Crazy NSV: I haven't bought underwear in a long time and they didn't fit all the way......not anymore I have full coverage in my undies now :happy:

I was happiest in a US 6 or 8, however this time around my goal is to be much more toned.

Wow! You look amazing, job well done!

Hey ladies, I completed my mile today, combo of running/walking up hill walk at 3.7 mph, run 5.5 mph at 15.27 min. I will do the 4 minute challenge Fri and post my stats here.

Hey ladies! I'm ready to start this challenge and I'll make sure to get in my mile 2moro.

My thighs aren't rubbing together anymore. My stomach is no longer hanging over my pants.

Caribbean girl here. First generation American, I grew up on rice and so many other traditional foods that are a no-no for me now

My husband picked me up the other day and said "Damn baby you light!" I'm thinking to myself oh so that's the reason I've haven't been getting pick me ups lol

Facebook doesn't help me lose weight, this site does just saying....

I ate a baked apple pie from McDonalds today..the damage 250 calories! (stupid me for not checking MFP first).

I've got about 12 pounds more to lose. It feels since I'm getting closer to my goal, this weight is literally crawling off of me :(

Bump

I'm currently 152 5'3, size 12, wearing med-large tops depending on the cut. I'm guessing I will have to slim down to the low 140s or high 130s to be a decent 6 or tight 8??

My goodness! You don't even look like the same person in your before photos. Job well done, thanks for sharing your inspiring story :)

Im soo glad I saw this, I only have around 20 lb to lose, so it's great to see a big difference. Congrats you look amazing and have inspired me :smile:

Over by 219..

I did the exact same thing to my hubby when I started eating healthier. However he said oh no honey you're on your own. That's great you want to eat healthier but I want to enjoy the foods I like. It was hard for me, but each day it's getting easier to avoid those temptations.

1. Drink all 8 glasses of H20 everyday 2. Meet possible exceed my quarterly weight loss goal (Feb 14) 3. Increase my time running

I must be the only one who weighs in every 2 wks (Sun), I do it for my sanity, I use to go crazy not seeing the scale drop after my workout or a few days after. It has worked for me, I've been consistenly losing. I take my measurements every 2 wks as well.

I try not to go below 450...however my workouts vary across the board. I really like when I've surpass my weekly goal of calories burned.

I was told that too for years!! I'm not a baby anymore but the you know what is still here lol

Congrats!! You look fantastic.,,, I hope to run a 5k one day too :)

Catherine 1979- Cleansing was an actual ritual in my house growing up... if anyone is familiar with castor oil my mom had my siblings and I drink it to cleanse our system (yuck).

Too funny

These are good, I forgot one a few years ago I had a "friend" who told me : "girl you can eat whatever you want, you're gonna burn it off in the gym anyways" Really? :huh:

I am going through the same thing with my husband. However in my case, I've tried dieting before and failed. So I believe he thinks this time will be like all the other times, when I get focused for like 6 wks and then I fall off the bandwagon. It's really hard when he continues to eat all the food that we're used to (and…

2% Milk ( I make a lot of shakes) Kashi Honey Almond Flax Bananas Pears Greek Yogurt Tuna Mission Carb Wraps Turkey ( Boars Head) Ground Turkey Carrot juice Any seafood item that is on sale

Red Quinoa thanks I'll look into that.

Thanks, great idea to use the broth instead of water (hopefully the sodium isn't too high). I love rice (seriously ate it everyday) but I'm trying to control myself from it for some time. Brown rice is good, maybe I prepare too bland and it's always mushy when I make it:ohwell:. Yup I'll def give an update when I try it.

Thanks I'm getting a lot of ideas already. Good to know I don't have to prepare it plain.
