Thank you for this. <3 I did get some really nice shoes over Christmas, but I still had the issue, which I honestly have felt may have been more due to how I run/jog. I am flat-footed, so I think that may be an issue as well.

Just read through all the comments. Thanks to many of you for the feedback, suggestions and best wishes. I think for now I will do my best to keep up with my food diary, then slowly make changes from there. Thankfully as it is warming up some, I can take my son outside more. He does enjoy walking down the road when myself…

He pretty much eats nothing but Atkins bars. It is ridiculous honestly. I am totally happy and all for him that he lost the weight and maintains it, but it just seems so damn unhealthy.

Thank you AliceDark. :) @Freemystery - They do know, my brother lost over 60 lbs and has maintained it, BUT, he can't eat 80% of what they cook in order to maintain it since he is on low carbs. (He did Atkins.) I do most of the shopping, and I try to buy healthier foods, BUT, it still doesn't seem to do any good. Both of…

I suppose I could. He never measures anything for the exception of like water. But I think that is what I do need to try to focus on for now, just getting into a great logging habit.

So hard....LOL I keep telling my mom we DON'T need it, but she continues to get it. :/ I rather not have it in the house at all, but she is just as addicted as I am. I swear, they put crack in that stuff....they have too...

True. Like I said, I beat myself up pretty bad. :/ I think that is a huge problem of mine, I try to take on more than I can handle. Also, I have tried to start logging food in general, but my dad makes a lot of food from scratch and I have no clue how to log some of the stuff he cooks. x_x Like his rice for example, he…

I was married, still am legally. Unfortunately it was to someone who felt the need to cheat on me physically and emotionally more than once. Marriage is not for me, and I am totally okay with that. So once my divorce is final, I don't plan to ever remarry. It's time for me to focus on ME and my son. It's something that is…

I am not, but I wanted to say keep at it and don't let some people be jerks to you. If it works for you, then I say do it! My brother lost over 60lbs on Atkins and is maintaining just fine and still sticking to it. Once you hit your goal, you can adjust your diet a little to maintain.

My first one, woot!! I just got my bike a week ago. I use to love riding my bike and I figured why not go back to it. But this time I have the joy of pulling my son along with me so he can enjoy the outdoors and ride as well! :) I am pulling a cart with my 2 year old son. (Who is like 35 lbs) MARCH 3/1 = 5.45 miles GOAL…

I am going to have to join the March Challenge! I just got myself a bike a few days ago and got a cart to pull my son (2yr) in! Even though I haven't ridden a bike in over 10 years, just in the past 2 days I have done 6.2 miles! My son loves it and I do too! :D

From 2011 to 2014...ghost bump be serious! O_O

That's awesome!! :) That's a goal I hope to do myself this year! :)

You made me do a double take, but it is mirrored. lol

That's AWESOME!!

Almond milk, usually unsweetened vanilla. I cannot stomach cow milk. Plus, almond milk is SO much better for you and healthier. Even if I could stomach cow milk, I would never go back to it. I love the way almond milk taste. <3

Hi! I am 26 and have close to 100 overall to lose. I lost about 16 lbs last year, looking to lose more this year. I not losing it as fast as some, but I am trying to make a life change so I can lose it and forever keep it off vs a change long enough to lose the weight. I am on everyday. :)

Thankfully nothing really other than female issues. Since I have been losing weight since last year, for the first time in my life, my monthly cycle is *almost* normal and actually MONTHLY! Not too thrilled about it, but meh, my weight was a factor for sure.

As of 9:00 AM, 12°F here in Mississippi.

Great job!! You look HAPPY and beautiful! You also have a beautiful family! Very inspiring! :)

That is amazing and you are very beautiful! Great job!!

I would love to join! :) Raiyen

I am working on a 5k right now. I have had shin splints in the past and I have them as well now. New shoes helped me a bit, but I found that taping my legs up BEFORE running has helped and rubbing them down with icy-hot afterwards helps. But it usually comes from doing too much too soon. I have had to slow down some to…

Mine where almost $44.99. (On sale; original price was $70.) I got the FILA Memory foam Running shoes. They are pretty awesome (and squishy!). :D

Here is mine...kinda lol. A more recent face picture is my profile picture.

That is AMAZING!

Feel free to add me. :) I am a mom of an almost 2 year old. I've lost the baby weight I had gained with him, but now I am trying to lose the weight I had BEFORE I got pregnant. That is what this year is about for me. :)

This gives me hope. I am actually bothered more by my arm fat than any other fat on my body other than my face. I hate how flabby my upper arms are. :(

Thanks and I hope we all can get back into everything and meet our goals. :)

Hi! :) Yeah, once I hit that plateau I just kinda lost what motivation I had; but not gaining any weight has made me realized I have made some progress. Though I was bad today and ate more pizza than I should have. :(
