You all look great! Way to go!! I'm trying to share mine but can't get my photo codes to post! lol

Wow...amazing! Thanks for sharing, you are truly inspiring and you look awesome!!! =D

Way to go!!! I'm down about 65 lbs. so far...started at the same weight as you, I can't wait to get down to 150 lbs. again! That's my ultimate goal! Thanks for sharing!! =) You look amazing!

Thank you! It's rough...I thought for so long (becuase I was told) that it was nearly impossible to lose weight with PCOS...in the end, I'd like to reach at least 100 pounds lost but I'm trying to be patient because it really IS a slow process. My first 50 pounds came on in less than a year, that was before I even had…

I've had my account on here for a while but just recently started using it...I kept track of everything before though so I logged all the previous dates too when I signed up on here to keep track! =) I HAVE kept a food diary every day for the last year though and that is my MAIN weight loss tool...even though I don't pay…

Thanks!! =)

Thank you all!!! =)

Thanks! I'm 5'5" and 195 pounds right now. So crazy because back in high school, I wore this same size but weighed 40 pounds less! lol It's crazy how much of a difference some muscle can make and how our bodies can change. I still have a LONG way to go but I'm feeling so much better. I just started making lifestyle changes…

Thank you all! =) And no knee pain but I did have to take it easy on the hard jumping because of my weak ankle...I just modified what I had to and did my best!

Insanity is a 60-day workout program! I actually posted a quick blog about it if you're interested in reading!! =) http://momsgonestrong.blogspot.com/2013/07/my-insanity-experience.html

Thanks everyone!! =)

Thanks everyone! =)

I agree with the others, just focus on making healthy choices and getting as much rest as you can! It will start falling off and then once you're good & healed, start out slow with some walking or yoga. I always hear that weight loss is 80% nutrition so don't even worry about the exercise at this point! =)

Thank you!! =)

Thank you all!! =) I found another picture to add just now...it almost doesn't even seem real that I was that big! lol From a size 18/20 to a 10/12 already!!

So far, my progress has been awesome! I'm just now starting Week 6 and I feel amazing. I have so much energy and I'm feeling a lot stronger. My Fit Test results have improved drastically. I'm enjoying the workouts a lot even though they're tough and I've learned that I loooove cardio!! =) My only advice is to not give up!…

Thank you!! My hubby started with me too but only made it a couple days! ;) I swear after the first week it gets more tolerable...still rough but your body gets used to being pushed. It's all mind over matter, I definitely didn't want to keep going but I'm glad I did!!! =)

Thank you!! =) I'm just now starting week 6 actually! This was just my results from the first month!! =) And yes, I would definitely up your calorie intake. Mine just depends on how much I'm burning and how hungry I am...I don't really limit myself, just try to focus on making healthy choices and not overeating. Just don't…

Thanks!! I think I may do that...had to skip a day this weekend since we were gone but I finished up Week 5 last night and am doing my Fit Test today. I was nervous about cramming all that in one so I think I'll take your advice. I will definitely have to ease into it...just the 35-40 minute workouts are hard for me so I…

Thank you all!! this is only the first month!! lol I'm just now starting Month 2 so I will update again at the end!! =) Down 5 pounds so far since Day 1!

Awesome! Good luck to all of you doing Insanity too and thanks, everyone! I had to take a few days off too because of a stupid sinus and ear infection that kept coming back. Nothing is stopping me now though! lol I'm going to start Turbofire after this, I can't wait!

LOL Thank you!!

I usually take in around 2,000 calories each day...sometimes less, sometimes more but I always make sure to eat when I'm hungry!! lol It just depends on the day and how much exercise I get and how I feel. MFP really helps me stay on track...although, I really don't think you should worry much about limiting calories if…

Thank you all!! =)

I've only lost 5 lbs. but my whole body is changing and I'm only 30 days into Insanity!! =) Try not to focus on the scale so much...not only does it fluctuate and cause headaches but muscle gain makes a huge difference!! Just be sure to take measurements and I promise you will see AND feel change!

Eeeh! I know it! lol No more rolls! And I can see my collar bones and neck again...awesome! I'm pretty proud! lol Thank you!

Thanks everyone! =)

Thanks everyone! =)

Awesome! You look amazing! =)

Awesome!!!
