Great job. I think it's a huge deal. It's those differences, no matter how small you think they are, that keep us all going. :D

Such perfect timing for wearing a strapless dress next month. Thanks

Aww. I love it. Thanks for sharing and congrats!

Fantastic. No wonder people stare at you now. Great job!

Hey! I'm 4' 11 3/4", but I just tell people 5'. My starting weight after having my son was 162. My goal weight is 112. I agree that MFP doesn't account for short people. I've been asked why my diary is locked. For someone our size the calorie intake we need to maintain once we reach our goal is under 1200 a day. So far I'm…

@jam0525 I don't know the difference between a group and a fourm so it doesn't matter to me. For the month of February, I've been and will be doing the fitness circuit (jumping jacks, burpees, high knees, pushups, ect.) Last month was a little rough with both my kids' birthdays and two weeks of visitors. I'm a little…

I like this challenge! Name: Melanie Starting weight: 122 Goal weight: 110 Non Scale Goal: To look good in clothes without having to hide my belly. About yourself: I'm a wife and SAHM of two kids. My daughter will be 10 and my son will be 3 this month. I just turned 30 and made a big move from Detroit to New Hampshire over…

I feel the same way sometimes. I think that when we're overweight, the weight comes off first, then the next step is accepting our new bodies and loving ourselves again. We didn't put the weight on overnight, it's not going to come off that way and our negative feelings are the same. Take it one day at a time and be proud…

Ready to go. :)

I'm 4' 11 3/4". I have recently lost some motivation ever since going to the surgeon and realizing that my torn muscles are always going to make me look big in the belly and I can't afford to fix it. :( I snapped out of it and am going to get back on track. One day I can afford it and I'd like to be in the best shape I can…

No cool. It could have been said in a better way, but it shouldn't have been said at all. I get rid of friends that turn everything into a negative. You've already lost 15 lbs and are doing great. Don't let some *kitten* mess with your success.

Yay!. Good for you. I just had that the other day. It was one of my mini goals. I know we're really not supposed to depend on the BMI measurements or a video game, but it's really kept me motivated. Great job!

Great job. Have fun shopping!

My starting weight for October is 129.2. Guess I should weigh in with MFP too.

Anxious to start. My son takes a nap soon and thats my only workout time. :)

Hello everyone. My name is Melanie and I'm joining for October. I fell off the workout wagon after getting LASEK and then a 700 mile move. Since getting settled, I've lost what I gained and then some. I'm always up for a challenge and excited to start. I'm a SAHM of a 9 1/2 girl and 2 1/2 year old boy. My husband also…

I haven't measured anything specifically but I have already dropped a pant size. I was in a ten comfortably, but now I fit into my 8's that I haven't worn in 4 years. I can't say it's all 30DS because I still go to the gym...but it certainly helps. I'm not even done yet. I still have 10 days of level 3 to go. I hope you…

It's a workout video with Jillian Michaels.You just need some hand weights and a mat. (I don't recommend using 5lb because my arms kill me but I refuse to buy new ones.) You can get it at Target. Here's a link to amazon.…

I've done level one and am now on level two. It is a lot harder, but it does get easier. Today is my day 6 and I can keep up with Natalie pretty well...except for the cheer squats. You'll see. ;) I did level three before as well and it's a lot easier for me than level two. I've already seen changes in myself. I love…

That's amazing dedication. Great Job!

I love this. I try to think about how I will feel later, after it's eaten. It goes the same for working out. When I really don't want to, I know I'm just going to kick myself later and regret not doing it. My downfall is ice cream...if I want it I make sure I log everything and stop the toppings when I'm out of calories.

Welcome aboard! I am also trying to lose my baby weight, but my baby is 2 1/2. lol. Feel free to add me. :D

Feel free to add me. Great job so far. I think this might be the right place for you. Welcome aboard!

Great job. The dress is so pretty on you.

I'd like to join. My goal weight is 120 for Christmas and I'm 133.8 now. Only 128 days left. :)

If I get tired, I tell myself, "you're doing it" and it keeps me going. If it's a harder workout, I blast the fast music.

It's been so long since I've been at a good weight that I don't know what it is either. I just let people know I'm taking it one pound at a time and when I get to my goal, I'll know.

Did day 23 today. I'm glad I stuck with my 5 lb weights, because now the workouts are easy with them. I feel so weird punching without them on level one. I'm a little sad because my tummy hasn't went down. (The one place I really wanted to lose inches) Everywhere else has been doing well. I guess it's the price I pay for…

You've come to the right place. I love it here. You have great goals and we're all here to help you if you get stuck along the way. Welcome aboard!

That's amazing. You're doing great. If your having a bad day you should take a look at these pictures again and then feel AWESOME!
