I work 7 days a week 10-12 hrs per day. I have a somewhat active job. I run a carpet cleaning and janitorial business, as well as a construction and remodeling business. I also have a 15yo and a 2yo and a husband that want my attention as soon as I walk in the door. It is hard at times to get to the gym, especially this…

Don't use it. Unless you want to fart out orange oily stuff in front of everyone. It is terrible!!! I have found that just by following the myfitness pal calories and exercising helps so much more than any pill, potion or otherwise.

You are actually doing really good. Don't get discouraged, I am only losing about 1lb-1.5lbs/ week and I thought I was doing great. I gave up on thinking I should be losing 20 lbs in a month, that my friend, is not realistic. And if you feel hungry, EAT. You are working out a lot and your body needs energy to keep going. I…

I understand how you feel. I am the same way, but what I did is set my alarm at 5 am to give me plenty of time to roll myself out of bed. I need to be at the gym by 6am in order to get in a good workout and get to work on time at 8 am. I always have a cup of coffee before I go as well, while watching the morning news. I am…

I am 5'1", almost 5'2" :D and my goal is to get down to 130 lbs. I have been down to 115 lbs and looked way too skinny and sick, and when I was between 120-130 I thought I looked good and so did other people. I got up to 210 lbs right before my son was born, who is now 14 months old. I started really working out and…

I had my daughter when I was 18. I was NOT ready but I had to learn. It was tough, not health or pregnancy wise but being a kid having a kid. I went on to college etc. got married when I was 30 and had my beautiful son at 31. He is now 13 months old, beautiful and healthy. I on the other hand I had a rough pregnancy, went…

I've cut back from 3-4 times a week to once a week and slowly I'm craving it less. I only do it socially now instead of by myself at home. Exersise has pretty much taken over the drinking and I feel so much better.

Wow, the way you told your story was awesome. COngrats on your success. This site has also helped me to get started in my weight loss journey as I too was having trouble losing the baby weight.

Reading everyone's posts is great motivation. I am excited for this challenge. I would love to be down 15 lbs by x-mas. I am 32 5' 2".... I had my son in April and went from 140 to 210 lbs :noway: ( had gained 10 lbs then found out I was preggo, I was 130 lbs 6 months before that.) Now it's time to get back down to my…

The first step is to admit it and then it gets easier from there. You can do it!! Just keep at it and it gets easier. The first two weeks are always the hardest.
