That's my main reason for losing weight. Yeah its great for the health benefits and all that, but lets face it, I look frikkin awesome in clothes and I don't care how selfish that is!! You do what you want!!

love the outfit! looking goooood!

Bernadette!!

Seriously??? I will try that website thanks. Maybe a visit to a dept store too!!

Gorgeous girl and seriously jealous of that hair!! I want a perm now!

If im being taken out for dinner. I so rarely do it, maybe once a month, if that. So when I do, I order what I like. OF course I am still aware of what I am eating ALWAYS stop when Im full - or leave enough room for dessert!!

I totally get why you are upset. Mums have a huge influence on us and no matter what age we are, we still value their opinion. However, in saying that, looking at your old pics, i think you look fantastic now. much more tones and defined and you should be proud of your accomplishments

That's great advice guys, thanks a lot! After looking at the youtube video, I was definitely doing it wrong. I will do it right next time and look into buys a wrap aswell. Awesome! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

I honestly never have trouble eating. I eat everything and anything and have to make a conscious effort to stop!

Everyone I know gathered round the TV to watch the Christmas Special of Doctor Who

Whenever I do my weight workout, I do jump rope to get my heart rate up and some cardio in. I wear a heart rate monitor and for 11 minutes of jump rope (50 seconds work, 20 seconds rest) I burn 126 calories. Everyone is different but I dont think thats a "fact"

Im very new to instagram and I post everything and anything that even slightly interests me (mainly clothes and fitness stuff) my name is jenod81

bump to read later

I have to wear tena lady pads when I skip with a jump rope :blushing:

Ive lost 60lbs and never set foot inside a gym. I went out and ran or cycled so yes you can lose weight. However, now that I have lost weight, I am trying to build muscle so a gym is needed for weights

my jaw actually dropped looking at those pictures! What an amazing difference! *lost for words* Well done!

i fancied the local barman and i had a feeling he liked me too. He gave me anf my roomate a lift home one night and she stole a soft toy from his car cause she thought it was funny. I took a picture of it and printed it out with a ransom note. Either £1000 or a date. I got a date and we are now married

I don't have a lot of friends anyway. the ones I do have I try to spend time with as much as possible but im lucky where most of them have children too and their time is precious too. I see a couple of friends once a week, and its just a cup of coffee and maybe a biscuit and the others I see maybe once a month or less and…

I started exercising last January and I said I would commit myself to 3 days a week. I started the couch to 5k programme which was 20-30 minutes of exercising. I found that running was the exercise for me and did it more than 3 times. You have to find what you enjoy doing. I stuck with it and its now at the point where I…

what is it?

I love to get out of my head for an hour where all I have to think about is my breathing and avoid traffic!

yeah I know its disheartening for only 2lbs but thats really a great loss for a week - just remember 2lbs over 5 weeks is 10lbs!! It all adds up, and quicker than you think! Ive lost 60lbs since last January, 39lbs of those since I joined MFP. I log everything and I exercise like a ninja! (hence the name). Its quite…

I had tender breasts and I remember that my hair dye didnt take to my hair!

I use the TDEE method on iifym.com and it tells me to eat 1900 calories a day, but i exercise 6-7 days a week. I find that a very comfortable number! When I started MFP, it gave me 1200 calories and I think I lasted 2 weeks before I got really crabby!!

Yes most people arent being intentionally mean, they just dont like change. I have had constant "dont lose any more weight" or "you can stop now" and I just sit there thinking, thats sweet but I didnt ask your permission.

I went out and ran on Christmas Day! That in itself is a major achievement to me so I took a selfie mid-run!

I ran a 4 mile run this morning using my new Garmin Forerunner 10!! And now I am sitting after eating a measured out meal. The meal was measured out but I still went waaaaaay over! and I dont feel at all guilty because its christmas day and I ran!!

I will be logging everything - a good point is that i am cooking on christmas day so i know how to measure out my own portion. The sweeties, I will have a problem with. But I log no matter how bad it is!

Last Christmas i weight 220lbs and was obese. I am currently 167lbs and healthy BMI (just!) so I am definitely where I want to be, just now. To be honest, I will be happy to maintain throughout the holidays and get back on track in the new year.

This^^^ If you dont want to walk. Lift.
