For me being kind to myself is intrinsically linked to doing things for myself that I will appreciate later. Things like eating in moderation, I might want a hamburger but unless I REALLY REALLY want it I already know that it's not a great choice and is going to make me feel like rubbish, so instead most of the time I will…

I have a turning point photo, although it took me a few more months to actually get to turning. My Ex was taking photos of me playing with the kids at the park and shared one and I swear to GOD I have no chin, like my face just gradually disolves into my neck... which then gratually dissolved into my shoulders... I was…

Wow the change in how that shirt fits!! Congrats! As for the asshat, he was tactless and insensitive but day to day you wouldn't look different, you've reached the stage where you are making incremental changes which are when you see them year to year AMAZING but day to day you would look the same and people forget the old…

oooh that is a great way to think about it all.

Talk about face gains... and those eyes!!

I'm late but i just joined as well.

To get into my size 10 jeans again. To run a 10k all the way

Seriously let it go. You can either stew in the bitterness and let it make you angry and sad and frustrated or you can let it go, move on with your life. I don't say this lightly because I have been there. My ex paid no child support for the first 2 years, he demanded $50k in return for not challenging my DH and i moving…

awesome job

Wow! You went from cute to HOT! good work

How is everyone doing with this? I wanted to give it a try but am hesitant to just take her before and after pics as gospel (cause lets face it she is going to pick the best ones right?).

For the very first time in 10 years my husband it taking me to dinner...

What exercise are you doing? Are you weighing food and tracking calories accurately? Are you taking measurements?

I am by no means an expert but I would be worried about you eating under 1200 calories. Allot of the advice that you will read on the forums talks about calculating your TDEE and then eating to that. I suggest looking at http://scoobysworkshop.com and at his TDEE calculator to figure out how much you are supposed to be…

What she said! But seriously you can do this.

I'm not allowed to say I hate mine (SAHM) and generally I don't, but today.... I would quite happily sell the lot of them to the circus.

Can I please join you? I desperately need a holiday, or even just a weekend...

I have been at this since November and have not lost one single solitary kilo. Not one. BUT I have lost 11cm.... my point is that you may not have lost all of the weight you want but what about bulk?

The difference is as Izzwoz said above. My husband can have the most luscious gorgeous delicious looking pizza in front of him with everything he likes and made just right (and he likes the high calorie toppings!!) and he will eat until he is satisfied no more no less. He has maintained throughout his adult life a slim…

A litre of cookies and cream ice-cream washed down with 1.25L coke.

incredible. Your tattoo is pretty awesome too!

I confess that I have a mean heart. I dislike this about myself. but am working on changing it.

I'm in

Late to the party but username is study mum I use a 220 to track my runs.

Hey, fitting it in around the munchkins is difficult but can be done :smile: welcome.

My fear of failure has stopped me from doing so many things and caused me to lowball my entire life.

I am horrible about drinking coke, terrible. I can easily go through 3 or more litres a day and for me it has been known to replace food. Dreadfully unhealthy. I am currently back at square 1 giving it up AGAIN. So what has worked for me each time? Stock up on panadol (paracetamol) or neurofen (ibuprofen) and wait for the…

I used to work with a personal trainer who was also a sports massage therapist, she worked the Perth Cup when the Williams sisters played and reckons that she earned her money that year because those girls are ALL muscle! She was impressed. I have to side with allot of the others here, I want my own body back, I used to be…

My weightloss is nowhere near as big as yours, and right now I am back where I started. But I never noticed a change until I started achieving my NSV. I noticed I had achieved something when I ran a 10k race. I noticed when I could start buying smaller clothes, I noticed changes when my husband could pick me up. But I…

You are not alone. We all go through phases when we struggle. Right now I am struggling with self sabotage, but I know that I will get it under control and it will get easier.
