Trying to do the same right now. My hubby got stationed in Japan in June and I wanted to drop weight before I moved over there in December. We just found out that he's being deployed next April and I won't be able to go so I'm staying here in the states instead. I hope to see him once at the beginning of the year before…

Gorgeous as always Kerri, there's huge difference & I'm so proud of all your hard work. Truly an inspiration to all of us and you've earned every lb lost :flowerforyou:

If you're going to go with cereal get TOTAL flakes, most nutritional cereal there is on the aisle. It really does have almost 100% of your daily vitamins and minerals. BUT you need more protein than any cereal can offer so I'd pair it with eggs or turkey sausage or something of that nature.

How is everyone's day going so far?! Killing your workouts I hope! I've got bootcamp for the first time in a week tonight and I can't wait to get a serious burn in, I've been feeling down lately and I need a good kick in the rear. Hope all my Hotties are doing well :flowerforyou:

Congrats Des! I'm so glad everything went smoothly at the wedding and you looked BEAUTIFUL! Way to jump back on the wagon so soon :happy:

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" Challenge: Weeks 7 & 8! (sorry I've been having to do it 2 weeks at a time, things have been crazy). Week 7 we traveled a total of 144 miles (14,374 calories total)! That's an average of 29 miles per hottie that week. Congrats to Kerri for being our biggest burner…

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" Challenge: Weeks 5 & 6! Week 5 we traveled a total of 182 miles (18,247 calories total)! That's an average of 18 miles per hottie that week.

Although I'm a little confused about how I managed to lose…

Sorry I haven't been very active on the board lately, I'm dealing with some decisions that could completely change my course in life and I'm a little intimidated by it all. I have been reading all the posts and it looks like a lot of us are dealing with stress at the moment, but I'm proud to say it also looks like everyone…

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" Challenge: Week 4! This week we traveled a total of 261 miles (26,124 calories total)! That's an average of 19 miles per hottie this week. Congrats to Kerri for being our biggest burner this week with an amazing 2,920 calories!!! We slacked off a bit this week but…

SW (07.08.2011): 168 Week 1(07.15.2011): - - - Week 2(07.22.2011): 163.4 Week 3(07.29.2011): - - - Week 4(08.05.2011): 163.0 Not much of a loss but my food has been kind of off lately. Although its not been bad thing necessarily, I have overeaten a few days so I'm sure that has something to do with it. Still lost 7lbs in…

I feel you, I've been having that kind of day for the past 2 weeks consecutively lol. I was cutting up all my veggies last night and one of my roommates was like man I feel lazy now (she's atleast 5'7", size 0 and couldn't gain weight if her life depending on it). All I could do was look at her and say "If I looked like…

2GETHER.....still though it is the hardest part lol

^THIS! Still haven't been able to get my stuff out of his storage building which includes the china from my parents wedding and some pretty important childhood stuff. SO ANNOYING! Lol love it! :laugh:

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" Challenge: Week 3!!! This week we traveled a total of 326 miles (32,618 calories total)! That's an average of 27 miles per hottie this week (some didn't turn in their burns). Congrats to Andrea for being our biggest burner this week with an amazing 5,668 calories!!!…

Caroline, I was feeling exactly like this during May and June (although not because of work). I gained back 15 of the 25 lbs I had lost and felt hopeless because I had slid back out of control and wasted all my hard work. Because you're working so much its not fair to just suggest you wake up earlier or stay up later to…

Hate to be the Debbie Downer here but I think we'll just make it to LA lol. Its 4,100 miles from NY to LA on our route so we have to average about 340 miles a week which is the pace we're at right now. We might make it a week early but that's about it. BUT I'm all for the "swim" to Lorraine for our next challenge :smile:

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" Challenge: Week 2!!! This week we traveled a total of 360 miles (35,987 calories total)! That's an average of 22 miles per hottie(mph). Congrats to Dani for being our biggest burner this week with 4,422 calories! (Kerri was our biggest burner for last week with…

Well the weekend was a bust of course but I'm doing good today so atleast I've got this week off on the right foot. I STILL haven't done the Fit test but I WILL do it this wednesday along with this week's challenge (only day I don't have a double workout planned). Then it will be off to the lake again this weekend for a…

Most forums started by groups are open to new members that want to join at anytime. If it says "closed group" it is because the group is not accepting new members for various reasons (usually as an attempt to keep the group small & things simple). Less people = less confusion. Welcome to MFP though and good luck with your…

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/295630--happy-weight Check out that thread, I did it for ****s and giggles and i think the weight it gave me was too low but everyone else seems to think theirs was a bit high. Why would you want to look like a stick? Another girl who is 5'5" said she's 109 lbs, that's my minimum…

Ok, I just saw a girl on here with a GW of 80 LBS!!!! Unless she's 4' 6" and works out 5 days a week that is NOT a healthy weight!!! Her profile says "I want to be a walking stick" Since when did that become desirable or in the least bit acceptable????

Jen, GREAT WORK! You're so close, keep it up! Desirae, I had no idea your wedding was so close! How exciting, I'm glad everything is coming together so well. We did everything for my sister's wedding, decorations, food, flowers, and all so I know how stressful DIY can be but sounds like you're really on top of it! YAY!…

124?! I don't think I was EVER that small, even playing soccer year round. I'll stick with 130-135 and see how I feel when I actually get to that point. Kind of discouraging that it was so much lower than my goal weight....

Kerri, someone else has posted the same link you gave us about the scale vs. measurements and is spreading it around MFP :happy: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/295583-155-lbs-of-overweightness-versus-155-lbs-of-muscle

Although I'm still struggling with this I have gotten loads better in the last year. I don't even buy junk food so if I want to stress eat it has to be fruit or some crackers (although too much of those can add up too :noway: ). Sleeping is still my biggest issues, if I get stressed or down I crawl into bed and sleep the…

If it makes you feel any better you're my hero Lorraine lol. This is what I originally started college for (well film editing, not sound) but I switched to accounting because I thought I would have a really hard time finding a job when I got out of school doing what I wanted (films & trailers, not commercials and such). So…

My size 12's are getting baggy again and I can sit down in my M shirts without them busting at the seams now and I'm loving it. Also, this is a silly one but I work for a huge power company in the southeast and yesterday they sent out an email about how we were supposed to have a huge group of people protesting nuclear…

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" challenge: Week 1!!! Here is a map of our route from NYC to LA with everyone's cities between: This week we traveled a total of 346 miles (34,556 calories/100 calories per mile)! That's an average of 23 miles per hottie (I didn't include Caroline's numbers for this…
