I live in Phoenix, we wear shorts and tanks/t's all year round. Well, unless, like last winter, we get that one week in January where it's 30*. lol

Queen of the Damned! ♥

6 cats. 4 of them are rescues. Shadow and Phantom we got from a friend of my daughters, when they were babies. They are twin tuxedo's. Then we rescued Shade from the alley. he looked just like our boys and came walking right up to us, so we fed him and took him in. Then we rescued 2 kittens from the alley, their mama was…

I dated a guy for two years that I met online. I didn't have a webcam and he wouldn't hook his up. We fell madly in love. I came to Arizona to meet him, after 2 years. I never left. We moved in together and got married a year later. He was exactly who he said he was. We were honest with each other from day one. I admit I…

Love this! Thank you! I like to tease my husband about trying to sabotage me, but in the end I know it's my decision whether or not to indulge or to say the hell with it and fit it into my count for the day. Besides, hubby usually tries really hard to find me a healthier alternative.

Mine is so my gut doesn't hang over. So my husband doesn't have to move my fat rolls when we get intimate. (ugh.. )

I'm set at sedentary. I was over 300 lbs when I started and rarely moved off the couch or bed. I have chronic pain and other issues and I used them as an excuse not to do anything. I sat on my *kitten* and played video games, watched tv and ate junk food ALL day. I'm married with teenage kids, so they did all the…

You look great! Awesome job! I'm in the same situation you were in before. I'm 32 lbs down and feeling better and better everyday. I'm a recovering addict and blamed my health issues on my past meth use. Of course, that is SOME of it, but weighing over 300 lbs was the even bigger issue.

My 15 year old son plays it too. I don't get it either. And I play video games. I know several adults who play it. I asked my son to help me explain to you what is so great about this game. And he tells me he can't even explain it. It's just imagination and creativity. I know he has much more fun when he plays online in…

Big hairy manly men! I find my husband sexy as all hell. Bald head, goatee and hairy like a viking. lol

I eat anything and everything I want. In moderation. I've been at this for just over 2 months and I'm down 30 lbs. It's the eating anything I want that keeps me going. I don't have cravings from denying myself things, so I don't binge. I control my portions, I exercise, I lose weight.

Honey, when I started I weighed 320 lbs. I'm 40 years old and have all sorts of ailments and chronic pain. Start slow. At 300 lbs, you would be surprised at how easy it is to burn calories. I started with 10 minutes yoga stretches and short walks. hasfit.com has very simple, easy to follow, low impact exercise video plan.…

You'd be surprised at what can burn calories, especially in very heavy people. I weighed 320 lbs when I started. And I was very nearly bedridden. I started very very slowly. I started with very easy, simple yoga videos from youtube. I walked. And started gardening. The gardening is what's been the constant for me. I go out…

August 12 2006 is the first day I woke up and didn't do any meth. It's the day I left my hometown and never looked back.

No, I don't judge people by the clothes they wear. People should wear whatever is comfortable for them.

Instead of soda, I drink sparkling water. Instead of starchy high cal, high sodium boxed side dishes, I eat extra veggies. Instead of ice cream, cakes and cookies, I eat Skinny Cow. Oh and instead of lunch meats I grill extra chicken breasts and make chicken salads.

Youtube is my best friend! lol.. I have found lots of yoga and low impact aerobics on there. Dancing, ab workouts, martial arts, you name it, youtube has it. Yes, even Zumba! I also found hasfit.com (via youtube. lol) which I absolutely LOVE! You don't have to spend dime. Just clear some space in your living room and get…

My kids are 20, 15 and 13, When my 20 year old was 2, she was learning the names of body parts, and she would tell me "I see your nose/eyes/lips/etc. Mommy" One day we were in the grocery store, she was in the cart and she very loudly exclaimed "I see your boobies Mommy!"

Get out and take your son for walks! The fresh air, sunshine and exercise will make you feel worlds better. I know how depressed being stuck in the house all day can make a person. I've been there. Now I get outside at least twice a day. I started a garden and I walk when it's not too horribly hot. I live in Phoenix, so…

I love the Silk dark chocolate almond milk. And Both Silk and Blue Diamond Vanilla. Like Sunshinestate, I can't drink it in coffee, it just isn't creamy enough and doesn't taste good at all.

I was feeling the same way before I started on my journey to better health. I found that having something to tend to and take care of everyday helps.I started a small garden, so I have to go outside and water and rake pine needles and pull weeds and dead leaves. I find the fresh air and the results of my work lighten my…

Try taking baby steps. First off, don't think of it as a diet. It's healthier eating, a lifestyle change, anything but a diet. Then change slowly. Start by say, adding more veggies, then decrease the amounts of starchy sides, just as an example. Take a 10 minute walk in the evenings, increase it by 5 minutes every couple…

My photo didn't work. :( Anyway, my list: Jason Momoa Alexander Skarsgard (True Blood...Yum, Norseman!) And this one is odd, but I am a cat lady, Jackson Galaxy from My Cat From Hell on Animal Planet. lol

Get the kids to help. When the little one is down, get the older 2 to dance or run and play with them. I've also seen where, some people use their toddler as a weight. Lay on the floor and lift him/her. They'll get the giggles and you'll get a workout! Get a wagon and take them for a ride in it. Take them to the park and…

Momoa! ♥

My husband is amazing! He tries really hard to keep me in mind, even when he impulse buys. (He works in grocery, so he impulse buys a lot) Every night he asks if I stayed in my goals and if I worked out. He celebrates my little victories with me. He reads the scale for me when I weigh in because it's not a digital and I…

Not my perfect man. My perfect man is 30, middle class, and tall, with Mr Clean head and a goofy sense of humor. (Yes, I describe my husband. lol) Oh and I forgot nerdy. lol

They just released the names. Some of them were so very young. Such a horrible tragedy. Heroes every one.

Can I still jump on the boat? lol Feel free to add me. Name: Tasha Age: 40 Height 5' 5.5" Starting weight: 320 Current weight: 295 goal weight: 225 (for now, I'll be changing that when I reach it. lol)
