  • I am here! I know I keep saying this and then faulting at checking in. I even made reminders but then I dismiss those and then forget to check in. Weight 172- I cannot seem to go below 170 to save my life. One interesting thing that I did realize though is that my scale show me a whole bunch of stats. According to those…
  • Hey ladies. I always seem to say I am back. I even set alerts. It has been crazy though. I got the stiches out and can use my hand more but it is so sensitive. There is not rehab for it either. I have been looking up things I can do and trying to use it more. I was able to deadlift a small amount yesterday so I was happy…
  • Hello everyone. 1 week out of surgery and I can type! The movement is not the same with the wrap but I can still accomplish it. Helps that I did not have to take off work long then. I saw 170 this past week!!! I was so freaking happy. I am making progress slowly but it is still progress. I noticed I really just need to not…
  • Hello Everyone!!! I have missed you all so much. I thought about you yesterday and then put a reminder on my calendar to log in. It has not been great lately, hence why I have been missing. My daughter has had strep throat for an entire month. They are worried that it is not going away and that it could spread to her…
  • Girls..... what as few weeks it has been. We had this horrific stomach bug go around our house. I was out of work for an entire week almost and lost 6 lbs in a week. Everyday I thought about you all though when my phone reminds me to log food at 10am LOL. Needless to say, we are all healthy again and I am back to the gym.…
  • LW: 173.8 CW: 180 Here I am!!! I have not died just going through life. I was supposed to be divorced on 12/20 but that did not happen because he is delaying the process. He did say that he would never divorce me. I am not sure how I did not see these signs before we got married. So there is that. I started the CrossFit…
  • okay back again. Sarah- That is so exciting that you are at 130. Do you have a goal of what you want to be at? Sheesh- I am so sorry to hear about your sister. How is she doing now? I hope she recovers well. You are doing great with all your workouts it sounds like. Kell- Did you change your name? For some reason I was…
  • Hello everyone!!! I have not disappeared just have a lot going on at the moment. I started my new job and absolutely love it. My divorce will be completed in less than a month hopefully. He still keeps trying to get back together but I suppose that is how people that have control issues work. Thanksgiving was at my house…
  • Quick update. No clue what I weigh but..... I got a new job already. I am a firm believer that things also happen as they should. God closed that door and open this one for a reason. I work in HR. I will weigh tomorrow and post about all of you!!!
  • Well what a last couple of weeks it has been. Sorry I missed last week. I am not emotionally in the right frame of mind. I got let go from my job due to asking someone what they meant when they said partner. If you learn anything about me it will be that I am more conservative but when it comes to work I could careless. In…
  • Sheesh- That was the best video ever!!! I loved watching you change and your children grow. I waiting forever for that one daughter to get married and have a baby. LOL I think that you look amazingly beautiful throughout the entire video. You are so blessed!!! Sarah- I am have Wisconsin.
  • Happy Friday Y'all!!!! (I am not from the south but it sounded fun to say) :D I saw the number 174.8 this week!!!! I am super excited because that means I am moving in the right direction. This week I noticed that I do feel lighter as you say Sheesh. I am no longer being yelled at on a daily basis, I get to do what I want…
  • Currently 175, I am happy with that given I have been up lately because of the stress going on. I can see that I am moving in the right direction though and that makes me happy. I am currently living alone now and have 50/50 for my children. I really miss them and they cry when they are not with me. I have to remember…
  • Hello Ladies!!! I totally forgot last week to write in. I have now added it to my calendar as a reminder each Thursday morning to log in. I am still the same weight, no surprises there but my bff and I have made a pack that we are going to get focused starting this Saturday, October 1. Therefore next week I am hoping for…
  • Here I am!!! Same weight as usual. I am hoping life calms down soon, enough to focus more on myself and less on stress. The couple was together for 3 years before getting married and literally their vows were maybe 3 minutes and then they said "Let's party". I wish them all the best. Everyone deserves to be happy. Sarah-…
  • Hello ladies!! Sorry I have been MIA. We were sick and then went to family camp. I am still the same weight. I am happy to not be gaining but losing would be nice. My 18 yr old son moved back in and my grandmother. We currently have a full house and lots of stress with everyone wanting different things. It will be nice…
  • You are all simply amazing with the support. I am loving this group more and more. Today I weighed 174 even! I am relating this to food poisoning last night. But I'll pretend I was amazing lol I'm really trying to take out processed foods. Water is too hard because I really dislike water. I'll start commenting more on all…
  • You all are doing so well minus some injuries. I am having a really rough time staying on track. There is a lot going on in my life that I cannot control and would really like to know the outcome sooner rather than later. My weight fluctuates daily between 175-178lbs. I told myself that if I made it to 165 I would reward…
  • I am so excited to be apart of this group for accountability. I had a good week I thought and the scare was down to 174.2 but then this morning 175.2. Tuesday nights I take a MMA class at the gym and drink a ton of water so I am hoping that tomorrow the scale will be down again. I am trying to incorporate more exercise…
  • You all seem like a lovely group to join and be a part of. I need that motivation and extra help. I am the highest I have ever been due to health complications from having children and then emotional stress. I am hoping that in the next 6 months I can get back to focusing on me a little bit more and see that scale move…
  • Hello everyone!!! My name is Katie and I am truly in need of some helpful motivating friends! I am 5'0', 37 years told, 43 children, and work in HR sitting pretty much all day. I am ready to get this done. I am currently going through a lot in life but really need to focus on myself. I have got down to 133 lbs before…
  • I am 5'0" and 146lbs. Trying to get to 125! Add me, I can use all the motivation in the world and ready to dish it out also!!!
  • Don't be embarassed, life happens and then we realize it and fix it. That is just what you did! Be proud of yourself and the changes you have made to better yourself and your health!
  • Now that was hilarious and I totally agree. Everytime I start running I think to myself "WTF are you doing, this is so much work". Though when I am done it feels amazing and I get to eat! This guy definitely hit it right on the head!
  • Wisconsin: 91 today with humidity, so around 107. We have had this for the whole week and it doesn't look like it is going to stop. Wisconsin is supposed to be cooler at about 75. That is what I prefer. Can't run in 107/humidity.
  • I am always down for more!!!!!!!! Add me
  • I love this thread. Do you think though that America would be healthier if the prices of produce would go down? I mean when I look at my grocery bill the most expensive things on it are the produce. I don't tend to buy a lot of process foods but when I do they are a lot cheaper then produce by far.
  • I will be waiting for you at the finish line!!!! My plan is to keep running this week, just smaller distances so that my legs are still used to running. The day before maybe a small walk and some carbs. The day of the race I plan to wake up at 630 just because of traffic, eat a hard boiled egg, and drink maybe one cup of…
