I've lost 60 lbs, maintained it for over a year and a half and during the last 2 1/2 years, I've still eaten cake, bacon cheeseburgers, chips, cookies, etc... I figure as long as I eat healthy foods the majority of the time, it's all good. If I couldn't still have the foods I enjoy every now and then, there's no way I…

Your hats are very cute! I'm mostly a knitter. I can crochet but it takes me forever because I'm not very good at it. Here's a blanket I crocheted for my niece. I swear it took a million years. lol
-
Awww! How sweet! I totally regret that I didn't get into knitting/crochet until my daughter was like 9. I'd have made the cutest baby things for her. lol
-
I've made a lot of things but the most recent thing I made that i really liked was a pair of fingerless mitts for my daughter. There's also a group here if you're interested. It's gotten kinda slow lately though. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/178-fitter-knitters-and-crocheters

Cute! I've seen pics of those on babies and it's adorable.

Before I started dating my husband I liked a guy who was a bit shorter than me (I'm 5'6"). I didn't date him but only because he never asked me out. If he had, I definitely would have said yes. Height isn't a deal breaker for me. If I were single, my criteria would probably be more along the lines of how much a guy could…

Said I was 12.5% smaller and an hourglass. lol No.

8:30 ish is the best I can do if I really push it. That's probably as fast as I'll ever get and I'm cool with that. I hate running too much to push for more.

I reallllly hope I look that awesome when I'm in my 60's. :smile:

You upload the photo somewhere (I use picasa). Then you copy the address of the picture and paste it between these tags [ img] [ /img] (take out the space after the [ though).

I'm currently working on a blanket, which is not such a great summer knit. Lol. it is a baby blanket though. I started it thinking it would go to the navy/ marine corps relief society, but they said they have too many knitters/crocheters so it will probably go to project Linus.

My sister was really into lifting and would get told she had 'scary man arms' (she didn't). I will feel I've achieved success the first time someone tells me that. :laugh:

I lost 60 lbs that way and have now maintained that loss for a year and a half. I did start lifting after I lost the 60 lbs, but that's also something I do at home.

I tend to knit/crochet a lot of market bags in the summer.

Rock/metal. The angrier, the better. Disturbed is excellent workout music.

Friday I had Jack in the Box for breakfast, Five Guys for lunch, jalapeno cheetos for a snack, bbq wings, mac and cheese and copious amounts of alcohol for dinner. Yesterday we went to a baseball game and I had hot dogs, peanuts, coke and cotton candy. Today, I'm back to it. No guilt. I figure as long as I keep trying,…

http://www.emilybites.com/ has a lot of good recipes.

Was trying to see if I could help but they didn't show up for me either.

I usually just have a regular soda, but if I'm craving one and don't really want to use the calories on it, I'll have Diet Dr. Pepper with a squeeze of lime. I also like Diet Cherry DP and Zevia cream soda.

I can never get earbuds to stay in. These are the only ones I've found that work for me. http://www.amazon.com/JVC-HAEBX85Z-Inner-Sports-Headphone/dp/B003JZ2JZ2/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1370204182&sr=8-13&keywords=jvc+headphones I like them because the part that hooks over the ear is soft and flexible. I find the hard…

Yup.

I live in San Diego. It's beautiful, the weather doesn't get too cold or too hot (usually) and there's a lot to do.

I don't know if my butt is exactly "wonderful" yet, but considering I'm still a lot closer to obesity than to a "normal" weight, I'm pretty pleased with what squats have done for me.

I started at 234. I lost 60 lbs by doing Jillian Michael's DVDs (probably 6 days a week) and c25k (5 days a week). I've been stuck around 174 for quite a while but doing some serious lifting did get me from a size 12 to a size 10.
-
<Started out using 3 lb weights while doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. I moved up to 5s, 8s and 10s once I felt the previous weight was no longer a challenge. After about a year doing mostly Jillian DVDs and running, I started heavy lifting. Do what you can, when you can.

That's awesome and you have every right to feel proud of it! Once I was having ankle discomfort and was moving my leg around trying to stretch it out and noticed a large lump on my shin. I was like, "WTF is that?!" I called my husband over to look at it and he laughed and said, "That's a muscle, dummy." :laugh:
-
I did. And so did my lazy-*kitten*, never-gets-off-the-computer, can't-run-at-all teenager. She finished it.
