  • I always wanted to marry a tall guy, but instead fell in love with my husband who's 2" shorter than I am. :) I've actually only dated one guy who was significantly taller. Part of it, I think, is where I've lived. I spent this last Thanksgiving in Minnesota, and there were tall men everywhere. Florida? Not so much. I've…

  • Emily, I love your profile photo!
  • I thought I'd introduced myself a while back, but apparently not...so here goes! My name is Elisebet, and I'm a stay-at-home mom, former teacher, Navy wife, and Army veteran. My husband is in school in Texas right now, but we've been stationed in the Hampton Roads, VA area for the last two years. After he graduates we'll…
  • My biggest challenge is being able to workout. With my husband gone, there's no one to watch our son, and I can't afford the gyms that have childcare. I do home workouts as much as I can, but I really struggle to be motivated to do them! And if my son is awake, well...he's climbing all over me while I'm exercising,…
  • I'm training for a half too! This will be my first one, and it's in April. -Okay, clearly I don't know how to use these forums yet. This response was meant for Lindsay!
  • Hi, my name is Elisebet, and I'm 30 (*sob*). I'm a Navy wife and former Army reservist (I'm in the IRR now, actually, if you know what that is). My son and I are in Virginia Beach, but my husband is in Pensacola for a few months. We're not sure where we're going next yet. I gained too much weight while pregnant, and it…
  • Hi, I'm 5'10". SW: 186 CW: 152 GW: 145* The best shape I've ever been in my life I was 150lb., but I had a lot of muscle then. I'm fine with the numbers on the scale staying the same as long as I continue to build muscle. But I want to lose 3-4" off my waist.
  • I have one cheat night every single week. It helps me stay on track the rest of the week, because I know I can have whatever I want on my cheat night.
  • Wow! You are doing awesome! It's inspiring. =D
  • I sent you a friend request, if you want to add me. Do you plan for a "cheat meal" or "cheat day"? That's helped me a lot, because I know it's okay to eat whatever I want for a meal (sometimes it turns into several over the weekend). During the week I usually do great.
  • Height: 5'10" CW: 159 GW: 145 I say 145, but I'm fine with 150 provided I'm very toned with low body fat. I want to be muscular not skinny.
  • In my opinion the number on the scale is not important. You can take two people at the same height and same weight, undress them, and they make look completely different naked. I'm 5'10" and throughout high school and college, I averaged 135-140lbs. But the best shape I've ever been in my life was at 150lbs. ...because…
  • What I did was manually entered 1500 calories as my calorie limit for each day, because I've read that's the "safe" number for breastfeeding moms who want to lose weight. Then I tried to eat as close to that as possible and didn't worry about entering breastfeeding in. It all evened out. Never had trouble with my milk…
