I will definitely try that. Had not thought of that before, but it sounds like a good idea!

What is a TDEE?? lol Thank you for the suggestion - Hopefully if I do Zumba, I won't scare hubby if he comes home early, lol. :)

haha!! Congratulations! :)

You must be SO proud of yourself!!! You look awesome! Plateau or no, you are still looking great. Keep up your excellent work!

Thanks everybody - I am drinking water now and will switch to tea when I get tired of water. Thanks for the encouragement, everyone! I did give in and eat half a donut this morning, so I will just think about how I enjoyed that instead of lusting after the goopy, icing-coated, calorie-laden, bloat-inducing garbage left…

WHOA! You look great! You look much younger and happier. Congratulations to you on such amazing success!!

I have a co-worker that's manic depressive

OOh I've been there. My worst binge in college was probably going through the Arby's drive through and getting 3 or 4 things of cheesy potato tots and then eating an entire bag of fun size Take 5's. Within this calendar year, my worst binge has probably been an entire bag of Oreos or an entire pint of ice cream inside 24…

Keep it up!!! You are doing WONDERFUL!!!

Haha! Same!

Hi everybody! I'm 5'1", 5'2" on a good day, haha. I'm 25 and am shooting for 115. I have little feet and little wrists, so I think thinner makes more sense for me. However, that said, I'm not stuck on a number. I'm stuck on a look! I would like to look like Kelly Ripa, but less defined and less muscular. I think she is…

Hello! Congrats to you and welcome back. Great story you have going on - I wish you much continued success. I agree with you entirely about eating the same thing everyday. I used to be an emotional eater and learned that I can give myself comfort by forming habits around my eating, instead of eating a cheesecake, haha. I…

Hi RockabillyWife! I'm 25 and from NYC. I'd love to be your accountability buddy!

Haha! :)

@Gorilla; Perhaps. Not sure if he'd be into me though - it's hard out here for a dalek.

It was a number of things for me too... I lost 30 pounds right after I left college and got down to 130ish, which was in the high end of the "healthy" BMI range for my height. I was happy about it and was okay with my body, then I got married and moved from an extremely small town to New York City, where I had no support…

Kerrilynda would date a guy who rakes the leaves on the weekend. Tropical Flower would date a guy who likes soccer/futbol. P.S. I'm the one in the black ;-)

You look great! Congrats on fitting into a piece of clothing like that - I have a pair of jeans that I am going to rock as soon as I can fit back into them! Can't wait. Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm so happy to see this post! I'm doing W1W1 of C25K tonight and am feeling really excited to see your post as well as the comments that followed. I hope we are both doing Jingle Bell Runs 8/9 weeks from now!

Congrats on your success so far! I hope you take a minute to pat yourself on the back for the hard work you did that got you here!!! I wish you continued success!!! You are an inspiration for sure! xoxo
