My Honda Shadow keeps me off prozac and keeps me from becoming an alcoholic. I usually ride her 25,000 miles a year. I really have been neglecting her since last Fall when I really became focused on my fitness. Plus, Spring hasn't really shown up yet so she is feeling neglected. I am doing a Sprint Triathlon in 3 weeks and…

Yes sarcastic.

OMG perverts are allowed on MFP??? OK Maybe I don't have to hide my true character

Piercings have an age limit now?

Awesome :) The one: Strong people don't put others down, they lift them up. My FAV :) Thank you for posting.

I'm thinking Pizza. Is it bad? Yep but deliciously bad and I've been training like a demon for my first Sprint Triathlon in 3 weeks, did my first Tri event at the YMCA yesterday so maybe that might be a mini reward. OK it sounds like I am trying to justify it for myself. Someone else order it for me please and have it…

A Sprint Triathlon in 3 weeks. 300m swim, 15.5k bike, and finish up with a 5k run. I started C25K app January 1 (Yeah what a cliche but I stuck with it), ran my first 5k 3/9/13 and bravely (crazily??) signed up for this Tri last week. I did a Y Tri event yesterday at my local YMCA event that was an eye opener but at the…

Wonderful :) Keep it up!

Awesome results!! Who cares how much you have to lose, the pics are an amazing transformation! We all are on here for a reason. Strut your stuff, you are rocking this :) I am doing my first Sprint Tri in three weeks. I was debating Insanity after the training, and after your post, you sold me! Keep up the good work.

LOL both of you :) Yeah we are bad *kitten*, right? YUP getting healthy is what first propelled me on this journey. 5 blood pressure down to 2 and probably off them completely soon. Now I am doing this stuff to see what I am capable of :O)

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. No one can replace the love and support of a Mom. I lost Dad 12 years ago and thought that was hard, Mom 5 years ago. That still to this day rocks my world. Welcome back to the MFP community and feel free to add me for support. Good luck on your journey and know that your…

Thanks :) I already emailed you. Thanks everyone.

HI. I am not good at the pics and sizing but here they are. First one May, 2012 276 pounds, and the second one is March 9, 2013 when I was running my first 5k, 34:50 (Not bad for an old 50 year old, eh) at 190. I am 185 now. It hasn't been easy but not as hard as I thought it would be. I have 20/25 pounds to reach my goal…

I'm in :)

Catholic institution is irrelevant *I am a Catholic and went to Catholic school* B)She should be fired.

I signed up for a Y Tri challenge this Sunday at my local Y. It'll be a great insight into it and still doing some brick workouts. I will keep you guys updated when the race is over. Thanks again for all the insight and advice. Veronica

I out of the obese category for my BMI finally. Still overweight but not too far out of healthy.

Wonderful NSV!! So where is the picture of the dress? LOL You know us girls wanna see :)

I'm with you Robin. Walking Dead rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go on with your bad self :) Great job. You have every reason to be proud.

I am in the middle of training for my first Sprint Triathlon on April 14th but then my next workout will be Insanity. You can add me if you want. Oh, and I am a Mets fan. LOL Just FYI and a huge Giants fan in case that is relevant but more importantly I am a daily logger, active daily, have lost 90 pounds, I think I am a…

Watching the sunrise at the beach, spending some hours dipping the toes in the water, working on the tan, finally cruising west on the motorcycle to the Blue Ridge Parkway to catch a sunset up there.

I concur! I have been doing the same thing since January....

I don't believe you are wrong. Good daycare is extremely hard to find and that's why I did my own for years when my kids were little. I think you are helping her out quite a bit. You sound like you go out of the way. I hope she wakes up to appreciate you. Good luck with the situation.

Just a friendly warning: You might get the firefighters in uniform at first, but then you might find yourself in your own orange uniform jumpsuit. LOL But hey if they are really hot, it might be worth it, eh?

Absolutely! First of all, thank you for serving our country. Second of all, welcome to the world of MFP :) You will find all kinds of people on here, just like the real world. I will send you a friend request and wish you luck on your journey!

I am grateful when I lost a ton of this weight, the boobs didn't go. My biggest fear as I lose the rest of my goal weight *20/30 pounds* they will disappear forever. How else do you hide a beer belly? LOL I used to like my feet but then I started running and now they are ugly but I will accept that as a part of my losing…

LOL So glad I am not alone. I won't repost stuff like this on Facebook if there is a spelling error.

My face shrunk but you can see my wrinkles more, hence I call them my shrinkles :-/

My first 80 pounds came off from only walking.
