. Great work & Very Inspiring!! Are you doing classic?

I agree! I do the same :)

yay! congrats! that's awesome!

it's okay to go a little over every once in a while, it confuses your metabolism and gives it a little jolt. You won't gain back several pounds from one meal (especially when your picks were healthy you just overindulged a little) just try to get in a workout, and make good choices the rest of the day. Never beat yourself…

I'm unsure.. though, I cut red meat out of my diet about 3 years ago(except for a cheeseburger maybe 2 times a year) and I haven't noticed any changes that weren't positive ones...

I am a small frame, too.. and I agree with this 100% It's hard for me to stay so focused, because it comes off so slowly, but if I gain back, that is really noticeable, too. 5 pounds makes a big difference on my frame.

But the OP is 5'8"!

A size 1-2 in pants, and 5'8"??!?!?! Hunny, stop dieting!!! You're super skinny.. possibly TOO thin! Check your BMI!

me too

I am 5'4", 140 pounds, hoping to get down to 110-115

Thanks!! :) I'll definitely check it out!!
