I'm attempting my first 5K in October and could use motivation and friends for weight loss and encouragement. Add me too :)

167 oz. per day, more on days I exercise or strength train

that is marvelous, you look GREAT!!

Thanks so much for the great info! You provided some new information I hadn't been aware of (especially the lactose intolerance, I hadn't thought to watch for that!). So far, going gluten free has been the easy part. The hard part has been knowing every day what is normally, what I should worry about, whether the nasty…

Well I'm new to this site, but your comments struck a nerve. Certainly it is not ALL about looks, age or hotness, but there is certainly bias. The fact that the respondents comments to you regarded her dress (which sounded to me like reasonable requests from a manager) indicates that she hasn't been in a situation in which…
