AMAZING! You should be so proud of yourself!

Im 16 weeks pregnant tomorrow and this weight gain thing is TERRIFYING me! This is my third pregnancy and I gained 45 with the first, and 40 with the second. Aiming to gain between 25-30, but as I've already gained 4-5, depending on the day, that gives me only a pound to gain in in the next 24 weeks. I was 195 when I had…

Awesome! Good for you! :0)

good for you! Its tough trying to lose weight in high school! I did, but I also had a friend who took it too far. I think its very mature of you to recognize that you have lost maybe a little too much and are able to admit that. I noticed you have a needle disposable container on your dresser. Are you diabetic as well?

Amazing! Thanks for that bit of inspiration. I need to remember to eat clean to shed my mommy tummy.

Everytime I read one of your posts, I am so inspired! You are such an inspiration to us moms trying to lose that baby belly.

Beautiful! what an example you are to other youth! Way to go!

Are you kidding me? AMAZING!!! Your starting was the same as mine, although I have been stuck in the 140's for a year now and can't get out!

AMAZING!!!

Amazing! I need to try eating more, but I am terrified to do it! Nice to see someone who was successful eating healthy, and not starving!

OH MY GOODNESS! I want your stomach! Thanks for showing us moms out there that your CAN achieve a nice flat and toned tummy!

Amazing!!! You look so much happier! I weigh 20 pounds less than you and your stomach looks TEN times better than mine. Keep it up and you'll reach your goal in no time!

Thanks everyone for all your support and encouragement!

My diet was not restricted. I cut back on portions, tried to eat more protein by using whey protein powder, and TRYING to eat less processed carbs. I cut out pasta and rice until literally this past month and would use cauliflower instead. When I say I could have done better, it was in my diet. But I can't live in the…

This article from Chalene Johnson of Chalean Extreme and Turbofire really helped me understand why its important to eat. (Just reminded me again too!) https://www.turbokick.com/wblog/?p=136

Thanks everyone! Its been a long hard struggle!

Hahaha! Thats why I am smiling in the last picture because when I turned, my husband said, where did you go? I cant see you?

Thanks! Im 5'7.

Awesome! You look fabulous!

AMAZING!!! You two should be SO proud of yourselves!

Congratulations on a year!! Mine is on Friday and I like you have not missed a day of logging. I havent had the results like you, but I am proud of what I have accomplished! Keep it up!

Essentially, you want to consume as little sodium as possible. Everything has sodium in it but you want to aim for less than 2500mg a day. (you can edit your food diary to show this so you can keep track.) Too much sodium can cause your body to retain water and to feel bloated and gross. Start by cutting back on the the…

Well, my kids are 5 and 2 and a half, but its taken me almost that 2 and a half years to lose 53 pounds. I didn't really get serious until January of this year. You just have to take it one day at a time and maybe simple swaps like caluiflower instead of pasta or rice and less processed foods. I ate chicken and either…

Amazing! You look simply fantastic!

My sister bought it but hasn't completed it yet. She said it was pretty intense!

Awesome! You look fabulous and I can't believe you're 35!!

Me! I JUST started running last week!

You look amazing! Proof that you can lose and maintain at any age! Keep up the good work!

Good job!

Thanks for the support guys. Its reassuring to hear others are/have gone through this and that I am not alone! Im going to re-evaluate the quality of my food and try to make better choices and keep going on!
