Incredible job! You look amazing, I bet your daughter is so proud of you!

Pretty, but unsure

Born in the US, blood is a mix of German, Norwegian, and Mexican.

@Ellieover: Has the same name as me! (Don't see it often in girls over 10) :bigsmile: @walkingforwar: happy and outgoing

Thanks :-) INSPIRATIONAL!!! WOW 130 down?? AMAZING

I heard if you cut out chocolate you will turn in to a zombie :sad: :noway: True story. Not taking ANY chances.

Thanks :smile: Is chilly!!! Hate long sleeve weather :noway:

Is shy :blushing:

Those meals and bars are ok once in awhile, but I ALWAYS gained when I went overboard on the bars. Also, I have issues, no matter the diet, when I have too much artificial sweeteners. I shall when I drink crystal light on a regular basis.

After 2 yrs and a 10 month plateau on Atkins phase 1, I VERY slowly increased carbs. 20 up to 30. 30 to 40. It took a lot of mental effort to add carbs back in. I still only consume, on average, 50-75 carbs per day. I guess what I learned the most from atkins was that I needed to eat better. I still don't eat breads and…

My digital was actually more accurate than my analog. I switched to a Fitbit Aria and LOVE IT.

They have the circuit training with resistance weights.......unless it's changed since the last time I was a member.....

Thanks guys. I have gone back and forth on the New Rules of Lifting books....... I will just get it and start there!

ME TOO!!!! So addicted to it, I can't go more than 2 days without an episode :love: :love: Also hooked on: Dexter Sister Wives

I don't have anyone for help with establishing strength goals. Time, money, and location restrains make it difficult to get to an actual gym as well. We have a gym that does crossfit, but it's $100/month. :-(

Damn.......forgot that WAS my mantra at one point. :ohwell: Ya know......it gets to a point where you forget it all and lose your common sense along with it. That or I'm going senile.

Remember: it wasn't 1 bad day, or even 2 days that got you to the point you are at now. So 1 or 2 bad days will not undo all your hard work. Just pick up and go on.

Just when you think you got it all figured out........you've got to change things up again. Don't be afraid to try new things.

Btw- I'm actually in Goddard, not wichita. But ya know........it's all the same.

I ❤️ you lol. You are totally right. After 3 yrs my mindset is a bit skewed. Thank you.

YAAAAAY ANOTHER SHOCKER!!!!! ???????????????????????????????????? hello! Sorry. Not often I see a wichitan on here......... You make #2. Haha! Good luck! ***turns and runs to add new friend!**

Yea my best time for a 5k was 10:45 min per mile. I'm slow. Asthma meds helped a lot due to not being diagnosed as a child. But hey didn't help a ton..

Thank you! I actually have tights and a winter running top, just don't have mitten and a face mask. What do you do lifting wise?? You have lost a lot, congrats to you!! I'm going to go add you now......

Thanks! Good luck to you!! How tall are you?

I do want to add- I've read a lot on body dysmorphia over the years and I wonder just how long it will take my brain to catch up with my body. I know it takes awhile, and I thought with slower weight loss maybe my brain would adjust a bit easier. I'm thinkin not.

I like her, wish my knees could handle her workouts!! She's a killer. I will have to look in to that book!!

I have always hated exercise.........apparently that's how I got here in the first place, lol. I find it hard to find something I enjoy and stick with it.......

Thank you :smile:

Thank you. Quick question- how do I know what my body's set point is at??
