Julianna in southern Maryland here. Love seeing the before-and-after transformations! I have arthritis in my spine. It's a real pain in the neck! According to my doctor, "For every pound of excess weight, it adds seven pounds of pressure on your spine." Enough said. That's my motivation to log my food intake, take frequent…

Julianna in historic southern Maryland. Lots of muscle and physical strength for a little Grandma! But it is time to get lean, lose the fat around my mid-section, and regain the energy before menopause! The vegetable garden is fully planted and will be producing green beans and tomatoes shortly. There's a bed of salad…

5'1" currently down to 127 lbs; striving to lose 12 more. Using Intermittent Fasting (IF), the ratio 16:8. Sixteen hours of fasting, eight hours to consume 1200 calories.

I live in the country, too. We can have a brisk run in fresh air when otherwise we are waiting for an available treadmill at the gym. We can pop-in a favorite workout DVD and not worry about taking someone else's "spot" in the cardio class. We can change into training gear without a stranger catching a glance. Most…

2017 Resolution: Sneak-in a short youtube cardio workout or yoga routine when the office empties at 4:00 pm. 2017 Goals: Weigh less (or maintain current weight) at the end of each month. Cheers, and God bless ya'll real good in 2017, Julianna from southern Maryland.

Good luck to us all. Cheers!

Your healthy weight is also your happy weight! Bravo.

Two Ball Park hot dogs, cut into 1-inch pieces, a couple of toothpix, and a few packages of mustard. A fine, low carb hors'deurve.

May the Lord hear your prayers, everyone! The Little Woman's Resolutions 1. Stop staring at the Lay-off notice -- and instead, search the job boards! 2. Enjoy a cup of green tea when I'm feeling down. 3. When I need a little something-somethin' (not a full work-out) pop in the Cold Start P90x warm-up. 4. When I crave a…

P90X Cold Start got me moving this chilly morning at 06:30!

Gorgeous, defined abs! Great curves. Many blessings

:flowerforyou: Congratulations on losing 8 lbs. I purchased a bottle of the new Hydroxycut Gummies. Stimulant -free. Sixty gummies for $20 on sale at Rite Aid. I have been chewing two gummies before every main meal. I'm usually lazy, but Hydroxycut makes me feel like exercising. Popped-in a workout DVD and actually…

You've lost 26 pounds! That's great. You have inspired me to drink 6 glasses of water today, with a squeeze of lemon. May God Bless.

Congratulations on losing 9 pounds! Where do you fish (salt water or fresh water)? We fish in the river the feeds the Chesapeake, catch lots of croaker and an occasionally bass (Rockfish). god Bless.

congratulations on getting closer to your weight loss goal. Yes, I'll try just two bites of the rich decadent Buffalo Chicken dip.

Jester, good advice about taking a fasting day after a feast day. I have a brand-new JUICER, and several gourmet tea choices. Sunday is our big, fat, Italian Feast Day where the hunger doesn't resume until mid-day Monday. I'll be juicin' and sippin' tea. Best wishes.

Will do! I amped-up the amount of weights I use, and pushed myself another quarter mile on the treadmill.

I hear ye. It's about the long-term goals. Big feasts are only a handful of days per year.

What a great mantra. Absolutely the truth. May God bless you and keep you happy and healthy.

God bless, Lizzie Beth, and may you knock off those last two pounds in no time. Cheers to Willpower!

That Two-Bite Rule is how you lost an amazing 27 pounds! I will try it: Two bites of everything will be placed on my plate. if I co-worker balks, I'll say, "That's a balanced diet."

Congratulations on losing 35 pounds! Amazing. Good advice to mentally count the calories as we put them in our mouth.
