@angelhinson69 How's your sodium intake? I didn't log last week because I had way too much salt over 2 weekends, even though I was well below my calorie goal. That sodium can make the scale go the wrong way... and if you're working out regularly, especially building muscle, it can appear on the scale that you're gaining,…

Hello! I'm Erin, I'm 34, mommy of one 5-year-old little girl. Like what seems to be just about everyone else here, I have a desk job - editor and graphic artist. I've been overweight pretty much my whole life - my dad died when I was a kid, my mom turned to alcohol, and I learned to turn to food for comfort. I spent WASTED…

Starting weight: 239 Week #1: 238 (-1) Challenge goal: 209 Goals this week: - 1 gallon of water per day - at least two 20-minute workouts

Hello everyone... Started challenge at 239, goal is 209. Any of you I haven't friended yet, please feel free to add me!

It's Friday... check-in day! How are you all doing? I started this challenge at 239, I'm currently at 238, so 29 to go for me!

I just went through and requested to be friends with all of you! I think my major hurdle is always sticking to myself... I'm reaching out this time. Looking forward to succeeding this time!

I'm in... I'm usually reluctant to join challenges like this because I hate when I don't stick to it, but maybe this is the change I need to make. I lost a little over 30 pounds a few years ago, then slowly slipped into old habits and regained it back, plus some. I have just started logging again, I'm aiming for a gallon…

Day 7, rest day Day 8, 105 seconds up 5 from Day 6

Yuck, feel better... 85 second full static plank, up 10 from yesterday!

Static full plank, 45 seconds yesterday (since I forgot to log) and 60 seconds today.

I'm in! Send me an invite please!

Absolutely awesome, one of the biggest inspirations I've met on here!! Congrats girl, you look fabulous and you'll tackle that last 27 in no time!

I'm not really a girl.

Awesome!! You rock! Congratulations!!

I have a friend that has lost 73 pounds, and she looks FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC... but, in her own words, "...73 pounds less, and I still am the same insecure chubby girl in a smaller package. How the heck does that work?" For me, it's all hand-in-hand. If you don't change how you look at yourself, the way you look to everyone…

I have a 3-year-old little girl, sweet as can be and smart as a whip... but with Daddy's patience and temper, so I feel your pain. That "threenager" term couldn't be more right. lol I think the emotions are running high at this point, too, because she will sometimes cry about things that really don't warrant crying. (She…

2012 Toyota Camry - LOVE this car.

Wow! Awesome job!! Sucks that your ex is such a hard worker (lol) but what a great dad to suck it up and do what needed done - both with your health and (especially) your kids. It's hard for me to fathom being able to my kid(s)/family and not look back. They are lucky to have you, and vice versa, I'm sure! Congrats!!

Metallica - The Shortest Straw

Heck yeah! I found out I was going to be a mother ON Mother's Day. That was pretty cool. :love:

I have two pits, 5yo male (Bucky, had him since he was 4 weeks old) and 4yo female (Darla - got her at 8 weeks old). I'm admittedly a little partial to my male, since he is my baby, but he is smart as a whip. Catches on very fast. My female is smart, but listens only when she wants to (I see that the stubbornness has been…

I lost 30, gained back 20. I'm back down 18 now... suck it up, Buttercup. :wink: All you have to do is keep going. Don't let one "bad day" turn into 6 months of bad days. You're just fine! :smile:

WOW! Truly something to be proud of... congratulations, you look great!!
