I'm 5'11, with about 45 pounds to lose. Feel free to add me!

Great Job!!! You look amazing!

I cook up a big batch of ground turkey with mushrooms, peppers & onions on Sunday. You can put that on a salad, tacos, all kinds of stuff. I also steam up a big bag of kale. Never thought I would like kale, but I actually crave it, so good!! That's real food, no fat free crap or processed junk. Could also grill up some…

Wow, that is totally awesome! I think I'm going to steal your idea!! :smile:

You look awesome! I love what you wrote, I'm going to copy it & use it as inspiration! I've tried every diet out there & I've finally come to realize that once I turn it over to the Lord, with his help & a lot of determination on my part, I can do this! Thanks for posting!

Anyone, please feel free to add me!

I haven't seen that app, but I'm gonna check it out. Thanks!

You can add me, looking for friends as well!

Please count me in! This is the hardest time of year for me with holidays, birthdays, family reunions!! I'm doing a beach body challenge currently for October & have even fell off the wagon on that, but I'm back on track now.

Great job! I'm gonna start using the "skinny girls don't _________" Love it! Thanks for being an inspiration!

You look amazing! GREAT JOB!!!

I try not to weigh myself at all during that week.....:(

I use the circuit training.

I'm with you, but I try to tell myself that anything worth having - good health, feeling comfortable in my own skin, etc. - takes hard work and planning. Eating healthy & working out comes naturally to some people & not to others (me!). It has taken me a long time to accept that. It is what it is.....

bump!

Wow, you look awesome!

I'm also doing Turbo Fire. I'm with MsJohnson16, how do you log it? there are so many different DVD's, and I'm really not that coordinated yet to say I gave 110%, so I'm not sure how many calories I'm burning.

I'm in the same boat; but I'm a working mama. I've lost about 11 lbs. since January 1st, but am having trouble with the weekends! I'm from the south, so food is a huge part of our lives. I'm starting fresh again today!!!! Good Luck, we can do this, I pushed two babies out of my "you-know-what", so what's a little weight…

I can't do fat free mayo, cheese or dressings. I don't mind the reduced fat, but to me the fat free taste like @ss.

I'm in VA and got mine at a health food store. GNC would probably have it as well. I always have a few with me, even doing that makes me feel more at ease. Good Luck and hang in there!

The same thing happened to me when I quit smoking 4 years ago. I would stay up all night with panic attacks. Once a panic attack starts (at least with me), nothing works. I refuse to take prescription meds for it, it's fight or flight. I just fight it until it goes away. Of course, that's just me. Everyone is different.…

I NEVER weigh myself the week before or the week during my period! I always gain a few lbs. around that time & feel like a cow. I try to drink lots of water to get rid of the fluid tension I tend to keep. Good Luck!

CONGRATULATIONS!! You're exactly right.........one day at a time! Thank you for the words of inspiration today! I really needed them! :)

Thank you so much!! I LOVE this site!

You're going to gain weight, that's just how it is. I quit smoking 3 years ago & I have about 25 lbs. that I cannot drop due to switching my addiction from ciggs to food. I'm just trying to be healthy. Trading one addiction for another is not helping that cause. I am a mother of two young kids, so I'm just doing the best I…
