I am a SAHM to 3. I do a lot of walking and bike riding. I also do some Fitness Blender videos on YouTube. I picked up some weights from a resale store to do light lifting at home as well.

This is the bread I eat now. I eat sandwiches for lunch a lot and always have the Sarah Lee 45cal bread on hand for it.

I always loved Fruity Pebbles and Corn Chex when I was a kid. My mom would sprinkle sugar on the Corn Chex though, so they ended up sweet too.

I always watch movies on my computer while I run/walk on the treadmill.

Congrats!!! Great job! It's a wonderful feeling reaching those goals!

I have my settings to lightly active and I am a stay at home mom. I am always moving around helping one of my kids or picking up things. I sit during the day, but I have to get up all the time for this or that. The setting seems to havebeen right for me. I think parents are more active then they think just taking care of…

I am on day 270 something. I login everyday and log my foods most days. Feel free to add me anyone.

I was an odd combo- nerd/honor roll student and a stoner.

When I first started I weighed myself daily, but now that I am losing weight slower I only weigh once every week or two.

Congrats on your weight loss! It is a combo of both. It looks a lot like my stomach, only mine is has a bit more fat. The wrinkles show there is loose skin, but in some areas there is a bit of fat. It is not gross either. Be proud of your skin, it shows how far you have come.

I gross between 1500 and 2000 a day. I walk every day for an hour to two depending on how much time I have. I find I stay on track better when I eat a bit more, I could never do the 1200 a day thing I would be a bear.

Yes, I find random glitter all the time, especially after washing my tween daughter's laundry or being within 5 ft of her clothing. LOL

Wonderful job!! You are looking great!! Best of luck for reaching your goals! :smile:

Great job!!!!

Tonight is roast slow cooked with onion and mushrooms, with mashed potatoes and some kind of veggie(not sure which yet).

I am currently a stay ay home mom, but I have also been the working mom. There are things I like about both. I do like being home with my kids, but really miss having adult conversations.

The district my mom works for always gives the kids a hot lunch no matter what the parent owes, but that created the huge debt problem. The parents that don't want to pay know their child will be fed the lunch anyway so why pay. The school does try to collect from the parents, but they will only take it so far when the…

While I don't agree with taking away a lunch they already have in hand, I can see the schools side as well. My mom works for a local school district and they have families that owe over a thousand dollars in lunches. Some of the families with the highest bill are upper middle class families that should be able to pay for…

I NET about the same calories everyday, and so far it has been pretty correct for me. It might be a pound or so off.

Right now my favorite is Honey Wheat. I love the light sweet taste it has.

I actually buy an outfit in a size smaller then I wear and keep it in site to motivate me to fit into it.

I'm over in Iowa. I am also a boredom (mindless eater) and emotional eater. They are hard habits to break, but they can be broken. You can add be if you want.

The best way I found to use this site and have it work is to be 100% honest in your logging. I lost 33lbs on my own before I joined MFP, but stalled out for almost a year with no loss. I joined this site and started tracking everything and the weight started to move again. I log everything I eat and drink from meals to…

I made this wonderful homemade cheesy bacon potato soup that I knew was bad, but it was worse then I thought. It was around 500 calories a cup.

Congratulations!! What an inspiration!

I adore my In-laws. They are very different from my parents, whom I get along with great, so it took some time to get use to the different behaviors. They are good people, they love their children and grandchildren and would do anything for them. The little things that use to get under my skin no longer do as I realized…

Yu can add me if you want. I was where you are, and improving everyday.

I only wear make-up if the husband and I are going out (which is like 4 times a year). The only thing I might put on once in a while is mascara. My profile pic is make-up free.

I had a lot to lose so no one really noticed until I lost about 40lbs. I noticed my clothes getting to big around 15lbs. Looking at myself in the mirror I didn't see a difference until 65lbs or so.

I have lost 68lbs in about 6 months, but I had a lot to lose and this last 20 or so is coming off much slower.
