Just want to put this out there to anyone new or old to MFP .. feel free to add me, but above all remember YOU CAN DO THIS!! Keep your eye on the finish line! Best of luck to, everyone :smile:

Hey!!! Thanks.. Yeah - it's sort of odd.. In 2012, I had a very severe allergic reaction. I didn't have another one until this past father's day and this one was even more severe. Since then I've had at least 2 other allergic reactions and basically I am allergic to practically everything. Anyway, it was not until my first…

My normal Monday through Friday day is: Breakfast: Greek yogurt Lunch: Kale, Broccoli, Sweet Peppers, Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Sweet Potato, Grapes, Pineapple, Apple, Mango, Kiwi, Pistachios or Almonds. Snack: String cheese; sometimes chips and / or a little chocolate on occasion. Dinner: Varies (depends on what we are doing…

What do you mean by "complete break"? I usually exercise 4 or 5 days per week between 30 and 48 minutes (depending on what my workout is that day). I've been exercising like this since roughly mid-2011. Thanks, Crystal

My labs & vitals have all been good (except my Vitamin D was unusually low - so they gave me a prescription to boost my Vitamin D). It's just so strange. I'm feeling good today and yesterday wasn't too terrible. Maybe I just overdid it the other day on my run.

I didn't think about it, but lately I've been getting to bed so late and getting up early. Thanks for reminding me how important sleep is. :angry: :smile:

Absolutely :)

Well stated :)

Way to go on figuring our the root of the problem. Congrats on the success you've already have had and on your future success. :)

I think alot of folks fail or regain their weight because they stop tracking and logging. I believe essentially that is the beginning of the fail and eventually folks may even stop working out. I think it is imperative that we log, and track our food till our life on this earth ends, but that is just my opinion.

You are so right -being happy is important. Best of luck in determining what will make you happy and achieving that goal. :)

Wow!! Great resolutions... The 5k - you can definitely do this and the tough mudder - yeah I imagine that would be fun.. I want to do one of those things, too. I've no doubt you can do it. With a commitment to healthy choices and exercise you'll get to the 135 lb. My suggestion just keep it healthy so that it is more…

What terrific goals you have. Without a doubt you can lose the additional 69 pounds. Just stay focused and determined and keep going after it. I believe # 2 will occur as you are reaching for goal # 1. Stick to it and you should be successful in your journey, but above all don't quit :). # 3 - I know what you mean. Yikes -…

Those are great resolutions. You can do both. I just finished my schooling and should be getting my degree shortly. I'm all about the health thing though and believe if you want it bad enough and work for it - it'll be. Good luck :)

Love it! You clearly will succeed. Best of luck :)

It is definitely attainable! You can do it - keep working & striving for success and it'll be yours. :)

Love it.... Well, unfortunately I was born with one of those.. Lol. Anyway - if that's your desire and you work hard for it YOU CAN and YOU WILL DO IT. Good luck :)

Wow! Triathlons - what a commendable challenge. I've NO doubt you can do it. Train hard and you'll see yourself succeed. Good luck :)

Oh - wow!! No doubt you can do that!! Just stay focused and keep your eye on the prize!! If your anything like me though your weight will fluctuate at times - so don't give up when that happens. Just keep pushing. Best of luck :)

You have quite alot of goals, but I believe each one is achievable. Try not to be hard on yourself and take it one day at a time. My suggestion would be to tackle them one at a time (though I realize you aren't asking for suggestions - so please take no offense by my suggestion). You can do this!! Best of luck and may 2014…

Congratulations on your weight loss. Without a doubt you can meet this goal. Best of luck :smile:

I don't know what your goal weight is, but based on the amount you've lost thus far - it is HIGHLY likely YOU WILL meet this goal weight. Keep going and you will succeed. :smile:

What a fabulous goal that you CAN do!!! Stay focused and keep going. You'll be the hit at the beach / pool. :)

I love you attitude - maintain or improve. It is totally achievable - especially when thats your only options. :) Best of luck with the wedding and your waist. Stay focused & you'll see the results. :smile:

You CAN do it!! Stay strong & keeping going. Enjoy the new spin class. :)

Wow - a 10K is phenomenal. I can't imagine doing much more than a 5K, but I have confidence you WILL meet your time goal on this. Love the strength / weight-lifting goals you have sent. Can't wait to hear about your successes (including the 20-25 pounds)!!

I KNOW you can do it!! Stick with it - and never quit. It sounds like you have some amazing goals and you will do it. Stay determined and strong mentally and the rest will follow. :)
