I have used this site on and off for about 5 years now. In 2013 I lost one pound shy of 50. I was down to 132. I am back up to 165 and I need to get back in gear. I am 5' 7" and like I said 165 lbs. My goal is to lose 25 lbs. Feel free to add me (anyone) I need all the motivation I can get!

I believe it is time for me to be accountable, gained 25 lbs over the last year and would like to NOT get another winter 20...Count me in if there is still room!

I would go with option 2! My husband and I went to Mexico for our honeymoon years ago, it was awesome! We did an all-inclusive as well. The food was not bad. They actually made more American entrees over Mexican entrees. They had lots of activities going on and then you could also sign up for additional activities. We did…

Thank you everyone! Great suggestions. I guess I am unsure that the co-worker is trying to be mean. I will for sure say something clever the next time she says something (at least weekly). Again, sorry for the rant, I just get so frustrated sometimes. I am glad (sorry) that I am not the only one in this boat!

I LOVE cheese!!! I am a former (born and raised) WI girl and here in AZ....the cheese SUCKS!! I miss good old cheese, fresh cheese, right form the Diary in WI. :sad:

My Alpha does not work but I am coming to the end of my second week of Beta! You can add me as well!

I tried to attached the lady's thread that had the eggplant pizzas. That sounds good, I have some eggplants going bad...I am not a fan of them and seem to be stumped when coming up with preparation ideas. Do tell your secrets!!

You look great! Keep up the hard work!

I love brown rice and cook it at least twice a week! 2 cups of water to 1 cup of rice Never use oil, I always use a teaspoon of real butter When the water is brought to a boil, I dump the butter and rice in, I let it get back to a boil, and then cover and turn the stove down to a simmer. about 40-50 minutes cook time. I…

Bump - YUMMY!

I can control my depression with out having to take medication. I feel down and out when I don't exercise, for me, even a walk helps pep up my spirit!

I would have to say about 25 lbs is when I started getting comments on my weight loss.

I never thought about the protein powder. I bet that is good!

My OLD story: I don't have time... My NEW story: I make time, if I have to drag the kids kicking and screaming on a mile walk to get in some exercise, I do! (They might complain but it is good for them to get out too, and they do enjoy it...sometimes :laugh: )

I have lots of things that motivate me. This is my second round of trying to get into a healthy lifestyle. I have to be ready, or I will fail. This time around, I out grew all of my clothing....I was depressed...I felt miserable...It was time to make a change! I have battled depression most of my adult life, I struggle…

I love the that program! I have done it twice, both times seeing many results, I was impressed with the strength that I gained as well. I was just thinking about starting the program again with my T25. Good Luck!

I have, it is do-able (but not fun), I like to be at 1300-1400, I am happy then and satisfied and my family is happy because mom isn't acting like a monster. It is a win win :blushing: .

I have used the Nike + Running app on my I-Phone. I love this app. It is a free but you can pay for a full version. The free portion suits my needs just fine. :)

That is amazing!! Way to go! Congrats!

Is it to late to join? Monday brought week one challenge to an end for me...I have started to plateau so I really need to get my booty in gear. CW: - 151.8 GW - 146 by May 1 GW - 140 by June 1 GW - 135 by July 1 GW - 130 by August 1 Final...130, I would like to maintain this weight for life! I have two weddings in October…

I have lost about 20 lbs in three months. I walk two miles 4-5 days a week, some times more some times less. And clean eating.

I usually make a big pot of it on Sunday and I portion it out, depending what I am making it with. I eat a lot of brown rice, just plane, with spaghetti sauce, with tuna, etc... I usually do brown rice for my lunches for the week, so it goes right into the storage containers and right to work. If there is extra I portion…

I have lost about 34 pounds and have gone from an almost B to a negative A....why oh why do my boobs have to be the first to go :sad:

I love to use cottage cheese as dressing on my salads (I don't like dressing). I also use it to top my baked potatoes. :)

No, I like men :) But....you are cute!

You are amazing!! Congratulations to you and good luck on the second half of your adventure!

I think it all depends on how a person carries the weight. I am a 5'7, 35 year old, at 135 I look anorexic. I look normal 155 - 145. I would love to see 155 and I would be overjoyed!! :) Again, I do believe that it really depends on your body type. Way to go so far and good luck the rest of the way!!

:blushing: No one?

Grew up in NW Wisconsin, recently relocated to SW Arizona....it is hot here!
