Wow! What a transformation! That is amazing!

I'm starting over again too. I gained a lot of weight back after our home was struck by a tornado last year...the day after Christmas. We're finally back in our house and things are starting to return to normal. It's too hot in Texas to be this dang big! I'm ready to get rid of the weight!

Coughing was nearly my only exercise this week.

Ha! Yep! Sounds just like me!

@tlh0407‌- If I could buy it I would, but it's not financially possible for me at this time.

@kah68‌- in my opinion that trainer sounded like he was drunk texting. He sounds extremely unprofessional. His problems should not be your problem. There's 2 kinds of people you're not supposed to be buddy buddy with and that's your kids and your clients. If it was me I'd be questioning why his client quit in the first…

It's Friday the 13th. I'm not very superstitious, but I will say this day is sure off to a crappy start. Tax office put the wrong routing number on my tax return....again. Waiting on a phone call to find out how I'm supposed to get this desperately need money. I had nightmares so that's always nice and weird. The kind…

@kapansm‌ great job talking yourself out of that junky stuff! You should be super proud!

thank you she did so well today during therapy! She can walk short distances between 2 people now! I'm a proud mommy!

Thank you so much for the birthday wishes! I had a pretty good day! Sunday will be better though. My husband is taking me out to eat seafood. My absolute fave! @Tanya I completely understand what you're going through. I went through the same thing with my childrens' doctor. Lots of BS and no answers. In December of 2013,…

Today is my 31st birthday and I lost a half pound (no thanks to Aunt Flow). Not a bad way to start a birthday! My daughter had ST yesterday, OT today, PT and SST on Friday. This is every week by the way. I don't think I've mentioned it before. I feel really overwhelmed sometimes. Exercising has been a great stress…

Thanks everyone! I figured y'all could use it! That place is called Briarwood Park in DeSoto, Texas. I was going to take some pics of the ducks and the pond, but there were a ton of people over there taking pics for a quincinera. Lots of people go there to take prom pictures and wedding photos. I'm glad y'all enjoyed them…

Some pictures from today's walk! If I did this right that is....

@kelmomto3‌ thanks! I really appreciate that and also welcome! I'm a newbie here too. I have 2 little girls ages 2 (next month!) and 3. My 3 year old was just walking around with her doll telling her it's time to work out. Lol

B) these boots were made for walkin' and that's just what they'll do....sorry, I couldn't help myself!

Thank you so much! I think if we continue to be honest with ourselves about our mistakes we will get there! You're awesome! I like that you keep fighting for it! ALSO.....

@melifornia‌ Aww thanks! That's very encouraging! @cblue315‌ I agree with Melifornia. I think it could help. It helps to have another set of eyes,or ears as the case may be. Kind of like proof reading homework for things you might have missed.... if that makes any sense. ☺️

I had just the opposite problem. I wasn't having periods at all !(going to be 31 in a few days) I started intermittent fasting and now I'm having regular periods! This has been a problem for me since starting puberty! Seriously! When I got pregnant the first time I didn't figure it out until I was 6 MONTHS PREGNANT! I mean…

Tootin' my own horn today! I've reached my first mini goal this morning of losing 20 lbs! My second mini goal is to get to one-derland! 5 more pounds and I'll finally be under 200! :D Sadly, this time last year, I was already in one-derland at 189 lbs and that was as far as I got. I failed because of self sabotage. I…

@grandmakaye44‌ I personally prefer coconut flour over wheat. I tried it once and I was hooked! The reason they're saying not to eat wheat/grains is because of 2 reasons. The first one is phytic acid. Phytic acid keeps your body from absorbing nutrients and they actually call it an anti nutrient. It keeps you from…

@susan2396‌ glad I could put a smile on your face!

My scale did that last week and it turned out to be the battery.

Maybe you could substitute some of the ingredients for healthier options? I've been doing a lot of paleo baking lately and I have to toot my own horn for a minute and say OMG YUM. Last night I made banana raspberry nut bread using coconut flour and the recipe called for 3 eggs. I used 2 and an overripe banana. I also added…

Despite being sick and not really exercising I still managed to lose 2 pounds this week so it wasn't a total bust! Goals for February: 1.) Mutu System Core #1 exercises 2X everyday. 2.) Mutu System Intensive workout #1 4X a week. 3.) Daily Burn True Beginner 3X a week. 4.) Walk for 30 minutes everyday. 5.) Stay 100…

Dat gummit! It cut me off again! Thank you @teresa3266 and @skinnyjeanzbound. @RobinsEgg good luck with your surgery. @ereilly311 and @maram29 congrats on your weight loss!

Thank you for the kind comments!

I had a friend like that too. I would call her and she'd say she would be there in an hour or whatever, but she would almost never show up. The times she did show up she'd spend the entire time talking to someone else on her phone or complain about my dogs trying to sniff her. Other times she'd show up, then someone she…

I didn't meet any of my exercise goals this week. I was just too sick. I feel a little bit better today so I will try to do some light exercise. I did manage to eat under my calorie goal and I lost 2 pounds this week for a total of 18 pounds lost! NSV- I have this super cute pair of shorts I bought when I lost weight the…

@MaryPoppinsIAint‌ - I'm glad you're getting better! I'm a stay at home mom and I have 2 girls, 2 and 3 years old. We're all sick, but the worst is over. It's weird how Monday I felt like I could take on the world. Tuesday comes and we get hit like a freight train...a fever and vomit filled freight train

I love roasted butternut squash! It's my fave! Wow! Never thought I'd say/type that!
