Happy birthday! You look amazing girl! Keep up the good work :)

I love this. I always just ask myself, "How bad do you want it?" I've always liked "No matter how slow you go, you're still lapping the guy on the couch."

I vote pale rose. It makes the dress pop, rather than the shoes.

This^^ right here. That's why we have to keep going. :) I'm here for you, and we will conquer this together. <3

I am so overwhelmed! This is great.

Thank you! That was easier than I thought! LOL

Muddy Bears!!! The movie theater is the only place around here that I can find them. If I'm at the drive-in, I usually bring trail mix and iced tea or iced coffee because I have a hard time staying awake for all 3 films ha.

I wish I would have seen this a week ago! I ate a little more than I should at a birthday party and then struggled a lot with telling myself the scale didn't matter when I gained 5 lbs. This post has opened my eyes. I didn't really gain any fat. The scale was back down today. This makes SO MUCH SENSE.

Your 17lb difference is WAY more noticeable than mine! You go!!! Don't let a little disappointment set you back. You will make your goal, just maybe not as soon as you wanted.

Thank you for this!! Finally some advice that I can understand. :)

I started Zumba about 6 weeks ago. It was definitely awkward at first. Our instructor doesn't show you the moves first, we all just sort of jumped in. Coming from someone who has zero moves and is still sometimes off beat- keep at it. It will get easier, you will become less "stiff" and if you're anything like me, you'll…

So far you've been given some great advice but I feel I have to add changing up your route. Don't go the same route everyday or at the same times -if there is a predator, they like predictability on their end- and of course, always tell someone where you are and when you plan to return.

This is the single most inspiring thread I've ever read. I have barely started in this adventure and am gettting kind of emotional reading some of these. I can't wait to have my own to share!!

This makes so much sense. Thank you so much for posting this!

Chocolate!! I used to think it was all in my head but when I switched from the milk chocolate to the super dark stuff, I noticed it didn't take as much for me to start feeling better. I swear there is something in it. My husband learned years ago to always keep some in the freezer just in case. It literally helps my…

Yep! I do this too. Part of my problem is that I get on a "kick" where the food is all I crave/eat and then one day it's nauseating and it makes me gag. Thankfully it usually fixes itself if I take a break from the food for a while. I've done it with carrots, broccoli, apples, eggs and oatmeal the most often.

^^This is me! Where is the best place to start???

I don't usually reply to anything not "fitness related" but I felt I had to put my two cents in. A child is never an accident. Although, I was definitely surprised to find out I was pregnant the first time (using 2 forms of bc). There has to be a greater plan for something like that to happen.
