I dont even cook mine. Just poor the sauce on top

that was good info to know. i just took my first spin class Monday & i understand your pain. My legs were so wobbly after class. My but didn't start hurting til tuesday but by Wednesday i was fine. I'm waiting until Saturday to do another one. i did like& hate it at the same time :happy: :mad:

You look great!!! Wonderful job! not to take away from your moment but what in the world is going on w/the little boy passed out in the floor in the second picture :laugh:

Just try not to weigh yourself the days before or during. That way when you jump on that scale after......you should have a nice drop in numbers b/c it's been well over a week since you weighed yourself.

I normally don't wear any when i workout either. The compression pants do good keeping everything in place. Now if i have on some thongs I'll leave them on but any other cut of underwear tend to ride up as I workout making things uncomfortable. Long as your pants aren't see thru i think you'll be just fine going w/out.

Thanks- it's very rare that i meet a Melinda. I meet more Melondy's w/their name spelled like mine

Thanks!

Thanks so much for all the compliments everybody! i've been in a great mood the past couple days- all from trying on a medium sized dress & having it fit! i can't wait til i lose the next 10-15lbs- i don't know what i'm gonna do :smile:

bumping to try once i get home & setup a photobucket account

:laugh: You looking to get raped????? too funny

$20/month Victory Lady Fitness. it's an all womens gym but they have everything the bigger names have. well mostly everything, there's no pool or spin bikes but all the important stuff is there. The classes are great & you get to meet w/a personal trainer every month for free.

lol- not Gremlins rules! i love it

ummmmm- peanut butter & honey! i love it!! Especially with a banana

i have a Ft4- bright green. Alot of ladies at my gym have the pink one, i wanted to stand out

so far it's only been juice. Every once in awhile i'll have a gold peak green tea, or V8 fusion but all the minute cherry limeade & kool aid i used to drink is over.

I agree 100%. You'll be miserable sitting there trying not to eat while watching what everybody else is eating. Go head & get it in (w/in moderation) don't eat like you did last year of course. & if you find you've ate waaaayyy too much on Thanksgving &/or Christmas just remember to get a good workout in that next day-…

i follow him on instagram. haven't had a chance to try any of the recipes but they all look tasty. he even puts some drink recipes on there too

I have a Polar FT4. got it off ebay for $60. i tried bidding on several for less price but the bids eventually got up to amounts higher than the $60 i paid. I love it.

Just dont waste your time sharing anymore pics w/this coworker/sometimey friend. Just wait for her or your other coworkers to start complimenting you on your weight loss. that way it won't appear that you're fishing for compliments. Great job on your weight loss, you look happy & that truly is all that matters

take all that hurt & anger from the situation & use it in your workout! Somebody will always talk about you- even when you lose the weight somebody will have something negative to say about how or why you did it. You can't let what somebody might say keep you from leaving the house or continuing your journey to lose…

Major improvement! keep up the good work! You'll be looking Fresh at Forty!

Me too. I've never heard of it. i've heard of black girls run

RVA (Richmond, VA- river city)

i'm thinking maybe she went out of her way ( or continued) to do those things to help lose the weight. It's easier to stick w/it when you're doing something you actually like. Great job on staying focused during your weight loss journey at such a young age.

I'm dying over here at this one. :laugh:

lol! i agree

Oh wow! 100+ lbs in 6 months. Truly amazing. good luck w/the rest of your weight loss/life journey

i think the same thing. Man they out here getting it- i can't wait til i'm out running like that

awwwwww.....that is so sweet. i hope you guys continue to workout together. :flowerforyou:

my plan is start couch to 5k next month too. idk if i'll be able to start oct 1st but i'll try
