Thank you so much! Mostly focused on building muscle / reducing fat. The number on the scale isn't as much the end-game at this point. I work out three times a week with cardio / weight training for 1 hour per session (used to be Orangetheory until Covid). I use MFP to track my meals and try to focus on eating more protein…

Not done yet but I’ve lost over 40 pounds and feel great!!
-
Me, me, me! In that same boat! Lost almost 30 pounds and gained ALL back! Going to start over, but I'm already on the path - lost two pounds so far! :)

I've done a marathon [although it would truly be a stretch to say "run"] and two half marathons. My first half marathon time was 3:15 - and I was pretty miserable but finished. My second was 3:03 and I was the cheerleader for a group of first time runners, so I know I could have had a better time. In general, I run about…

Awesome! Thanks for the link! I'll definitely check it out.

Feel free to add me! :)

Woohoo - Thanks ladies!! I'm excited to lose weight and fit into all the beautiful clothes from the FIRST time I lost weight D:
-
Great job!! You look aweesome!

I'm 5'8 and 171 pounds - I'm trying to get back down to 155, i love the way I feel there! Add me :)
-
I'm 5'9 at 158 and I know i could be skinnier, but i would look extremely thin. It depends on what your weight consists of, but I think a lot of mine is muscle, so weighing much less wouldn't look too flattering on me. Just focus on getting to a weight that you're comfortable with, and decide as you go. I think I was…

I really like the thai and bbq salads - get the dressings on the side (dip your fork) and they're really great! Also, I like the broccoli and cheddar soup - So so good! If you're in the mood for a sandwich - the cafe sandwiches are a great bet - just ask for no mayo :) Usually can get out of there in under 500 calories!…

@riverphx - cute couple :)

Yay! I love seeing Tall Ladies' before and afters! You look amazing!

I cheer :) Add me!

I live in Brandon and go to the YouFit gym by the Brandon mall - I plan on starting to run down on Bayshore and such :)

I generally try to do about 45 minutes of cardio and mix in weights with an upper body day and a lower body day. I'm not lifting super heavy, just enough to be a challenge after doing a couple sets of the weight I'm using. On days that I can't make it to the gym, I try to pop in a Jillian Michael's DVD (ripped in 30) or…

Sorry about my whiney post earlier, but I posted this a week ago and was hoping for a response and got nothing! After all that work I was so disappointed, but now I feel better :) And it's reinspiring me to get back to my A-Game. I have been a bit lacking this week. As for an earlier question, I started getting fit around…

It makes me sad that no one comments on my journey. I guess it's just not that inspiring.
-
No kids yet! But I can definitely understand you're struggling! It's so hard to feel like enough is enough! I feel pretty great about my body, but I still want to venture into the 150's instead of the 160's. I'm starting to recognize that going lower than that wouldn't look very "healthy" on me. Thanks for the sweet…
-
Thanks! I'm super nervous about it, but I made up a plan and hopefully it works out :)
-
Also, I'm 5'9!
-
Awesome job :)
-
Very inspiring story! You look awesome!
-
Awesome! Can't wait to get that far :)
-
Too cute :) Congrats!
-
It took me about 10 pounds to see a difference and my friends/family 17 pounds!

Amazing!!!! :)

Hi Paris! I remember how hard it was starting out, it can be daunting and frustrating - especially when your body isn't used to the new "plan". Okay, so I have a few questions beyond this - what is your caloric goal? How much are you trying to lose a week? Depending on your answers - there could be a variety of reasons why…

Lift weights! Seriously. In the beginning of my healthy lifestyle change, I was doing lots of cardio (Read: elliptical) and eating less. I lost weight but I still looked flabby and felt flabby and awful, basically. Fast forward - I've been lifting weights, incorporating cardio into my weight training (think 30 day shred or…
