This might sound super weird but I think I saw your results on tumblr too! You look amazing!

I'm in no way a success yet.... But I am struggling with not wanting to restrict and knowing when enough is enough. I am working on being more mindful so I can tell myself that I don't really need a certain foodstuff and I'm just bored/emotional/lonely/etc.

Wow!! Amazing! You've got a rockin' shape!

What they said ^ But also wanted to add... If you want to wear tank tops... Just do it :) I hate my arms but I won't suffer in summer haha I always wear tanks

what confuses me is that there are like 3 different ways of finding TDEE... Katch-McCardle, Miffler and Harris-Benedict... And they all give me different numbers... Katch-McCardle would have me eating 1500 calories while Miffler and Harris-Benedict have me eating 1900.... So which one is more accurate as an obese woman?

Last weekend I was helping my mom do some pretty intense gardening. Afterwards she said to me "I don't mean to sound mean, but if we had done this last year, I don't think you would have been able to do half the work you did today!" It felt really nice to hear that I'm doing more work around the house without it killing me…

I did my first bench press about a month ago and I'm doing 60 lbs now :) Hoping to up to 65 soon ^_^ One day I'll have big plates on the bar :P But I'm in no rush ahha

04/15- 4km Total so far: 27 km

After a week in Mexico- 15km Total so far: 23km

5 km today! Total so far: 8km (will be unable to post updates for a week, but will update on the 13th :) )

I applied for a job at Orange Theory... It seems really cool and the requirement for employees is to do at least 2 workouts there a week. I didn't get it so I can't say if it's good but it seems to be. Congrats on loving it... That's awesome :)

Hey I'd like to start this up again now that the weather is getting better :) My goal for April will be 90 km. 04/01- 3km

Yea I'd be down, depending what kind of challenges we're talking about :)

lol I half expected this to be a joke, but I was not expecting a rick roll ;) Well played.

If you are extremely diligent I would say 25 lbs ish... That's at 1.5-2 lbs a week every week until then

Yeah my FitBit calculates it for me, so I don't actually log it as exercise but if it gives me an extra 5000 steps then bonussss

Personally, if I go to the gym before I eat something, my workout suffers greatly. I can't lift nearly as much and I run out of energy much faster. I'd rather eat something to give me a boost of energy and be able to get a really satisfying workout.

I think Ranch is the most disgusting dressing ever and I always grossed out when people use it as dip.... Yuck.

I could be wrong, but I'd think it is the effort you put in based on your own fitness level. If you are sweating your *kitten* of and your legs are sore and you're panting... That's probably vigorous effort if it's consistent. Personally, I never go vigorous because I know that right now, it's never consistent so even if I…

I'm on W4D2 and it's getting tough now... Last time I gave up in week 3 so I'm already ahead of myself but man... Soon will be 8 minute runs and that's hard... Getting nervous about it.

I'm not trained and I also have about 50 lbs to lose. But I would love to be able to motivate someone and get motivated in return through. Please feel free to PM me and let me know what you are looking for in a mentor :)

Amazing :)

Yeah I had a counselor suggest that I had SAD but I was never officially diagnosed. He did suggest I get a lamp that simulated UV light but it was mad expensive. This year, aside from being friggen dark and cold, has actually been a bit better for me and I think it has to do with 1. allowing myself to be around people 2.…

Oh your body shape is very much like mine... Makes me feel good that your smaller shape can look fantastic while still holding your shape :)

I started at 233, now 220, need to lose around 55 lbs. Please feel free to add me :)

I'm pretty much the same, low arch, overpronate.... I went to the Running Room and got them to fit me with a pair. It's been mostly great :) They're Asics, but I don't know which ones :$

Asics! Though I do think I liked my Brooks better... Until my dog ate them...

I really hope Rachel wins! She has worked so hard and I think she deserves it.. I think the moment I said, yeah she deserves it, was when they went to the Olympic training centre and she was the only one who cooked and prepared days worth of food so she knew she would be eating properly.. Amazing. I'm so excited for it lol…

My first triumph is finally getting my bf to come to the gym! He's been avoiding it for months... The second may seem pathetic to any runners out there, but I have been unable to run to run for more than 2-3 minutes at a time forever... But today I ran for 4 minute intervals for the entirety of my C25K.. I'm proud of me!

Wow well done! Diet soda will end me haha So I hear you :)
