**And thanks for all of the congratulatory remarks, it was definitely a struggle but yes I am happy to have reached my goal! :blushing:

Everyone, thanks for your input it is soooo helpful! And TheMommie, yes that is exactly how I feel and just hearing your story is helpful! YOU are also very inspirational, congrats on your WLJ!!!

Thanks, that is great advice (trying to keep up w/ posts, haha!). I will definitely think of a fitness goal to keep me motivated, and to help turn my attention from the number on the scale to a fitness goal! :flowerforyou:

And thanks ladies- you are so RIGHT about the number on the scale. I tend to get fixated on that more than anything else; I need to focus more on body fat comp. and inches!

Yes, that's true. I think I look pretty good, and I know I look relatively "slim". But I guess what I mean is that it's hard to find that place (mentally) where I am content. I have been on this hamster wheel of trying to lose weight for so long that it's hard to mentally get off it! Does that make sense? Oh, and then…

I absolutely feel this way after making poor food choices. Well, not really when I make poor food choices, but when I eat too much. I wake up feeling overly full and sluggish, and it definitely affects my ability to work out to my limits. I think it may be partly psychological but definitely also physiological- like maybe…

I also really like Truvia! Their baking blend (half truvia half sugar) is pretty good in baked goods as well!

I don't know why, but Hostess Honey Buns. The gross ones that are loaded with tons of preservatives. I could eat 2 in one sitting, easily, and probably gained about 10 pounds from Honey Buns alone during my 4th year of college. I still won't eat a honey bun to this day since losing weight because it just brings back too…

I do count crystal light and added powders as "water'. Just adding a powder to water doesn't negate the fact that you're hydrating yourself. But I try to use powders and flavored waters in moderation because of the calories, artificial sweeteners, and also because most tend to stain your teeth. Everything in…

Welcome! I just added you :)

I like to use some of the workout playlists from Songza!

That is an awesome story, I am so glad that you had the strength to say all of that to him! Way to go lady! And you DO look amazing!!!:glasses:

That breakfast looks amazing! I just had toast with butter/jam and an egg scramble. womp womp.

I like to make pancakes using 1 banana and 2 eggs (you can add egg whites for even more protein). Just mash up the banana really well, mix with eggs, and add cinnamon. Sometimes I'll add stevia. These are delicious and super filling!

bump!
