I am 37 and I don't want to be fat by 40 either. I have doing this low carb, calorie counting working out 5 days a week thing since the beginning of June and I have lost 31lbs and now am 234. I am hoping to be down to 160 by next June. I am hoping that is a realistic goal that I set for myself. Please add me, maybe we can…

lol@ her texting him and talking to him. Oh to be young again. I am glad I moved 350 miles away from my ex (abusive relationship of 12 years) WITH the person I left him for :) I doubt I'll run into him anywhere.

You have lost 60lbs since the beginning of the year?! That's so amazing!!! I must add you as a friend!!!

That's the way us women are. Very competitive by nature whether they want to admit it or not.

Right? Time for a new husband lol jp :P

My husband bought me a $50 weight scale that just kicks booty! I had those reg old $10 ones and I hated it. This new one is sooo much more accurate, we can set different goals for each of us on it, counts BMI and it's tempered glass. nice, He bought me 2 2lb hand weights, Jillian Michaels 30 day burn video, i got more…

Good for you!!

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!! I am 5'2ish and my goal weight is 160. My husband likes girls 170-200lbs. He likes em "meaty". I was about 200 when we met in 06, but since getting married my highest weight was 281 (pregnant with a 11lbs 4oz baby boy).

I struggled with infertility for YEARS so I didn't have my first child until I was 34. The beautiful daughter I had ALWAYS wanted. The Lord blessed us with a son less than 2 years later with no fertility medicine this time. He was a ...SURPRISE! I have PCOS, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and am very overweight so…

I too struggled with infertility for many years. I now have a 2 1/2 yr old daughter and 9m old son. My heart goes out to you. I know how it feels. Please add me. I have learned soooo much through the years.

^^ Sounds great. I'd go with this.

That's what I was going to say!!!! Everyone kept telling me that the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred level 1 was too hard for me and I could only do a few minutes of it, so I pushed myself and did the whole thing. I just wanted to prove I can do it. The two days were HELL on my quads (front thigh muscles) only. Everything…

I agree! Especially if you normally like sweets and haven't worked up the willpower yet. I have only been doing this a few months but yesterday I went to the Hostess store and bought stuff for my husband and daughter. I looked at it all and was not interested. I have lots of junk in my house but I don't want it. You get so…

I agree 100% ^^ I'll never ever ever ever give up my sodium!!

I was looking for a surprised/shocked smiley. I am a little disappointed they didn't have one. But 158 lbs lost?!!!!!!!

100 push ups, 150 dips, 200 sit ups and 200 squats A DAY???

I wouldn't wait. Buy the digital test that says, "pregnant or not pregnant" now. If it says pregnant, call your doctor and make an appt for the blood test. I agree about the dollar store tests. They work very well, but I still went out and bought the digital one ;)

Actually there is such a thing, but it's very rare. I googled that LONG ago.

That is too dark for an evap line. I went through fertility help to conceive my daughter and I bought so many pregnancy tests, I started buying them in bulk online lol... Start picking out names ;)

Um no. I tested before I was even due for my period for both my kids. 12 days after I conceived them. I was really trying though. Used dollar tests with both and then I bought the digital "pregnant" or "not pregnant" ones. False positives are extremely rare. You are pregnant. Congratulations :)

No surgery???

Secret - powder fresh. I have noticed that it doesn't seem to be working as well as it is supposed to. Maybe it has to do with me eating lots of meat, cheese and veggies.

I would definitely know if someone lost over 100lbs!!!!!! I would ask how they did it. Of course if it was because they were sick, I'd feel like poo.

I too am doing low carb. But I eat a poop ton of sodium.

Me too. Of course naked in the am after I go potty lol...

I agree ^^ No cheat "days", just a day to have a cheat "meal". For example, I visit my dr. once a month and it's about 45 min away. There is a Hardees close by so this whole last month I told myself if I didn't go over my calorie goals this month that I can reward myself with my favorite burger with no bun. So I did today…

I don't eat "healthy" but I try staying under my 1500 calorie 150 carb goals daily.

Congrats on the weight loss! So in other words, other people don't really notice until you lose about 50-60lbs?? I have lost 30 and I am more excited than anyone. No one has really said,"You look like you've lost weight"..But I think a lot has to do with certain people seeing you every day (or close) through your journey.…

I miss spaghetti. I could try and have 1 serving, but I wouldn't be able to control myself. I know this, so I don't make it anymore.
