Bump! I would love to know what your trouble spots are and how you got them down. Belly and hips for me, and they are stubborn as hell. I'm doing circuits (with weights and body weight) and cardio right now and I can't wait to see progress!

You can really see the difference in your face. Awesome job!

Miso soup with tofu, kale, carrots, snow peas, shiitake mushrooms and chives <3

Great work!! You look beautiful.

Great job!

I will be playing Lost Odyssey later today. I'm about to beat it and hubby just finished Bioshock Infinite so that's next on the list.

I used a few different diet pills when I was in college, and didn't find them all that helpful. I would tend to just be even hungrier when I went off them, and some would keep me from sleeping at night. I do not suggest them, but I do really like green tea. It is somewhat controversial about its effectiveness (as are most…

I looked at one and considered it, but decided against it. It seems to me pretty much the same as a regular body fat scale, it just automatically syncs to your fitbit account (and probably therefore your MFP account.) This means that you're paying double the price of a similar product, in order to have the convenience of…

Wow your abs look great!!

Great way to start my day :)

I just broke out of a plateau that lasted months and I'm finally losing again. I had to eat at maintenance for a couple of months, then changed my goals back to losing 1/2 lb a week. I had been maintaining (plateaued) at the lower calories, so it took a couple of months of eating at maintenance to reset. I gave myself…

What a sexy figure! Congrats!!

Awesome!!

You weren't happy with losing inches instead of pounds? By doing that you were losing fat and gaining strength.

There is this great product called PB2 that you can get on amazon - it's peanut butter with the oils squeezed out. It comes in a powder, so you just add water or throw it in dressings, sauces, or smoothies. Something like 40 calories/2TBS. I think both peanut butter and bacon can be enjoyed, however, if you're mindful…

Thanks for posting, it was a great way to start my day! So encouraging to hear it's not a fast process...it's so easy to forget that when you're looking at these amazing before and afters, and then feel bad about your own results. Congratulations on a job well done!

That's exactly how Stage 1 worked for me. I ate at maintenance for about half of it, and at a small deficit for the other half. I just started Stage 2 and will be doing the HIIT. I'm trying to stay positive and hope for better results and more fat loss as I get further into the program. I would also like to know how others…

I just started stage 2 and my goals are to get in 3 workouts/week (might miss a day on vacation) and to drop my body fat to 24.0% (24.7% right now). I'm not totally sure how much you can drop in a month, but we'll just see what happens!

adorable!

I can definitely tell! Great work!

I use a jogging stroller for my 4 year old since there is no way I could get a good jog in with him on foot. He loves riding in it too. Jogging strollers are amazing...if I had it to do all over again it's probably the only stroller I ever would have owned. And anyone who gives you grief about using a stroller probably…

I am extremely headache prone, and had the same issue when I started running. You might try eating something small before you run. Otherwise you might consider giving your body a little time to get accustomed to the shock of running - you may feel like you're not overdoing it, but the headaches may continue unless you ease…

wow! 30 lbs did make a great difference! great job!

Aww :D

^Love this!! :D Also I read that this is when you feel the least like exercising but it's extremely helpful for reducing the water weight and just making you feel better.

Oh never mind it's the same thing lol.

Squats done! And I did yesterday's plank as well since I forgot yesterday. I've heard of burpees but what is a royal burpee?
