You look beyond amazing! Thank you for posting this! I needed a little bit of motivation today (to see that if I keep going IT WILL COME OFF!)

Bump

I slammed out my workout this morning and while I finish my final assignment for my Master's degree I get to watch my gorgeous little dog play with his new toy :) I should be stressed and yet I'm relaxed and happy :)

I wasn't a big breakfast person so I go the smoothie option- protein powder, almond milk, fruit (bananas, strawberries, raspberries, pear... whatever you have), almond meal or baby spinach or baby kale (you can't taste it!) and a touch of honey if you need it sweeter. Oh and some ice (and an egg if you need extra…

BAHAHAHA good one :laugh:

Let me know how you feel tomorrow :tongue: I usually feel a slight ache the following day that reminds me I used them all- but the 2nd day is always a kicker! And I religiously have a protein shake within half an hour of my weights sessions, as I found it lessened the pain & helped me to repair quicker! Maybe you're just…

Number 1- Going into clothing stores with your friends and having to pretend you're just not interested in the clothes (even though they are spectacular) because you know the store only stocks up to a size 16- and even a size 16 wouldn't fit over your head.

Just passed the 6mth mark... and onto the 7th....... there is light at the end of the tunnel!

MFP has me set at 1210 at the moment. I don't tend to Net 1200 as my workouts are at the end of the day and tend to claw back 500-700 cals from me after my eating is done. I don't have that much trouble staying under, but as I workout most days I will eat at least half of my exercise cals back as if I don't I feel as…

I honestly love it- just because it works for me if I can't convince myself to chew food early in the morning (laziness at its best hahaha) and I can drink it while I'm driving to work (convenience!). But I have a few tricks as I find the shake itself doesn't fill me up all the time- like using a stick blender and adding…

Flab2Fab: 31?

Bump (dying of laughter currently!)

Not Elaine.... haha! Melissa?

Hahaha super close! I wish my name was chloe... but I start with an E

qtraro -Leah?

I have recently faced that fear! Including about 2hrs ago so I know what is going through your mind! I managed to pull myself through a whole class of body pump the other week... the instructor was amazing! And although it killed and I took a few "pauses"- it was SO MUCH FUN! (i hurt for DAYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS after though…

It will be daunting the first week or so... take it easy. Try all the equipment, ask questions, if you're brave go to a class or two. But as your confidence builds, so will your endurance! Enjoy what you are doing! If you can get a strength training circuit made for you (my gym updates mine every 8wks for free!) then do…

You can encourage... but that is about it. Remember when that light went off in your head, when you decided to fight for your health? There has to be a personal trigger to motivate you. My "trigger" wasn't my family pointing out for the 1000th time that "have you gained?"... I grew up with my brothers calling me fat from…

We get all types at my gym (ladies only)... I always get jealous of the ones that can walk in and out with a full face of makeup- but then again they do tend to chill on the machines doing a rep per minute. They entertain me mostly if I've left my ipod at home! Me? I'm the one who walks-in wearing leggings and two sports…

I'm in a 40F and I just can't WAIT for them to deflate!!!! Bring it on!!!!

Nothing like losing 35kgs just to cement that though right? :wink: hehehe

Main reason I started- I'm SO sick of comparing myself and being compared to my gorgeous tiny friends forEVER! I've always been the girl with awesome boobs and "cute" face when we go out........ I WANT TO BE THE HOTTY! And so help me, I will be!! Every drop of sweat, every aching muscle, every hour "wasted" at the gym,…

Having the same issue, I came off the Pill last September (as it was the cause of my Deep Vein Thrombosis). Finally started to get regular periods as of May- I started this health regime early August and since mid-august (where I had about a 2 day period) it has GONE completely! I spoke to my doctor Monday about it, who…

I know plenty of people who've lost weight on the shakes (the replace 2 meals diet). My mum lost about 15kg over about 6mths. But low and behold, she has put it back on when she started eating proper meals again. I tried them, biggest loser shakes, slimfast, ultraslim- but I anything I lost I put straight back on because I…

I started with 35+kg to lose... now I've lost 11kg. Feel free to add me :happy:

24lbs down 45lbs to go! Feel free to add :happy:

Hiya, 26 yro 3hrs north of Melb lost 10.3kg since August. Feel free to add :smile:

Sorry that was the name he had it under on his phone... apologies!

First of all this thread is hilarious! But where do I start....lets go with the top three... 1. I was dumped at 18 because and I quote "what I can get off you I could get off a prostitute"... on our first "date" (took me to maccas and then to a pool hall) he proceeded to get me beyond drunk (i was vomiting), took me home…

Saturday mornings when I crawl out of bed to head in for my yoga class... I wear my uggs sometimes (now it's hitting summer not so much)... but I walk into class and they come off- Yoga is barefoot!! Can't imagine how much these people would be in pain..... wowza!
