Ha :smile: good to know. Thank you!

I went down a shirt size and a pant size recently and I have found some really great deals from shopping Old Navy online. I hope to lose a couple more sizes so I figure I will go cheap until I hit my goal and then maybe splurge on a couple of nice things in that size!

I have this thought often! I have a 2 year old and a 9 month old and I always thought I would have more eventually, but now that I am losing weight and starting to feel the best I have in years, I am actually doubting whether I will have more or not. I had rough pregnancies with both and it was so hard on my body, but to…

Really awesome ideas here! Thank you so much! I am really glad I posted. :smile:

Great advice! Thank you!

Good to hear from someone in a similar situation! I wish I had started all of this a long time ago, but I think since I haven't been doing it all that long I am worried I will just go right back down the rabbit hole with all of the freedom! I usually work out from home so I am hoping to also do a lot of walking while we…

Very true! I guess I need to stop thinking so much about how the trip will go and focus more on getting back to what I have been doing when I get home. Thank you!

I know you're right. I guess I just need to chill out!

5'4" SW: 168 CW: 149 GW: I hope to maintain between 125-130.

If it fits then go for it! I have a problem with only having 1 or 2 and I also tend to want to eat everything after having some drinks so I try and stay away from it unless it's a special occasion.

I've never been able to stay motivated enough to go to the gym regularly. I do workouts from home now and I just start them soon after I get up in the morning so I don't have much time to think about it.

My husband and I work out from home every morning soon after our kids wake us up so I think we will just do our usual routine for the day!

I used to make shakes with unsweetened vanilla almond milk, ice, and just whatever mix of fruits/greens I had around the house. I don't do shakes much anymore, but I have 2 little ones and stay pretty busy so I am always looking for quick things to eat, too. Basically I will spend some time prepping a few things once every…

Amazing! Great job!

I used to be all about the holiday themed creamers (Pumpkin Spice, Gingerbread Latte, etc.), then moved to unsweetened vanilla almond milk and cinnamon when I started here, and now I am just drinking black coffee with a sprinkle of cinnamon. I decided that I prefer to use my calories elsewhere. :smile:

Water, black coffee with cinnamon, and on special occasions I might have some red wine or a good beer.

Nice job! Keep going! :smile:

I eat it often when I am trying to lose and not so much otherwise. I do like it with tabasco sauce and I love how easy and nutritious it is, but I don't think I would choose to eat it just because.

Always looking for more active friends!

I am 30 and have lost 17lbs so far with 20ish more to go! I am relatively active here, I will add you! :smile:

Congrats on your new little one! I have an almost 9 month old son and a 2 year old daughter. I was on strict bed rest with both babies and it is really what I contribute to my weight gain. I didn't get it under control in between the two, unfortunately. I've been working on a lifestyle change for myself and my family and I…

My first NSV! I just purchased pants one size SMALLER! I have only purchased bigger and bigger sizes for the last 5-6 years as I have continued gaining weight after have 2 babies and I truly thought I would never buy a smaller size again. I was stuffing myself into my skinny jeans at the start of all of this and now I just…

Hi! I just turned 30 last week and I really want to get myself back as I head into my 30s! I am married and have 2 babies and I feel like the last 7 years or so I have just lived for everyone else. I am ready to get me back and be strong and healthy for myself and my family. :) Would love to have new friends to follow!

I honestly had to really force it in the beginning, but once I started seeing results and feeling better, the motivation came! I am fortunate enough that both of my kids nap at the same time in the afternoon so I usually do a workout then and sometimes I will do it when I first get up in the morning while my husband is…

What a sweet little squish!

Wow you must stay busy! :)

Oh man! This is seriously the best thread! I wish I had taken some before pics, but I hated what I looked like so much that I couldn't even bring myself to do it. I am 5'4 and started at 168 and am currently 153. My first goal is to 130 so I have a ways to go. I guess it's not too late to do some progress photos. :)

I live very close to several amazing breweries. To say I love beer would be an understatement. I also love a good glass of red wine. For me, I'd rather not have them at all then to substitute something that I am just *ok* with. On days that I anticipate having some drinks, I just work out harder or sometimes cut back on…

I'd love to have some mommy friends on here! My daughter just turned one last weekend and I'm still working on losing this dang baby weight. Ugh. Feel free to add me!

Anyone out there like me?! 28 years old 5'4" SW: 164 CW: 156 GW: 125-130 I'm a work at home mom of a little girl who will be 1 in two days! I've been trying things for the whole year since I've had her to lose weight, but am finally really serious about it, doing it the right way, and starting to see results. My husband is…
