wow so many small framed folks! i have a large frame and im currently at my goal weight of 134. I dont think i can go any lower without it being unhealthy, im already pretty ribby as is.

lookin awesomeee! :D

the only person i know who has had gastric bypass died recently of a bacterial infection from the surgery spreading to her blood. it was two months after her surgery. it was very sad to see something that made her so happy turn out so badly. not saying this will definitely happen, but it is something to think about. there…

im 12 pounds lighter :D i dont look like my picture anymore either, im back to looking like my high school I.D. cards

i eat chocolate every day be it a little bit of cookie dough or some dark chocolate or some ice cream and recently posted my results here. i just dont let it exceed my calorie goal! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/347864-i-have-abs-d-before-and-after

lol :) after i reached my goal weight i bought myself a full length mirror so i could see my results! (my bathroom has a tiny mirror so i could only see my face loose weight :/

OMG thats awesome!! this just happened to me too, i didnt even realize it untill i was buying new pants for winter, now i look at my old jeans and notice all the places they were sagging and wonder how i didnt see it XD

hahahahhahahahahhahahaa!!! :D i was going to a halloween pool party XD

mhmmmm i still cant do them as fast or with as many reps as she does, i tend to do closer to 3/4ths or 1/2 what she does, and it still makes a huge difference, when i started out i didnt use any equipment because i couldnt, and i needed to build enough strength to lift me first. but she has alot of workouts without any…

hahahhaaa no but im sure my mom is glad im not making this mess in her house anymore! :D

bodyrock.tv! i modified it a bit added some short 2 mile runs and added v ups to her workouts if they didnt have any in them that day. i started last year actually, but i didnt really see it untill i got my weight down far enough with MFP diet. had to get the layer of fat off, then i could finally see all of the muscle i…

i still eat lots of sugar XD i try and replace it with 80% dark chocolate and fruit much as possible, but i still eat like half a cup of ice cream or some cookies every so often, i never let it take me over my calorie limit though.im not sure my diet would work for everyone, im pretty laid back about what goes into it, i…

i run 2 miles three days a week and do three workouts from http://www.bodyrock.tv/ per week. i like them because you can do them without very much equipment, i generally do them with a 25 pound backpack full of books or a medicine ball if i have time to go to the gym. i usually try to do 40 v-ups with the bodyrock workout…

hahahhahaha yeah XD im gonna start working on that

thanks XD im worried about maintenace myself, lol and i did crunches for a long time untill i discovered bodyrock.tv, zuzana is my inspiration! but yeah her workouts involve lots of v ups, planks, burpees, reptiles, and weighted squats and lunges. theyre pretty intense and i still cant keep up with her, but i try really…

19 almost 20 :D going to nursing school, lost like 20 pounds about i'm on maintenance now 5'6'' 160-155 down to 135! :D i would love to cheer you on!

lol okay ignore the stupid cowboy hat, i was going to a halloween pool party. but yeah! heres my progress from 160ish 155ish to 135

woooow :D im 5'6'' and ive never even dreamed of wearing a size four, youve done amazing!!

i saw myself in a full length mirror for the first time in a few months and didnt even recognize my own butt XD

"growing" out of every last one of my pairs of pants in four months, and having to wear my boyfreind's mens XL pj bottoms (which were loose on him) untill they got too tight. i didnt want to know what my size was so i just bought new mens xl pjs at wall mart with draw strings and didnt tie them. Then i had a job interview.…

hehehehee :D i had a similar NSV a week ago CONGRATS!

Hi! im currently a junior in nursing school and i thought i could help a bit, dont worry so much about carbs, you are probably retaining water and craving cheese and dairy because you are protein deficient. cheese and dairy contain protein and it is possible to meet your daily protein requirement with cheese alone, though…

you look beautiful!!!

ive recently gone on maintenance calories and am having a similar problem, its like adding a whole extra meal for me, and i was perfectly full on the old number of calories so it feels sortof wrong. i always want to throw up when i eat all the way to my calorie goal now. i think my stomach has shrunk. i have gained one…

wooow! you look better at 141 than i do at 135! awesome job!

you look awesome! so inspiring :D keep up the good work!

heheheee i reached my goal a couple weeks ago, and i always have some sort of treat hanging around the house. i have the problem where if i go the whole day without planning my food ill often have around 200 calories left over, so i just have some chocolate or some cookie dough XD its certainly not the best way to get your…

yeah i had that problem actually, i was 26% body fat or something like that, but if you just start doing some calisthenics on days when you dont run, and before your runs, you should start seeing that shift towards lower numbers im 19% body fat, i measure it with a handheld bio electric alayser i think its called OMRON HBF…

looking at your picture i would guess its because youve gained a bit of muscle, you should test your bodyfat! i felt alot better about staying at 135 when i tested mine.

im 5'6'' and i just made my goal :D it was 135 and with the amount of muscle ive got its as low as i will go without getting so skinny its uncomfortable. its slightly uncomfortable to sit for long periods of time because my butt is so much less fatty than it was (that was my problem area. after six months of weight loss i…
