I’m officially starting my keto reboot today, 11/3. My longest keto streak was 7.5 months. I was way off track for the past two weeks and I know how that happened and what to avoid this time. With keto I have reversed my T2D, but I also want to have success with losing weight & changing my body comp. This time, my goal is…

I just started Focus T25 yesterday. I found it appealing because it's only 25 minutes vs. 90 minutes like P90X. I think Beachbody has great workout programs as long as you're willing to do them. Even with doing P90X modified (several years ago) it made a huge difference in my muscles and body shape.

Name: Kristel Height: 5'9" Starting Weight (12/1): 199.8 Goal Weight (12/31): 189.0 12/8: 12/15: 12/22: 12/29: 12/31: Struggles or successes of the week: I'm getting back into the gym routine and loving it! The biggest struggle this week is that I'm not adding milk to my coffee and I've never before been able to drink…

I'm in! Hubby's company Christmas party is this Friday and I'm really looking forward to wowing everybody with my progress this year.

I have the BodyMedia Fit armband. It's similar to the BodyBugg and it's the same one that The Biggest Loser used a couple of seasons ago. I love it and it take all the guess work out of my day.

Energy level increased, pants were loose, and my confidence increased.

1. Chicken Breast 2. Tomatoes 3. Apples For the ones in the house that are less focused on healthy eating, we also have: 1. Pizza Rolls 2. Tortilla Chips 3. Cream Cheese (to mix with Picante Sauce and dip the chips in)

I definitely see a difference in your face! Congrats on the success thus far!

I love feeling my ribs and my pelvis! I can actually feel my skeleton now that I've got less padding and it's pretty neat! Oh, and I love touching my triceps and my collar bones. I love the fact that I have collar bones and my triceps are more defined. I still have a long ways to go, but it's all about loving yourself.…

I'm down for training "together". I'm running a 5k on May 10, and have signed up for a half-marathon in October. I'm following an 18 week training plan for my half, but have started it already so that I can allow myself time for bad days, injuries, bad weather, and allow myself to repeat a week if I am not ready to move on…

I just put 2 handsful of kale and/or spinach, 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 cup of frozen berries (or frozen banana), and 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder into my blender and enjoy my green smoothie for breakfast.

I do, because I know that if my weight goes up during that time it's usually because I've seriously decreased my water intake. If I keep myself at 3-4 liters each day (my usual goal) I tend to not gain weight.

I'm sold! Next step: Pick a race and get the hubby on board. Currently he's afraid of me getting hurt so I'm hoping that as I train and show him how strong I'm getting he'll calm down a bit.

If I do it, I'm pretty sure my 15 & 13 yo daughters will want to join me. That would make it more fun for sure.

One of the ones I was looking at is lozilu, and the date is actually April 12. I'm still checking to see what my options are, but I think it would be FUN! I know that training for the run would be more motivation than just training to keep losing weight. Also, I love accomplishing goals.

Never say, "I only lost xx weight". You're accomplishing something by losing anything. It's hard to see how far we've come because we're always looking at how far we've got to go still. I believe you will have a great year ahead of you and you're going to make yourself proud. :) I happen to think that you have rock star…

I'm actually looking to lose 120-135 pounds total. I've lost 28 so far and have found the journey to be easier with friends who are active on MFP. Feel free to add me :)

Refuel in between :) Best of luck!

Determined. I think another description of you should be Super-Hero. Especially for your kids. You are inspiring so many people on MFP, but just think of the encouragement you are going to be for your own kids. Teach them now to have a healthy relationship with food and exercise. My kiddos are a bit older and I'm having to…

I'm in! Starting 1/7. 1.73 miles down.

I usually go for a quickie in the morning. I don't get time to have a long, slow, hot one very often. When I do think I have time, hubby inevitably decides that it's time for us to go somewhere or watch a movie. /sigh

Inspiring!

Serious...seriously cool :)

I'm getting T25 this afternoon (secondhand) and plan on starting it on Monday. I will be modifying and I will also be working the C25K program. I've got a long road ahead of me. Tuesday is my 3 month mark for my weight loss journey and I'm almost at my 10% goal. I've been using P90X (also modified) but don't always have…

The way you took the pics, it seriously looks like you replaced the wheelchair with the running shoes!

You are a hero in my book! I'm proud of you for what you've achieved. I can't wait to hear more about how you're doing. Such an inspiration!

Dances With Wolves

Woohoo! You rock! :bigsmile:

Fantabulous! I'm so happy for you, and I loved reading how excited your husband was with you!

The way I see it, the day you were no longer with him you lost 100+ pounds of weight that had been holding you back! Proud of you for that loss! Nobody has the right to stand in your way.
