I am 5'5 and have more to go, but I think it's a great start! I don't have an official before pictures, because I've done the specific before pictures and usually just gave up and then felt even worse about myself. So this time around I just jumped on board and away I went. So here I am 1 year and 72.8 pounds (as of…

Thanks for the info! I will scale back a bit I think! Keep it between 60-80oz, which I felt better at! :)

I currently drink around 110oz of water a day and I feel like I am going to the bathroom every hour on the dot if not every 30 minutes some days, and I know I should be drinking an additional 80oz for my weight on top of what I already do (according to the calculation 2/3 of my current weight). Does your body eventually…

I've been hypothyroid since I was 13 and have tried twice over my 34 years on this planet to use the generic and it just didn't work. I felt like a train wreck, so I too, have to stick to name brand. I don't know what it is about it, but it just doesn't work. It's the only medicine I've ever encountered that won't work…

I'm a huge fan of anything Zumba, and there are a bazillion workouts you can find on YouTube by different people or groups. I can't stand the thought of going to a gym and walking on a treadmill, or stair climber, etc..but Zumba is actually FUN! I look forward to working out! The best part is...I get a great workout, my HR…

I have tried Cize, but I feel like I'm not getting equal workouts to both sides of me...if that makes any sense? Like they focus on one side of the body more than the other and it just feels awkward. I tried it for about a month and i just didn't get the same results as I did with Zumba. I've done Zumba for 10months and I…

So the original picture was me December 2014. We started our amazing life change in March and now I am 56.4 lbs gone. I still have a while to go, but I can tell a huge difference and hope you can too :)

The weather turned a little chilly recently here and I put on a jacket I wore last year, that was tight and I couldn't zip up....but that baby not only zipped up but was almost TOO BIG!! Love the NSV!! ;)

I had no idea how much eating a bad meal would affect me, and the scary thing was, I used to eat bad like that ALL the time until I made my life change. I watched what I did for Thanksgiving, but went a little over..and I felt like crap for 2 days!! I have learned my lesson about how important eating healthy is!! I hit my…

Whoo hoo!! I've lost just over a bale of hay! :smiley:

I do the exact same thing!! I lost 6lbs which I was super excited about and then did the exact same thing and gained back 3 the following week! I do not know why I do it either! It is suuuuuper frustrating :sad: I do not think I will do weekly weigh in's....maybe every couple weeks or even monthly. I just sabotage myself…

It is so refreshing to see others with the same crazy sleep schedule as me! I have been driving myself nuts trying to figure out how to count my calories when I work nights (7p-7a) 3days a week, then live like a normal person the other 4 days. I will try the 12-12 idea!! My WORSTday to count is always the day/night of my…

Wow, what a wonderful welcome!! I'm a Mom of two beautiful boys, ages 10 and 7 and work full time. Just graduated college in November...and gonna start back in Spring for my Bachelors...so I think if i get into a good routine now, the transition back into full time school/work won't be so bad. I'd ideally like to lose…

Same issue here! Not sure how to deal with it. I've gained so much weight working this crazy 7p-7a schedule! I feel for ya!
