I lost 80 lbs before I got pregnant, and my little booger is 6 weeks this Wednesday so I started my diet and workouts again today. I have 60 to lose to be at my ultimate goal. What I did was calorie count, Drink half my weight in ounces of water, and cut out majority of processed foods/Sweet tea and soda... Steamed veggies…

Thanks so much to everyone for your encouragement!!! You would be surprised how many negative Nancy's there are out there!! I cant wait to reach my goals and go to MEPS! Its going to be well worth it!! <3

I weigh every morning... It helps me keep myself accountable.

Im 66 inches tall, and at 267 lbs I was an 18-20 (depending on the brand) and now at 205, I can squeeze into some 12s, but Im mostly in a 13-14. Im fairly muscular, and it doesnt help that I have 15 lbs of boob, but hey, you work with what you can lol

I did a similar rant and rave on this very topic before. Im trying to lose my weight to join the military... and I had people being extremely negative towards me, saying that the military wouldnt want someone who used to weigh 270 lbs and all kinds of garbage.. Ive had people point out to me that I weigh a lot, and Ive…

Thanks everyone! I'm very familiar with a lot of military life (my family and several ex's have been in) but when it comes to the recruiting process, I'm clueless!!

Youve been one of my biggest inspirations and my biggest cheerleader <3 Youve set a wonderful example for me and Ill forever be grateful for you!

Thank you!! I am on the elliptical and treadmill almost everyday, and I do lots of situps and pushups. Im focusing on all things needed to help me make it through bootcamp.

I dont understand it either. I tried eating my calories back and I felt more tired and didnt lose weight. I think some peoples bodies need it more than others... Fat is stored energy... so why not eat enough to get by and any extra be takin from my butt or thighs?! lol

I'm in the club too. I was a dancer and competitive cheerleader for 8 years so my legs are wicked muscular... I'm wondering how on earth ill fit in combat boots if they don't shrink some!!

Ive been on here since february.. I did really good, lost like 15 lbs- then I kept dancing between 245-250 for the longest time... I started a stressful job, life in general just got crazy, and my mind wasnt in the right place. Its been here in the last 3 weeks that I decided to give it my all and see how far I can go. Its…

Yes! Its so frustrating! I weigh like 6 times until I get the same number a few times lol

I love how its ok to be an A-hole in the name of being brutally honest! Just saying!! Theres a way to tell the truth, a way to not leave things sugar-coated... Its called having tact. Something a LOT of people lack on this site. If you cant be nice and supportive, or give information thats CORRECT in an informative way,…

Mine was a culmination of things- When I go out with the girls, I used to always get approached... at my highest it was just creepy older men... now I get a few cuties who dont mind some curves lol...I moved back home from California and I decided that I HAD to do something with my life...I was 267 and hating myself.. I…

I find it so funny that this should be a safe haven for those of us trying to better our lives, and some people either forget what it was like to be stuck in a rut, or in general are just insenstive A-holes. You need to find something to help you focus... Either a picture of a beautiful pregnant belly on your fridge, or…

Im so glad yall are way better at math than me!!! <3 I appreciate the help!

See, I figured someone would be smarter than me at the math part! But for the record, I know I was reaching out to have a question answered, but I think we all need to remember that we are ALL on this site for a reason. Theres no reason to be harsh- I know that I need to CONTINUE to lose weight. Thats a no brainer. Im just…

Jim- I know it takes up more space- I don't know why I went back to that old, incorrect addage. My weight loss goal was 90lbs in the begining. Im down 25 of it, but my concern is if I really need to lose that much, since I am built with a lot of muscle. Correct my math if its wrong, but 241 x .44= 106.04. So I would…

Facebook is now my red headed stepchild lol

WOW :) Youre super inspiring!

Do an inch above your belly button! Thats what Ive always been told anyway :)

that looks like WAY MORE than 31 lbs!! Great job!

Are you drinking enough water? Fatigue and headaches are often caused by dehydration...

Non Scale Victory!

There is an option for weight lifting in the Cardio, scott... Idk if that will help or not!! But I know that when I do the 30 day shred, I log it as curcuit training. And thats been fairly accurate compared to some of my friends that weigh about the same and have heart monitors.

Get the App on your phone!!!!!!!

Welcome!! This place is awesome!!

Awesome :) Most days Im trying to talk myself into a positive attitude lol but Im glad it helps!!

WOOHOO :) Im all for doing that! Ive deleted pictures, emails and phone numbers and am focused on me!!!! Now if I accidentally send a picture of me all thin and hot in a few weeks, well I guess that just cant be helped :) You have to love you before anyone else can... I took the long way around to figure it out but now I…

Im in Central Florida.. I dont know if that helps?! lol
