Absolutely rockin' the interview pants man!! Well done!!! p.s. not at all seeing the personality of drywall from your post--very well done!!

I totally agree you deserve AT LEAST 10 pages for all your accomplishments!!!! Simply amazing and humbling!

Poor Kid--eighth grade is the absolute worst!!! My school had the great idea to have kids "buy" carnations for one another. I, of course, got none. And I had a friend that got one from a boy she hated, and was creeped out...what were they thinkin'. Someone is bound to get their feelings hurt...why add to it needlessly.

TOTALLY agree--Coke Zero is by far superior in taste to Diet Coke...and I drink quite a bit of it and diet mt. dew (one can a day most days), and I think I'm ok. I suppose we'll have to see if I die early, but I seriously doubt that's what will kill me...

I will be your pal :) FR sent!

Thanks OP--I really got a lot out of your advice!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Coke Zero :)...if you add a little sugar free vanilla syrup it is FABULOUS!!!!

You look FABULOUS!!! YAY!

Old women at the Y do not like when you bring your son in the changing room...and they are MEAN about it! I'd understand if he was 10 but he was just 3...crikey

Of COURSE she is--that's what hot wives do...

Chicken, pork with veggies would probably be your best bet--I agree to stay away from the egg rolls, rangoons, all that yummy fried stuff. Good luck!

I had a friend that did that diet, and it didn't work for her either. It's just not sustainable nor sensible. There really is no quick fix, unfortunately. I agree with everyone else that you should start using MFP and work with its calorie limits, then add exercise, then work with your settings (the carb/protein/fat…

Wow!! I would say you look like you've lost a lot more than you have--stupendous work!! Look at those collar bones poking out :)!!!!

I take my HRM--it is lower than the MFP but seems more accurate to me--maybe not spot on but closer.

Just my opinion, and it's not even an educated one, but for me, it helps to know that there are no forbidden foods. I need to learn moderation, and the way my brain works, if I feel deprived, I will want that thing SO much. If I eat it, I am less likely to obsess. I have kids and a husband, so there's not really a way for…

Even with the face shot I can see what an amazing job you've done--congratulations!!

I love to make a stir fry (chicken, mushrooms, veggies) then put over the rice...so yummy, filling and good for you!

I have only done local 5k's /8k's where the proceeds go to charity. I think the most expensive one is $25. I get a t-shirt, snacks at the end, etc. They even award prizes for the top finishers. Not sure I'd be willing to spend much more...it would have to be a pretty good race for a pretty great cause.

I quit smoking a year ago after 22 years of smoking. Here's what worked for me. You have to REALLY want to quit...do your research about addiction, the harmful effects of nicotine. My big motivation was that both my parents died from lung cancer--I loved them, and wanted to honor them. Also, I watched two very special…

Now, I'm an old married woman, but when I was dating, there were lots of guys who passed me by, some of whom I thought were attractive/smart/nice, etc. The same happened to my husband--some girls apparently even laughed at him when he asked them out--how rude!). Neither of us is "all that" --but he certainly is to me, and…

Sounds about right if your HR is that high.

What a great job you've done!!! You look SO fit, healthy and happy!!!! WTG!!!

I have done it twice :)...and I really like it, but I wouldn't want to do just this. The first time I did level 1 & 2 together (which was not an hour...more like 75-80minutes). This morning I tried to get through both level 1 & 2, and ran out of time (I did a full hour and had two circuits left on level 2). I was REALLY…

Just say they were out of it...

AWESOME!!!!!! I think I like when clothes fit that never used to even more than watching the scale go down!!

Great job!! You have made a huge difference not only in how you look, but in your life! I'll bet your are a SUPERB role model for your kiddos!!

LOL...it probably would have if I was smart :)

no way amanda j--- I'm 43
